Not sure how you arrived at that analysis. Tristan is ~slightly above average NBA player; Perkins is super AIDs. Tristan is a great offensive rebounder and solid defender. I guess you could call Perk a solid defender in his prime but he is so bad offensively and super AIDs in the playoffs after the big 3 left/retired and when he went to OKC. OKC and Brooks for years would play the guy when I think a guy off the street would have been more effective than him. Cavs Orat with him on the court is pretty great (he was first in the league 2 seasons ago) and it's traditionally been very much above 100 (120+) while Perkins has traditionally been below 100 for much of his career despite some awesome teams/teammates.
