The thing is Perk/Blatche aren't offensive liabilities. They will always take up a defender, and if not they can convert open dunks.
So yes they are "weak" comparatively but u can't judge a players role like that. I would much rather have Perk/Blatche than centers who are a good amount better than them but not nearly as good on defense. So while those centers are better than Perk/Blatche, they aren't better for my team.
I mean Perkins wasn't a weakness for the Celtics this year, he was actually a strength. Only commentators who didn't see Perk play that much thought that.
