    WALTHAM - Until yesterday, if you Googled the words "injured toe," "furniture," and "Celtics center," you'd come up with Pervis Ellison dropping a coffee table on his foot in 1996. That caused the oft-injured Ellison to miss pretty much all of the 1996-97 season.</p>

    Kendrick Perkins only had his bed fall on his toe. But he might miss tonight's game against the Kings because of it. He didn't participate in yesterday's workout, though X-rays revealed nothing sinister.</p>

    "I guess whoever put my bed together didn't put it together right," Perkins told the Associated Press. "When I moved, one side of my bed fell. My bed was tilted, so I got out of my bed to go push down on the other side. And when I was about getting ready to push down on the other side, the headboard started coming in. So I tried to push the headboard back so it wouldn't fall over. My foot was under the bed and the other side of the bed fell on my foot."</p>

    "Perk's foot, a big toe injury, and that is a concern," said coach Doc Rivers. "Right now, I would say there's a very good chance we're going to be without Perk and Scot Pollard."</p>

    Pollard missed yesterday's workout with a bad back.</p>

    Should Perkins not go, it would be the first time this season Rivers has had to make a change in the starting lineup. The coach said he would start either James Posey, Brain Scalabrine, or Glen Davis at power forward and move Kevin Garnett to center.</div></p>

    "never in service Pervis". When he actually was healthy, he was pretty decent until the accumulation of injuries took it's toll.</p>

    Once, a motorcycle trailer fell on my toe. It turned all black and fell off in the blanket. The nail, not the toe. But anywho...I am not a fricken idiot or anything. I just try not to do it again. Perks a young dude. A little inexperieced with poorly assembled beds, but I dont think he is an idiot. You also have to take into account he is 6"10, 280lbs. It's rare for a man his size to be as graceful as say..."Toine, LOL!</p>
