Oh PUH-LEASE!

Perkins. Really? Look, I'm not selling the guy short - but of late people have been acting as if he's the second coming of Wilt.
Bynum is - when healthy - a potential 20/10 guy.
And as you say - he was injured. And as I say, if he were healthy, he impacts the series just as much as Perkins - if not more so.

But the facts are that Celtics's frontline situation change during that series,the lakers's frontline situation was the same for all the games

That's the point,I'm not a Boston fan or a Lakers hater,but this is an objective fact

Pointedly, it's not an objective fact. An objective fact would be that Perkins did indeed get injured, and did not play. Anything else is purely speculative.

Pau Gasol performance in 2010 Finals
Game 1: 23 points,14 reb 3 assist
Game 2:25 points,8 reb 3 assist
Game 3:13points,10 reb 4 assist
Game 4:21 points,6 reb 3 assist
Game 5:12 points,12 reb 0 assist
Game 6:17 points,13 reb 9 assist
Game 7:19 points,18 reb 4 assist

First 5 game average:18,8 points 10 reb 2.6 assist
Last 2 games(without perkins) 18 points 15,5 reb 6.5 assist (-0.8pts +5,5 reb +3.9 ast)

And if you see boxscores of the games,each game was won by the team with the most rebounds.

Man,I see the difference,do you?



Coincidentally, each game was also won by the team that scored the most points.

Or... likewise: Andrew Bynum. Who was anything but healthy.

Please,stop talikng Bynum
In the key moment of the game,however Jackson would have preferred the Odom-Gasol duo...and however Bynum injuries were known and the same in the series,Perk was healthy the first 5 game and injured in the last two,so it change more for the Celtics than for the lakers


So basically you are saying that because the Lakers knew they would be without a healthy Bynum they had time to adjust their gameplan for the playoffs, whereas the Perkins injury in the finals was all of a sudden leaving no time for the Celtics to adjust. Fair?

If this is the case then the Celtics losing Perkins at this point gives the Celtics plenty of time to prepare for the playoffs without him. I think that whichever way you are leaning in this debate about Perkins is directly related to how talented you think Perkins is. Green is the better basketball player. I would rather have a bunch of better basketball players than the one dominant guy in a series personally.

Speaking of Melo to the Knicks.........

0-2 vs. Cleveland since the trade. Ouch

Maybe Byron Davis isn't done?

Yes,it is

Perk is not very talented,but is a good player and fit really well in celtics system,so losing a player with his carachteristics in that moment of the series was decisive last season.
This year is a whole different strory,Ainge think that the trade with OKC would leave celtics at the same level this year and will be an improvement in the next years,when green could improve to the expectations and learn celtics system,time will say if he make a good choice

I think Miami (and I cannot believe I'm saying this) have too much for NYK. And even tho' they're down now, I don't see them staying down (tho'... if they could see their way to losing 3 more games - I have a wager on them not getting 60 wins!).

I could see a Boston v Miami matchup in the ECF.
I'm rooting for Boston if this happens. The spotlights been on Miami this season, so I'm rooting for the, underdog,if you can call the Celtics that.

wait, what happened after the bulls-heat game...the heat players cried? ...rofl...............
