At this point of the season, every team has injuries. Playoffs are about which team adjusts best to adversity, and the Lakers did. Oh, also, kobe played with a broken finger (his shooting hand) all year and struggled all game, but his teammates adjusted and finished the game strong for Kobe & the LakerNation.

kobe has had that injury all year and gotten used to it. it is now only a convenient excuse for when he doesnt show up. perkins sudden absence from the lineup isnt comparable. bynum might have been a better arguement, but even then they struggled when he wasnt in the lineup.

i doubt it was a coicidence that the lakers had their best rebounding, particularly offensive rebounding, night when the celtics biggest presence on the glass was injured.

just was commenting that you could have overcome even more deep emotional adversity for lakernation if perkins had been healthy....o well

as a rockets fan i think i can say that injuries usually do correlate pretty negatively with success
note...i am just being obstinate to rain on your parade
