LA lakers Vs. Boston Celtics so far

[Newtonslee]

I was reading a post on the celtics board and had this to say. what do you all think.

" this is a common missconception we make. missing KG is nothing compared to missing a Kobe.

1. first of all KG is a specialist not the go to guy who runs the team. the guy that runs the team in boston is rondo. next is paul pierce then it slightly KG over perkins when it comes to matters of the paint.KG is a defensive specialist, when he is not in it is your defense that suffer not ur offence. compare that to the absence of rondo, both your on ball defence and your offense will suffer and that is detrimental to your team. KG for boston is like a ron artest for lakers and not even a paul gasol.

2. So now imagine having kg, your defensive specialist(ala. Ron artest) missing about 5 games and paul pierce, one of your best all around players(ala. paul gasol) missing 16 of your games so far. and rondo, the guy that runs your offense (ala. kobe bryant) playing about 10 games with a bad back or sprained ankle or what ever injury it is that will limit how effective he either runs the floor as fast or make pass or simply go to the rim. above all imagine yourselves playing in a conference where the 11th team has a wining record and will have to play NJ nets just twice(lol i had to add this). now compare what your record would have been to what it is right now.

3.The truth is that the loss of KG is a huge blow but you have to stop using thaty every time. Remeber ppl took lakers to win because they though the had huge line ups in lamar, paul, and bynum that other team will have a hard time matching up against. loosing paul gasol means you dont have that advantage any more. that is when kobe started operting in the post to keep that advantage somewhat alive. this is what the celtics have to do. what ever KG was giving someone will have to give shades of that. i dont know about lakers eating the celtics alive , but lakers i believe is the best team. lakers bench is not bad at all beacause the bench goes as much as lamar goes and for about some 26 or more games, he has been a starter and not a sixth man. so lets c what the second half of the season has install for these teams."
