Friendly reminder Kobetards/GSW excusers:

[KirbyPls]

KG missed the 2009 postseason after mollywhupping the Lakers by 39 in game 6 in 2006 ; and

Perkins missed game 7 in 2010, when it still took 20 FTs in the fourth for 12thbe to eek out a win on his own floor after 6-24.

The excuse meme is pathetic.

Bron > Kobe, now and forever.

lakers were without bynum and ariza in 2008 and you want to talk about kendrick perkins? lmao. also speaking of free throws leon powe shot more free throws than the entire lakers team in game 2 of the finals in 2008. the celtics shot 30 more free throws than the lakers that game.

2009: best Celtics player out;
2010: Perkins out

P.S.: Over the last several years Kobe fans on ISH have repeatedly called Bynum and Odom trash, so no harm, no foul right? It shouldn't take a 25 FT quarter for the Lakers and their second best player, 12thbe, to close out a battered Celtics squad, right?

Lebrons career is built on excuses so please just shut up with your weak troll sh!t

[JebronLames]

Kobe stans just got rekt

[ArbitraryWater]

Obviously.. is 2009 the only time ever the best player from the defending champs was out in the playoffs and thus altered the outcome (besides Walton)?

Im not counting Duncan '00 here, since they won the previous year largely because of the lockout.

And Kobe wasnt even the best player on his team
