Bynum was STILL injured this year, and its not like Perkins was out the entire series, just a game and a half. Perkins made the inside tougher sure, but Wallace gave the Celts another offensive threat, so you take the good with the bad.
Regardless, there may or may not be another matchup of these teams (i hope there is), but i dont think i'd compare the loss of Andrew Bynum for the entire series of 08 to the loss of Perkins D and gain of Wallace's O for a couple games in 2010.
