Lakers need to trade Kobe.....

[9erempiree]

As a first and foremost Kobe fan, unlike most band wagoners or those who are Lakers fan, I believe the Lakers should trade Kobe.

Since I am a fan, I think it's better served if he goes to a contender and help them win. His time with the Lakers are up and the team is definitely going in another direction. Now is the time to trade Kobe to a contender and in return the Lakers can get some young pieces while they rebuild.

I can think of 20 teams in the league right now, who would be instant contenders with the services of Kobe Bryant.

[Kiddlovesnets]

Kobe has no trade clause, he cant be touched unless hes traded to a title contender that he finds more intriguing than the Lakers.

Good point even then no team thinks about taking his half the salary cap contract.

[Myth]

Kobe has no trade clause, he cant be touched unless hes traded to a title contender that he finds more intriguing than the Lakers.

That shouldn't be hard, 2/3 of the league have a better chance of winning. Maybe Kobe would like to be traded to Utah or Milwaukie.

[TylerOO]

Miami doesnt want Kobe lol. He would make them much worse considering they'd have to trade a part of the Big 3.

[9erempiree]

Kobe has no trade clause, he cant be touched unless hes traded to a title contender that he finds more intriguing than the Lakers.

It just means he has to approve the trade. It can be any team, as long as he approves.

There are many teams on the brink of contending and Kobe will definitely fit the criteria.

[RoundMoundOfReb]

He could be 6th man in miami.

[9erempiree]

Milwaukee has got the #7 spot and they would definitely give the Heat and the Knicks a run with Kobe.

I don't mind that trade.

[scandisk_]

KOBE can jack all day with the Bulls. No need to play defense.

Yes, Detroit is just the supporting cast Kobe needs. Forget these scrubs he's playing with now.

[9erempiree]

I'm going to disagree. Miami would instantly do Wade and Kobe straight up.

Kobe's having the better season and not showing the strong decline of Wade. He can actually save himself like what Wade is doing.

Wade is better than Kobe nowadays, time to realize this simple fact.

KOBE can jack all day with the Bulls. No need to play defense.

7 Titles Baby

:pimp:

Bulls have the 5th spot and with the addition of Kobe, they will probably get the number 1 seed. He will definitely be an improvement in the back court and when Rose comes back, it will be hell for the East.

Rose and Kobe back court will be sick!

Definitely a championship with them.

[Celtic_Pride]

It's not possible. For a borderline playoff team to take on Kobe's contract, they have to send back atleast couple of their best players to match the salaries. So how will they be contenders with just Kobe and scrubs?

[9erempiree]

Yes, Detroit is just the supporting cast Kobe needs. Forget these scrubs he's playing with now.

Detroit is actually a pretty decent team considering how they are playing together and it's in the weak Eastern Conference. They are young and they play hard.

A player of Kobe's caliber can definitely take them deep into the playoffs.

Not a great team but good enough with Kobe.

[Celtic_Pride]

So who will the Bulls give up? Without Rose in the trade, there is no chance of Lakers entertaining any offers with Bulls and we know Chicago wont do that!

Teams don't have to gut their roster to match the trade. The bench will probably be depleted but the starting roster should not have to change much.

This is where the no-trade clause comes in affect. Kobe can veto the trade unless he thinks he can win with the team.

Seeing as how the Lakers organization is ran, they would possibly entertain any offers.

[Ken_Masters]

Bryant will never be traded under his current salary. No team will gut their entire roster in order to match salaries and trade for a guy who is well past his prime.

[9erempiree]

Bryant will never be traded under his current salary. No team will gut their entire roster in order to match salaries and trade for a guy who is well past his prime.

How about presenting some possible trade scenarios? I don't think a Kobe trade is possible without a team giving up atleast 2 of their 3 best players.

[9erempiree]

He did that to the tune of 5 championships. More players should do that...don't know why since it's so easy just chucking?

I disagree. He played within a system to the tune of a 3peat and even fed Shaq the ball.

A ballhog would not be able to play and win a 3peat.

It just seems like he's hogging the ball because he has to do so much this year. He's not carrying scrubs this year....he's freaking carrying Superstars. Superstar's burden weighs more than scrubs.

He wouldn't be a ring chaser. Ring chasers are guys that couldn't do it. Kobe's already proven.

Also, I wouldn't consider Kobe a ring chaser especially with the great season he's having.

He would actually be a the direct reason why a contender would win it all.

He would win another Finals MVP, that's not ring chasing.

I like the guy too much, I would just hate to root against him when he plays the Lakers. Besides, loyalty is way overlooked in legacies due to the cheap ass new era superstars. Hopefully Durant can be the exception to this rule.

[HardwoodLegend]

Kobe isn't proven to carry a team the way Dirk did in 2011.

He's always made the best out of a good situation though. Playing with Shaq Diesel and Pau Gasol & versatile 6th Man Lamar Odom.

LeBron and Kobe would be a match made in hell. The Lakers problems would be drastically reduced by this trade, though, because Wade-- except when he plays with someone who does it better like now-- is essentially a scoring point guard. A Wade/Howard p/r would be unguardale.

The Lakers problem with playmaking is that their point guard can't break people down off the dribble and get into the lane and their shooting guard is a playmaker. Wade is a playmaker who can break people down and get to the basket. Howard and Gasol would feast.

Dwyane Wade embodies unselfishness, quality teammate, and greatness. He doesn't care about labels, or winning it a specfic way like Kobe the wannabe Jordan, needing to be "the man", "go to scorer". Just winning.

Kobe sacrificed for Shaq because he had to(because Shaq was flat out better). But he hated it. Resented it. And he's admitied to as such.

Wade is the sole reason why Bron was comfortable with coming to Miami. Because he knew Wade(his good friend) would go out of his way to sure that it would be a smooth and seemless transistion in the long run. And Wade has done exactly that.

There is a difference btw "shooting" & "chucking"

LBJ will always pass to the hottest hand & not the "chucker"

Kobe is the latter (notice the amount of 25 footer kobe chucks).

thats how MJ, Bird, Magic & LBJ, the great play makers always operated.

If it wasnt the Paxon, it was Armstrong or Kerr

If it wasnt the Wade, it was Battier or Mario.

If it wasn't Mchale, it was Ainge.

The only way a team can acquire Bryant is after he is amnestied, which leaves the Lakers on the hook for a large portion of his remaining salary. I don't see any other way.

To be honest even if they could move him through some form of divine intervention with all he's done for the franchise I doubt they would do it. Kobe has always been and will always be a Laker until he retires.

If they traded him the pieces they get should be able to improve the Lakers record, but Kobe is not going anywhere.

Only way Kobe gets traded is if he asks to get traded which i cant see him ever wanting, he also wouldnt want to get called a ring chaser either (even though its exactly the same when you get Nash and Howard to come and join your team).

As a first and foremost Kobe fan, unlike most band wagoners or those who are Lakers fan, I believe the Lakers should trade Kobe.

Since I am a fan, I think it's better served if he goes to a contender and help them win. His time with the Lakers are up and the team is definitely going in another direction. Now is the time to trade Kobe to a contender and in return the Lakers can get some young pieces while they rebuild.
