Has anyone took less money to play with kobe after he sunk LA in the 04 finals?

[Im so nba'd out]

Can't think of anyone who took less money to play with him after what he did in 04 finals + quitting vs the suns game 7

Jordan Farmar last season, but I think that had more to do with the Laker organization and being back in the NBA. :lol
We have players like Gasol and Howard taking pay cuts to get away from Kobe though. :applause: :oldlol:

Lets be real, if Kobe was drafted to Milwaukee no would come to play with him.

They only want to play for the Lakers

[Yao Ming's Foot]

Nope... he doesn't take less in order to compete for championships and nobody wants to play with him.













still won 5 championships...

:confusedshrug:

[WeGetRing2012]

Ron Artest
Derek Fisher could have left for more money


Thats all I could really think of. Kobe doesn't need discount players though

[SpecialQue]

But I thought Shaq did all the carrying? Surely if Kobe was stinking it up Shaq should have won the championship single-handedly like he did all the others, right???????

[kennethgriffin]

so now we laugh at players for not getting enough help or cheap ring chasers ?


i thought it was the other way around


saying nobody wants to help kobe ( then he goes out and wins 2 more ships in 3 straight finals )

this is a compliment

Lamar Odom

[dreamwarrior]

Nick young sort of did. He opted for FA for a huge pay raise but ended up taking less money than he was worth to stay with L.A.

[SexSymbol]

Young, Farmar, Odom, Fisher, Artest
A lot of players when you think about it

[Dragic4Life]

Join that guy and not get the ball? Nah.

[AintNoSunshine]

Nope... he doesn't take less in order to compete for championships and nobody wants to play with him.

Thank Dr. Buss for handed it on a silver plate for him, had the most dominant front court in the league everytime he wins

So "dominant" front court players do in fact choose to play with him now???

[GimmeThat]

the last CBA. got teams overpaying players every offseason.
but you know, a lot more about seeing how a piece fits into your team
than spending the money the right way.

[FPJ]

I think Malone took less but to play with Kobe's ... :D

[ImKobe]

So, no one in the world wanted to play with Kobe, yet he still led a team to 3 straight championship series and won two of them?

GOAT status. Lebron got all the help in the world and everyone loves him but he's 2/5 while Kobe doesn't give a f and is 5/7

[rule1223]

wait so kobe can win with whoevers willing to play with him while lebron is out actively recruiting the best players in order to just compete, and ur acting like its an insult lmaooooo

[Jlamb47]

Atleast Kobe making his money like he should be
on the other hand Lebron taking less to play with other superstars

[riseagainst]

people in this thread are funny.
First they say no one wants to play with Kobe, then they say Jerry Buss gave Kobe the most dominant front court of all time. So do they want to play with Kobe or not?
Yao Ming's foot just ethered all those people here.
