[kennethgriffin]

ofcourse he can see himself making 40-50 million dollars per season playing in europe


duh



the nba is only about legacies to kobe. its not about the money. the minute he cant build on his legacy he'l retire from the nba and play soccer or basketball over seas

[SCdac]

would just drag his career down lower than he already has the past few years imo... imagine if he goes over there and looks average or is involved in some embarrassing losses... He seems like a relatively sharp/smart guy - as much as I've disliked him over the years, I'd MUCH rather listen to him than stupid ass Shaq on TNT

What's worse is he thinks Kobe could become a professional football player when he retires.

[FKAri]

It'll be Kobe's farewell tour. But since he's the GOAT it's gonna be global baby :rockon:

[Hey Yo]

I'd be shocked if he did sign on to play seriously for another league that's outside of the country.

didnt the basikta's offer kobe a 40 million dollar deal and his own stadium?

it wouldnt be as impressive. but it would drastically upgrade his basketball legacy

winning a ring in both the nba and europe as the main guy would be a great accomplishment. who else has done it

[sdot_thadon]

Can't lie it'd be pretty fun to watch him destroy overseas talent in his twilight just because none of the goat list has done it yet. That could actually add to his overall legacy.

or maybe because those other guys were more prone to ring chasing/taking pay cuts till age 40


while kobe would rather go over seas and be the man still and make 40 times as much money since ring chasing/role player rings are worth less than a euro league finals mvp

:lol

[kennethgriffin]

kobe would be like the wcw hulk hogan of the euro league


suddenly all the wwf/nba viewers would tune into euro league for the first time ever. probly get a tv deal on american cable tv


kobe could actually be the pioneer in globalization of the sport

[ihatetimthomas]

Professional bball careers are so short as is, why not maximize the amount of money you can earn while you still can? This is why I will never hate on vets who were stars but will sign min deals for as long as they can. You have to max out your ability to play and earn money while you can.

Kobes legacy is already set in stone, regardless if he ends his career over there or not. It wont add or diminish what he has accomplished.

[Jakeh008]

Idk much about oversees leagues but if possible I could see Kobe being given ownership of a CBA team and becoming a player/owner in China. for 5-10 Years.

Imagine if Yao played a game for his Sharks vs Kobe and his team.
Every person in China would give all their money to see that game.

[outbreak]

He could back up V-span with ~15 minutes a night.

Disagree. Conquering another pro league in his twilight would be impressive imo. I'm sure he'd do better than A.i. did. The biggest misconception about legacies is everyone is convinced you have to match another's accomplishments to be valid. Walking in another's shoes will never ever allow you to be greater than said person. It's about blazing your own trail , be the 1st someone not the the next anyone.

Yeah because we really held it against Michael when he came back to play for the Wizards. :facepalm I bet not many remember Jordan having the least efficient season in league history in his final year in the league.

No one will care about Kobe playing in Europe either. Why would anyone question the man if he can make 30/40 million a year playing a game he obviously loves? It's not even about his legacy anymore.

Heck if I was a professional basketball player and had a chance to increase my net worth while continuing to play the sport I love, I'd be all for it.

[Quickening]

30-40 million salary? More like 3-4 mill salary, the biggest salary in euroleague is like 9 mill.

Kobe getting 40? :lol

People in europe don't really give a fck about Basketball.

[Clifton]

I'd be shocked if he did sign on to play seriously for another league that's outside of the country.
Didn't he spend some of his childhood in Italy? Did his dad play in Europe?

I could see him playing a few more years in Italy. What I definitely *cant'* see is him allowing himself to play at a disadvantage to younger guys in the NBA because of age, just to stay in the L a few years longer... as soon as he reaches the point he can't score 20 every night, he's done.

I wouldn't mind NBA legends going to Europe for a few years and dominating. It might bring Euroleague and the NBA closer together. Fans at home would want to watch 42 year old Kobe score 20 a night, and they'd get exposure to Euroleague ball and Euroleague players in the process.

Well, Kobe has received 3 million to play 10 games for Italy before.
So who knows.

It's not so much about Kobe's current ability but more about the money he'd be bringing in for the team. He's a celebrity in Europe and Asia; and him playing overseas will only make basketball more popular out there.

It's a win-win.
If Kobe is offered 20 million pounds a season, that's close to 34 million American I believe. I think he'll be offered in the range of 15-20 to be honest.

[Sakkreth]

if will farrell can play for 10+ major league teams and record an out pitching. make contact hitting and make a play on a hit holding a runner at first. then kobe can go kick a ball around for publicity over in europe

You are truly retarded, or probably even an imbecile.

[HylianNightmare]

I'd love to see that

[SpanishACB]

he's said multiple times (one recently to) that he would like to retire playing for FC Barcelona, problem is, I can't see them paying him more than 1 million a year in the best case scenario.

[pastis]

if will farrell can play for 10+ major league teams and record an out pitching. make contact hitting and make a play on a hit holding a runner at first. then kobe can go kick a ball around for publicity over in europe

there ar eplenty of good street ballers with incredbile ball handling, dunks and shots. but are they on the nba level?
same goes for street footballer. or kobe. just because kobe can juggle a little bit with a ball doesnt mean he can play on the highest level.

[HurricaneKid]

This is an awful idea. In the NBA the players rule the roost. And a player like Kobe has more pull than almost anyone else. In Europe coaches rule with an iron fist (closer to how football is coached here). I don't know how he plays under those circumstances.

[Nick Young]

Euroleague has its new GOAT


I'm predicting 40 ppg, 50% shooting, 45% from 3.


The black mamba will go to town against these tiny 6'1 unathletic shooting guards and the shortened WNBA length three point line found in Euroleague.


Even Scalabrine shot 70% over there:roll: :roll: :roll:

Yeah, it would be cool to see the reverse of the Euro/MLS thing for basketball. Kobe clearly still has a soft spot for the culture over their given his childhood in Italy so I don't see why he wouldn't want to do a couple seasons over in Europe.

[HurricaneKid]

I bet not many remember Jordan having the least efficient season in league history in his final year in the league.


When he went 20/6/4 and shot .445 from the field? Did you see Kobe last year?

[West-Side]

When he went 20/6/4 and shot .445 from the field? Did you see Kobe last year?

22.1 FGA, 22.9 PPG on .416 is the season I'm talking about.

As bad as Kobe was last year; he still was more efficient. 22.3 PPG on 20.4 FGA.

But yeah, both had two of the most inefficient years in league history.
Jordan's is actual the least efficient, I remember even reading an article about it back in the day.

[Euroleague]

ofcourse he can see himself making 40-50 million dollars per season playing in europe


duh



the nba is only about legacies to kobe. its not about the money. the minute he cant build on his legacy he'l retire from the nba and play soccer or basketball over seas

No team is signing him to play soccer (STOP DOING DRUGS), and no team is paying him $40-$50 million when he can barely even run.

You are out of your freaking mind.

He might get something like $6.6 million for one season from Barca, since the President of the club said Kobe offered to play there, and that the club would take him. And that's the highest salary they are paying right now to anyone in the basketball team.

Sure, they could afford to pay $40-$50 million, but there is no way in freaking hell that Kobe would get more than the current max they are paying anyone.

Everyone knows he's a totally washed up has been.


The ONLY way he could get $40-$50 million would be if Nike paid him that to go play in Europe. No way in hell is any European team giving it to him. They all know he's a completely washed up has been that probably won't even last one month of the season.

[Euroleague]

Olympiacos offered him $83 million net income.

Besiktas never offered him shit you moron. They are a small club that is completely irrelevant, play in crappy 2nd and 3rd level leagues..........have no money (their entire budget is like 5 million euros).

You are a complete freaking idiot.

And if you think ANY team would offer him what Olympiacos did then.........you are smoking meth non-stop.

Maybe he could go play with Olimpia Milano for something like $5-$10 million for a season. He wants to live in Italy again, and Kobe's personal friends with the owner of that club, who also happens to be incredibly rich. And they play in Euroleague. They are a bad team, and never do jack shit, never have any serious ambitions or expectations.........unlike Barca that expects to do well, so they could afford to play a washed up has been minutes.

So maybe that would be the most realistic scenario.

Another option might be Reggio Emilio. They also are an Italian League club, and Kobe is also personal friends with the owner of that club. He knows the owner all the way back from when he was a kid and his dad was a manager in the club. And his dad has some pull in the club. That's a low level team and Kobe could probably just play there and jack shots all day, since losing would not matter to them. Only thing is, he would not get probably more than about $2 million I would say in a year with that team. And they don't even play at Euroleague level. They play in 2nd tier level of Eurocup.

But that might be better for Kobe to play in Europe's version of D-League. That's what Iverson did when he went to Europe. Go play in the 2nd tier league. And Iverson FAILED and BUSTED in Europe's 2nd tier league. So actually, the 2nd tier European league might be Kobe's best move. So maybe Reggio Emilio.

But I think he wants to play with Barca.

1. You claimed the exact opposite here about a thousand times when talking about Spanoulis.

2. If you think Kobe can lead a team to a Euroleague championship at this point in time, you are completely insane.

[Euroleague]

That isn't holding much of a standard.........

1. Odum - cut after 3 weeks of major suckage in Spanish League and Euroleague.

2. Iverson - cut after 2 months of major suckage in Turkish League and Eurocup (2nd tier European league).


This whole "washed up NBA stars go to Europe and dominate and totally destroy" thing that NBA only fans come up with is so much freaking bullshit.


It simply does NOT happen.

Although, I will say this, Ron Artest, to his credit, was like the 8th best player on an Italian Eurocup (European 2nd tier league) team last year.


The place for "washed up NBA has beens" is the Chinese Basketball Association, not any decent European league.

[Euroleague]

30-40 million salary? More like 3-4 mill salary, the biggest salary in euroleague is like 9 mill.

Kobe getting 40? :lol

People in europe don't really give a fck about Basketball.

Exactly. Some people here are completely delusional. If this was Kobe at age 30, then maybe. But no way in hell now. If LeBron or Durant, or someone like that wanted to play in Europe, then maybe. Kobe? No.

Kirilenko got $8 million last year in CSKA. And let's be honest here, Kirilenko could actually physically still perform (if he wanted to), he's just lazy as hell and mentally did not want to play anymore.

Kobe can't really perform anymore. Every time he steps on a court he could suffer a career ending injury at any second.

So he's no way in hell worth the money Kirilenko got. It's just the fact.

To get the kind of money people are talking about it would have to be something like when Beckham came to MLS and sponsors like Nike paid his salary. Because there is no reason for teams in Europe to do it.

And if people think "Kobe will fill arenas and generate TV revenue and merchandise" and all that.......he's not covering any 30-40 million.

[Euroleague]

Didn't he spend some of his childhood in Italy? Did his dad play in Europe?

it's a money thing, 30-35 (which is like NBA's 35-40) washed up stars get to keep their 10 million a year salaries while playing for americans or arabs, a salary they would never get in a respectable football league because they simply do not cut it physically anymore.

Also David Beckham was never nothing more than a glorified free kick taker and an average player, surely Americans know this much?

i think kobe would average ike 18ppg in Euroleague over the season.

every little travel is getting called. kobe would make lots of offensive fouls as well. he would be in serious foul trouble if he doesnt adjust his game.

euroleague is not an isolation superstar league, its a spurs team game league. you doesnt have many players shooting 18-20 times on the basket.

and again: you are really underestimating top 16 euroeague teams. Berlin who normally never sniff top 16 euroleague air defeated spurs while spurs having their stars with like 30mpg.
it was just a training game, but for both teams. berlin was in preparation for the upcomming season as well

There is not a chance in hell Kobe at age 39, after a full Achilles tear, and a knee surgery, is averaging 18 points a game in Euroleague.

He would have to be a super human to do something like that. He isn't. Your estimation is wildly unrealistic.

I wonder if he still entertains this idea or if he's calling it quits for good. If so, he seems like a decent speaker and I'd rather see him get into commentating than become a coach right away (not that dude can't retire now if he wanted but I'm sure he'll stay productive)
