Please, how am I a homer? Cause im basicly saying if Kobe did that in LA, he could probably do that in Memphis? If anyting, im saying Kobe is a incredible player. Im not a homer, so calm the F*ck down.</div> Everyone on BBW is realizing your just a stupid homer. It's getting annoying.
I got excited, I was over exaggerating. That doesn't make me a homer...please. And I admitted I exaggerated. It doesn't make me a homer.

I seriously wouldn't want Kobe with Detroit and there's about 0% chance that'll happen so I'm happy. I don't think LA will trade him but if he do it could get interesting. I don't really want to see him come out east but he does it'll be good for a change I guess. I don't think he'll go to chicago, Gordon and Nocioni isn't enough and plus Nocioni ain't so young and his contract is up I believe. I think Atlanta, Boston, Portland, Memphis with Gasol, and even Charlotte may have some nice pieces. LA won't get equal talent back because its Kobe but they're trying to rebuild and I think they'll do what's good for them to rebuild, sort of like what Philly did with moving AI. Joe Johnson, Marvin Williams, 3rd pick for Kobe???Gerald Wallace, Adam Morrison, Sean May, some cap fillers and 2007 pick for Kobe???Al Jefferson, Gerald Green, Delonte West, Wally (cap filler), 5th overall pick for Kobe???

Unlike most members trade ideas, yours make sense cap wise.
Chauncey is out of contract...Chauncey + Rip for Kobe?maaaaaaaaybe. If things don't go right for the Pistons against the cavs, you never know what crazy moves Joe D will pull.
Spoiled assholes. First AI, now kobe, probably KG. You signed the contract, play it out you stupid bastards.
He will probably be traded to a Eastern Conference team. Theres Charlotte like ^he saidChicago Bulls defiently have the players to get him.Toronto, Philly or Orlando probably cant get him.Bucks probably could, but that means Bogut and Redd will both be gone.

You think it's tough to be mediocre for years but as I said this isn't about basketball. Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'neal were my two heroes. They were the people that I always looked up to from age 6 to 14 (11 for Shaq). The Lakers are the most important thing in my life. I'm sorry but I'm very, very obsessed. If I'm not watching a game then I'm on the computer watching plays or reading about them. I have dreams where they win the championship. It's almost unhealthy but I can't help it. I can't stop being a Lakers fan, so I have to stop being a Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'neal fan. You have no idea how hard that is so just shut your mouth.

Kobe would not come here, we'd have to give up way too much, and Pierce/Kobe wouldn't work nor would it get us anywhere with nothing around them.

I can understand ripping guys like Pau Gasol that have been there with the new contract for 2 years and want out....but I won't bash Kobe for it.
Yeah, I really think him getting traded is a pipedream. He might want it, but it's not very realistic. Management will find a way to make amends with him.

Like CB32 said, as great Kobe is...you have to keep some of your talent...cant trade it all. IMO, I think youll see a star, good young player(s) and some picks traded for him. But trades like Deng, Gordon, Duhon and pick would probably just hurt the Bulls more than anything.

I heard the Knicks could try and trade for Kobe. I heard Frye,lee and a few others. I think Kobe would love playing in NY but he also wants to win championships so that probably would not work.
