    For this to work, the Lakers would have to play with 2 basketballs since Kobe ain't giving up his. I wonder how the BIG Kardashian would like Philly? I'm guessing this is just a rumor though.

    Ya, done deal? If so I just love seeing our rivals improve. AI is a great defender and doesn't have to so a whole lot on offense, but can if needed. I wonder when we will upgrade, maybe when we stop thinking Batum is God.

    Once again the Lakers get a good player for table scraps if this happens.

    I'm guessing this is the pre-move to them going after K-Love.

    I don't see anywhere that this is more than just a rumor.

    Igoudala is my #1 trade target. Get on the phone and make a sweeter deal than the Lakers!

    I don't really know that Kobe and Igoudala would really co-exist that well. Neither guy is a great perimeter threat. It's kind of a poor man's LeBron/Wade, where you have two great slashers/ball dominating wing men who don't shoot threes well. When Kobe has won championships it's been playing next to role playing small forwards who can defend and hit perimeter shots. Rick Fox, Robert Horry, Glen Rice (ok, no defense but great shooting), Ron Artest. That's not really AI's game.

    Here's another iteration of the rumor, but with Artest. But it looks like it's bunk either way. LINK

    How do Kobe, AI, and Artest play together? It also makes the L@kers shorter. Odem used to kill us. If Bynum goes down then you have Pau at center and who at PF? Artest?

    Not going to happen and I'm glad its not. I like Iggy, but if we're going to run through the post in Mike Brown's "offense", we need someone who can shoot the damn ball.
