Kobe demands trade

[Bennett4UT]

Kobe Bryant was on Steven A. Smith's show about an hour ago and on the show he demanded a trade from LA.

The Hawks have two first rounders and alot of cap room......

word is he wants to go to Chicago....

word is he wants to go to Chicago....

Kobe: "I wanna be like Mike"

Please Lakers trade Kobe, he's killing our franchise.

 

[SWIL]

Hope he goes to the Hawks!! We need all the help we can get!

 

[TennesseeFan07]

I don't know what value the Hawks could give to the Lakers, but I believe that he'll go to an Eastern Conference team.

I'm with you. It sucks to have the premier player (on both ends of the floor) in the game who's a proven winner.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

I don't know what more Kobe wants. He got his way earlier when he broke up that whole team because he said he wanted it to be his team, now that he knows he can't do it by himself he wants to have good players. He has a terrible attitude and has destroyed the Lakers franchise. Andrew Bynum is now the all-star for the Lakers.

What has he done in his 3 years by himself. A missed postseason and a first round exit in his other 2 years.

What has any star done by himself or with the type of talent that surrounds Kobe. Only one I know of winning anything might be Mikan because nobody had an answer for him.

The Lakers were moving Shaq with or without Kobe and it sounds like they're now admitting to cutting costs. I'd say the front office has more to do with the results than Kobe does.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

It's hard for any star to want to play with a ball-hog such as Kobe is. Kobe's starting to understand that the West is getting even tougher with Portland getting Oden and Seattle getting Durant he knows the Lakers will struggle to even make the playoffs this season, so now he wants to go to the east so he will be assured a playoff spot on whichever team he gets on.

This reminds me of Kobe...

I would like to see Kobe in Orlando

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Kobe and Dwight Howard would make a pretty good tandom.

 

[Vol423]

I hope Kobe stays put right where he is. He's reaping what he sewed.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

I don't he's killing the Lakers. It's time for them to rebuild around Bynum, if they trade Kobe now, they will benefit later.

Andrew Bynum is now the all-star for the Lakers.

Bynum is far from an all-star.

I think Kobe stays in LA...but, if he is dealt, I think it'd be great for the Eastern Conference and for the NBA if Kobe ended up with the Knicks.

 

[Bennett4UT]

What do the Knicks have to offer in trade?

 

[getyopopcornready]

Now Kobe is saying he wants to stay in LA

 

[getyopopcornready]

What do the Knicks have to offer in trade?

nothing,the only way the knicks could trade for Kobe is if they agree to pay the rest of Kobe's contract, let Kobe play the first half of the season with the Lakers and pay the Lakers 20 million dollars

 

[Bennett4UT]

Now Kobe is saying he wants to stay in LA

With the clippers? It is tough to back off his comments today since they asked him several times if he thought things could be worked out and he said no

 

[XtennesseeX]

I wish he would come to Orlando.

We have him one of the best centers here as in Dwight Howard.

 

[Jaytrain5]

What do the Knicks have to offer in trade?

Not enough to get Kobe...but, my point was that it'd be good for the NBA if the Knicks were relevant again.

no with the lakers, apparently Phil had a talk with him earlier today
