Cleveland is pretty dumb though.
Not dumb enough though to try to bring in 2014-15 Kobe

I wouldn't rule them out trying. But I know it would be dumb of them.

Makes sense for both teams. Unless lakers pull something off this summer, hate to see Kobe go out this way.

Depends on what they have to throw in with amare. But pairing Kobe with Melo is better than anything else they can line up. No one is lining up to go there with 30 yr old Melo either.

Knicks would be dumb to do that. Kobe and Melo and the rest of the Knickerbockers would not be winning jack shit so why do it.

Both the Bulls and Cavs would bitch slap the Knicks and several other teams in the east might also.

The Knicks are in their first season with Fish as the HC and with Phil. Why in the hell would they want to bring in "another ISO ball dominant player" in Kobe to pair with Melo?? Their defense only gets worse with Kobe.

There's no logical explanation whatsoever for the NYK to persue Kobe and bring in his 2yr 48mil salary.

You really think Phil wants that headache again in such a short time after being hired into his position??? Phil Knows it's a marathon, not a sprint.

Time Warner Cable would probably sue The Lakers if they make this trade.

How about that greedy ass KoMe take less money so he can get the help he needs if he wants a championship in LA. Wouldn't that make more sense?

Melo/KoMe would never work anyways unless the game was played with 2 basketballs

Just wondering, if your boss offered you 80 million to do the job you are doing now, would you take it even though it wouldnt be best for your company?

only betas take less money.
The franchise should pay the difference.
unless they are in a small market and are too pathetic to afford it

So let me get this straight. You as a fan would rather Kobe take more so he could be an alpha and you can watch the team lose. :crazy:

You think so. I think Kobe is too old for that to be true. They can put up the points but the defense would be laughable
