I totally disagree. He hasn't done squat since Shaq left, except score 81 points. Which, IMO, is indicative of his selfish play. The best player in the league right now is Duncan -- hands down.

once again put duncan on the lakers see how many points he HAS to score. 81 points was not selfish, he has no help to do anything. Kobe is the best player hands down.

Ghetto, the NBA hasn't seen a dominant player like Kobe since MJ. Period.

He is head and shoulders above the rest of the NBA right now. Yes, King James included.

Why do you think Kobe is so dominant? Would you take Kobe over Duncan? Sure, if Kobe wants to score, nobody can really stop him. However, the same can be said of AI.

As a diehard Lakers fan I am pissed off at Kobe. I mean how self centered can he be? I agree that the Lakers have made some bad moves the last few years but come on. If Kobe had any class he would shut the F up and help the Lakers rebuild. I could never picture Magic Johnson pulling this crap. Does he forget that the Lakers supported his ass through all the Colorado BS? Our that they dumped Shaq, Karl Malone, Gary Paton and others to rebuild around him? Did he really think the Lakers would be champs again over night? For him to rip the organization and it's players to two strangers in a parking lot is just flabbergasting to me. At this point I almost don’t care if he gets traded. Even though I will have to change my licens plate from 8 LAKERS to HATE 24. F that little spoiled bit-h! Where does he think he can go and win a ring next year? N.Y,Philly? lol
All that being said I think this will die down and Kobe will be wearing a Lakers uniform come Oct. There really aren't many places he can go.

I will go on record to say that Kobe will never win another championship again.

I agree that although Kobe is a better all around player than Gil, Gil means so much more to the organization and the city and is truly my favorite player in the league. Can you see Kobe playing in the summer league games at Barry Farms in SE?

As far as Marion for Antawn? Their salaries are pretty similar and if it were a straight swap, I'd do it in a second. I think Antawn is great, but Marion gives you all the intangibles that the Wizards are missing with his hustle, lock-down D, and rebounding, and he's a few years younger (Antawn is a better scorer). Either way, I can't see that happening.

12thMan · 06-20-2007, 05:03 PM

I'll add this too. I love it when people say, "Well Shaq got a ring without Kobe, but Kobe...blah, blah.., blah. Whatever.

Shaq had, what, three or four perennial All-Stars on his team that year? He was simply the missing piece, and we saw what happend to the Heat this year.

When Kobe learns how to play some defense I'd consider this. Until then, resign agent 0.

Kobe plays great D. I don't know who you’ve been watching.

I love when people make comments that show they clearly have no idea what they are talking about. Kobe is a perennial member of the all-defensive team.

Seriously that guy has no idea what he is talking about. Kobe is a top 5 perimeter defender in this league.

But trading Butler and Arenas for Kobe solves nothing. We are still at least one big man away from competing for a title, and we'll still probably be behind the Bulls and maybe even the Cavs in the east. If you can make a trade like this and win a championship then you do it, but I can't believe that would happen.

Wow, clearly there is desperation for threads here.
Come on football season...we need you now.

Kobe plays great D. Hard to argue that.

As for the Wizards they could be radically different next year. Hayes, Haywood, Thomas could all be gone. Blatche and Pecherov should see bigger roles on the team. So might Juan Carlos Navarro.

Stevenson might not be back. If he doesn't come back I'd love to see Grant Hill here. And if we're going to trade Jamison I'd trade him to Memphis for Pau Gasol.
