Is there a way we can sign him in LA on a contract similar to what the Knicks did for Lin...and pay him over time...move Kobe to SF and Wade to SG..it's risky due to health concerns but if they stay healthy they're getting out of the west if we sign a legit big...
Even Kobe was trying to sell what you just did, Kool. He thought players would flock to play with him because "LA took care of Kobe" but instead players saw what a silly move that was and it scared them away.
Your point is invalid.
The nerve of Duncan to ask for less and then get a le out of it.
Dwight was a cancer....Kobe ran him off he didnt walk away on his own
..
Pau was used as trade bait for years got a chance to finally repay them for trying many times to trade him but failing to do so....
Melo turned all teams down to get the most money
Keep in mind I'm literally smarter than you so you'll have to come with strong arguements when ing with Kool...I'm the Kobe of ST..which means I'm hard as to guard...update your game plan...
So you are confirming what I said. Glad to finally see you admit that LA was not able to sign players even though they "took care of Kobe" and had max money to sign guys. That is exactly what I said happened and what many said the second Kobe signed that huge contract.
We all knew that meant losing, but even we didn't think that would mean back to back lotteries.
Lakers were not winning regardless..it all worked out we got basically what amounts to two top 3 picks within the past 2 yrs..we're in grest shape
Back to this topic though - MIA will pay Wade - it will be shocking if they end on something like this, despite it being the right basketball move. It's a blessing to have a Duncan/Dirk vs Kobe and what appears to be Wade though.
Wade much lesser than Kobe since he did give MIA flexiblity (even though it backfired). But he has to understand if he wants to win, he has to take a little less. Players are really short-sighted. You may hate the rules, but the CBA is in place and that's reality. MIA has taken care of Wade his entire career and helped him win les and make him rich. Letting the twilight years end like this is foolish.
Like i said you're a gotdam moron...so Miami helped him get rich but he didnt help them get rich?
You weren't selling the "we weren't winning regardless" stuff when Kobe signed. You were spouting how Kobe was still good enough. You were spouting how he would draw players in and win. You were spouting how LA had money and that no one turns down LA.
You didn't get two top 3 picks. You got a 7th pick and the number 2 pick. The 7th pick broke his leg and has very little value at this point too. No one wants to play with Kobe, the owners are arguing & you have no good building blocks as of now. You've been in two straight lotteries while having the most embarrassing stretch in your franchies history. If that's in a good spot, then wow.
Where did I say that
He got hurt you friggin moron

Reread your drivel
Who did?
The 2nd pick and the 1st picks are interchangeable..last years 7th pick could have easily been a top 5...blended you have basically two #3 picks
Stay with me DPG and stop playing the fool,
Sure, but you were saying you knew all the way back to the contract they wouldn't win. Kobe signed when healthy, so him being hurt has no bearing. You said you knew the entire time. You're either lying now or your point is now invalid.
Not only that, LA had the cap space before Kobe got hurt and still got turned down by FA's.
Him getting hurt changed everything....it changed all dynamics and entered in skepticism...you're not too bright eh?
No one spurned us....
Kobe personally ran Dwight off..if you cant see that you're a moron..
The fans ran Pau off...we wanted him gone or for 4-5 mill/ yr
Melo turned everyone down for the cash...
There was no one else worth signing...if so name names
So you were shut out like I said. It's not about naming names. It's about you claiming Kobe knew the entire time he wasn't going to win even though he was healthy and they had cap space when he signed his contract? Again, you are either lying to save face now in hindsight or you were wrong.
Kobe knew we were constrained period....contract or not..nash was sucking up space and there wasnt anyone of significance we could have signed outside of Melo...even if a healthy Kobe had taken a Dummy Duncan Deal there still wouldnt have been enough talent out there....its called being a visonare....the injury only made things worse...
Now you are slowly arriving to the truth - it's like pulling teeth from Laker fan. You still lied and bought into Kobe being worth his contract basketball-wise, but at least you have the hindsight injury excuse to sleep better at night
