So Kobe is going to follow Josh Childress' lead? Par for the course for the league's best #2 in history.
I find this amazing...that not only will players follow Kobe's lead but his own teammate who leaked the story want to remain anonymous...Kobe got them s trained and apparently he's got the league by the balls. If Kobe leaves face it the league is ed. Nope Lebron and Wade can't fill those shoes at this time...let's be real Kobe leaving for Europe would really be a disaster for the league... I expect Stern to address this with Kobe by seeing to it that the 3 peat goes through as planned...
Teammate: Kobe May Leave For Italy If He Doesn't Like New CBA
Feb 11, 2011 07:07 AM EST
According to one of his teammates, Kobe Bryant recently threatened, "I'll play in Europe" when they were discussing the potential of an NBA lockout this summer and the ramifications of a new collective bargaining agreement.
"Kobe understands what the players before him did and he feels a responsibility to do the same to the younger guys," said the teammate, who did not want to be identified.
The idea of Kobe finishing his career overseas has some players intrigued.
"If he goes to play in Italy I will go with him," joked Danilo Gallinari, New York's Italian-born forward.
Bryant spent part of his childhood in Italy, where his father, Joe Bryant, played professional basketball.

Good. The NBA has a stranglehold on professional basketball. They have all the best players and all the worst referees. I hope their ty WWE league dissolves.

Laker fan still delusional.
Hey Kool, are you upset that your team won last night? I don't think I'd have to ask that question of any other fan on this board, but you're an exception.
Good riddance
There's a couple of problems with all of the mass exodus of NBA players to Europe. Those players under contract may be in violation of their contract and more importantly the European leagues will pay far less than the NBA when they feel they have their choice of players. Also, if the Eurpoean teams started signing players under contract in the NBA you can bet that the NBA would no longer recognize the validity of the European cotract when things get settled and would go after their best players ad lib.
this is where we agree...worse refs ever...they don't give Kobe the calls he deserve...MJ was never treated this poorly by the refs...and it's blatant to...they let s foul Kobe with impunity and never ing call ...Kobe should be at the line at least 15-20 times a night...another reason I say MJ had it easier than Kobe...when we debate this we never talk about how the refs where in bed with MJ and hate Kobe because he threatens MJ's legacy...they loved MJ so much til they were finding and bringing him white chics to bang when he went on the road...and they knew he was married...those ers went out of their way to do for MJ...they'd never bring white chics for Kobe to bang... ing hypocrisy man...don't beleive me here is the evidence...

yes I am but I'll get over it...
Wow the league may lose the greatest sidekick to ever lace 'em up
Seriously? You find this amazing? There are two (2) possibilities here:that not only will players follow Kobe's lead but his own teammate who leaked the story want to remain anonymous
1) Kobe staged this "breaking" news to make headlines.
Thus, Kobe is a .
2) His teammates like to talk behind his back.
Thus, Kobe is a .
And, according to the usual Koolaid idiocy... this is amazing.
Had this happened a few years ago, yes, this would have been horrible for the NBA.
But right now? I think the league would be more affected if Blake Griffin left for Italy.
Kobe is still big. But not as big as he once was.
really...
Nope, I'm no tied-up-to-bed white chik, so I dunno. :P
How are rape cases handled in Europe?
Kobe...
Gallinari...
yup, that's what I call an exodus.
Ah and don't be mad, Kobe can hang out with AI - he knows how to end a career outside of the NBA.
The Michael Jordan of Europe
Thread starter starts threads
typical Kobe sociopath move. Always watching out for His and only His
Is your avatar really you?
sorry not interested.
But I heard koolaids is looking for dates. Just wear a condom.
Kobe leaves good riddance most over-ranked superstar ever as he absolutely has proven he cannot win with either the best big in the game at the time or a ton of other great bigs holding him up.
Kobes no dummy. Just doing what a lot of aging/declining stars do when they start to realize their getting old, go overseas to extend their career.
one thing he's proven is that he can repeat without Duncan....but Duncan hasn't proven that he can repeat without Kobe........now this will require some critical thinking....
Geniusone thing he's proven is that he can repeat without Duncan....but Duncan hasn't proven that he can repeat without Kobe....
You can also say Boston can only win without Nate Robinson.
or Bryant hasn't proven that he can repeat without Gasol.
thinking isn't your strenght Missy
ohh really....Genius
