New York Knicks or back home to Philly
Since Kobe wants a trade, where would he fit in best and who could get him? I'm assuming the Lakers would look to the East but I don't know if they would get equal value for him.
I thought about Orlando but I'm not sure they have what it would take to get him. Putting him next to another (future) dominant big man might be the best for Kobe.
Where do you think he could end up?
New York Knicks or back home to Philly
Most likely, the two teams with the most to offer would be Dallas or Chicago. But Chicago would have to probably part with both Gordon and Deng, and I don't know if they would give that much up for Kobe.
Cuban loves Dirk to much to part with him. Harris, Howard, Buckner fo Kobe would probably get it done.
no it wouldnt
I wouldn't be surprised if he winds up with the Clippers, but Golden State, New York, and Philly (and maybe even Atlanta, or Charlotte) are the places I think he might end up.
Kobe for Portland's 1st round pick and Roy
Kobe for Gordan, Deng and Nocioni
Lakers need to trade Kobe for a superstar. Lakers also need to trade odom and Kwame and whoever else for another superstar. Try to have 2!
i think he will land in Chicago. if they land him in Dallas, it better not be for Dirk. if they trade Dirk for him, we'll never beat San Antonio, thus probably never get out of the west, cause no other team can grow any balls and beat the Spurs![]()
naw i dont think the Hawks have a deal in place
He's got a no-trade clause. He would first have to approve it. Where would he be willing to play?
New York has the contracts and a few young talented guys to actually make a trade possible without mortgaging the entire team.
Steve Francis
Jamal Crawford
Channing Frye
Nate Robinson
2007 first round draft pick
future future round draft pick
for
Kobe Bryant
Vladimir Radmanovic
kobe has the lakers by the balls
I think the first round pick for this year will be kept. But minus that and it seems like a great deal.
Gordan.![]()
Portland and Chicago both would be completely idiotic to make those trades.
Hopefully the East. Not because I'm scared of Kobe being in the West, but because the East is very much lacking right now compared to the West, and with Durant and Oden almost definitely going to the West, that would put the East in a much bigger hole. He could go:
Knicks (Isaiah Thomas seems to go for everyone)
Pacers (Maybe O'Neal and someone else for Bryant; O'Neal wants a trade as well)
Magic (Leave Howard out somehow? That would be a good duo in Bryant and Howard)
Those I think would be the top 3. He's not going to the Bulls; the Bulls need a low post scorer and they are set. They have an excellent backcourt as it is. Philly/Charlotte would have no one around Kobe after a trade; Kobe wants to win so why would he go somewhere where he can't?
Lakers would want a big name player in return to sell their overpriced tickets, no one else but Kobe....except maybe a Lebron, Wade, or Melo can do that for the franchise. And since those players won't be traded, I doubt Kobe will either...
yep. he's saying all this now cuz he's pissed....once he cools off he's going to back off on all of this.
I think he would rather go to .
Sixers and Knicks could use him. Just get him out of the west.
Maybe to Boston for Pierce and others?
"The Celtics had better hope Jianlian or whoever they pick pans out, because multiple sources confirmed on Tuesday that Paul Pierce wants to win sooner rather than later. One source said, "Paul is not a big fan of a youth movement at all. He wants to win right now." The source also questioned Pierce's ability to lead the Celtics coming down the stretch of games. "You know, he is to blame for some of Boston's problems. He turns the ball over a lot and hasn't proved he can deliver at the end of games. He is just as much to blame for their problems as anyone else." Both sources indicated the Celtics will almost certainly explore the possibility of moving Pierce this summer, especially since he has no intention of being part of a youth movement in Boston."
