That when the Lakers were looking to trade Shaq. Kobe was asked if he would like to have Dirk as a Laker, he said, Dirk?, He then stated emphatically, I don't want to play with Dirk! If Kobe were to go to Dallas with Dirk still there, it would not work anyway. Kobe would treat Dirk like Magic treated Vlade, ACCOUNTABLE!

Report: Cuban not interested in Dirk-for-Kobe trade
ESPN.com news services
Updated: October 19, 2007, 7:07 PM ET
Mark Cuban has been known as a risk-taker during his tenure as the owner of the Dallas Mavericks. But Cuban won't risk trading reigning MVP Dirk Nowitzki in an effort to acquire disgruntled Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant.
Bryant
According to The Dallas Morning News, Cuban said he will not trade Nowitzki, even if it meant he could get Bryant in return. Cuban spoke about the Bryant situation at a North Dallas dance studio, where he was taking a break from rehersals with Kym Johnson, his Dancing With the Stars partner.
"I still haven't talked to [Lakers owner] Jerry Buss," Cuban told the newspaper. "So until that happens, nothing can happen."
The Mavericks were an NBA-best 67-15 last season, but were shocked in the first round of the playoffs by the Golden State Warriors and lost the series 4-2. Dallas made minor adjustments to its roster since that loss, including signing veteran guard Eddie Jones and trading for the defensive-minded Trenton Hassell, but Cuban has otherwise kept his team in tact.
"If and when I talk to Jerry, I'll make it clear that we're not going to trade Dirk," Cuban told the newspaper. "And we're not going to dismantle our team. Kobe's one of the top players in the league. But without the right team around him, he's in the same position he was in Los Angeles.
"So you don't want to just shuffle the deck chairs. Either you're making an improvement to your team or you don't do it. And with a team that won 67 games last year, it's tough to improve significantly."
Bryant asked to be traded 4½ months ago, then avoided speaking about the Lakers until the beginning of training camp Oct. 1, when he talked more positively, saying he was looking forward to the season.
He played in Thursday night's 126-106 win over Seattle, but hadn't practiced since Saturday because of a sore knee.
"The knee feels pretty good," Bryant said after Thursday's game. "We just need to make sure we stay on top of it. That's why I came out and iced it. We're just going to monitor it and keep it under control."
Bryant appeared upbeat when he spoke to reporters before the game. He had mostly ignored the media since Lakers owner Jerry Buss stated last week that he "would certainly listen" to trade offers for the two-time defending NBA scoring champion.
When asked about his recent silent treatment, Bryant said: "Why would I need to bang my head against a wall?"
He missed some practice this week because of a sore knee, then said in his first formal interview since Buss' statement that it caught him off guard.
He repeated again on Thursday his desire to not discuss the matter.
"When I'm here, wherever I'm at, I'm ready to go," Bryant said. "It's not my job to worry about what management is doing at this point. I voiced my frustrations over the summer and I'll just leave it there."
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

After having ZERO success since Shaq left, Kobe might be willing to play with Dirk now if he had the oppurtunity but he would probably still find a way to screw that tandom up
I don't know, Dirk might be too soft a player for him.
Link?That when the Lakers were looking to trade Shaq. Kobe was asked if he would like to have Dirk as a Laker, he said, Dirk?
If Cuban wants to hold onto Dirk - fine.
However, when Kobe is traded someplace else and the Mavs endure their annual flameout in the 2007 playoffs again, what reason will he give the fans then for passing on Bryant?
fakeshow you a dummy, stop hating on the mavs
trading dirk for kobe would make the mavs worse than the lakers are think about it. the fakers would become championship contenders.
dont waste your time on this dude man. Lakeshow is actually not a lakers fan. he is a pathetic rockets fan who is posing as a lakers fan to simply talk to Spurs and Mavs fans about having more championships. Sad, isn't it?
oh so he like the crybaby MAC, the superstar that has never been out the 1 round, Dr. DiSaBlEd LiSt, with his suicidal ass.
lol yea. although I won't say much about T-Mac, because he has always been one of my favorite players in the NBA. but yea, hes a fake lakers fan.
I'm not hating, Im just being brutally honest!
My favorite Dirk Moment,
Minnesota vs. Dallas, fourth quarter, game close, minnesota steals the ball, pass to half court for Wally Szczerbiak, Dirk the only man back on defense with the angle and ahead of Wally, Wally see's Dirk, eyes light up, and attacks the rim, Wally 2 hand slam dunks on Dirk and Dirk didn't even touch him. Now that's avoiding contact
What's your favorite Rocket moment? When Dirk put 53 on 'em?
lake show you remeber when dirk dunked on Yao in the playoffs or when Marbary shook Yao and made him bust his ass I do.
Rocket fan has no room to call a player soft.
Tmac going around Dirkie easily and slamming on Shawn Bradley.
was T Macs crying in your top 10
No, but Dirkie getting beat up by the exercise bike was.
Or how about the Mavs coming back from losing the first two at home to put the beat down in Game 7? What was the final margin of victory? 37, 38 points?
