Kobe is still demanding a trade…to either New York, Chicago, or Phoenix
Along with a demand for a trade, a demand for a prescription for some bipolar meds needs to be made. So it looks like Kobe wants a trade in the end after all that back and forth talk, I just heard on Sportscenter (I swear I couldn’t find the remote!) Ric Bucher saying Kobe wants it to be done before draft. To either Phoenix, New York, or Chicago which would still fit in with Buhizzle’s Trade Scenarios #1 & #2. But Phoenix, how the hell would that work? for Shawn Marion+some scraps that make about 3mil? I say it doesn’t matter, no way the Lakers commit western conference suicide by trading to a rival.
And I’m praying that murmurs about Kobe for Gilbert Arenas are just a sick joke. DC loves Gil too much (even though he is going to opt out), plus considering Odom & Jamison are interchangeable, Kobe + Caron Butler didn’t work the first time around, and I highly doubt it would 2nd time around.
If Kobe goes anywhere, my personal guess it will be to the Knicks. Allan Houston, Jalen Rose, Mo Taylor, Shandon Anderson, Jerome Williams come off the books for a grand total of $60 f-n million!! That kinda helps.
