    Wrong,

    its rather as nobody wants to play with a superstar whose having a huge contract at the end of his career while never recovered from a serious injury.

    If this is the Kobe 10 years ago, LMA will sign with the Lakers in a heart beat.

    Kobe would of had Marc Gasol on his team but after he found out how they treated his brother he said nope. Im sure everybody knows that if your on Kobes team your job is to give Kobe the ball and grab rebounds.

    This is exactly why the Lakers should have pulled the trigger on the Cousins deal regardless of the cost.

    Yep, and I love it. It's awesome how ESPN reports every big name soon to be free agent "wants to play in LA" but its just never true.

    Playing basketball for a living should be fun. Nobody wants to play with or play for *ssholes.

    Thats definitely part of it. Doesn't help that Kobe hasn't adjusted his playing style to being old and that his contract makes it hard to still build around.

    I heard Kobe told LMA he wanted him to play the Pau role if he were to come to LA.

    I read that when Aldridge asked Kobe how he saw him fitting in there, Kobe talked about how he fit with Pau Gasol. I'm sure that Aldridge loved hearing a broken down 36 year old Kobe telling him how he'll be his second option.

    Except Dwight Howard, Trevor Ariza, Patrick Beverley, Corey Brewer, Josh Smith, and James Harden (he signed off on the trade that brought him to Houston).

    You're correct.

    They all moved to St. Louis.

    Ehh, these new guys dont have the same drive. Guys like Kobe, CP3 wanna win at all cost. What you have now is a bunch of highly sensitive millionaires who care more about twitter followers than winning championships. I miss the ol days
