I was getting tired everyday. That there was a new unfounded trade that was going to happen. Thank God the trade deline is over and we can get to real post on real topics. Not made up what ifs or what could. This is not a angry post just a relief post.
Houston trades: SG Cuttino Mobley (15.3 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 3.4 apg in 39.4 minutes) SF Eric Piatkowski (4.8 ppg, 1.6 rpg, 0.5 apg in 17.0 minutes) C Kelvin Cato (6.3 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 1.0 apg in 26.7 minutes) Houston receives: SG Kobe Bryant (22.1 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 4.5 apg in 36.7 minutes) Change in team outlook: -4.3 ppg, -8.5 rpg, and -0.4 apg. L.A. Lakers trades: G Kobe Bryant (22.1 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 4.5 apg in 36.7 minutes) L.A. Lakers receives: SG Cuttino Mobley (15.3 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 3.4 apg in 53 games) SF Eric Piatkowski (4.8 ppg, 1.6 rpg, 0.5 apg in 27 games) C Kelvin Cato (6.3 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 1.0 apg in 52 games) Change in team outlook: +4.3 ppg, +8.5 rpg, and +0.4 apg. TRADE ACCEPTED Due to Houston and L.A. Lakers being over the cap, the 15% trade rule is invoked. Houston and L.A. Lakers had to be no more than 115% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
There is another rumor out there. We are going to trade Kickingback to the ESPN message board. Clutch will receive bob457 and a six pack.
