Now Kobe asked for a trade. How about bringing Kobe + Tmac on the same team? Kobe is near the level the MJ and Tmac is better than Pippen. Rockets will be an instant contender.
i hope you guys are kidding. KOBE BRYANT for YAO MING is a complete steal in favor of the rockets. i would do this in a heart beat.
I would trade Yao for Kobe... too good to pass up but then Rox would be putting to ball hogs... who could not get it done alone... when they engineered thats they would be the star player for their team...
This is an interesting scenario. Only because this is probably more feasible player for player wise than TMac for Kobe. I doubt the Lakers want TMac, but they would definitely trade Kobe for Yao. Kobe and TMac would be an interesting duo, but Kobe and Yao would be so much better, it's not even funny.
Yeah, it would be difficult to trade him because of his BYC status. It means his outgoing trade salary is only half of his actual salary. This means that a third team would have to become involved in order for a Kobe for Yao deal to take place. I've posted something similar in another thread, but here is something that would work: Houston Gets: Kobe, Radmanovic, Othella Harrington and Charlotte's #22 LA Gets: Yao, Juwan and Rafer (Maybe Luther, the #26, or Sura's expiring instead of Rafer to make the deal sweeter for LA) Charlotte Gets: Battier
Of course I would, Kobe is by far the best offensive player in the league. Yao for Kobe or Tmac for Kobe, either way, I would do it in a heart beat. Maybe we can do a three way trade and get chuncy here as well. Don't ask me how to cause I have no idea. ahhhh, daydreaming.
