The Perpetual NBA Thread

LBJ for Kobe, no GM would take that deal.... LBJ is a leader and playmaker and under 20yo... LBJ proved himself in his first 2 years that he's capable of leading a team...

Maybe. But, you can't deny Kobe is still a top 5 player in the NBA and is just entering his prime. Add to that, he's won 3 NBA titles. Cleveland isn't Hollywood but the change of scenery may be just what he'll need.

On the other hand, would LBJ pass up an opportunity to play for the Lakers? Admittedly, some players find playing in LA attractive so long as its not the Clippers.

yes kobe is probably top 3 in the league, but in the league, only W counts, individual player skills falls to second...

speaking from logic, i dont see many GMs are willing to part with LBJ for Kobe.

kobe is cancer!

sure skills-wise he's way up there....especially during clutch situations...but unlike MJ who had a great relationshp w/ his teammates on&off the court,kobe seems to lack any people skills...or probably thinks he's way better than everybody else else to waste his time interacting w/ them...no way cavs are gonna take kobe for LJ...sorry if i offended any kobe fans here

Kobe for Dwayne Wade?

interestingly enough, kupchak first demanded that a trade for shaq had to include wade. riley said go to hell.

guess who blinked first?

How can you get stats like this and still get paid a lot?

Saw the Heat - Hornets game, Wade was dominant, so was Shaq. But how could this team loose to an undermanned Pacers team without Ron Artest and Jarmaine O'neal? Somethings still missing with this team.

they also lost to the bobcats. i noticed that they sometimes lose focus against teams, usually when Damon Jones is on the floor. i hate that guy.
