Lakers and Bulls discussing Kobe trade daily

You don't pass up a chance to get the best player in the NBA in his prime. If they can finagle the Lakers into accepting Gordon/Thomas/Noah/Nocioni/1st roundersx2 for Kobe, then a Hinrich/Kobe/Deng/whoever/Wallace lineup wins 55+ games and is the prohibitive Eastern favorite to reach the Finals.

Of course, I think they're already the Finals fave in the East...but not having someone the refs love doesn't help you in the playoffs.

am i the only one who thinks the Bulls shouldnt be giving that much for Kobe? We're already a team to beat in the East, and i dont think we should mortgage the future to get him. I think if the Bulls do get him, the Paxson isn't giving up more than Gordon,Thabo/Tyrus,Noah, and a 1st Rd. pick(We could add some older veteran for money reasons). Kobe has already said that if the Bulls give up too much then he's gonna veto the trade.
What is somethin that I have a feeling that could happen is a 3 team trade involving the Bulls,Lakers and Wizards, but thats unlikely
