Re: kobe wants out
[ QUOTE ]
Does he have any opt out clauses coming up in the near future?
Seems easy to make a trade for a player to make him happy- JOneal, KG, etc..cept Buss seems unwilling to trade Odom or that young kid.

Problem is that no one wants to trade a guy like KG or O'Neal for Odom, and if Bynum is part of the deal, it becomes difficult to match salaries b/c Bynum is on a rookie contract. The Lakers are pretty much stuck...
Unless they deal Kobe, which as a long-time Laker fan, I hope they do. As long as Kobe is in purple and gold, the Lakers will not win another title, period. Aside from his selfish play hurting the team on the court, his MO of throwing everyone under the bus (Shaq, Kupchack, Buss, Malone, his current teammates) makes it so no star player would ever want to play with him. This is probably as good a supporting cast as he'll ever see again in LA, and that's not saying much.
