Excuse me, buddy...Do you not know anything? KG wants out of Minnesota, which has been pretty obvious for the past year or so. He has a trade clause, he can chose if he doesn't wanna get traded to a certain team or if he does...The Lakers is a very desirable destination for KG and a Kobe/KG tandem would more than likely be contending for a championship...When a superstar gets traded, most of the time the team trading the superstar doesn't get a player of equal value in return (for example: Shaq to Miami, Webber to Phili, etc.). That's because nowadays GM's value youth and contracts...Something like Odom+Kwame+George+draft pick for Kevin Garnett can easily be done in the interest of both teams...Minnesota might not be happy to see Garnett go, but do you think LA was happy to see Shaq go? This type of shit happens...PeACe

So basically you say this is a good trade for the Lakers and a bad trade for the Wolves, just like I said. Why exactly do you have to attack again and imply that I don't know shit? Seems like you became addicted to start a Laker-related response with a diss. Classy.

Did I really diss you? I just believe that you don't know what you're talking about...Unhappy superstars get traded, it doesn't mean the team losing the star will get a star in return...Who did New Jersey give away to obtain Toronto's franchise player? Parctically no one...And if an owner says he's not gunna trade away his star player, that doesn't mean shit...Raptors said it about Vince, Lakers said it about Shaq, etc...I never said anything about it being a bad trade for Minnesota, you just have trouble comprehending (and that's not a diss, I just think you misunderstood me)...PeACE

It depends from the role players. If they are as good as Ron Harper, Brian Shaw, Derek Fisher, Robert Horry, Rick Fox, etc.. then 1st in the West is a realistic prediction.

Naw...but Kobe obviously (like ive said a million times) needs another superstar. Not necessarily somebody at KG's level....but SOMEbody who will draw some sort of respect from opposing defenses. I think Phil would love havin someone like KG to work with. He's never had that kind of bigman and he would open up things for Kobe alot.

Okay...And every great player doesn't need the presence of at least one other great player on his team to win a championship? Kobe is more of a leader than KG...Look at how quickly the Wolves fell apart, and that's WITHOUT the roster falling apart...

i dont think every player needs another "great player" to win a championship. Some players could do it with a good cast around them. Do you consider Manu a "great player" yet? I dont think you do...because youve said so. Hakeem didnt have another great player with him during their first championship, unless you consider Mario Elie, Sam Cassel or Vernon Maxwell "great" lol. Detroit doesnt have one player who is considered a great player, but look at them. Anyways, bottom line is....the Lakers would obviously be a far better team by having KG. Would u rather have Kobe, KG, and a bunch of average players? Or Kobe...and a bunch of average players (the team now)?
