Id have to agree... His body is definitely breaking down... he could still be useful to the Lakers if he could accept a lesser role but no way
Kobes ego lets him do that.. I would love to ship Carmelo Anthony to the lakers with a pretty red bow on him and get him the hell off my Knicks...
First off Kobe already signed a 48 MiL for two years, so he is not gonna retire…. Also if he leaves Lakers, there goes a lot of the market value. Unless they can get Melo, but he will never win a championship, not a guy to build around at all.. So no keep him to your Knicks! Give us Chandler for Gasol n Nash
*hopeful* I know its not going to happen
Lakers are actually really fun to watch right now (without Kobe), they play hard n actually win against better teams. But they won't get into playoffs without Kobe.. you need a superstar who can still draw double/triple teams. Kobe is smart he will accept a lesser role.. he could easily average 15-20points with like 8+assists
