Kobe wants to be traded. No... wait... he loves playing on the Lakers. He wants to be traded again!
This kind of flip-flopping news worries me a little because one of the teams that's always in the rumors is Chicago. I'm confident that John Paxson sees the light in all of this and will opt to keep the Bull's core players intact. I think he'll stick to his no-ego mindset. Bryant is a better player on paper than any Bull, but teamwork and chemistry are the most valuable asset. It's through those 2 things that the Bulls made it into the 2nd round. Bryant's Lakers barely slithered their way into the playoffs. The Bulls chemistry is not worth disrupting... not for Gasol, not for KG and not for Bryant. There's only one player I would involve in a blockbuster trade and he's not available for the next 2 years. I have faith in Paxson, but the thing that worries me is Jerry Reinsdorf (half of the Jerries that sabotaged a 10-year Bull's Dynasty) is still around.
How about sending Kobe to the Knicks so we can kick his ass 4 times a year!? Or better yet... send him to Pluto and he can have the ball all to himself.
