Im usually not for that kind of thing but crazy as it sounds its not a bad idea. Its a starphuch for sure.
Send Shump with Amare, or JR smith and Im ok with that. Phish works well with Kobe. Its two years, as long as we are planning long term IM ok with that.
I'd be curious to see how Bargnani surrounded With Talent might elevate his game as well!
It would be exciting and the Knicks would just bump their cap space back to 2016. Kobe loves Phil, came into the league with Fish and has said he is his favorite teammate. It might be hard on a rookie coach to have to manage Kobe.
I'd imagine that's not in the plans. Phil and Melo structured the contract to give that little extra "wiggle room" in 2015. Not that it'll make a tremendous difference, but it looks as though 2015 is part of Plan A.
I think its max planning. Knicks havent had a front office that can think past the next move, its why we always traded picks. I think the cap wiggle room is just that. If the cap stays the same next year it could be the difference between a nice depth player or not.Kobe has a no trade. I think he would approve that trade, but Knicks would have to include an asset.
Also I thought it was his achillies not his knees? Interesting scenario though
Kobe don't get traded, Kobe gets onboard and wants to be in NY!
Even if he did not have the "No Trade", nobody wants a Kobe that don't what to be where Kobe wants to be!!
Kobe got that all time Laker legacy and should have a statue of his own. 5 rings is 5 rings.
Lakers would want more than Amare in return. They can have one of Shump, THJ or JR smith. Im sure they get more from us as well.
Kobe don't get us a ring, but no ring is coming in next two years anyway.
