I'm a Bulls fan. And I don't like seeing them tearing up the team again just to get a guy who doesn't deliver. The Bulls team is still growing and adding experience. They are a team of the future... Kobe's athing of the past now who can't carry on his past glories.

Kobe may or may not b tlkng trade, but if he is askng 4 a trade, it's because he's not seeing the Lakers get decent plyrs 4 him 2 work with. Kobe knows that the plyrs on his team, aren't worth much in a trade to othr teams so, Kobe most like likely won't get the help he wants unless he gets traded in2 anther team.
The NBA has the most difficult way of trading players because teams have to match salaries of the players who r traded. If Kobe is traded 2 Chicago, The plyrs that the Lakers get from the Bulls, could in turn b traded 4 the plyr(s), u think the Lakers need.

As a Bulls fan, I hope that trade NEVER happens. What good is it to deplete your entire roster for one player? Then you just have another middle of the pack suckfest like the Lakers are now. Kobe isn't going anywhere most likely so he should just stfu and play. That being said, Mitch Kupchak is an embarrassment to general managers in all sports.

Tracy McGrady o the Houston Rockets. Yeah, he will cry like a little girl but the rockets get an upgrade and the Lakers get a close-enough substitute for the loss of Kobe.

Hands down , Kobe is the best player in the NBA.. I wouldn't even give it a second thought.... No one is going to replace him in LA.. the Lakers mangement screwed up last year when they didn't trade for J. Kidd! It's stupid , I mean Kobe is the face of that franchise and now he is demanding to be traded... I love Kobe and I will root for him wherever he goes!

Its a sad day but the man has to go, lets gut this team and start over,note to laker mgt you really screwed up last time , dont be so desperate this time ,Kobe sells lots of tickets ,you know other GMs want their arenas full, now its time for you to rip off someone,like Miami did to us... trade should have been D.wade ,Lamar ,Grant , I expexct this caliber for #24.....and no less..

yea i heard that rumor but chi would have to throw in the #9 pick and LA would give the #19. i actually think that chicago doesnt need kobe that badly. but chicago in theory make good trade partners with LA because of their young cheap talents.

I wouldnt trade any of them by themselves for Kobe. Kobe want's the Lakers to get people to help them win championships, but he won't pass to them, so why try to get more players for the Lakers if he is a ballhog. The Lakers are better off without Kobe, but hope not to the Bulls. That's my team.

If Kobe refuses to rescind his demand, I'd take Deng, Wallace, Sefalosha, draft picks, and cash.
Then, move the picks and Kwame (expiring contract) for a lockdown PG.
