Frack Blazersedge: Discussing if the Blazers should trade for Kobe

[GriLtCheeZ]

Batum +Claver + Wright + CJ + Leonard + Claver works cap wise. But LA couldn't have that many people on their roster without waiving people right?

Gonna have a hard time trading Claver twice.

There is a RSS feed on the Blazers main page that displays our thread titles. They've asked us not to have cussing in thread titles. We can cuss in the threads. We've been taking out the swear words in thread titles for over a year now.

I didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up.

serious question, sly...can we have "F***" in the feeds or do we have to say "Frack/Fudge/Screw"? I mean, whoever reads it knows what we mean, but one looks like editing and one sounds like a 6-year-old with a potty mouth.

I would like to sign Kobe for the vet minimum, and then send him to the D league for the entire season.

Even the D-League wouldn't accept Kobe.

I'd say folks should be able to leave off the superfluous colorful language and write like an adult. I'm no prude, but I do try to consider the sensibilities of others, particularly children, in certain social situations. Our private little frat boy club has gone public. It shouldn't be hard to have a tiny bit of respect for others. I'd leave off the Fark/Fudge Factor in titles altogether.

That would make for great news:

I think Kobe is in decline, an injury waiting to happen, a low character locker room guy and one of the most selfish teammates you could sign..and did I mention way overpaid? I want depth on the bench. I don't think Kobe is that. People complained about Mo chucking and not being able to defend. Kobe is that and more. It'd be like MJ joining the Wizard, you'd get a couple of 50 pt games from him but for the most part he'd be bagged in ice and 2 steps too slow on the court

Uh oh, y'all done teed BGD off ...

 

[BlazerWookee]

Wouldn't it be great if Kobe went to NY and NY missed the playoffs while Linsanity makes the playoffs in LA?

It would never be great for the L*kers to make the playoffs, ever. L*ker Hatred is a moral imperative, and is not subject to conditional modifiers.

You always say not to fall in love with Players but you clearly have a thing Kobe. The fact Kobe is on any all-NBA Defensive team 2010 and on just shows that that award is more about reputation then anything. Kobe hasn't been anything but an okay defender who can turn it on for very small stretches of time since his last title season.

Well what do you say we just sign Bill Russell then, he's available and has trophies all over the place. You forgot on your list, disgruntled teammates, fired coaches and scared hotel staff

Kobe is a horrible defender. I never knew why he got those considerations

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

No. Kobe coasted on defense sometimes, but at the end of the game with the game on the line he has been an outstanding defender.

 

[Natebishop3]

Kobe is making so much money, it would take a ton just to match.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

No. Kobe coasted on defense sometimes, but at the end of the game with the game on the line refs were afraid to call fouls on him.

Fixed.

 

[magnifier661]

This is why you should never have some journalist like this tool making decisions regarding a professional team. Khan, blazers edge is calling you!

 

[riverman]

Same guys who wanted to trade for Steve Nash, that worked out well eh?

 

[stampedehero]

No Not him. Too much him. Not enough team.

 

[ripcityboy]

Ha. Some journalist is sniffing the glue. How old is Kobe? Coming back from two major injuries. And at a
30 million a year clip? Sorry Lakers. Nobody wants the pathetic remnants of your team. But don't worry,
you have two good draft picks and every jack that can dribble a basketball will break their backs signing with you.
Two years from now you'll be in the playoffs. And Jerry Buss will be at the blackjack tables in heaven with a woman on
each side.
