"Basketball Reasons"

David Stern

Mitch had it setup perfectly. Had Dwight and CP3 lined up to get Kobe win 6-7 rings then ride out in to the sunset. But nooooo...vetoed the trade and put the team on a 34 year old Kobe's back and essentially ends his career. Did irreparable damage to the Lakers franchise and yet Bron can team up with two HoF players and KD can join 3 All-Stars and possible HoF players themselves.

I'm sick. Ain't been the same since Jerry stepped down.


Hold me.




OT: Warriors should be the nastiest team in the modern era bar none. Excited to watch. Hopefully Mitch grabs Russ from OKC and brings him back home.

I still think the "veto" had everything to do with NO. That trade would have cost them Anthony Davis and would have made the team unsellable.

Kobe was already :flabbynsick, Chris Paul would have been a weird fit with him, and Dwight isn't exactly loved by Laker fans.

The possibilities man...the possibilities!

Lakers fans deserve to be pissed.

Stern is the worst ever, can't believe fools on here be co-signing that asshat.

Kobe was 27/5/5 that season, and then 27/6/6 the next. Fuxk you mean

The league owned the hornets and backed off a trade. Durant and LeBron and bosh were all free agents.

A trade is one thing
free agency is another.

The league only backed off because Cuban and Gilbert complained

The "veto" happened before the trade window even opened. I don't know why the league allowed the rumors to get out that it was a done deal but I don't think that trade was going to be allowed regardless. It really made no sense that the Hornets GM was still employed at the time.

Kobe himself was crying about his knee being bone on bone and he was very unspectacular in the playoffs that year.

It's bullshyt. Crippled our fukking franchise now I gotta see these nikkas making super teams left and right.

We legit offered up a fair trade if Pau and Lamar (pre come) for Paul
