I been a Laker fan since I was 7.....if they don't make an effort to resign him I might have to question my rooting interest until Buss dies or Jeanie takes over

Depends on how Kobe plays next year. If, at WORSE, he's still the best SG in the NBA....he deserves to be paid like it.

Wade getting paid 20.2 mill this season and scheduled to make 21.7 mill next season.
James Harden is being paid 14.7 mill this season, 15.8 mill in 2015 season, 16.8 mill in 2016, & 17.8 mill in 2017

Kobe deserves to make more than both of em if he's still better. 2 yrs/45 million:blessed:

I hope he gets maxed out and retire a laker. Bring back the true meaning of franchise player. He's a dying breed.

Only him wade dirk and spurs star the last of the Mohicans.

In the nfl only Brady

In baseball only Jeter and Rivera

I'm not going to argue who's better because it's subjective, each player has a different role on the team.

I'll argue those guys especially harden are much younger, putting up the same if not better production than kobe, and are not coming off a blown achilies.

nikkas wanna give kobe the max :deadmanny:

thats a ticket to the lottery, no way lakers are stupid enough to do it

If Kobe really wants to win he need to take that 10 mill a year because anything more will make sure they wont be able to assemble a squad good enough

stop what? look at the numbers my brotha

Player A 27 points, 6, rebounds, 6 dimes, 1.5 steals, 46% from 2, 32% from 3, 84% at the stripe - 39 minutes per game

Player B 26 points, 5 rebounds, 6 dimes, 2.0 steals, 44% from 2, 37% from 3, 85% at the stripe - 38 minutes a game

Player C 21 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assist, 2.0 steals, 52% from 2, 26% from 3, 72% at the stripe - 35 minutes a game

how is this not similiar considering player c plays roughly 3 less MPG than the other 2 and doesn't get the scoring opportunities the other 2 have
