It still leaves them room to sign a Max UFA but you would have thought that Kobe would take a little less to make it easier to field a competitive team.Heir, Prince of Cambridge

*I guess technically it's a paycut. But he's still the highest paid player in the league, so that should be good enough for his ego.Last edited by white men can't jump; Mon Nov 25, 2013, 01:41 PM.

Yeah, well.. Kobe has all the leverage in this situation. Either pay him that, or lose him and have the entire fanbase go bonkers.Twitter - @thekid_it

They won't win a title, and Kobe will do no good, because he'll spend all his time going after personal records, but they probably weren't going to win anyway. What I'm wondering now is, will they limit their free agency signings to 2-year deals in the summer, hoping to clear the books entirely by the time of Kobe's retirement.Heir, Prince of Cambridge

This team's success will come from the block; low post, high post and trade.Heir, Prince of Cambridge

It was kind of fun to have the Lakers-Celtics reignite their high profile rivalry, but I've had enough of them.
Current management in Lakerland is incompetent. Their competitive days are over until Buss Jr. gives up control of basketball operations. Until that time, they're set to become the West Coast Knicks."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard
