Xero Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 I read this in the Tribune... "On the first day of free agency, the Bulls unexpectedly contacted representatives of Kobe Bryant." Wow, if we got Kobe, that would be awesome He said that he wants to go to a team in which he will be the leader, and with the roster the Bulls have he might consider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxman352000 Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 It won't happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Nope, won't happen. Can't blame the Bulls for sticking their toe in the water, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Read in the Tribune that the Bulls could only offer him like $5 mill a year with their cap space. Not sure how it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Read in the Tribune that the Bulls could only offer him like $5 mill a year with their cap space. Not sure how it works. They'd have to do a sign-and-trade, and I don't see who the Lakers would want on the Bulls who makes enough money to make the trade happen. It's a good PR move, though, to at least make it look like the Bulls want big-name guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsSuck1 Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Kobe's an amazing player, but he's a rapist. He'd help our team A TON, but he won't be coming here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YASNY Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Kobe will probably be playing for Colorado State Penitentiary (sp?) next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Kobe will probably be playing for Colorado State Penitentiary (sp?) next season. I assume he'll get alley ooped on many a times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiff Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 No way he would ever play for Jordan's old team. He couldn't take the pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 If he did come, it wouldn't be because the Bulls could offer the best package, unless of course the Lakers want to rebuild for a few years. However, the reason I could see the Lakers doing it with the Bulls is that they deal him out of conference to a team they may think won't be able to compete. They aren't going to want to put a competitor over teh top in a deal, however, a team thats down and nowhere they may not thikn Kobe would be able to win it all. Still, I don't think Kobe is going anywhere. He'll be a Laker (90% sure or a Clipper 5% sure). Which means their is 5% he goes elsewhere.

HuskyCaucasian Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Kobe will probably be playing for Colorado State Penitentiary (sp?) next season. If I am the team that signs this guy, i put a clause in his contract. THis can take the form of one or two differant ways (i dont know the rules fo the CBA)... 1) A clause that makes his contract null and void if he is sent to jail 2) His first year i slocked in, but the remaining years are a club option. Meaning, if he is put n jail, the club can just drop him after his first "season" witht he team. BUT, if he does not go to jail, the team can pick up the option on the remaining years of his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 They'd have to do a sign-and-trade, I wonder who the BUlls would have to give up in return. A CHicago paper did an article on who the Bulls would have to give up just to match Shaqs contract. It was like 7 players for one. SO, if the BUlls DID do a sign and trade for Kobe, it would be the block buster or all block busters. We are talkin at LEAST Chandler, Captin Kirk, Crawford, Gordon, JYD, and Davis.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 I don't want any part of, Kobe. To me he's one of those guys you would rather lose without than win with. He's seflish, spoiled, and arrogant. Not to mention he got a 9 time world champion coach fired. Now he's about to get the most dominant center of the last 30 years or so traded. Most of his teamates can't stand him. Not that we had a chance anyway. But i'm against it either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
