Kobe Bryant ‏@kobebryant

At least lil @CP3 and baby Mamba can play together NBA can't veto this one Ha! pic.twitter.com/pJAjr2wJ





I just thought this was cute to share but I didn't know if it would fit in the Lakers "news" area. Even still, great picture, nice to see Paul and Kobe are still close.


Now that you have his children Mamba... RECRUIT RECRUIT RECRUIT!! lol

As do I. Him and Paul played with a natural synergy and really paul can go off for 30 at any given moment just like Kobe. To be honest Mitch and both Buss's were brilliant, they'd have traded Odom and Gasol RIGHT before their games fell off and got us Chris Paul, we'd be under the tax and would have went on to sign Dwight anyway.

Thats why the league complained and why Stern vetoed it. Cause mitch and both buss's mastered the new CbA the moment it came out.

If we had Kobe - CP3 - Bynum trio last season, we would have won the title, and maybe a few more. Stern and other owners saw that just like our FO did.

I will curse Stern until my last days. That vetoed trade prevented the Lakers from winning multiple championships. CP3-Kobe-Bynum would have been unstoppable.

I think it's Gianna, the younger one.

So an NBA owner does not have a right to say "no" to a trade? There is a difference between the league disapproving a trade and an owner doing so. Do some reading.

The CP3 to LA saga was finished a long time ago. Hope management can find a way to snatch Irving from Cleveland and form our Irving-D12-Clark trio.

And what marketable assets do we have to get Irving? What would motivate Cleveland to give him up even if we had tradeable assets?

He gave the the gm of the team, whoever it was, the power to make trade for the team. He makes a trade, a pretty decent one, and then Stern goes back on what he says. It [expletive]ed up the chemistry for Houston and the Lakers. It was unethical.

It would take a lot to get him, but Mitch has "robbed" GMs before.

I hope Kobe doesn't get fined for this. Stern may bring out the "unethical conduct and behavior" card.

[DameC24]

This is cute. I doubt Kobe will get fined over this. But then again, we are talking about Stern. So anything is possible.

[Majesty]

Well the world got to see a little of what Kobe and CP3 can do in the court together. They played with a natural chemistry.

The reality is, if for some reason dwight didn't resign with us we COULD make a run at CP3 especially if the Clippers lose in the 2nd round again. But I won't hold my breath
