Kobe / Pau dynamic -

Kobe - 1st option
Pau - 2nd option


You act like I'm talking to you about the laws of thermodynamics :dead:
Yea if you want to be simple...

But the Kobe /Pau dynamic encompasses alot more than a 1st/2nd option. They had amazing chemistry and we're a highly effective combo. One of the best G/F combos in recent history. But hey...I'll let you be intentionally dense

When it worked- it worked but the Kobe/Pau dynamic meant a whole lot of other bullsh*t as well. Whenever it didn't work Pau was the scapegoat from Kobe, the team, the local sports radio, the LA Times, etc. We get the wins when the duo was successful but when the loses came that over shadowed everything.

IMO its best not to mention any "you'll be my Pau-Shaq" comments and just go fresh and brand new from here on out. On some "we got a hungry young core, I"m(Kobe) ready to ball at a high level again", don't worry about touches-we'll feed you, we're gonna add more pieces later, beautiful new training facility coming, etc". F*ck all that past history role playing sh*t. Go fresh 'n' new

I'd be okay giving up TJones, D-Mo and a 1st round pick. But not too much more if LMA is serious about being a Rocket. I would hate to give up D-Mo but if you get LMA in return you can add LMA to D12 and Capela plus the rookie pf they drafted and Dorsey. That makes a good big man rotation. With the upgrade of the PG position and if Dekker can knock down 3's we got a squad that can seriously compete with GSW, OKC, SA in the West and win the whole thing.

Everyone would be cool with that. Thing is we'd have to trade Ariza as well. And pretty much anyone else making any type of money on the team.
