If there is justice in sports; then Kobe will spend the rest of his NBA career with good personal stats, an also ran team, and no big man inside. I’m not a Lakers fan and I was indifferent to their latest three championships. But the idea of a petulant superstar forcing the breakup of a still potent lineup while not making a personal commitment to improvement is repugnant. Shaq goes East in a trade that Kobe and the Lakers will regret.
