Lakers-Mavs Trade Talks
1:47 PM
I have learned from some of a credible source that the Lakers and Kobe Bryant have decided that it is no longer in the best interest of either side for him to continue to practice with the team. It seems as if trade talks are in the works right now and all indications point to Dallas being the destination for Kobe Bryant. It seems that Kobe has played his last game as an L.A. Laker. More to come as I get it.

I am hearing that Dirk is definitely involved. The negotiations are between sending Josh Howard, Devin Harris, or expiring contracts. LA is trying to get a player plus contracts. Dallas is obviously trying to send over the least that they can.

Kobe Bryant has returned to practice with the team, after initial reports saying he would no longer do so. All questions regarding any rumors are being answered with “No comment” and we have not heard from Bryant since yesterday afternoon. Bryant is listed as “Questionable” for the teams upcoming preseason game.
