@hawkeye10,
I would say Dwight is a bit blameless, but I can't because he signed a one year deal and should be producing more than he has been...
But to be honest, I would not want to play for a team long term if I had to deal with egomaniacs like Kobe, and Phil myself...regardless of how good these men are at the game...and their positions...
To whoever stated the notion that Kobe should just be traded, since he is near the beginning of the end, and who you could get for him in return...It is not really a bad idea...And it honesty would probably be the best thing they could do for the future of the franchise...but the problem is, is that after all he has done in his career, the Lakers have an unspoken etiquette...and are going to give Kobe everything till he retires, and keep him there, and any new comer would have to deal with his attitude...
