It's called a supporting cast. I mean, the Lakers without Kobe are the Grizzlies of '05: a team barely good enough to get the 8th seed in the West and then get swept. It's just Gasol, Odom, Fisher, Bynum, Vujacic, Farmar... does that scream great team? It's just awkward with out Kobe. But, when Kobe is in there, the pieces fit together perfectly and that makes them a great team.
But, there's no way he leaves what he has right now, a championship caliber team, for the Knicks. There's no way. The Big Z becomes Al Harrington, Mo Williams becomes Duhon, Ben Wallace becomes David Lee, and West becomes Nate Robinson. And the Knicks are totally counting on potential future. Who's to say they even get anyone during free agency? Chris Bosh and Amare haven't said that they're going to New York. Nothing is guaranteed or set in stone. And with the way things are going right now in Cleveland, the only time New York will see LeBron in 2010 is when he's lighting up the MSG for 50+ points.
