Default Where's Kobe Headed?

As everyone knows,Kobe Bryant wants out of L.A.I saw that the Mavs offered the Lakers Josh Howard and Jason Terry.Not bad,but it's not enough for the best player in the game.I also heard the Chicago Bulls offered Gordon,Nocioni and Tyrus Thomas.I like Ben Gordon and still think he can be a star in the league,but that package does not make the Lakers a contender.I also don't know if Chicago is the right place for Kobe,because every move he makes will be compared to Michael Jordan.

In my eyes,the perfect fit for Kobe would be Houston.Ship him to the Rockets for a package including Tracy McGrady and a 1st round pick.I think Kobe and Yao would be an awesome combo.Kobe would get to play with a superstar who doesn't need to touch the ball on every play.And the Lakers would be getting a superstar in return,along with some pieces to build for their future,without taking a step back.

What are your thoughts?Where do you think Kobe will end up?Where would you like to see him go?

My gut feeling is the Lakers will try to keep him--but sounds more and more like that won't happen with recent reports of the owner saying he would trade Kobe if the right deal was occur. If he goes I got to believe the Lakers would not want to play against but twice a year so if he is shipped out of LA I would say to a East team. That would be pretty difficult move to make unless they sent him to Miami for Wade and a couple of players (wouldn't that be funny). Chicago has some nice young players they could pakage up as well. I don't see Cleveland trading LeBron but maybe after he wore a Yankees hat to a Indians home game---plus there been hints of James threatning to leave. I just don't really see a good trade in fair value being made for any team including the Lakers.
Where to see Kobe go I would go with the Suns just so my team does not have to see him but a couple of times a year like now.
just my feelings which are about as worthless as a three dollar bill

Well i dunno...If kobe keeps crying they could ship him to bobcats to be mean lol...They got rid of shaq for a bunch or no good players just like KG being traded for a bunch of nobodys...I dont think any team has what it takes to trade for him but you never know!--wouldnt it be funny if he went to denver for camby,iverson lol i dont think he would fit good with the rockets unless they send like Tmac,francis and someone because kobe isnt gonna want someone else to score 30+ like him because he's selfish...I think the best fit could be maybe Nets! Send out Vince,RJ and a draft pick for him--he could do really well with Kidd but we'll see!
