Not a chance in this world do both guys leave the Lakers. In a recent article by Peter Vecsey of the NY Post he made mention that Kobe and Phil, both free agents at the end of the season, might be heading over to the Clippers locker room. I know that folks in New York would love for that to happen, giving them a better shot at landing LeBron, but really the Clippers. .

We show love to the Clippers and root for them when they are not playing the Lakers, but I have to believe that Kobe and especially Phil are way to smart to switch teams in Los Angeles. The Clippers luck is just so bad that if Kobe switched teams in training camp he would probably blow out his knee and they would not get Phil the right kind of “high chair” that he needs and cause both his repaired hips to dislocate.

Sorry Peter but there is no chance either one of those guys leaves, why would they. Ultimately Kobe and Phil want to win period end of story. The Lakers gives them both the best opportunity to do that. Sure there is the issue of money but do either one of them need anymore money. I can not see Kobe or Phil happy in a losing situation but raking in the dough. If there is any question, Kobe should ask Baron Davis how it feels, I bet Baron would much rather be making half the salary and be playing on the Lakers.

On another note at least the Clippers are not as bad as the Nets, sorry NY maybe next year.
