Now that Kobe is trying...
...to recruit Carmelo, does that shatter the idea that he is somehow above colluding with other superstars?

Carmelo is a "superstar?"

Re: Now that Kobe is trying...
He wasn't even at the meeting..
Besides theres a difference between a proven winner at 36 years old coming off injury wanting to play with an all star and a prime MVP wanting to run to a proven winners team before he has won anything.

Re: Now that Kobe is trying...
Kobe stans will say it's okay because he's old, even though Kobe has been doing this for years!
2 years ago both Nash and Howard were very hesitant about going to the Lakers, but Kobe got on the phone with both of them and begged them to join him. Fcking beta.

The Lakers have not met yet with LeBron James' agent. Nor are there any plans for a meeting, even though they'd like one. A lot.

How is he not? He's got every team in the league bending over backwards to get him. He's a bigger superstar than Bosh when they said it was a big 3.

Re: Now that Kobe is trying...
People really don't understand the difference between 2010 and now. I'll TRY and simplify it for you and why people say the big 3 colluded.
The big 3 got together and decided where they wanted to play. They colluded as to which team it was and could have ended up anywhere but signed with the Heat. Wade didn't recruit them to Miami and that was it, they were talking over every available option and meeting with different teams about the possibility.
Melo is visiting teams that already have established players and it's not him and Kobe talking about which team they're going to handpick to be on. That is the difference here. If Kobe turned down the Lakers contract and went on the FA market with Melo and the two went on a world tour together, collusion.

Re: Now that Kobe is trying...
bosh, wade and lebron were clear top 10 players in the nba at the time when they colluded and in their primes. kobe is not top ten anymore, he is coming off a major injury and is close to retiring... no where near the same thing

Weren't you one of those fakkits criticizing Kobe for not taking a pay cut? Now he's colluding because he's meeting with a friend and free agent.

Actually I don't think there's anything wrong with what he's doing. I don't think there's anything wrong with what LeBron, Wade, and Bosh did either. The entire point is that players are choosing their own destinies to a greater degree than in years past. I'd rather see players choose their own fate than GMs doing it.
I'm just bringing it up because Kobetards are always blah blah blah about how Kobe is some courageous alpha dog who would never want to play second fiddle or share the spotlight with another superstar and it's obviously just as much a myth as the idea that he's some clutch god.
P.S. I love Kobe and he's one of my favorite players of all time. I just hate most of his fans.
