WOULD LAKER DEAL FOR KG KEEP KOBE IN LIPSTICK CITY? Patrick Reusse of the MINNEAPOLIS STAR-TRIBUNE lays out a reasonable scenario which would no doubt keep Kobe esconsced in Lipstick City - thanks to the acquisition of Malibu resident Kevin Garnett: “If Garnett does get traded, the logical location remains the Los Angeles Lakers.

“For the Lakers, that would shut up Kobe Bryant and make tickets inside the Staples Center almost as tough to get as they were when Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal were together.

“This would require McHale pushing Indiana out of the way in the Pacers attempt to trade Jermaine O’Neal to the Lakers for a package including Andrew Bynum, Luke Walton (sign and trade), Kwame Brown and the 19th pick in the draft. Throw in Brian Cook with that package and the money would work for Garnett to go to the Lakers.”
Throw in Brian Cook? More like throw up. But it does make sense, considering Wolves fans are now well-acquainted with that involuntary bodily function.
