If the Lakers are to trade Kobe, here are some options. Keep in mind I don't know all contract situations and if there would need to be any sign and trades done or other minor players added to make the deals work. In no order:
Boston would send the Paul Pierce, Gerald Green and the #5 pick in the draft in exchange for Kobe and the Lakers' #19.
NJ would send Vince Carter, Nenad Krstic and the #17 pick for Kobe.
Atlanta would send Joe Johnson, Tyronne Lue and the #3 pick for Kobe.
A little less metropolitan but Charlotte would send Gerald Wallace, Emeka Okafur, and two picks (#8 and 22) for Kobe and Kwame Brown.
