Question

Not that it'll happen, Hypothetically speaking Between Kobe Lebron Who would Be more likely to Play internationally? i'd say Kobe would because, he grew Up Playing international Ball so it'll be second nature for im to Play for a team like italy. But then again a case can be made for lebron in 10', there's a international team that MAY be vying for lebron in 10' UNLIKELY but it is a thought, And without a salary cap overseas they can throw Any amount at Him. What do ya'll think?

Answer 1

yes.

Answer 2

Yeah I don't think that would ever happen because who would choose another country rather than playing in the NBA? But...hypothetically, I'd say Kobe since he great up in Italy. I didn't know he grew up playing international ball but he's already well acquainted with the country and knows the language so yeah, definitely Kobe over Lebron.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Lebron the goal is to small for him

Answer 5

The Greek Olympiacos (the team that stole away Chilldress) is owned by two billionaire brothers and they have said recently that they plan to make an offer to LeBron during the summer of '10. Its not probable, but its definitely possible considering Europe has no salary cap and LeBron is trying to become a international marketing icon. The only way either of them would consider it is if they won a 'chip before their contracts expired.

Answer 6

At this point, I'd say LeBron. The no salary cap and tax free salary are huge. He won't state it publicly of course, but LeBron would like to beat Tiger to being the first billionaire athlete more than win an NBA championship. Cleveland management doesn't seem capable of helping him out with that anyway. Considering the overwhelming endorsements he'd get in whichever team could throw the most cash in the first place, he'd be well on his way.

Kobe does love Italy and all, but he's over thirty, and now that the Lakers have an adequate team to win a Shaq-free championship or two, I doubt he'll bolt across the Atlantic for a few extra million.
