If a Kobe/TMac deal were to happen (as some sources have speculated) it would probably have to look something like this:
You have to figure that the Lakers will want to dump a bad contract along with Kobe, since they can't get equal talent. Radmanovic is a PF, which is actually a need for Houston, so that might be a good fit.
The Lakers would also probably want expiring deals, which is why Wells and Sura fit the bill, even if Sura can't play anymore.
I also think Houston would have to add at least one draft pick.
LA also saves about $750K in this deal (which is really $1.5m, since both teams are over the tax threshold).
Kobe & Yao would be about as close as Kobe & Shaq as you could get.
