Free Agency
It's that simple and now I will explain for those of you who don't understand. If Kobe does not play this season and goes into the summer with a wimper, everyone including free agents will wonder if Kobe can still play and there will be a huge doubt to sign with a town saddled with one of the highest paid guards in the NBA that might never play again. If Kobe, however finishes with a pattern of being close to what he was - even with a drop in his steps, they will know that with a nice first round draft pick and two good signings, that the Lakers will be able to rebuild quickly.
