Not everyone is you man! Multiple people have said Kobe was on the phone multiple times with CP3 last week, sounds friendly enough for me. And as far as the friends thing with Chandler, these dudes still all talk and have a connection.....and you know these new-jack superstars(w/ the exception of D Rose) all want to be on the same squads now lol.

Money wise, 5 billion over 25 years with the new cable deal. You can go over the cap to re-sign a player.
