I've always wondered how Kobe stans rationalize his career mediocre .447 FG% and abysmal .329 3P%
I was a Celtic fan when Jordan surpassed Magic and Bird. Celtic fans were not happy but my first Love was Bruins hockey.
I drove Dennis Johnson to work and gushed some stupid fan gush that praised the Celtic team instead of specifically praising DJ. I felt bad afterwords because I felt like I sounded like a racist fan of the great white hope. I was actually more of a Cedric Maxwell fan than I was a Bird fan so I did not take it so hard when Jordan passed Bird.
But from hearing how hurt the Bird fans were from being passed by Jordan I could relate to the pain of the Kobe fans being passed by LeBron. Humans are nuts and will figh wars over what is the true religion. As far as I know Kobe fans and LeBron fans never resorted to violence. I hope Trump lovers and Trump haters never resort to violence but humans are crazy so anything is possible.
The facts backed LeBron over Kobe but facts don’t matter when emotional loyalty is strong.
