Calm down their cheif. Its related because only a team who's fanbase is insecure about Bron being better than their childhood idol is gonna get upset by this.

You mentioned outside the city limits of L.A so its absolutely related. Learn what them big words mean before you start throwing em around.

If pussy ASS KD came to the Heat, I still wouldn't like the dude, but I'd root for him as hard as anybody. Cause thats my team.


You seem to have no clue what I actually said. And are still basing your whole argument off a lazy and simple minded assumption.

Its all good though. You mean well.


LMAO dog, I dont know what you said? Thats all you can come up with when people say stuff you don't like? As long as you feel smart homey.


You asked a question that the answer to would be completely irrelevant to my point. You lmao just makes you seem more clueless tbh

As he's going to root for the Warriors as well as the Lakers, while simultaneously hoping Lebron somehow fails. But maybe he can clear it up.


If that's what he means he needs to convey that. As written it reads more like he will root for the warriors and not the Lakers until LeBron leaves.

If the bulls did something to make me angry I wouldn't say "I'm just going to be a Mavs fan until x player leaves".


Fair enough.

For Detroit in my opinion it has to be Tracy McGrady and Richard Hamilton. The mutiny against Joh Kuester was the saddest thing I remember happened in our history. Yes Kuester was a clown as a head coach, he was hopeless and clueless, yes Rip was in a terrible situation because he signed a contract extension and was played by Joe Dumars who made him promisses and days later traded Chauncey for AI, however, nothing justify that attitude.

Rip has his jersey retired by the Pistons, he did amazing things for the franchise, however that episode erased all those good things he did. As for T-Mac I think this video is enough. He was a loser his entire career, such a talented player and he never won ****.

Technically, wouldn't PG13 be more of a fiancée who got cold feet, leaving you at the altar on your wedding day? :lol:

I personally don't hate Ray Allen. I just added him because a lot of Celtics fans still hold a grudge against him.

If there's anyone I really consider a bastard son (personally for me), it's Antoine Walker. I still hate his guts till this day.

Never pass up an opportunity to add a Walker shimmy pic when it presents itself... :lol:

If "Lebron fails", the Lakers fail. There's really no way around that...

I'm not gonna put in three times the effort you have in any of your posts and rewrite everything you said in my own words. The only thread the argument of my 'not knowing what you're saying' hangs on is that you may mean something very particular by 'kobe-fan', like someone whos not a Lakers fan but actually a Kobe fan. But if so why would you begin the statement with 'the only Lakers fans...' So if their was a lack of clarity you can only fault yourself.

thanks for backing me up

it seems that people do not believe that there is a sizable portion of laker fans who do not want lebron on the team

we will be paying a 34 year old lebron 40 mil a year while he marginalizes ingram, lonzo, kuz and hart

how exciting!


That's laughable. Guys like Kuz, Ingram, and Lonzo just hit the basketball lottery. Lebron's putting those guys on the map.

Right, as if "Laker fans" weren't already huge Warrior fans for at least 3 seasons now :rolleyes:

Kobe fans will latch on to anything they consider a threat to LeBron. They are the only fanbase you will ever see supporting KD (besdies GS fans). It's amazing what LeBron has done to you guys.

But if so why would you begin the statement with 'the only Lakers fans...' So if their was a lack of clarity you can only fault yourself.


Your wording here confused the hell out of me, but it made me realize the same thing could have happened to you. I'll explain again.

I said the narrative of Laker fans who dont want Lebron as being "Kobe-only fans" (and thus, not true Laker fans) is lazy and simple-minded. The mere fact that there are countless non-Laker/non-Kobe fans who don't like Lebron either is evidence that there are, in fact, many non-Kobe related reasons to dislike him. Which anyone who hasn't been living under a rock for the past 10 years should already know.

Calling Laker fans who don't want Lebron "Kobe-only fans" is just an ultra convenient, super lazy way to take shots at a fanbase and burn as little calories as possible to post, without having to do any of the 1.3 seconds of critical thinking it takes to realize "oh yeah, duh, Lebron is one of the most polarizing figures in sports history and there are an endless number of reasons to dislike him that have absolutely nothing to do with Kobe Bryant."

Its basically implying if Kobe never existed, all these same fans would like Lebron.... you know, discounting the dozens of reasons there are not to.

Its low hanging fruit, and anyone who sees a Laker fan not on board with Lebron James and automatically assumes they are a fan of Kobe Bryant only, and not the Lakers, is not even attempting to use their brain.
