Why do you hate Kobe/Lakers?

Question

I don't wanna see your bs answers, cute nicknames, or life stories or anything like that...just tell me straight up why you guys always rip on them

Answer 1

hate? nah  - WAY too strong of an emotion, best reserved for terrorists and war criminals...

ACTUALLY, I have RESPECTED the "Showtime" Lakers featuring the likes of Magic and Kareem owing to their professionalism and behaving LIKE MEN win or lose (and never EVER threw their coach or teammates under the bus)...THAT rivalry and the HISTORIC rivalry between the C's (my favorite team) and the Minneapolis/LA Lakers is FUN and ENTERTAINING to me as a fan...

the current LA squad features a star player with ability AND A TON OF MEDIA HYPE that would have made ELVIS blush...a coach who is a mirror of his best player is: 50% performance/25% Right Place at the Right Time/25% PR and BS and a bunch of guys that could play either there or ANYWHERE else in the NBA and ten years from now FEW would remember...

HATE?  nope, more like traditional rivalry, contemporary disdain and some level of mocking annoyance...

Answer 2

because everyone knows that Kobe is the best player in the world and the Lakers are the only team that can have his talent. plus i bet all the haters out there are fans of another team and are pissing about the fact that they dont have a Kobe on their team.  

Answer 3

MVP ,BEST PLAYER IN THE WORLD,PLAYS IN GREAT WINNING CITY AND ON A GREAT TEAM ALL FOR STARTERS.

Answer 4

Why did men hate Jesus? not to compare the two. But why did they hate Him?

The scriptures says in some verses that they looked for Him to speak something that they might accuse Him,  .. and another "they hated Him with no reason. They never could find anything on the LORD yet they hated Him. I suppose because He was "out of this world".

Unfortunately for Kobe and being from this world, he gave his haters plenty to accuse him. Although Jesus would say!

He who has no sin, let HIM case the first stone. Jesus is the only one with the right to do so. Yet! He did not. "Forgive that you maybe forgiven."

"I LOVE THIS GAME"

Answer 5

i agree with you bro. im a laker fan and everyone who hates us and kobe should get a d**n life.

Answer 6

I think he is a great player and Lakers are a great team.  People rip on him because he is overhyped in the media and he is the top player in the NBa.  Success breeds envy.

Answer 7

did u see there last game they

suck

Answer 8

People hate the lakers because they are the best.

CELTICS SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 9

Hahaha.  I was reminded by a few Lakers fan like "Joel" and "Michael X" that since I'm a Celtics fans they rather I hate Lakers with a passion.  

Go ask them why they rather everyone hate Lakers.

You guys assumption that people hate lakers because they are the best is ridiculous.  The only thing they are the best at is getting whipped.

And if everyone who is a fan of a team other then Lakers are  haters then I'm a hater and most people here are haters.  You are hater as well.  You hate everyone but Lakers.  LOL.

Answer 10

i dont hate the lakers, they're just not my favorite team. actually, ive liked the lakers for a while, just that i prefer the celtics more

Answer 11

I don't hate Kobe or the Lakers I just don't prefer them. I think the Lakers are a great talented team but they are not ones I would root for because I don't know I just don't like 'em. And Kobe I have never hated Kobe I think he is an excellent player with amazing talent and skill but everyone thinks I'm a hater on here because I think Lebron is better then him. It makes no sense I'm allowed to have my own opinion and think people are better than Kobe with out being a hater.

Plus ya know it doesn't help that I'm a Suns fan and stuff with the whole division rivalry and now that we got Shaq the whole Shaq and Kobe stuff but its still all good no hate over here!!

Answer 12

i luv kobe\

ppl only hate the lakers and kobe beacuse they are unstopable

  

Answer 13

everybody hates him because he's the best player.. you can also tell x-factor jumped on the bandwagon(LoL!)

*rob* is the only REAL C's fan(real talk) here in the basketball section.

Answer 14

really..where are all the lakers haters at ...DMAN X-FACTOR show your faces lol

to answer your question cuz they have no life...fact is theyve got the best player in the league and the best in the west

Answer 15

Cuz Kobe has the most delusive fans in the world... and you don't need me to tell you why. Just go to any other Kobe vs Jordan questions around here. They are also whiny, too... still can't get over the 1-3 come back by the suns and, of course, this years' loss. Worst yet, they are dreaming about 2009 finals when other teams are making good trades. Dream one Lakers/Kobe fans.

Player wise, I actually didn't hate Kobe that much, but I really don't like Vujacic - the game's biggest cry baby (who actually cried after being crossed over by Ray Ray)

Answer 16

When he is compared to all active NBA players, the fans/media put him on a pedestal, They think he's the best and no other player comes close...I just can't figure it out, Shaq and Duncan have had the better careers (you would know, if you have watched basketball for over 10 years)...And look at LeBron's strong Stats this season, he was the best player last season....and the Kobe/Jordan comparision's which are annoying, give me a break.......

Answer 17

i hate them because they cannot shut up about kobe bryant

i ve always like the lakers but dem laker fans ruined everything

" lakers gonna win the title" "they are unstoppable" "kobe gonna rape boston celtics"

i have always respect mc, nickster, and europa they are a good fan

I am and will be always spurs fan  

Answer 18

Because Kobe is one of the most talented players in the League, and he wastes it with selfish play and an impossible ego to boot.  He sucks.

Answer 19

i dont..i think kobe is a great player..other people who hate him are just jealous of him..

Answer 20

His nick name says it all about him and his fans and there true nature. "Black Mamba"---I rest my case!

Answer 21

Ok, well for one, Kobe Bryant is a cry baby brat who demands to be appeased and must be or he'll demand a trade. His attitude never impressed me before Shaq left and he got even worse. I didn't HATE the Lakers for awhile.. I was OK with them but I never liked them.. Then I joined Y!A... The fans here are opressive and to be frank the majority of them are idiots, not all, but most.

An example of his attitude being to quote David Stern "An isolated case" is LeBron, for his ENTIRE career has had a S****y team and he hasn't demanded a trade, he's keeping quiet! I am a Cavs fan, trust me, I know my team is **** besides LeBron and we'll probably lose him in 2010 because our S****y staff won't do anything to help him. AND YET HE IS KEEPING HIS YAP SHUT AND SUPPORTING HIS TEAMMATES.

In summary, Lakers fans and the team's method of success recently along with their star's attitude pushed me over the edge, I watched the 2002 WCF and the refs were BSing the Kings so much and if I had any honor I'd admit a foul like when Kobe elbowed Bibby, plain BULLSHIT. They rip off another team, I don't care about cap, they got rid of KWAME BROWN for a franchise player. The fans, I explained before...

I pose you a question, Why do Lakers fans hate on everyone else?

Answer 22

I don't like Kobe, but Pau Gasol is my favorite player, and I like Radmonovic, so I guess I like the Lakers except Kobe and some of the other players.

Answer 23

I don't hate the lakers. I don't really like Kobe though, but truthfully, as much as it hurts it's because I'm a Lebron fan. So when Kobe does good, I get angry...when he does bad I'm happy.

I'm not like the stupid haters though who try and say that he sucks when really is the best player (for now) :)

Answer 24

he is a rapist.and got away with it.........
