I think most of the players on the Lakers feel like Dwight does, it's only Kobe with this warped sense of urgency as if somehow storming off the court upset will make any difference as opposed to showing good sportsmanship and shaking hands with the opponents.
It's crazy how the cameras train on Dwight immediately after games to catch him smiling so these media outlets can fan the flames of the Laker turmoil, I know Dwight is miserable.Dude has to move like a drug dealer/ mafia type with talking into towels and having conversations looking away at the person so his lips can't be read.
If I was playing at the local gym and got beat by 25 I wouldn't even be smiling.
Idk if they have to have on some super tough face, but it does make fans angry when they take losses harder than the players. And I know the majority of players don't care as much as the casual fan, but the casual fan just wants to feel like they do.
It's like when my Rams were losing every game ... I was satisfied just knowing they played their hardest. Laker fans want to know the team is playing their hardest.
