older cats 30+ remember that dirty unnecessary shyt kobe did. most saw it for what it was though (crab in a barrel shyt) because him and shaq was going at it during that time. most accept kobe as a socially awkward lame, not really connected to the black community, but we respect his bball greatness. as long as it stays about bball kobe is safe.Nah a lot of people still don't respect him for snitching on Shaq. They respect what he did on the court but always remember that shaq incident.
lol @ this thread still going though. insecure kobe stans and dudes who ain't even laker fans forming like voltron with the bron hate.
but for real i dont get why people even care about their opinions anymore. these dudes just can't help themselves. bron is still one of the goats both on and off the court, but he can't hit that supersaiyan level as much as he used to. just hope he dont run himself into the ground at the end of his career like kobe did.
