Uhhh maybe cause Kobe got washed by tearing his achilles while putting the entire team on his back
And the LAkers got criticized plenty over the final contract given to Kobe. And you can easily go back to Laker team threads from that time period across several forums and many laker fans were saying we need Kobe to go in order to move on to a new era.
Whereas Bron out here running Klutch PR bullshyt year after year, season after season. Got the franchise wrapped up in his sons bullshyt.
The fact yall act so obtuse about the clear differences just shows yall nikkas really got some weird emotional attachment to this nikkas Bron's existence or something. Kobe wasn't imposing a whole litany of extra bullshyt on the franchise. But Bron is still, to this day, forcing media narratives upon us daily but yall weirdos still crying about Kobe who went out like a fukking solider.
