why do people act like Kobe never exsisted?

[Jesus Is Lord]

Lebron is killing right now, why talk about Kobe. Sports is mostly about, "what have you done for me lately?", and Kobe been gone 2 years. Let Lebron have his shine, he deserves it. Ignore Lebron stans, theyre lame.

 

[DatNkkaCutty]

Fuk that MJ knockoff...


Bron is better...

Other Laker greats were better...

(Kareem...Magic...Wilt...his own teammate Shaq in his prime).

Kobe is a stan GOAT...not in the discussion of GOAT...


Now pour it on fukbois....

Can't believe I saw someone say, "white people hate Kobe"

On to the thread, he's fukking brought up every single day by his delusional-ass fans. People like Kobe, but his fans are the most annoying motherfukkers on earth.

Why are Kobe fans so insecure

See below

Like OG Ronaldo real ones know what it is though.

Kobe

nikka musta just got out from doing a 5 year bid

kobe always get brought up....whenever lebron or mj get talked about

breh 1: 'man it sure was raining a lot in cleveland today'
breh 2: 'never rained when kobe was a laker breh'

Mother nature is afraid of Goatbe

You sick.
Cacs HATE LeBron

They been hating him since he was 18 and driving a Hummer to his prom. They talked all kinds of shyt about him and called him every name under the son.

Last year when someone wrote some racist stuff on one of his gates at home cacs every where were saying he was making it up. The I Can’t Breathe shirts, the Tamir Rice incident..cacs can’t stand LeBron

ever since 2003, Kobe has been top 3 most hated black man. Cacs hate Bron based off his choices in his career like changing teams but there's a deep rooted hate for Kobe since that white girl lied on him. it's deeper than basketball

 

[Boonapalist]

Also most of the Kobe stans I encountered in real life tended to be Mexican or Asian. And they don’t really have as big a voice in sports media compared to us and white folk.

I think most nikkas and whites are either ambivalent towards Kobe, or they just flat out hate him.

 

[Remote]

The analytics crowd which make up most of these podcasts you are referring to hate Kobe
Kobe and analytics didn't mix too well, atleast at the beginning of analytics, and most of that crowd never gave Kobe a second look.

Word? It’s the analytics fault?

The same analytics that highly rate every single top 10 player (without analytics)?

Advanced metrics all rate Jordan, Kareem, Magic, Chamberlain, Duncan, Shaq...all of them as supreme players.

The metrics are mysteriously biased against one guy.

Seems plausible.

 

[SadimirPutin]

people act like Kobe never existed

Yet I see a cult of circle jerkers bringing kobe up on this forum all the time

get the fukk outta here

 

[madness]

kobe got pushed to the back burner. doesn't help that there are a bunch of current players (bron, steph, KD) who make the same circus, jaw-dropping shots and clutch buzzer beaters kobe stans used to fawn over, and they do it without the corny scowls and without going 9-25 every night. bean still in my top 40 all-time, no love lost.

TAKE THE JUMP FOR INSTANCE-YOULL HEAR THAT TROLL LOOK BIITCH SAY SOME SHIIT LIKE

“LEBRON IS MAKING IT LOOK SO EASY, REMINISCENT OF PAST GREATS LIKE JORDAN, MAGIC, RUSSELL”

IT HAPPENS REGULARLY

You wouldn't be watching if that happened regularly. The people I know who sit around all day watching these stupid sports talk shows are all like you and they need to be catered to. If they aren't getting what they need, they'll go to Jerry springer or whatever bullshyt daytime shows they're marketing to the unemployed these days.

That threads like this even exist just shows how numb everyone has become to all of the kobestanning. That it's threadworthy that they're not randomly name dropping Kobe when LeBron is playing at a level that Kobe never touched

Morning and daytime tv shows of any genre contribute so much to the anti intellectualism in this country. These shows are about nothing but petty drama or in the case of the sports variety, a pair of talking heads shouting their usually way off target arguing point without any coherent thought to back it up. It should be very telling that an actual film breakdown of what does and doesn’t work on the court or a breakdown of why certain lineups and offensive sets do or don’t work doesn’t draw, but these idiots contradicting themselves so shamelessly does.

NOT REALLY DUMBASS .. I WATCH THESE SHOWS FOR THE LATEST UPDATES ON WHATS GOING ON IN THE LEAGUE, NOT FOR KOBE TALK SMFH


LIKE I SAID, KOBE IS REGULARLY SKIPPED OVER IN TALKS THAT CENTER AROUND NBA GREATS IN GENERAL (NOT JUST LEBRON)


SINCE U (SELF ADMITTEDLY) DONT WATCH THESE SHOWS, U WOULDNT KNOW

 

[RammerJammer]

Kobe is very much disrespected on here and in the media.
