Why don't fans respect Kobe as much as his peers?

He doesn't have his own identity. It's like some dudes being the best Beatles cover band on Earth. No matter how good they are, they'll always be looked at as a fake version of The Beatles.

nikka this is sports, not psychobabble.

Dog, when I say I didn't read something, I really didn't. Like I said, you call it hating cause I don't think he's the best ever, how can I take your opinion seriously.

who said he's the best ever

the legends and current players only said he's the best of this era

you seem to be arguing against a straw man cause you can't refute the argument that Kobe ain't the best of THIS ERA according to his peers

Well baseball is the gayest sport ever so your post really says a lot.

But are you denying that Kobe blatantly idolizes another man beyond his teenage years? Name one current NBA who still practices Jordan moves in his bedroom with a ball of socks? This is no coincidence. Kobe continues to intentionally dikkrides at the age of 34.

Oh, my bad. Didn't realize I was replying to an 8-yr. old.
