Seriously now. If we judged bball players by what they only do on the court and not off the court, there will be totally different perceptions onplayers like ron artest, starbury, etc. We, fans, hear stories like how artest is from queensbridge and how he grew up in the hood and everything. With that,we stereotypically assume he is a straight ghetto dude or whatvr. Same with other players that came from real grimey areas. Now back to Kobe. Kobe grew up inItaly and played in Philly too. He was from the suburbs. And once again, stereotypically, we expect suburbanites to play with less "swagger" in theirgame and etc. But what we see from Kobe is quite the opposite. I don't even need bring up his personal life. Kobe can be cocky all he want but hedidn't grow up in that kind of environment that suggests he would be like that. It is a stereotype but at the same time, we, the public have made it astereotype. If Yao Ming started talking trash like Kobe... Fans would be clownin him too. But Yao Ming doesn't. He plays his part in the stereotype ofAsians. Not saying you have to stay within your stereotype, but come on, there will be hate and there will be dislike when you try to change or be different.Especially, when you try to hard to be something you are not. Word to Kobe Bryant feat. Tyra Banks - K.O.B.E. And besides, Kobe is and was never an underdog inlife. I don't hate on people that have been well off ever since birth, but people need to play their part and be respectful too.Originally Posted by Fro B Giant

This is how I feel about Kobe and the persona, but this does not effect my basketball opinions, the fact that Kobe is the best player on the planet. He just happens to also be the biggest douche on the planet.
Because he knows he is the best at what he does? Because he will tell a player he can't guard him? That the face guarding doesn't work? Because of his personal life being made public? If you had skills like that I guarauntee you that you would be boasting about it. I mean nobody can guard him 1 on 1. His personal life is his personal life, how does that affect you? Get over it dude, worry about yourself, I bet Kobe doesn't lose one ounce of sleep because he is up thinking about how you don't like him.
Eh.. I think he's a douche and a bastard.. Selfish.. And can't see how anyone who's not from LA (or a Lakers fan from before) can be aKobe fan..Originally Posted by HighRep87

He is the most manipulative and fake NBA player, a shameless self promoter, and a dirty player/human being.

All of a sudden the Shaq/Kobe feud takes off... Kobe has the trouble with his wife and Colorado... and ever since he's a marked man around these parts, with an entire camp of "haters".
Maybe that doesn't mean you - but we're talking about the vast majority of people here.
