Kobe is a class act, sitting out All Star game

[Blazer Fanatic]

That's not even the case. I have nothing against BF. But if BF's going to start attacking people and post jab's then I'll fire back a built-in smiley worth a good laugh.

Blazer Fanatic, get over yourself and stop trolling. I hate Kobe like the majority of you, but your response about Kobe was a complete troll reply, in which you fully knew was going to stir up shit. Give it a rest. We've already went rounds and rounds on this board about his "rape" and other "crimes". Like my reply said, you're beating a dead horse...

Posting about Fakers who are anything but classy on the Official Blazer forum is totally cool though right? You can make fun of my posts without being a misogynist. I have faith in you.

Uh, I didn't start the topic, take that up with someone else. And to answer the last part; yes, I know I can. thanks

You didn't add anything related to the topic either. Let me know when the light bulb comes on.

You're absolutely right. I did take the time to call you out for starting this whole trolling response theme. So YOU let me know when you're illuminated. Nice effort, but try again.

I wonder how many people in this thread, are the same dipwits who would chant "Kobe sucks" at the RG like he isn't good.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

You're absolutely right...

You had me at "You're absolutely right." Way to ruin a perfectly great start to a post. People are allowed to post their opinion on the topic. I hope this isn't news.

If you're going to make it your "job" to play "forum police", and personally insult people with whom you don't like their opinion on a given topic, then accept the consequences of being "that guy" and me making fun of your post for having nothing to offer.

except for Eric apparently who gets told its ironic he thinks Kobe is classy

I am sure there are a few. Me I always rooted for Kobe to get 50 and for the Lakers to lose.

I always wanted him to do bad against us lol. But that doesn't take away from how crazy good he is and fun to watch. I cringed when the Kobe sucks chant would happen cause a) it was embarrassing how uneducated it made us klook, and b) pissed off Kobe was scary

So when Laker fans used to chant "BOSTON SUCKS!!" back in the '80s, and even in the NBA Finals a few years ago, that made them uneducated, too?

Feel free to quote where I typed that KingSpeed was not allowed to post his opinion, or where I personally attacked him.

 

[Wheels]

Mainly I guess the chant made us look very "little brother" which was also embarrassing I guess

Just that its ironic or unfortunate that he has the opinion he shared. No biggie you keep doing your thing

I don't enjoy "hero ball" for 48 minutes, but that's unrelated to my opinion of his lack of class.

Of course but I blame the stupid NBA for this and not the fans. Going to NBA is just not as fun as it should be, I hate buying better seats than someone then being told I need to sit down. I hate getting in trouble for cussing about poor play, poor calls, or just cursing in general cause it is more fun to do in public.

See if the NBA allowed good chants and people to be passionate at their games you would have heard "Fuck You Boston" instead and then the world would know those fans hate Boston and they are awesome for cursing.

Most def entitled to that opinion. I just decided to give in and respect the warrior he is on the court. Him ripping my heart out a billion times did that to me.

I don't wish to get into why the original post is either unfortunate or ironic, but it's definitely not a personal attack. You either get it or you don't. It doesn't make anyone stupid for not getting it. It's just my opinion on the post. To each their own.

I enjoy more of an original chant if it involves cursing and calling out another team. I.e. timbers chant "we are the Timbers and we are the best, we are the Timbers so F*** all the rest! F***em all F*** em all! Vancouver, Seattle Montreal!" Repeat all

I want Kobe to suck. I need him to suck! The sad truth about Kobe Bryant is that he only had 3 seasons where he had a PER that was >25. He's always been a high-volume/USG player who was never in MJs or LBJs league as a player. A hard worker, sure, and he got the most out of his relatively limited talents with his a-hole demeanor and flat out "I don't give a shit!" goofiness.

 

[Wheels]

Lol! I miss the thread with those pictures! Prepped for reminding me

I was being tongue-in-cheek about Laker fans being uneducated. They are all uneducated, and some of their 'celebrity' fans are now going to Clipper games.

What was Boston's anti-LA chant for many years? "BEAT LA! BEAT LA!" That's pretty cool, on point, and makes sense without looking stupid.

You didn't, just clarifying. You did imply I was suggesting he isn't allowed to post, which I didn't. I may not understand why, but that doesn't mean I'm saying he can't.

Problem is they do not allow beautiful chants like that at the Moda Center

this thread is pathetic. Kobe Bryant is an amazing basketball player. Hating him because he is a laker is funny and juvenile. As a basketball fan he is a joy to watch.

Regardless of what has happened in the past (don't want to get into my thoughts on the chick he "raped"), this was a classy move by Kobe. And for Kobe to have singled out Damian Lillard as a guy who deserves to be in the All Star game, makes me like him more.

This thread is pathetic because it should have been merged into the All-Star Starter thread. Lots of love for Bryant in that thread for making the decision to sit out the AS game because he didn't deserve it this season. Even more props to him because of what he said about Lillard a few weeks ago. Bryant wasn't seeking votes, and wanted fans to vote for players who deserved it based on this year. I respect the hell out of that decision. Kobe's turned into a good ambassador for the NBA, and is a veteran player who gets it.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

So classy for a guy that can't play to sit out of a game he wouldn't play in even if he suited up for the game. So classy. lol

How many injured players at his level have gone on record while votes are still being cast to basically say 'don't vote for me?'
