    No, you are wrong, if you can read the posts, they hate the person, not the player, they respect that he plays good, but they hate him because, he is an arrogant, egocentric, ballhogger.

    I need a "used to hate him, now just don't root for him" option

    Like is too strong a word for how I feel about him these days, but so is hate.

    Ballhog who averages the same number of assists as Tracy.
    5.
    Same ballhog who runs plays for his teammates.

    Let me say this:

    In the first half, maybe third quarter too, he was passing the balls to his teammates (thats were he gets the assists) and the lakers were up, but in the last quarter, the celtics took the lead, and kobe wanted to be the hero, so he start shooting and missing, instead of passing to his teammates, and then the lakers lose.

    Here is a part of an article that explains the arrogant attitude of Kobe:

    the Lakers – Bryant included – did a poor job of passing the ball and trying to shift Boston’s defense. Jackson told Bryant he might want to look for some of his open teammates. Bryant’s reply? He told Jackson his own shots were open enough – even though he missed 17 of the 26 he attempted.

    Here it is the link for that article: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=jy-lakersadvantage060608&prov=yhoo&type=lgns

    Maybe that because the Celtics defense stopped the entire lakers, When youre down by 10 or so. Of course the star is just going to jack up shots with 1 minute to go.

    Don't take any offense to this, unless you're one of the nut huggers.

    They weren't down 10 when Kobe started to jack up shots and stopped moving the ball.

    So the Lakers got more talented and Kobe can now pass the ball? :rolleyes:

    Tmac used to and still does pass to players like chuck hayes, rafer alston, luther head. Going back, Ryan Bowen, Juwon Howard, David Wesley....

    Lets put it this way....if he got hit by an asteroid, and died, I would be sad....because there would be more Kobe threads.

    I hate him....my brother is a Laker fan since he moved to LA, and it embarasses me.

    JD: why you didnt response the other part of my post, thats says that your own coach tells you to pass the ball to your teammates, and kobe responds that his shots was open enough, and he missed 17 of 26 shots.

    Here is my response to the tmac video you post it:

    Oh well, he still got 24 points. Still got to the line.
    9/26? Isn't that what Tracy shoots every night?
    I would post the video of Tracy crying, but that would be too harsh.

    It's all good though,
    Coming back to Houston to see any Rocket games?

    What? So if Kobe shoots 9/26 for you it is acceptable? People like you are just killing me, sorry but that's true.

    I doesn't matter for you, Kobe just can be off, but T-Mac can't, because when he is off he is always b!tch, weak, looser, etc.

    Kobe never cires? You gotta be kidding me.

    Kobe is better than Tracy, that's all but people like you are just called HATERS

    I hated him when all he did was hog the ball. Its cool how he somewhat changed into a team player over the years.

    9/26 is never acceptable. It doesn't matter if you're Tracy or Kobe, he just had a bad night.

    When did I say "Kobe never cries" ?

    it kinda sucks when your least favorite player in the nba happens to be on your favorite team.
    thats what my problem is.

    The "ballhog" had 30 points and 8 assists tonight.
    They were down huge and almost won.
    Oh, and he shot 11/23
