I don't think what you're describing is classlessness, but I can see why that would bother you.

Re: Official POST-LOCKOUT Player Movement Thread (Trades, FAs, etc)
No, I feel that same way about anyone who goes to play for a team who has been a huge rival for that player throughout their entire career.
The guy played for Portland who BATTLED with LA for YEARS. Then he went to Detroit and had to play the Lakers in the Finals in 2004 then he went and played for the Celtics, who obviously are the Lakers' biggest rivals and the best rivalry in basketball.
I think its BS for any player to do that. Felt that way when Johnny Damon went to NYY, felt that way when Tom Glavine went to NYM, there are many instances of it and it's gross.
So stuff that nonsense about me. That's bull****.
Like I said, no biggie.
I honestly thought you wrote that because he came to the Lakers and nothing more. I didn't even think of the rivalry angle, I hated him on those Portland teams and still hated him as a Celtic.
I guess I don't think that way so that's why I hadn't thought out that angle. I always hated Matt Barnes, but now he's a Laker and I have to deal with it lol. Now there is going to be two players I really couldn't stand on their team, damn.Comment

Re: Official POST-LOCKOUT Player Movement Thread (Trades, FAs, etc)
LOL That's it? Because they traded for a High Schooler or did you hate Kobe while he was living in Italy? Serious question because I'm curious to know exactly where/when this hatred for him was formed.#RespectTheCultureComment

Re: Official POST-LOCKOUT Player Movement Thread (Trades, FAs, etc)
I'm saying, why though?
If he played for the Charlotte Hornets, would you still hate him as much as you do today? And if yeah, then what exactly caused you to hate him so badly? I'm just trying to figure out how all of this sparked, you know lol.#RespectTheCultureComment

. Kobe himself isn't likeable so He's arrogant, a ballhog, a snitch, he always throws everyone under the bus except himself(EX: Trade bynum for kidd, Personal Trade request) and put him self in a OJ situation it's easy for me not to like him off the court, but on the court I don't like his game either, I feel he's a locker room cancer, He shoots his teams out of game, he quit against phx in game 7, his shot selection is horrid plus I feel like he's incredibly fake. He's a huge cry baby, crying for fouls, he flops! and not to mention when he flops he may hit you in the face(Jaric,Ginobli) He's a dirty player(ask mike miller).
So 98' Sparked the fire, and kobe himself has been adding lighter fluid to it ever since..Comment

I'm not a Kobe fan personally but he gained respect from me when he didn't bat a lash when Barnes faked like he was throwing the ball in his face. Stood there like a boss.Wolverines Wings Same Old Lions Tigers Pistons Erika ChristensenComment

He has SOME talent(which Lord knows we need)so it doesn't hurt.
Always wondered why he couldn't stick around in the League though, aside from the fact that he only has 9 fingers.#RespectTheCultureComment

I mean the team has a bunch of stiff's at the three so its an upgrade, but then i think about "its Gerald Green". His basketball IQ was mediocre at best and got him shipped around the league. He's put up numbers in the D League though, so maybe he's finally found "it". Well it can't hurt when Deron's hitting you in stride cutting to the hoop.HELLO BROOKYLN.
