Re: NBA News
I'm only 22, so I was fairly young when Michael Jordan was around. I didn't really start watching basketball until I was seven or so, which was late in his career. I began watching basketball as Michael Jordan was leaving and Kobe Bryant was coming in, but I know enough about Jordan and knew his game even as a child.
I don't know what you're implying, but I do think Michael Jordan was arguably the greatest and most influential basketball player. With that said, I don't think Kobe Bryant is far off.
I've been a fan since I began watching, which was roughly around 1994. I grew up on Nick Van Exel, Eddie Jordan, and continued on when Kobe Bryant came into the team. To be honest - and many might disagree with me - I don't simply support a team just because it's my team. For example, I wasn't as big of a Lakers fan when they had their fair share of horrendous players. I wasn't a fan of Shaq, despite many people liking him, then despising him when he left. I didn't like him and didn't pretend to while he was in the Lakers.
I'm not a bandwagon fan and I didn't say you were either.
Your claim is so absurd that it doesn't make sense. San Antonio Spurs fans are true fans? Is that a fact? I don't even know if you know how stupid that sounds. Los Angeles and Boston are far more popular cities with more star players (Pau Gasol, Kobe Bryant, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett), which is why you might feel like some people are "bandwagon" fans. With that said, that doesn't mean people can't bandwagon the Spurs. They're a good team and the might not have as strong of a following as Lakers and Celtics do, but if you're a fan of Spurs, it doesn't mean you're a dedicated fan and will never like another organization, nor does it mean you're not bandwagoning.
Actually, I don't even know what I'm saying. Your claim is just too stupid to reply to.
Celtics will join the Spurs on the unemployment bench, don't worry. Do you want a prediction? Lakers, 4-2. They'll win tomorrow (Sunday), and will lose two games in Boston, and finish the series in Los Angeles.
I'll be damned if Kobe doesn't get another ring this year, Pepsi. Quote this when it's all said and done.
