If I had a dime for every time I heard an immigrant say, “It’s all about the Lakers homes.”
The LeBron hype machine does piss me off than Kobe’s much more.

It’s all about Chris Paul’s sexy pits for us, right guys!?

Actually, I thought more about what I said above, and I think I now have to disagree with… myself. I don’t find Kobe likable, but I find him much more interesting as a person than I find LeBron. I just think he’s got a more complex personality and set of issues.

I understand that but look at it this way, CP3 deserves to have a few media circus’s of his own but he doesn’t so I’d rather be watching 24 hrs of lebron(which i didn’t but just saying) than watching 24 hrs of……..don’t even want to say his name, and from now on I will refer to him as “he whose name will not be spoken”. I also recommend staying away from the lake fans on other sites half are immigrants who can only say “woo lakers” the other half are stupid high school dropouts who every year pick to like the team with the most wins

@ Michael– HEY! At least half of this site has a strong distaste for Kobe. I take no responsibility for the opinions of the other half.

I have no problem with LeBron as a player. His athleticism is impressive. Etc. I have a problem with the media circus that makes me tired of him. I have a problem with the 2010 obsession that I have to read about/hear about every day. There’s no REASON I should be tired of a player I’ve actually seen play 2 games tops this year!! Except that he’s just… everywhere. Where’s the point where constant self marketing begins to backfire?

@mw, Didier, Matt– I tried to hold down the fort on that comment thread, but people like that aren’t worth arguing with

That’s why I never read the comment threads at those sites. Great articles, but stupid readers. Like I care what some 12-year-old in Gary, Indiana thinks. Or some homer with the brain of a 12-year-old in Provo.

As a fan of the Hornets from the start i gotta say I love the Hornets but am not sure why this site is down on LJ, I want him to suck when he plays us but at least he’s a player who gets hype for things he’s actually doing rather than for what he once did. Maybe if you turned the hate towards players who deserved it it would be better. Instead of all that secret kobe love that keeps this site from being one of the best, cause as a Hornets fan I must insist that you just can’t like kb. As a Hornets fan it’s your job to respect those who have game on and off the court not who act like some diva bitching and moaning about your teammates, backstabbing whoever you can to get ahead and then say it was some master plan.

It sickens me how you can hate one side of the spectrum and quietly praise the other less talented half. I tell people I’m glad we traded kb when we drafted him but how I’d gladly have lebron on our team instead of peja(sorry peja just been dragging this year) because he can do so much and if the pace of this game was at the speed of how it used to play he’d be a modern day big “O”. So lets show respect to the players who like CP3 are bringing an all around game on and off the court. Seriously I go to nba.com then hornets.com then here and if you are gonna have love for CP3 and kb that just doesn’t make sense because to truly understand CP you have to know what a good guy he is off and on the court. How he insists on making those around him better rather than whining like a girl(no offense tt6) about how they are not.

According to this LeBron has never even won on his birthday. He’s 0-3. Plus he got a speeding ticket driving back from the airport on his birthday last year after losing to us. HAHA.

So can we all just agree to skip it next year?

Didier, not if you read the comments by the fan-tard fanboys.
