It's understandable why someone could dislike Kobe. I myself thought he was trying too hard. I am on the outside looking in, but I think there has been some maturity on Kobe's part and he realizes how he handled things wrong back in the day. I think Kobe has grown up some.

@surrenda: Kobe IS annoying, but I think you may be going too far in calling him a "poisonous snake".....

surrenda: @Sinyarda, I think his confidence often times gets mistaken for arrogance. he's a cool guy...
@Aslan, You sound like a Kings or Warrior fan. But I could be wrong. But if you are! I can see why he would be annoying, being a fan of a team that constanly gets spanked by Kobe and company would be irritating. As far as the nick name goes. He got it for being the deadliest shooter in the NBA and the world. :)

Gold and Finals MVP within a year period. Not too shabby. Now that's Jordanist.

@aslan, Shaq won't make too big of a difference! He's up there in age as far as the NBA standards...

Realistically, you're probably right, but whatever I can come up with to root against Kobe and the Lakers, I'm going to grab onto it! (You're right about my being a Kings fan :) )
manwaring:
kobe's confidence is arrogance. let's just be honest. Best player in the NBA, yes. Very arrogant, and very disliked, yes.
No one disliked Jordan. No one thought he was an arrogant scumbag.
That is why Kobe, he is no Jordan.
But I do want to emphasize, he is an amazing talent.

@ manwaring You should ask Jordan's teammates he punched in the face during practices for not playing up to his standards. It would have been nice to see if the Lakers could have won against Boston if KG didn't get hurt.
