    <font color=""Black"">We are under a microscope. If we win a game, it was because of the refs. If we win a series, we are going to get destroyed in the next one. If Kobe scores 81 points, it was because we played the Raptors. If Kwame is averaging better numbers, it's because of his playing time and has nothing to do with Kobe. Bryant averages 35 PPG because he has bad teammates...but two days later, his teammates are underrated, and it's only because someone wants to argue that LeBron is carrying the load more than Kobe.

    The inconsistent arguments, the unnecessary bashing, everyone getting their wish when we fail...it's absurd. If the Heat lose, it's no big deal...there's always next year. If the Lakers lose, Kobe is the downfall of this franchise, and Kupchak is now worse than Babcock.

    Suddenly, we are up 3-2 in a series against "a contender." Are we a contender? Hell no, doesn't matter what happens, we are just getting lucky, and God must be a Laker fan, or Stern wants a Los Angeles battle for the second round. Luke fouled Nash, Boris called timeout, Kwame should be suspended, Luke should be suspended, Jones' jersey was pulled, Marion isn't getting his calls, Shaq's elbow to Bynum was just a technical, Kobe's elbow to Miller is a 2-game suspension.</font>

    When your team has a history of success, people love to see them fail. It's jealousy not hate.

    I don't hate the Lakers but sometimes I post harsh comments because I hate the fans. I'm not pointing at the Lakers fans only but other fans as well. I'm sure there are some Wade fans or VC fans with too much pride too.

    Fan pride is what makes the NBA one of the greatest sports to watch. People like you dont deserve this sport. Its a passion in my life and I love the Lakers. So if something like that makes you hate me than so be. I doubt I like you much either.

    I'm not saying Laker fans shouldn't support LA to the fullest, I just hate the fanboys who are very biased.

    Two types of Laker fans: Short term championship bandwagon jumpers(3-peat days) and the true fans that stick around forever. I think the fans that annoy you are the bandwagon jumpers. They make dumb comments without knowing any history about the team whatsoever

    Yeah Fan pride with biased eyes
    Did I point at you?
    You don't have to like me. I don't even want to know you. Leave it at that.

    I think the Lakers have too many of those.

    I can say ive been a laker fan my whole life, through the bad and glory days. Some Laker fans can be biased but I think as a laker fan you gotta stick up for your players like Kobe. I wouldn't want critics to diss him after having a spectacular season.

    What do you expect fans to be? Thats why we are fans bro, fans love their team and will defend them to their fullest. Of course you are gonna meet biased fans, its because they are biased is why they are fans. They prefer that team over the rest therefore being biased.

    Btw if you haven't noticed I aint no bandwagon fan, I have been a Laker fan going on 6 years now.

    I have been a Lakers fan since I got into the NBA which was in 1999 and I have never thought about changing. All the haters are just jealous because we have a great team and are hating on Kobe because they know he has the power to lift a team and make them score or get his team to support him and he can score 81.

    LaKeRs 4 LiFe. They are only 3 words but its the reason that I own a Laker jersey and the reason that I laugh at the jealousy of all those that want to say we are crap and put crap on our players.

    No no biased fans are those who
    - start thread like "Someone vs. Kobe...who's better?" like thousand times..
    - are diligent enough to post stuff like "Kobe owns him", everytime there is a rising star.
    - blame other teammates for every single loss.
    - think Kobe is god and those who can't ball are not human being and shouldn't post on this forum.

    These are what create the haters. Kobe is a great basketball player. Haters? Why? He hasn't done me any harm. Why should I hate him? But fans like those make me not like Kobe.
    Are you one of those?

    Hey, I'll admit, I'm biased sometimes towards my favorite teams and players, but some Laker fans (not saying you specifically) go way overboard with their bias and post ridiculous comments that show an obvious lack of knowledge.
