    Say you were an obsessed fan, followed everything, knew every little bit of your favorite player...And suddenly he died...Would it make you cry?I know it sounds a bit corny but I was bored and I remembered I made this topic along time ago on some other forum and it got quite a bit of replies.If TMac died, I would...Probably. Not hard but yanno. <_<TMac brought me into basketball. It would be hard to go...R.I.P TMac and get over it that quickly.

    I?m sure I wouldn?t cry now. I was 16 when Magic announced he had HIV. I remember being pretty sad, not crying

    I'd be pissed if Chauncey Billups passed away. I don't know if I'd cry, but I might not be the same guy that I was.

    I wouldn't cry if Matrix died. But I would be very sad and probably angry. I'm rather quick to anger, as I'm sure some of you have maybe noticed.

    I tear up for happy moments. I wouldn't know how I'd react but I know I was pretty sad in 7th grade when I found out Pat Tillman died but how he lived his life just inspired me more than upset me.

    I'm not crying right now, but I'm not the same person I was 2 hours ago (because of Red). I don't care if people call me a pussy or whatever. The people that say "crying is for girls" and stuff - stfu. We all do it, it's natural.If Paul Pierce died, I would not ball my eyes out and put up a full cry. But I might get a little teary eyed and be a bit emotional.

    Yes, I would. Kobe Bryant and the Lakers are a huge part of my life. He started the biggest hobby of my life, basketball. I know it's just supposed to be entertainment but I can't help it. When the Lakers win, I'm happy for days, when they lose, I'll be pissed the whole day. I try not to let it get to me but I can't help it, it's like a drug and I'm addicted. I've never said a word to Kobe, but he's a big part of my life.

I would have to say no, because there's no real sentiment attached.

    I only cry if people I know personally die...It would suck but I wouldn't get emotional.

    My favorite player died(basketball wise) a long time ago. But if Hakim Warrick died today, I would be sad, but would just move on to Rudy Gay or maybe Josh Smith.

    I wouldn't because I don't even know Kobe personally. It will suck and all but I wouldn't cry.

    On 2nd thought I'd tear up if kobe died. But not full on cry. I'd probably break down if the lakers lost at the buzzer in game 7 of the nba finals.

    T-Mac's my favorite player, but I'm not obsessed with him...I don't memorize his stats, I don't know his biography, I just love and enjoy watching him play.If he died, I would be sad, but I certainly would not cry. I think I'd only cry if a family member died.

    Probably not, but yet again, I havnt experienced that yet. If Bosh died, I would be pissed, and sad for him, his family, and the Raps.As for guys being pussies when they cry, that is bs. They're just showing humane emotion. I cry sometimes, and I dont care what any of you think about that.
