    Breaking News: A lot of these young kids entering the league today idolized Kobe as they were growing up.

    That being said, yes he should change it. I was thinking the same thing actually. "Man hes in Portland now, gotta get with the times.".

    No lie, I cringed when I figured out that was his Twitter account when I followed him.

    Yes, because once someone is drafted by the Blazers they can no longer appreciate one of the best to ever play the game.

    Breaking news: lots of blazer fans appreciate Kobe and enjoyed watching him play

    HCP isn't lots of Blazer fans. Unless you're going by mass.

    ...and a lot of Blazer fans think Kobe is the anti-Jack Ramsey, and we're right!

    but.... I certainly don't begrudge fans sticking with who was good when they were young. I'm a lifelong Steelers fan because they were good... in the 70s when I was like 8 years old.

    He was the best Jordan impersonator I ever saw. Except for one guy in Vegas who had the vocal mannerisms down slightly better.
