    I literally gave you many different reasons, not just this one.

    When you watch an interview of Klay Thompson, doesnt he come across as smug, yet cocky?

    There's a difference between confidence and cocky, as well.

    Yep. Everything I've seen of him he's been a great person (well, as much as his self-presentation shows), so to really hate him (other than being a laker) seems to be about something beyond his control, and that's just not fair.

    I know I wouldn't like to be hated on just because of something out of my control. How fair is that?

    He can control how he responds to his father. He could ask his dad to chill. Nahhh.

    You didn't give me one that you didn't manufacture.

    Why does the Bucks playing in their old arena have to have anything to do with Islam? When the Blazers played a game in Memorial Coliseum a few years ago, did it have anything to do with the military? Or ancient Rome? :dunno:

    I am so sorry. Kobe is known as a laker. He should never be liked here.

    I disappear all the time. So again you have no proof just what you make up?

    This is not a good way to form an opinion.

    "The Mecca" is the name of the old arena. Nothing to do with the city in Saudi Arabia

    No he can't. You can't control another person by just saying it. I mean, unless you want to take away peoples' free will, and that's just not cool.

    You can respond to it though. He couldn't say "dad, can you chill out?" Is that physically impossible because of free will?

    Lmao. Doug was a constant poster and disappeared months ago right after that. He said that BS somewhat spoiled the forum for him.

    The free will isn't on his part.

    Yet we have more people defending Lonzo lmao. If you're defending Lonzo you shouldve been on HCPs side when it came to Kobe.

    It isn't, but he could say something. The dude is letting his dad take advantage of his career. It's weak.

    I hate Kobe but from 2000-2011 he was the face of the NBA (LeBron may have been the bigger draw though once he established himself as a top 5 player).
