Kitam? Kahit si dpogs na ayaw sa Lakers appreciates Kobe. I think the same thing is happening in the US that is why even at the Rose Garden they were cheering for Lakers because of Kobe's fighting spirit.
he is the last superstar of his generation with still the same level of talent, more or less, as to when he was at his prime. yung mga contemporaries nya na sila Nash, Iverson, VC, Tmac, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce etc, puro laos na.
I think America is starting to realize that they only have a few more seasons to see Mamba play at this level.
Also, madami din talaga fans ng Lakers all over America. There was even one article na nagreklamo si George Hill na di siya natuwa na madaming Laker fans nagcheer for the Lakers during a Pacers home game. Nawawala daw homecourt advantage nila. haha
I think I've heard Kobe MVP chants na din before sa rose garden. Mas malala yung sa Boston nagchant ng MVP for Kobe in 2006 o 2007 yata yun. haha
