are you retarded? what does the amount of jersey sales a player gets have to do with the amount of respect he gets from the league and league officials? LMAO. what a jackass you are.

Professional sports leagues dont tend to want to destroy the most popular teams. Cmon man, youre rich. Does that sound like a wise business move? You think the NBA didnt WANT Lakers vs Celtics last year? You think the NBA doesnt WANT Lakers vs Cavs this year? lol. But yet they hate them....LOL

ive already stated my argument for that many times, you're just too slow to get it. an nba with many superstars will generate more money than an nba with one superstar above the rest...thats why a player like lebron has gotten way more coverage than a dude like kobe throughout the yearws. downplay kobe, overhype the money makers (lebron, dwight, wade)...it puts them in the same elite category and creates a bigger buzz.
Jaydc555:
Wow dude you are so pbsessed with kobe its creepy.above the rest?he's not Michael Jordan.and I'm pretty sure Michael Jordan was above the rest of the league and the greatest player of all time and they had no problem with that.Your claim makes little to no sense.

NIK let's say the truth for once: Kobe has to blame none but himself for all the hate people gave him. I'm not saying he raped that girl, cause it's been proved by a court he didn't. But he didn't act as a professional businessman and as a professional sportsman fucking that bitch. We all know the hypocricy of U.S. media. They make you and destroy you. Now he's just trying to get himself a good reputation again, but for real, let's not blame the NBA for that. It's Kobe who put the NBA in a situation where having him as the "symbol" of the league was not a good acceptable. The truth is that when he was a child and he was still the young player from Italy making a huge impact in the NBA, the media used to love him. And the NBA too. He ruined himself.

dude, all NBA players fuck around...bitch opened her mouth, he doesn't deserve what happened, man...LOL. you of all people should know that. Jordan and other NBA idols have gone through way worse scandals with much less consequence. Anyways, Kobe was hated before the scandal, don't you remember?

Michael Jordan was the first big thing in marketing for the NBA, so it was different back then.
