or maybe because they realize kobe is hands down this generations GOAT? ever notice how players always pick kobe....it's the media/casual fans who ride lebron's nuts, but when u ask an actual player who plays the game who they're takin, most of the time u'll hear the name kobe......and these kids comin in are 19 years old....they grew up watching lebron more than they grew up watchin kobe. lebron grew up watchin kobe......it comes down to kobe havin the more respectable game, achievements, accolades, with an unmatched resume by any active player. not because "they grew up watching him", teddy, my boy.
When you're a kid, you're rooting for the top dog, not some fucking rookie. My gf 11 year old brother is watching Lebron like a hawk and not Irving. When I was a kid I watched Kobe, I didn't give 2 fucks about Lebron. Why would you care for somebody that hasn't done shit yet, over somebody who's at the top of his game RIGHT NOW.

Which one seems more personal? Let me make it more simple to help ur mind understand what i mean.. if u adopted a child, would u feel closer if u got him at birth n watched him grow or if u adopted a 12 year old who already developed? Ur retarded logic is pissin me off

Ur retarded logic is pissin me off Did you really just compare liking a basketball player to adopting a child?Anyways, in the end it's probably personal preference. But judging by how my friends and I were following bball, as matter of fact any sport, we cared about top dog the most, the one who was talked about the most, was on every poster and sticker. I didn't care about personal involvement when I was 10, or someone to identify myself with. When I turned on the TV I saw Kobe being that dude, so I was not occupied with rookies. If anything, now that I'm older it's the other way around. I follow some players since their college careers and hope they make it.I'm an athletic coach btw, teach kids from 8-12, and I've never heard one kid saying anything about Irving. All they care about is Lebron and/or Durant.
