I mean this question sincerely.
No stones being tossed, no sarcasm being displayed.
But with this logic,
Doesn't it mean if someone for example was a thief, arsonist, criminal, drug dealer, whatever for 15 years... Putting their families life at risk over and over again, not to mention damaging other people's properties and well being... That he should continue to stay one until the day he dies? Should we not want him to pay his debt to society, change, and be a better human being out of it? Should we not expect for him to learn some humanity and genuinely change his ways?
I'm not comparing this example to Kobe in any shape or form. I'm just talking about the "if you're something then stay something all the way through" logic. That theory has a lot of outliers doesn't it? If that was the case then none of us would ever deserve 2nd chances in life.
We don't know whether or not someone's genuinely become a better person or not. We don't know if they've become genuinely humbled or not.
We can "assume" or "guess" that its fake, but who are we as human beings to tell other people to stay "the villain" their whole life instead of wanting to be "the hero" along the way?
Even LeBron got tired of playing the villain. He couldn't make it past a few years, hence the "I'm going home" letter. Was that not fake? was it real? Who know right? We have our opinions but at the end of the day we'll never really know with certainty what was on lebrons mind.
And we'll never know whether Kobe genuinely feels bad for those burned bridges. BUT, if he does, then why would we criticize him for having regret and remorse and genuinely trying to make amends for his past transgressions? I mean, it doesn't erase the bad things he's done, I'm not saying it deserves forgiveness. No.
But I don't think saying "f your sorry, stay an *** hole because that's what you've always been" exactly gets us anywhere in this world either.
And in his last season, when he's not good anymore at thatSomeone plays the ******* for 19 years, has a shift in attitude suddenly, and we're supposed to believe it?

then you should have learned to live with it by now, stop crying about it
Nba players are entertainers and I hold them to a high standard. It's not like they see or even remotely care about what I have to say.then you should have learned to live with it by now, stop crying about it
IDK. man. You kind of have to admit there is a level of irony in you co-signing a post about the power of positivity. That's not exactly your thing - at least on here. Would be like BIG LEEMELONE all of sudden advocating the virtue of humility.

I have always been positive towards my fellow nters

Earliest mid-season buyout I can remember was Tim Thomas to the Suns in 2006.Am I wrong, or did this whole phenomenon of players getting bought out after the trade deadline only become a thing in like the last few years? I can't remembering it happening much, if at all, prior to like the last 4-5 years. Before that, the only time I remember a team getting a player of note very late in the season was when the Bulls signed Bison Dele (RiP)
