More like after the 3rd quarter.

Exactly what a banwagon fan is.

You probably clocked in when we won our first championship during the 3 peat then clocked out when we didnt make the playoffs and couldnt get passed the sunsin the first round but magically clocked back in and proclaimed you have been a die hard fan for 20 years once we got Pau.

****

 

[vctry20]

people like you are the reason that people hate the fans of dominant teams. I always thought of being a bandwagon fan as kind of disgraceful, I figured itwasn't something to be proud of

 

[thekryptonite]

you are a fool and not a true sports fan. seriously who does this?

 

[sooperhooper]

them cats seriously disappointed me today too. I was heated at kobe.

 

[freddypee]

honestly im mad, sad, and disappointed...

but these are the moments that makes being a fan great...you cant win them all.... if you think so.... i suggest you go some where else young man

 

[downtown43]

the person who started this post is most certainly a bandwagon fan.

OP, did you also turn in your Lakers fan card in the 2000 WC Semis, when the Lakers were blown out by the Suns?

how about in the WCF after that, when the Lakers lost AT HOME to the Blazers by 30? surely that loss would have been worse than today's game. did you turnin your "fan card" then as well?

but you hopped right back on after they won the title that year, right?

---

either you renewed your "fan card" multiple times during the Lakers three-peat years, or you were too young to have even watched/understoodbasketball at that time and you just hopped on the bandwagon recently with no recollection of the ups and downs the Lakers have been through.

in any case, i think most Lakers fans will appreciate you hopping off and fading back into the distance.

[vctry20]

Real fans don't carry a card

It's about loyalty, and you have none.

Well lets take a look at what you said again....

Honestly I'm glad to. I don't want to hear oh you mad over one game nonsense. This has been going on long enough. This team has all this talent but no focus and no killer instinct. I DON'T CARE IF THEY DO PULL OFF THE CHAMPIONSHIP, I'LL BE HAPPY KOBE HAS 4 AND PHIL HAS 10.

But, they won't deserve it. You don't belittle the game with the effort this team displayed all year. Go on give me the kool-aid logic fans about 65 wins and whatever. Too many losses due to lack of effort.

The Cavs are where they are because of effort, Boston last year, and Denver right now. My two reasons.

Kobe trying to be Mr. Nice guy to get everybody to like him. Who gives a damn if people hate you, be a prick and win!

Phil is simply not a good coach and is a product of great players that take things into their own hands on the court.
TEX WINTER IS THE MASTERMIND WHO GETS NO CREDIT!

Quote me whatever I'm done. Good luck but I doubt they get past Denver.

Most of what you wrote was complete and udder nonsense.

Yes the team does lack killer instinct. So you bail on them because of that? You will stick by a team that gets a 3-1 lead vs the suns and blows that but youdrop them becasue they lack killer instinct but still have a shot to win the chip?

Stupid.

How can you say a team doesn't desvere a championship if they win it? I mean they WON the chip so they DESEVERE the chip. They played the games and won.Thats just more nonsense.

I don't understand you point about the cavs and nuggets. Yes both teams are playing well but have either of them won the chip yet or even in the past 10years?

People are going to love/hate kobe no matter what. I don't know about this mr. nice guy you speak of. Kobe still throws bows and talks mess so that pointis just more nonsense.

Your comments on Phil Jackson dont even need to be addressed that's how stupid they are...

So I read all that you said and 95% of it is nonsense.

So please. Stop trying to defend your post. Its nonsense.

I'm not bashing all of the Laker fans , but I seem to run upon this all the time. Living in Cali right now, there are tons of "Lakers fans" which must annoy the hell out of the ones who actually understand/appreciate the game of baskeball; and continue to cheer for the purple and gold despite loses like this.

I always believe that as a fan, you cheer on a team because of what they accomplished in the past. You cheer them on hoping they are currently successful, and continue cheering even if they aren't. Another thing is, as fans if it's not this year for your team, then like they say: There's always next year.

It's okay to be mad or frustrated at your team, but to turn in your "fan card" due to an issue that a current Laker team has, that STILL has a shot at winning the title?

Then that right there, certainly disables you from ever being a true fan in the first place.

QFT.

 

[dyyhard]

i turned in my laker card, after they beat boston both times, and the cavs both times, this season.

 

[mjsaver]

DOWNTOWN43's that was one of the best responses i've read on NT.

its hard enough being a laker fan w/o these frontrunners.


OP you shouldve just started a suicide LAKER watch or something..

What did you expect people to say,?? after a BLOWOUT especially.

Seriously. You'd probably off yourself if you were a Raider fan.
