Pushing away teammates. hmmm
You do remember how he witnessed most of his teammates from the "We Believe" run get pushed out early in his career? Of all the players they kept...Biedrins? WTF
He did mess up the Scooter incident. It didn't help that Mullin had his back but Rowell pushed to severely punish and embarrass him, which helped create the rift between Mullin and the Ws org.
So what if he laughed at his former boss. His former boss just traded him away from his home for 7 years. How is that different from anyone being fired or let go from any other job. It's an honest/natural reaction to being let go after years of loyalty.
Would I still want him in the team if his behavior was bad? That's a ridiculous question. Of course I wouldn't. Let me ask you this...
Would you love Bogut or Curry if they played like Beans and DWright this year? Exactly
Don't try to act intelligent with a ridiculous hypothetical question.
Was he a dick to his fans? He was actually very humble and appreciative of his fans. I appreciate what he's done for this organization. Unlike you...I won't turn a blind eye on a player that has played with passion throughout the years just because of a few missteps. That says a lot about you if you are so quick to turn on and no longer support a player that did so much for the team and the fan base.
Has Kobe won a championship by himself? Nope
He's great, but all great players need great teammates like a Shaq or Pau.
