    I think this sums up perfectly how Lakers fan felt when Lebron became a Laker. He’s adjusting quite nicely.

    We have to adjust for inflation. Plus social media and just general media sensationalism has made athletes into larger than life celebrity personalities, increasing their net worth.

    I actually think about what would have happened if Kobe was drafted in 2012. How would the media portray him? What would have happened if Instagram was around when he scored 81. On the flipside though, I think the sexual assault case may have harmed his career a lot more.

    Colorado cost him the NBA title in 2004 and Olympic Gold that summer. That mistake still ripples.

    I can't imagine what chronic gambling, multiple-time-attacking-his-teammate Jordan would look like with social media. Or prostitute Worthy. Hell any of the 80s teams.

    All time favorite was when Stacey King was coming to practice and he was holding a bag, and Jordan goes, "got a jump shot in that bag?" hahhahahha

    ...and our fearless leader with his multiple sexual encounters? Mailboxes at his hotel filled with keys?

    Dr. Buss and his infamous photo-book of dates? Abdul-Jabbar's social gaffes?

    Sometimes it’s better to know less about your sports heroes.

    If P**** P joined the Lakers, I would've gotten his jerseys and sneakers (yes, both items in plural form, friends).

    I see what you did there.
    :Fishwink:

    There are NBA Stores near my place, so real ones. Or better yet, I have co-workers in the states now, and I may have them shipped there.

    You’re in the land of easy to find knock offs, so I was just curious. I always have a hard time justifying the cost myself.

    I would totally buy stuff from you
