Kobe Gets Loud Chants At Miami U Vs. Duke Game

[KingLeBronJames]

Wow...Miami crowd chanting Kobe's name in Florida. And LeBron is at the game too! :facepalm

[JohnFreeman]

It is just a respect thing.

[moe94]

Kobe doing thangs.

[SpecialQue]

Kobe's a legend, even if you don't like him.

Lebron's getting there. Don't worry.

[Leftimage]

Wow...Miami crowd chanting Kobe's name in Florida. And LeBron is at the game too! :facepalm

He's harmless that's why. Also quite legendary at this point.

[Milbuck]

Legends get respect. That's just how it is. Kobe, Giannis, Jordan, etc. they command respect. Lebron's on his way there.

[215Philly]

He's a god :confusedshrug:

[Inferno]

Legends get respect. That's just how it is. Kobe, Giannis, Jordan, etc. they command respect. Lebron's on his way there.

:lol

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Should be chanting Miami crap to support the team. They getting that ass beaten.

[TheMarkMadsen]

:bowdown:

This game is in Miami :lol

[moe94]

I'm surprised you're still keeping this going. What I really find funny is when you get tired of it and make a real post because someone got you mad. I'm a big fan of unintentional comedy.

[9erempiree]

Can you blame them?

Kobe is one of the greatest players ever to lace them up.

[Raymone]

You expect anyone in Florida to have loyalty in sports?

[BigMacAttack]

You dont chant for a beta when the Alpha dog is in the building.

[VIntageNOvel]

nah Milbuck still going strong :applause:

i wonder what pauk will do if he meet kobe

[red1]

:lol

[moe94]

nah Milbuck still going strong :applause:


He's still funny. I just like it more when he puts someone else down randomly.

[NumberSix]

Why wouldn't they cheer for Kobe? He's an all time legend and has no rivalry whatsoever with Miami. College or pro. It's not like this happened in SA.

[Mr. Jabbar]

is this thread worthy? kobe gets chants anywhere he goes, part of what separates real all time greats from boxscore whores

.."and the crowd breaks out in a Box Score chant"

Kobe is on another level from other ballers in terms of recognition. He's basically god in China.

[IncarceratedBob]

If LeBron and Kobe were walking down the street anywhere in the world, the crowd is immediately gathering around Kobe and ignore Mr. James. LeBron doesnt have the gravitas that Kobe does, I don't think he ever will have it but who knows.

Denver?

[J Shuttlesworth]

lol just goes to show that Kobe's "fan" base is really just a bunch of stans. Even worse was when Boston chanted MVP for Kobe :lol

[Day La Ghetto]

Its college kids so must of them are native to Florida, unlike Miami heat games,wade musta felt kinda akward

this makes no sense

how could you possibly twist Boston fans chant MVP at a Lakers player into a bad thing for that Laker player :roll:

depend on the age i think, this is college students we are talking about, they are witness of kobe's legacy

Let's be real, Kobe was infront of him and LeBron got a bit of his shine. They must've thought he was Kobe's personal trainer.

[J Shuttlesworth]

I can't believe there are idiots out there who don't realize LeBron is worshipped worldwide, even in China. If he wasn't, Stern would be a failure at his job.

no, they thought he's kobe's dad

Probably had something to do with Kobe Bryant putting up "THE U" sign, in Miami, at a Miami Hurricanes game.

Did you forget to mention that part OP?

Nope, I didn't forget. It happened before Kobe threw it up.

No, it didn't. Because I have the video of it

Isn't that Jeremy Lin in the bottom right hand corner? Pretty sure more than half of them are there to see Linsanity, but there are probably some Bron fans there as well.

[DavisWarriorsFan]

No, it didn't. Because I have the video of it

... But it just did. Kobe responded by throwing up the "U" symbol, much to the students' delight. Bryant attended a class earlier today.

Seems like it happened before he threw up the "U".

[IncarceratedBob]

Kobe got huge cheers MULTIPLE times. I would know cause I was at the game. The crowd went nuts for Kobe.

[3LiftHeatCurse]

Oh ok then. If they cheered for him more than once, then ok.

The U is sacred down herein MIA

[longtime lurker]

Heat fans for life yo!

Kobe's fans look happier in his picture. People must have went there because they thought it would be Kobe, instead they got Lebron.

[cos88]

great that fans respect retired great players :applause:

[SamuraiSWISH]

Damn @ the disrespect to local James / Wade in favor of Mamba.

Free Agency, doe?!

They wouldn't cheer LeBron over Jordan at a University of Illinois game.

one fan doesnt account for an entire fan base.

[Levity]

Thats awesome to hear

no disrespect to lebron, but i dont think that would ever happen at a ucla game.

[no pun intended]

you need your eyes checked...

You don't think the crowd would cheer for LeBron? Really? I'd be shocked if they didn't cheer for JR Smith.

i dont see lebron getting his name chanted. cheers? probably. but then again, look what happened to cp3 at the dodgers game

[JohnFreeman]

Lin or...?

[DavisWarriorsFan]

I was shocked when Bulls fans have chanted "Kobe!".

I bet mr jabbar, 9erempire, themarkmadsen and a few others can spot themselves in the crowd.
Dem asians love kobe.

This. I hope LA isn't afraid to do the same when LeBron is at the tailend of his career.
