since 2004... more propaganda has gone into the lebron hero kobe villain campaign than the US WW2 hero vs Nazi villain campaign a little over half a century ago
why has it backfired so much?

kobes on pace to have the most allstar votes ever. getting send offs at each stadium and all apposing fans as if he was mr nice guy derek jeter his whole life
receiving personal messages from legends like jordan and others
this doesnt look like something that happens to a villain
meanwhile lebrons still the butt of all jokes everywhere he goes

Some guys are loved, others are feared.
Kobe is loved. Lebron is feared.

thats more to do with the type of fans that follow lebron
i've made a few threads before that classified the black/hoodrat/thug fan behind lebron and the upper class/white/spoiled fans behind kobe
the fact is... hoodrats, thugs, black people invest allot more money into basketball shoes than spoiled upper class white people
infact... i havent bought a pair of kobe shoes since 2005
we wear more classy shoes and designer stuff
hoodrats wear lebrons and jordans etc..
and they hate kobe
so his branding power isnt very high. but kobe seems to have more support in an overall world wide fan sense strictly when it comes to the game and his legacy

let me explain life to you
there's the mainstream
and there's the hipsters
mainstream people follow the media
hipsters go against mainstream
insidehoops, being an internet message board were 15 year olds pretend to be black and/or tough is 100% hipsters
you're basing your perception off an internet forum for children (and senile old men who like wilt or something) ergo not only is your perception/argument flawed, but you're also pretty much retarded

it all depends on the shoes/who buys them/ and how much commercialization they do... lebron has the right market. kobes shoes have always been ugly as sin. and lebrons commercials are on 10 times more
a person can be a better shoe salesman but not be as liked
hense kobe leading the allstar game in voting 3 out of the past 5 years

Perception/=reality. Specifically your perception bro. Kobe is well liked but he's just not a likeable guy to most. Early in his career he seemed too contrived and later on he opened up but still has a scripted feel at times. I don't really know that lebron is likeable either, I watch them for how they play ball. But the numbers don't lie. See post above. And I'm sure there's probably tons of other ones to support those as well.

let me gues.. steph currys shoes arent doing well either
even though hes the best player and the poster child of the nba now
hmmm wonder why... maybe cause the guys who predominantly buy basketball shoes would get called out for buying shoes of a player thats a white washed silver spooned spoiled rich kid that didnt grow up in the hood
i'm tellin yall the truth... no thug/black hoodrat can get away with wearing kobe shoes... he'l be outcast
and thats the biggest market for basketball shoes
kobe should be marketting shoes like lacoste or some shit

You're not even the biggest kobe fan I know, you are by far the biggest ********** though. I know plenty of guys that wear kobe shoes that would be considered "hoodrats" to a fearful boy like yourself.......

People who actually play basketball wear them. Lebron and kobes shoes are for performance not fashion. Get with the times.

It's like you're on both of their marketing teams.

the media has been tellin me that kobe sucks and hes pure evil and a bad teammate and not clutch and not close to lebron and not a guy people wanna play with and hes not efficient and this and that and the other for over a decade now
yet i'm still here
its amazing.. a miracle of sorts

dude speaks 5 languages
Italian - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwkMf6R3qSA
Spanish - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKhBRtKNgeQ
Serbian - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ueqh4sdAhc

Dumbest sh*t i've heard in a while.
Yeah, let's market our stuff to the poorest people in the country, because they have so much extraneous money to spend :roll: . Also, let's focus on only 10% of the population as a whole (blacks).
Meanwhile, let's ignore the upper class, who can pay mortgage and bills and still have $5,000 extra to play with every month. Especially around Christmas time, when it is expected that these guys will buy gifts for their kids, nieces, and nephews.
You are truly a genius and deserve to be on Wall Street.
