My first seasons without being a Laker hater.

Russell will prove a worthy successor to Kobe.

is it too early to say we taking this down next year?

[BlazerRed]

Was it Kobe you hated? Or is it just that now you've seen the fanbase experience a low so you don't mind them having an upswing?

I didn't hate Kobe, I just hated that they were good all the time. Now they've sucked a while, the hate has diminished. That and I may be moving over to the Cali coast for a while next year so I would like to go to the game and actually cheer for the home team.

Russell got these haters weak at the knees. LAKER nation stays winning!
