I didn't see the game, but I'm actually pleasantly surprised at how classy Laker fans are. Last year they applauded for Duncan when he got up from that knee injury. I honestly thought the fans weren't like that, haha. But yeah, Seattle was way worse. Total idiot fans right there.

cant judge the fans because of a few idiots...I heard some cheers too when he got up...but your right it doesnt make the Lakers look good at all.


I'm not judging everyone - I'm calling out the few hundred idiots.

And yes, I was one of those who clapped politely when he got to his feet and left the court (as I would for any player who is injured).



You're so mature. I like to oot, oot, oot, ooples and banoonoos.

This wouldn't be the case with Spurs fans King fans and Boston fans would it? if Kobe wen't down at the SBC center you think those hacks will give any kind of appreciation when Kobe gets up? why be ashamed just because our fan base mocked Duncan...


first, chanting "DUNCAN SUCKS!!" over and over after the dude clearly got popped in the eye/face/head is a lot worse than simply holding back cheers for him when he got up. second, if you're argument is to be an ass because some other teams' fans are asses, well, that's pretty weak.


Agreed - people need to stop justifying their own ignorance by blaming others' stupidity.

I flew to Sacramento by myself for Game 7 in 2002 and was verbally and physically assualted inside the arena. I was later jumped by 3 different groups of thugs, who wanted to take out their frustrations for the loss and wanted to burn my "colors." They never got the satisfaction. Even at the airport, the employees hasseled me like I was a terrorist, but at that point I didn't mind.

During the 2004 playoffs, I flew to San Antonio (Game 2) and Detroit (Game 5). San Antonio was decent until after the game when all of the upper level hoodlums descended on me. Mostly verbal crap, but I survived. My closing line was that we were going to sweep them the rest of the way . . .

Now Detroit has to rank as the worst city I have ever visited. The amount of venom and hostility I encountered exceeds all of my worst experiences . . . combined. 25 people stood to fight me to prevent me from using the restroom (no joke). Was fortunate to escape the arena and parking lot in one piece (authentic Kobe jersey was looking out for me that night).

But none of these experiences have ever prompted me to disrespect another arena, or to strive to get even with opposing fans visiting Staples. Because, at the end of the day, I am responsible for my actions and I would never wish those experiences on others.


And here you are taking on half of the LG members! Raffi, does the ownership of your actions include provocations steming from a passive-aggressive disorder?

Trust me it's not half of the board - just a couple of immature posters. All I've done is respond in kind. You can disagree if you'd like, but a response that ends with "because their fans/society are jerks" is a bit simple minded, which is all I've gotten.

Raffi quit crying. Duncan is known flopper and a cry baby! His reputation is what contributed to the boos last night.

Get down off your high horse and take this BS to a Spurs forum.
