Just four questions:
Gender?
Age?
When you started watching the Lakers?
Who is your favorite current player?
I'll post the results in like a week, this will probably get moved soon but I'm posting this in the Lakers Lounge for visibility. If someone wants to put together a lengthy/ more specific census then let me know and I can go ahead and delete this one.

Gender: Male.
Age: 25.
Started watching the Lakers during the 2003-2004 season because Kobe was (and still is) my favorite player. I was only in the fifth grade, but I was a true fan. Losing in the Finals had me demoralized all summer.
Hard to say who my favorite player is currently. I'm not sure if I have one. But I can say that I probably have the most affinity towards Zo, BI, Bron, and Rondo. _________________ “Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God.

Gender: Male
Age: 20
Started watching in 2009, right at the start of that season. First two seasons I was blessed to see a championship team so in a way I was a bandwagon fan but I only became a Lakers fan cause my uncle was a Lakers fan, I didn't know we were that good.
Favorite current player is obviously Brandon Ingram. _________________ “Life is too short. You have to keep it moving.” - Kobe |

I'm a little surprised that you're that young lol. I've always assumed that I was probably the youngest aside from Gadget. _________________ “Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God.

12, huh? That's pretty funny. I was 14 when I started posting on forums to talk Lakers. But that was on Kobe's official website (kb24.com), back when it had forums. I was even a mod there despite only being a teen.
And I think the same thing about the lil homie, Gadget _________________ “Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God. And people who would be happy in heaven if Christ were not there, will not be there."

Woke spectator since ‘88 when my uncle broke down the misdirection and manipulation part of the game. How to read a tell, and how you can see who would fight through a deficit and who would fold simply by body language and hustle. He would call it down to the timeouts, and by the 4th min of the third quarter, would be able to determine final point differential.
Gonna go rogue here and say my favorite tandem is King/BI. Once the young man is comfortable with communicating to be heard (by Thanksgiving), the two will be amazingly agile in terms of end to end breaks and recovery on defense 🌮 🌮 🌮 _________________ DEAR BASKETBALL |

-Started watching when I was about 7 or 8. So mid-80s'
Some of my fondest memories are sitting with my Dad in the living room watching the Lakers/Celtics epic Finals battles and shooting baskets on the nerf hoop during commercials.
-Fave player right now is probably J Hart. But BI is slowly creeping up there.
Found this forum because I needed to vent about how poorly the team was playing and I needed an outlet to voice my displeasure. LG has been a staple in my life ever since. Love this board. _________________ "Dread it, run from it... destiny arrives all the same." |

I'm a Lakers fan since 2000, mostly because of Kobe. I'm portuguese so, here in Portugal, Lakers games (on Staples) start around 3.30 a.m. Yes, many nights without sleeping a single minute.
Current favorite player: Lonzo/Lebron |

2006. I got introduced to the NBA very late. Basketball wasn't really big here at the time.
Favourite player is tough to choose though. If I had to pick one I would say Ingram but I really like our guys. |
