it's not that kobe is hated that much, is that the people that hate him, spend countless hours voting and making sure he is on that list. it's not a reliable source of knowing if he is loved or hated.
# 1 jersey in the world, getting new sponsors all the time. do you guys actually think he would get new sponsors IF he was THAT hated. the companies, have their real way of knowing what the real public thinks of kobe, right now.
not these polls, that the haters love to vote on.
kobe has more haters that worry about what he does, than even his fans.

Maybe not hated, but certainly tons of people don't like him and his cancerous selfish way of being.and Iverson isn't really hated at all.

Cancerous, selfish, blah blah blah. Funny how these weren't an issue for people when he led the Sixers to the Finals. He's no cancer, he didn't screw up any teams. It's not his fault that Detroit's coach didn't know how to utilize him correctly.

Hell yea he's hated. I hate him most of the time for [expletive]ing up the other team too bad, it's not fair.
^ And yea, Iverson is damn inefficient and a cancer, at least now with his attitude. Philly worked out cuz he got ALL the shots

Kobe Bryant has got to be the most loved and hated man on the planet. I honestly can't think of a person who is so beloved by the world and so vilified by it as well.
"If you could stop all the players that get publicized and all the players that the NBA likes and all the players, you know, the players that win the MVP's, you know, for their offense. And some of them, you know, play pretty good defense too. But some of them, you know, they like "this guy he can shoot, he can score, he can dunk." and I want to be the one to stop all those guys, you know, and just kinda spoil the whole party." - Ron Artest

That makes him unique for real.
Best of both worlds. Love is complimentary. Hate is a bonus.

Well of course he's hated, he's the best out there right now. However, some of the things he does do seem very calculated and may come off as fake to people.

Of course Kobe is hated. the sex scandal thing (Kobe is a rapist), 81 points (Kobe is selfish) etc etc.
How did rap music go from really good to so dry?
Real artists get shelved and whack one's get famous
To leave masses brainless, a smart mind is dangerous
In their eyes there probably ain't no real [expletive] in your playlist
You're just a product of what the government has created

I hate hearing the word rapist now. Just reminds me of that scandal.
81 points is selfish!? Ok watching that game makes it seem that way...but...-.- That's uncharacteristically a game where you can see 1 person's WILL turn the game around.

Why is this even a topic on a Lakers board. I guess people didn't have enough on their hating of Dr Buss due to the Lamar debacle so now they have to spew their hate towards Kobe. I have one thing to say and that is People hate greatness so they hate on him.
Maybe people should watch that game and then tell me Kobe was selfish. The Lakers needed every one of those 81 points to beat the Raptors. How is it selfish when your team mates keep feeding you the ball. People are lame and don't have a clue.

I'm not calling Kobe a rapist or a selfish player. That's what i've heard from other fans and other people (either in real life or in the internet)
