Lakers and Kobe Top Fan Poll

Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers are by far the favorites with basketball fans according to survey conducted for Forbes by BIGresearch, a unit of Prosper. Oh heaven forbid, you have to be joshin' me. Kobe Bryant is a great player, but nowhere near as good as Michael Jordan, and he stinks as a person. He has a huge ego and thinks he's God's gift to everything, let alone basketball. It just goes to show how little taste people have in picking their heroes.

BIGresearch asked 5,075 people if they were an NBA fan, of which 26.8% answered yes. Of the 1,360 people who said they were fans, 22.2% said the Lakers were their favorite team, followed by the Boston Celtics with 11.9%. The Heat were ranked a distant fourth at 6.4%. I know there are a lot of people in LA, but they have the Clippers and the Warriors too. What this survey says is that winning is more important than loyalty., and that's pathetic.
