Lakers fans don't lose their shit about Lebron. Many don't like him. As has been stated, fandom has nothing to do with it. Also, Lakers fans are some of the most active on this board and Lebron is the most discussed athlete on this board. Just because Lakers fans express their opinion about the most discussed player on the board, doesn't make them obsessed or have any irrational hate.
You keep acting like people are talking about ALL Laker fans. I haven't seen anyone do that. We are talking about Laker fans on this board.
Some of the same posters that accuse Lakers fans of this have said the same and worse about Kobe, Steph and KD. Yet no one blames it on their fandom or talks about how obsessed they are.
I don't think there is any blame to give anyone. Just odd that it the dislike is so overwhelming.
As for coming across as sensitive...I'd say that those who feel the need to defend Lebron against any and all criticism, no matter how slight, would be the more sensitive.
Who's doing that? I haven't seen anyone do that.
There are plenty of things to criticize Lebron about.
