You guys probably have no idea of how Kobe is popular with the Chinese. It could be dangerous if Kobe is seen in the street in China because someone could suffer heart attack. The natural reaction is people can't stop shooting crazily when they see Kobe's coming. And, interestingly, we like him for some reasons, first, we think he's very good looking, very handsome, which is better for being promoted. Second, he'd better creat a legend from a nobody to a basketball god. We like this type of hero
@junsdlv Third, he's very hard working and focused!! This could make one more charming and respectful! Also, we like his skills and those beautiful plays, not a violant style. Finally, we don't like people who look too strong or big, which may be opposed to some Americans' opinion; Kobe's body just looks perfect without looking too muscular, though he's strong too indeed. These reasons were given by one of the major local basketball magazines, and I find this interesting and agree with them.
@junsdlv Maybe it's much probably to see him in the US. It's however very lucky to have his coming to China. Try to understand our excitement when we see a basketball player that has been famous and talked about most in classroom all the time since our high school, and he suddenly appeared in front of you. This is just surreal. Forgive us, you never know the fantastic feeling on those occasion as I've been to twice, one in HK in 2009 and the other in Guangzhou in 2010. like a dream!
Asian respect Kobe because of his skills and hard work ,not just bullying people like Shaq or Lebron ( big, strong and dumb). His game is an art He earns everything he got.
In Southeast Asia, Michael Jordan made the game of basketball be known, Kobe makes it be loved. This is even before he won his last two rings.
i just noticed lebron ,dwight ,prince lol and boozer thought they were chanting for them and they realized it was for kobe they felt stupid so if u look at dwight and lebron lips they start to point at kobe and start screaming kobe cause they realized the crowed caught crazy cause of KOBE not them lol...
I got goosebumps watching this video. The Man has earned it over 15 years - it doesn't happen overnight. 8 rings by the time it is all said and done. Mark my words!
see... asian ppl respect talent... u know there all about skill and being quick and stuff.. martial arts(Kobe)... americans are all about being stupid and strong (lebron).. asians acknowledge only true skill. hahah
@Sage80 actually Not they was waiting Kobe to Show up..and the proof is: D.Hawrd was pointing at Kobe And the rest of the USA Team. sorry the was all for Kobe Bryant
hahaha! dwight and lebron thought the cheering was for them!! now i understand why lebron said that he want to be an international brand like kobe is right now. i like lebron but, only champions deserve to be called KING!
@FPC1482 they knew the cheering wasn't for them. cp3, dwight, d-wade, AND lebron looked up in the stands and started chanting "kobe! kobe!" with the rest of the chinese. they all know who the real king of basketball is.
I saw this on tv, and there was another one when Kobe was trying to go down those benches and he was getting pulled by those Chinese fans. Poor Kobe, but oh well who can blame him.
Its Damn Funny !!! The Whole China Love Kobe While alota Americans Still Sayin' Shit 'Bout Dat Nigga......... The Whole China Never Let Him Down When He Was On da Wrong Side of da Law in 2003 While Alota American were Spittin' in His Face.....Funny But Shameful at the Time
Man look at all that love. Here in the States its all hate all 24/7 except in LA. This is why folks love international fans more, they focus on your talents and not on your shortcomings which is what folks tend to do here. I don't think he'll get the love he deserves till after he retires.
@thug8200 I heard that too.I think Lebron was jealous deep down.He's used to getting all the love in Cleveland,so when he comes to China & gets completely overshadowed by Kobe he must've felt pissed lol
Plus,Kobe has had the No.1 selling jersey worldwide for the last two years,beating Lebron in to second place each time.I can feel Lebrons jealousy bubble up lol.
this is why there were rumblings that lebron was a little jealous that kobe got the lions share of attention at the olympic games. someone post a video of lebron gettin this kinda attention.....EXACTLY
The #1 selling jersey WORLDWIDE includeing the USA... There is a reason 4 that!!!!! There is a reason 4 that!!!!! The world can appreciate his greatness, & HE IS GREAT PERIOD!!!!!
forget being the most popular player in china. over here in canada (toronto the biggest basketball city in canada) sold out of kobe jerseys. seriously, its rare to find a kobe bryant jersey in stores here cause its always sold out. dont get me started on Laker tickets when they come to toronto...sold out weeks before the season starts
I am a chinese basketball fan.. You(Americans) didn't konw how many chinese love Kobe bryant... Not only what he have done on the ground . The most is his spirit. 2008 Beijing Olympic will tell the world who is the most famous basketball player in this world. It's Kobe bryant!!!!! In all the games that Kobe have playde. When Kobe was on the freeline,The voice of "MVP .MVP....." shaken the world.. Thanks to Mj . Chinese konw NBA but Thanks to Kobe . Chinese love NBA!!!
Wow I thought I loved Kobe Bryant but you guys over there put us american Kobe Fans to shame. I love to see my favourite superstar get that kind of attention abroad. He soo deserves it. yes he is the best there is .
Beautiful.
