Lakers Fan Taunting Bill Simmons at Game 7

I've been a fan of Bill Simmons, aka "The Sports Guy" for well over a decade.

But he's a total Boston homer and his anti-Kobe grudge goes too far, and I had the chance to gloat a little at Game 7. I got a little excited, but hey, consider the circumstances.

Bill can talk about Kobe going 6 for 24 in game 7 all he wants, but that doesn't diminish the fact that he went 29/6/5.5 through the playoffs, 29/8/4 through the Finals, all on a bum knee and a broken finger, with virtually no rest since the summer of 2007. Only a jaded cynic would belittle his accomplishments, or try to insist that KB24 is still well behind Tim Duncan in the pantheon.

Right now, the only number that matters is this: 5.

As in 5 NBA Championships.

Bill, even Larry Legend (3 championships) looks up at Kobe in the pantheon. Time for you to as well.

Clip highlights:

0:13 First taunting of Bill Simmons
0:35 The fight of the Spaniard
1:05 Ron Ron's delirious 3
1:22 Mamba at the line
2:15 Purple and gold confetti falling on Simmons' head
2:26 Post-game taunting, Bill in denial
3:24 Bill watching Kobe get the MVP, delicious irony
4:26 Bill, where does this rank on your level of losing?!

Lol love how this video ends with "Credit to all the Laker fans who kept the faith." wtf? You'd just won last year, and you're thanking fans for not bailing down 3-2?

I don't particularly like the Lakers or the Celtics, but it's so much fun watching this Homer get heckled. lol

Awesome video

Simmons is fair most of the time, but he does take some digs at the Lakers that go too far. And if you read his book, you know Simmons was pretty pissed about losing. lol
