Why is that Lakers fans are the only fanbase

[midnightpulp]

who when their team wins a championship regard it as some kind of accomplishment that they personally achieved?

Not hating, here, really. Just an honest question. When the Spurs won, I was happy, but I didn't go all out gay like what's happening tonight.

You don't know what you're missing, Mid.

I got 16 NBA World Championships. And except for the birth of my boys they are my most prized possessions.

possible answer....

1) only thing to be proud of in LA
2) bangwagoners just want to feel good
3) group mentality/too 'fans' coerce other fans into thinking the same way
4) mental delusion

Nice analysis.

I think it's because the city depends so much on the Lakers when it comes to sports. If the Lakers were taken away from Los Angeles, Los Angeles would be like a Seattle or Cleveland when it comes to sports. Laker fans should be thankful that their team has been good for so long.

they're right, a team is nothing without its fans

because they are mostly just a bunch of arrogant faggots; kinda like their pseudo-"leader" in kome cryant
