A trainwreck can also be exciting to watch, we suppose.
Magic Johnson is pleased with his beloved Los Angeles Lakers’ play thus far this season, their horrific 0-5 record be damned:
I know the Lakers are 0-5, but they are playing exciting basketball and Kobe is worth the price of admission.

Kobe should also be in the early MVP talks with LeBron, Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, Anthony Davis, Carmelo, Curry, Thompson and Rose.

Former Laker coach Phil Jackson also came to Kobe Bryant’s defense Wednesday, as fans and media criticized the amount of shots he’s taking:
Look it. Bo is prolific…he can overwhelm, just like Kobe. Like to hear
his comments cause he takes good shots, just like Kobe. Ahem
