Yeah, I know which one I am.
But you seem to be implying that those who 'really watch the game' are going to pick Kobe, as if you're not a true basketball fan unless you understand that Kobe's the best. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that's not what you mean.
It is interesting as futuristxen said to compare the results of the casual fan poll on ESPN vs. the basketballforum poll. It does seem to indicate that Kobe has a lot of casual fans compared to a lot of other NBA players. Maybe it's the market he plays in, maybe it's that he's been so good for so long. But the poll results are very different from what you get when you poll people who discuss basketball on a daily basis, when the results are much closer.
