Westbrook was never one of my favorite players during most of his prime, but seeing how Westbrook has handled his last few years helped me gain a lot of respect for him.

Sure he never was the lead guy on a championship team, but his competitiveness is amazing. He played his best through all the Lakers drama. Westbrook also put up 37 in a playoff game in the most recent playoffs. I'm quite a huge fan of this late-career Westbrook.

Kobe - when I first started following the NBA as a kid, Kobe was the player I liked to root against. Near the end of his career I had nothing but love for him.

100%. After the first few games of his, I wanted him to succeed and become an alltime great laker and lead them in the next big rivalry.

Especially with Tatum going third.

I really hope he can stay healthy some time.

The most fun times for me were the big 3 vs Kobe and Pau. Also bird vs magic was really nice getting into basketball at a young age.

Those were special rivalries. They really hated each other. I loved it!
