Really though. He can wear any jersey he wants to match whatever sneakers he's wearing that day, I don't care. Snoop has LA privileges. Snoop is one of our own and he put LA & LB on the map back in the 90s, most people around here don't forget about that...
I don't give a damn where's he's from. He claims he's a Lakers fan yet he wore a Boston jersey. Snoop is a bandwagon fan in every sense of the word.
I give a damn about where he's from. I was born and raised 20 minutes away from Long Beach... it's the same reason why I root for Harden and Westbrook. Local boys. Us around these parts still know that Snoop still reps the Lakers hard.
People are all over Jack Nicholson's nuts but no one gave him any crap when he went to 2nd rd. Clipper playoff games in '06 (after the Lakers were eliminated by the Suns). Who the F cares? Snoop means a lot to Cali and the local community, and I want to represent that amidst all the Snoop bashing.
And if you're somehow diminishing the notions/opinions of the Lakers' local fans and community, you might as well root for the Lakers from another planet. Texas is a start...
