Los Angeles fans chant ‘Kobe’ at LeBron James as he watches the Rams

LeBron James warrants attention no matter where he is, and if he’s in a rival city, sometimes that attention is a bit different than he’s used to.

When James went to the first regular season game in Los Angeles in 22 years to watch the Rams take on the Seattle Seahawks, fans chanted the name of a pretty popular Los Angeles basketball player.

Yes, those are “Kobe” chants that you are hearing.

James is in Laker territory, could he have expected any other reception?
