    Though Shaq was dominant the 1st 3 quarters he was never a go to player down the stretch of games. He was probably more of a liability than anything. Plus him coming in camp fat & over weight not wanting to work out would piss me off, especially if that same fat guy's tryna boss me around. Kobe's gripe was legitimate, he just handled it in a immature way

    Dwight wasn't willing to rebound all those bricks from Kobrick - Leading NBA all time bricker.

    Nope... Just nope.

    Sooooo much wrong with this post. In fact, I'd say that there isn't ONE factual statement in it.

    That comment can be interpreted in so many ways. Does he break it down on specific points as to the why? Otherwise, he sounds like a child trying to get back at Dwight because things didn't work out. And, if it was so bad, then why were they trying to bring Dwight back?

    This is just Kobe being Kobe. Imagine all the players who could say the same thing about him. He's nowhere near the team player Dwight is.

    Kobe always speaks the truth. Friends can come and go, but banners hang forever.

    Funny thing is, Jordan is possibly at least as big a tool as Kobe, maybe even bigger.

    Well, I don't know about most of the post, but Dream in his prime was light years ahead of Shaq in his prime. Shaq was great, don't get me wrong, but I am taking prime Dream over prime Shaq every day of the week.

    Jordan could be an ******* on the court not in general everyday life.
