LMAO...Is this even a valid article? It seems like one of the many Kobe haters typed up a long essay about why he hates Kobe...LOL...It's actually pretty funny, Kobe is not playing his best, but is still putting up awesome numbers, averaging the most assists he ever has as well as leading the league in scoring...Pretty amazing...Kobe has come off as nothing but a nice guy, offering apologies to Shaq and Malone within this past week (for shit he hasn't even done)...But that's all right, when you're on top, there's always someone trying to bring you down...Just don't post up bullshit articles like this anymore, because it's just a bunch of Kobe bashing that doesn't really tell us something we didn't know...PeACe

Remember is was who got Phil and Shaq booted out of LA because he couldn't handle Phil's style and he wanted to be the man. And Kobe expects his teammates to give him 110%. That's selfish

Shaq demanded to be traded because he didn't want to play with Kobe any longer and wanted more money from the Lakers; money they weren't willing to offer...Kobe is the one who said he wouldn't mind playing with Shaq for the rest of his career...Damn man, get your facts straight.
How come Shaq said: "If Lakers dont trade me i'll retire"?Kobe, as a Free Agent, forced him to say so?It's not that we have our head in Kobe's ass. It's that Lakers GM and Lakers President both told the press Kobe NEVER asked to trade Shaq. So said Kobe's agent. So wrote Phil Jackson in his book.There's only Shaq who said it. Why should i trust you and Shaq over Kobe, Lakers president and former Lakers coach?
Aren't you the one who said Kobe and Shaq were best friends? Kobe wasn't going going to stay with the Lakers if Shaq was still there. And Shaq was tried of pretty up with Kobe's bullshit. You say Kobe said he wouldn't mind playing with Shaq the rest of his career. Nice how Kobe said that after Shaq is already in Miami. Also nice how Shaq isn't making more money with the Heat.You need to get your head out of Kobe's ass and face the truth. He's not as great as you think he is.
When Shaq's on a team, players get better. When it's just Kobe, your team just barely finishes above .500 and fights for the playoffs.
