If Shaq and Kobe squashed there egos and if Shaq would have stayed in shape the Lakers would have won the same amount of Championships as the Bulls did 6 or maybe more.. That's how good Shaq and Kobe we're together and the players around them..
With Kobe it's not just about ego alone. The media narrative wanted that to be the topic. It's really about Shaq's laziness and ego. Imagine you threatening the team and coaching staff that you will not play defense if you don't always get the ball. Coming into camp out of shape.

Fun Fact: Jerry West a 14x All-Star for the Lakers, who played from1960-74, then coach from 76-79 then as an executive from 1980-2002, and the GM for the Lakers who built the Showtime Lakers dynasty and then built the Shaq & Kobe dynasty who has worked and had great success for 42 yrs with the Lakers... but then Jennie Buss did not put him on her all-time MOST IMPORTANT Lakers five? WTF. Talk about an All-Time most underappreciated guy on any level ever in Jerry West smh
Arguably one of the greatest careers in all of sport in all jobs. He was a legend as a player a contending coach and a world class executive. Only larry bird can compete with him in terms of excelling in all jobs of sport
muhweei he is the most important Laker ever. It baffles me why the Buss family did not provide him any stake ownership of that franchise. If anyone be offered as a part owner and forever executive of the Lakers it should be Jerry West
I Bleed Purple And Gold Oh no shit 🙄 I mean he said that coz he was so underappreciated by the Lakers Organization. I mean he put the Lakers on the map together with Dr. Buss but West has been with the Lakers since 1960. Talk about taking for granted the person who made the Lakers that is today smh. I mean any loyal person would talk shit as well who worked for the organization for 42 yrs and still never gets the right credit he deserves 🙄
It is nice that these videos have a high production quality. There are other creators out there, but they don't have the same Video Editing skills as theScore.
You know what's really interesting. Vlade Divac and Kobe would actually match up really well since Vlade was more of a passing center and didn't care for being a scorer. It would be just like the Kobe-Pau type of thing.
They wouldn’t have been anywhere close to as dominant with Kobe and Vlade over Shaq. And Vlade wouldn’t be the same as Pau. Being open to pass the ball is one thing but it’s important that the player is still a genuine offensive threat to score otherwise the opponent can just zero in on Kobe. A player leaning into passing is fine but they have to be enough of a threat to score to be the best duo. Pau was a scoring threat who averaged 18 points consistently to where he had to be kept in mind. Vlade the majority of his career averaged in the low double digits and wasn’t close to the offensive producer that either Shaq or Pau was. But neither Pau or Vlade at their best would hold a candle to the level of dominance Shaq was in the three peat. In the three years he averaged over 30 for the playoffs as a whole twice and 28 the third year. But when it came to the finals he was out of this world. Shaq averaged 38, 33 and 36 in those finals. He was so dominant those years his production just wasn’t replaceable and that’s why the conflict was so immense. Kobe was great too but how do you expect Shaq to not think it’s his team when he’s playing at the level he was? How do you tell the dude average mid 30 to nearly 40 in the finals that he isn’t the lead dog? You don’t.
@@Matt-cr4vv Vlade was better than Pau, on offense and defense. Look at his numbers, but also take into account in which era he played and against whom.
Jerry Buss made the right damn decision. And Shaq has admitted as such. But Jesus. If he (and Phil) just accepts the 1&2 role switch, they win 6+ rings together.
I mean I think that's the most impressive accomplishment that no one will ever accomplish again: BE A STARTER FOR THE ALL STAR GAME WHEN YOU ARENT EVEN STARTING FOR YOUR OWN TEAM
They didn’t leave chips on the table. Their team ran its course. They had already been taken out by the Spurs in 03 and again by the Pistons in 04. It was a wrap.
Shaq’s always been a big, insecure, ignorant $@?$@. He had problems at LSU with Jamie Brandon and Chris Jackson (now Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf), problems in Orlando with “Penny” and for anyone who understands black history in the Americas (i.e.,Willie Lynch tactics of divide and conquer), he/she knew the coupling of Shaq and Kobe wasn’t going to last very long...
@@melvynsngltn27 Shaq is a big, lovable, non-threatening sellout. Compare his and Kobe’s post-playing careers: Shaq’s on TNT buck-dancing for dollars; while Kobe was attempting to create an athletic apparel line to rival Nike and an international basketball league that some say may have one day threatened the NBA. This is chess, not checkers. Kobe’s very existence post-NBA was a threat to the establishment - they don’t want young black boys inspired to speak multiple languages, be entrepreneurs, autodidact intellectuals, and excel both on and off the field of play...
The “Showboat” nickname was given to Kobe by his teammate Byron Scott and used by many of the 1996-97 Lakers. In 2004 Karl Malone was a defensive specialist. He was injured in the Finals forcing the Lakers to start a Rookie Luke Walton against the Pistons best player, Rasheed Wallace. Walton was eaten alive by Wallace on offense and he was left open all series and missed so many shots that he became afraid to shoot. Shaq was double teamed by Ben and Rasheed Wallace all series and Kobe earned his “showboat” nickname by trying to MJ the Lakers to victory against the Jordan rules defense.
I don't know why they say Magic's return only lasted 9 games he played 32 games in the 1995 season, the 9 comes from the fact he only started 9 games but he still played in 32
They definitely could have gotten to six. I truly believe they could have, especially when you look at Shaq 1st two years with the heat the Eastern Conference Finals and then the finals if you keep Shaq on that Lakers team they do only thing is we don't see go for 81 I still see him getting that 62 in 3 quarters matter of fact I could have seen him get 80 or 90 in that game. And when Shaq would have started slowing down in 07, that's when Kobe would have stepped up and took over the team. But they needed it because you have seen them have success without each other, and Kobe legacy is looked at differently with getting those two without Shaq and Shaq getting that one without Kobe. Magic can't say he didn't get one without Karrem Michael. Jordan can't say I didn't get one without Scottie. But Shaq and Kobe can say that
They didn’t leave chips on the table. Their team ran its course. They had already been taken out by the Spurs in 03 and again by the Pistons in 04. It was a wrap.
The Miami Heat are responsible in one way or another for causing all of this chaos. By trading for Alonzo Mourning and attempting to trade for Juwan Howard. The Hornets were the mark. They got flossed SO BADLY. BADLY. Like school bullies taking lunch money from a smallchild. Jerrry West took advantage of the mayhem to get what he wanted. Smart man. Meanwhile the Heat would eventually benefit from the ripple affect YEARS later. A good portion of the players involved in these scenarios would end up on the Heat at some point between 2006 and 2013 and that would result in 3 Championships for the Heat. And 3 for the Lakers. Crazy. And almost all of them played with Shaq atleast for a season or 2.. Wait a minute. Pat Riley and Jerry West...didn't they play on the Lakers together or something?
It's still unbelievable that the stinking "Orlando Magic" franchise thought a rookie Superstar who took them to the finals in only his 3rd year was not worth all that money. I mean if it were some big market annual contender then we'd understand, but the Magic ??? Orlando ??? 😂😂 I guess they've won like 5 Championships we don't know about since then, clowns. 🤣
14:55 Another Kobe MJ similarity, their co-stars having surgery during the season instead of the off-season, which of course as competitive as they are, pisses them off.
To be honest I blame shaq for his ego for the dynasty break up, he should have been more of a leader / mentor but his ego got the best of him, I look at how David Robinson took a back seat to Tim Duncan for the spurs to be successful and how when shaq was traded to Miami he willing took a back seat to Dwade, why couldn't he have done that in LA with kobe? Jealousy comes to mind when you look back, kobe was younger more athletic, skilled and gifted with creativity and had a better relationship with Dr. Buss, that's probably why Buss traded shaq which was the right thing to do because shaq was aging plus dealing with constant injuries, shaq later admitted he could have taken less money to stay in LA as a lakers fan this really is disappointing. Egos always ruin everything 😒
Robinson didn't take a back seat by choice, Duncan was already better than him coming into the league. Robinson had injured his back and foot and was never the same.
With all due respect, you can't compare Shaq/Kobe to Shaq/Wade in relation to Robinson/Duncan. There are many aspects that you have to consider when speaking about those three duo's. All had different personalities and different times in careers when each other affected one anothers..but I will say the only aspect you got right was the ego's Shaq and Kobe had in their time with the Lakers together.
I was 8 when shaq was traded off the Lakers and I remember crying in my room for hours and then my dad came up and said don’t worry Kobe is something special the Lakers will win it again
After the 1999 season, for every lb that Shaq gained, kobe gained 1 point per game. If kobe had stayed in the league until the 2018 season, he would have averaged 80 points per game
@Jdjd Ndj “the Colorado incident.” A girl slept with three dudes in one night, Kobe being only the second, then claimed the one who was rich and famous raped her. Same girl got put in drug rehab by her family.
Ego, thats all and it happens two men Who are at peak of their carrer care about their own stuffs and wanna be great they would've not been human if they didn't have ego it was all meant to be rip mamba goat of our era
LeBron gets called the goat. Trouble is it's a different era, nba I don't think has the passion it used to. Ppl like kobe, Jordan, pippen used to win games cos of the passion. LeBron scores cos its easy
Please do The Story Behind Wade and Lebron, the good the bad and thr ugly. How Lebron saw Wade have a ring first with a legendary fi als perfomance. How Lebron webt to Wade and Wade gave up his team and his whole city and the Heatles were all time must watch tv!!
The part with Shaq & Beans saying I love U man to each other after the 2001 repeat in Philly then Shaq saying told u we're gonna do it clip was real & OG. They both are top 5 All time
The difference between Kobe and Shaq is that Shaq can accept being the sidekick if there is a better player on the team, he took a backseat with D-wade and during most of his late career. Kobe would never accept the backseat no matter what age or condition he is in, that’s true for the Kobe that averaged 7pts, 35pts or 17pts.
Shaq could of had 6 rings 1 with Penny and 1 if they best the Pistons or he could of had 2. 1 less because the game was rigged vs Kings and the Dallas series vs Heat
I think that they got the most out of that duo. After that 3rd championship it was time for a change. They actually stayed together 1 year longer than they should have. Phil, Shaq, and Kobe how those 3 egos fit together in the same room is a miracle alone.
I think the main thing wasn't them both being alphas but the drastically different personalities both had when it came to basketball. After the first championship Shaq started getting a little lazy and got up and played when he wanted too. Kobe was all about hard work and working your ass off in practice and in the summer. It was more Shaq's fault then anything lol
@@vizionaryentertainment8464 I agree. I think Shaq was relieved that he finally got his championships, and Kobe was obsessed with chasing MJ. The blame for the dysfunction is 50/50. With Phil siding more with Shaq because Phil wanted more short-term success.
