Kobe
Shaq
They're both petulant little prima donnas and neither of them is remotely as blameless as he'd like to make everyone think.
Shaq probably isn't a good guy off the court either. He's a backstabber no matter where he's at or what he's doing. He's burned bridges and pissed people off everywhere he's been, and he's taken many cheap shots at people (Chris Quinn?? WTF?) that you would think hadn't done jack to him.
No wonder he's divorced and his wife is claiming he has a small pecker.
Kobe, just cause he ed the wrong , doesn't mean he could throw another male under the bus along with him.
In Shaq's book Shaq compltely trashed DRob. Said he couldn't believe that soft ass won a le before him.This reminds me of the only time I ever actually heard David Robinson diss anyone. Shaq had just released his first book, and the writers all asked David how he felt about being in the book. David responded something like "Shaq has a book? Does it have lots of pictures in it?"
He also lied about Drob dissing him for an autograph in highschool....Said when Drob came to the Spurs he was in highschool in SA and DRob refused to give him an autograph.
Was a lie because he was already going to LSU when DRob came to the Spurs.
So they asked Drob was he thought about the comments in Shaq's book and DRob said, "Shaq wrote a book? Must have been a coloring book".
Drob and Shaq, they had some issues...the biggest one being that Drob whipped dog out of Shaq his first 4 years in the NBA.

haaaaaaa!
Both. Both big time arrogant assholes.
Shaq seems like a really good guy if you're on his good side, but he'll turn on you quick. Almost pretentious in his personality. Kobe seems like an introvert off the court and would rather be private, but he doesn't appear to put on a front. He's pretty much a and he knows it and won't try to pretend he's not.
Both are s. But, Shaq tries to pretend he's not. Kobe knows he is and doesn't really hide it.
He also recalled going to the Alamodome and watching the games, and the thing wasn't even built yetIn Shaq's book Shaq compltely trashed DRob. Said he couldn't believe that soft ass won a le before him.

David Robinson is ing bad ass.
you forgot the other option, which is the one i vote for:
phil jackson.
and jerry buss
D.Robinson was definately a class act and a talent but sorry....he was soft.In Shaq's book Shaq compltely trashed DRob. Said he couldn't believe that soft ass won a le before him.

Shaq talks too much & when he's not being funny he's usually saying the wrong thing about someone else. Barkley did both at the same time.
Who cares? kobe is still a little
Shaq was a , Kobe was a .
Both suck but in different ways.
Kobe is an arrogant perfectionist that expects all of his teamates to have the same work ethic he has when that isn't realistic and thats why you have those episode where he calls out teamates ala Bynum.
Shaq on the other hand is narcicist who expects everybody to worship the ground he walks on. If you are not kissing his ass you will get blasted by him through the media or he will try to get you traded. If you look at all the people he has insulted it was all because they didn't praise him or worship. I was once talking to my brother how Duncan is a great teamate that he doesn't get jealous whenever Parker or Ginobili has great games that overshadow his contribution. With Shaq if his teamate plays great he wants them to give him credit for their performance.
All in all both are s.
I don't know what's wrong with Shaq in the last few weeks, I thought he mellowed out by the time he got traded to Miami, but he seems to have regressed--or he never really grew up in the first place. Maybe he has more baggage since his divorce and facing the reality that he's been relegated to roleplayer, therefore he is less inhibited.
But his against Miami seemed stupid even for Shaq's.
Anyway, I agree with the other comments, they both have ego problems, and both are annoying in different ways. Kobe knows how to save face better than Shaq -mediawise because he keeps his mouth shut, but he still manages to be pretty transparent.
what shaq did was wrong. hes a little
It's hard to Judge one piece of to be better than the another.
Hahaha!! Love that... Shaq had just released his first book, and the writers all asked David how he felt about being in the book. David responded something like "Shaq has a book? Does it have lots of pictures in it?"
Sorry Jamstone, I have to completely disagree with you there.
Yeah, Kobe is a smug, arrogant asshole, but he's also the biggest PHONY in the entire league.
He's so disingenuous its hard to take ANYTHING he says at face value.
Take his recent quote of Andrew Bynum:
"He became the type of player I DREAMED about playing with."
Give me a break Kobe. Do you think anyone believes you have basketball dreams about anyone but yourself?
Or when he surpassed Elgin Baylor on the Lakers' all-time scoring list:
Like a guy who spends his entire career attempting to plagarize Michael Jordan (right down to how he chews his gum, his run, his fist pumps, his spech patterns, his jump shot and several other mannerisms) NEVER even dreamed about being in the company of Elgin Baylor."I never in my wildest dreams dreamed of being in such great company like Elgin"
Elgin Who?
The reason people chant "Kobe Sucks" where ever he goes and why it never happened to Jordan is because America HATES phonies. Kobe is, and always will be, a Jordan POSER.
I used to think it was Kobe, because he sucks at life. I really dislike him, but it's hard to ignore the mul ude of ways in which Shaq is giant .
He's very immediate - the team he's on now always has the best players and the best chances and the best of everything, including himself. To validate that perspective, he has to trash what he just left, otherwise there is not justification for him leaving.
But he's a , however you look at it.
Yeah, Shaq's an ass. He went behind his bodyguard's back and took his woman (the same one he just had the nasty divorce with). Ask Kori how much of a prick this guy is.
You lose the right to seriously call anyone else soft when your team is the Suns.
Well to be fair...Drob did kick his ass pretty severely, made him look bad, flat out ing took him to school. I don't really blame Shaq for not liking it...Shaq talks too much & when he's not being funny he's usually saying the wrong thing about someone else. Barkley did both at the same time.
"Shaq wrote a book? Must have been a coloring book."
Soft indeed
Like a Cobra is soft
Can the marshmallow truly be trusted to define what is soft? I think not.
Lesson #1
Navy Cadette Training > LSU Training
6 Years in Navy >>>> 3 Years in college then the NBA and Kazzam movies.
Playing through Olympics with a hernia >>>>> Getting surgery on "company time"
Going through Shaq on last legs to end a dynasty > near prime Shaq Getting whupped by a guy often with no feeling in his legs due to back injuries, and hernias, and torn meniscusesesesesessses.
Soft cannot objectively judge what is soft, for it is soft personified. Remember that little little tidbit of info and this won't happen to you again.
