I chose Shaq. Sure Kobe was full of himself. His ego was second to none. He hogged the ball and was not a very good team player. That's what happens when you put millions of dollars in the pockets of an eighteen year old and hail him as the second coming of Jordan. Look at Lebron, he's no different. He calls himself "KingJames", now that's a big head.
As far as the statement to police, I really believe Kobe had no idea what he was doing. When he made that statement, his only concern was endorsements. Kobe had no idea what he was being charged with or the penalty.
I like Shaq but it is no question that HIS ego was the problem with Kobe. Kobe worked hard to be a good player, Shaq was just going thru the motions. When Shaq did the unthinkable, he needed surgery that would require weeks rest and he had all summer to do it. What did he do and say, He waited until preseason to have the surgery and stated, I got hurt on company time, I'll get treatment on company time. How selfish can you be?
