GRAY: Kobe, Shaq said if you didn't like what he had to say you can opt out and leave next season. Will you leave the Lakers?
BRYANT: I won't make that decision until the end of the season. I told Shaq last year that I was planning on opting out. He knew before anyone. I told him out of respect for what we have been through together. I thought he should be the first to know. The fact that he acts like this is such a big shock is a mystery to me. If leaving the Lakers at the end of the season is what I decide, a major reason for that will be Shaq's childlike selfishness and jealousy.
GRAY: Do you feel Shaq has been supportive in regards to your legal situation?
BRYANT: He is not my quote unquote "big brother." A big brother would have called to lend his support this summer. I heard absolutely nothing from him. I spoke to Devean [George], Rick [Fox], Mitch [Kupchak], Phil, and our owner Jerry Buss. And Shaq's own Uncle Jerome called and left three messages. Other teammates like Derek [Fisher], Mark [Madsen], and [Stanislav Medvedenko] left messages as well. Opponents called like [Chris] Webber, [Mike] Bibby, and many others. So did a lot of coaches. Michael Jordan, who didn't have my home phone, tracked it down to lend his support. So did Tiger Woods. But yet from my so-called big brother, I heard nothing.
GRAY: Shaq says that you have not been a team player. Is he right?
BRYANT: That's ridiculous. I have been successfully sacrificing my game for years for Shaq. That's what Phil [Jackson] wanted me to do, so I did it. Last year Phil told me Shaq was not in physical condition to carry the trust of our offense, so he asked me to do it. But then he saw Shaq was getting upset that the team wasn't running through him, so Phil asked me to pull back and I did. This year is no different; my role is whatever Phil wants it to be.

TGayZ1. Bullshit. Pateik šaltinį, kur Jerry Bussas PRISIIMTA KALTĘ IR PRAŠO NESKRIAUSTI KOBĖS. Shaqas buvo neabejotinai geriausias komandos žaidėjas, jis buvo vertas max kontrakto.2. Bullcrap, pasakos.3. Bullpoop. Jis geriausias komandos žaidėjas, 32 metai nėra daug. Visi, išskyrus Duncaną ir Heat trijulę visada bando išmelžti kiek įmanoma daugiau pinigų. Shaq'as buvo jų vertas, nesuprantu kur čia durnumas. Dėl tavo paskutinio sakinio, kur kažką rašei apie Kobe gerumą. http://blogimages.thescore.com/tbj/files... Ar teko stebėti 2004 finalą Lakers-Pistons ? Lakers buvo favoritai prieš finalą, bet "I'm tired of being a sidekick." sugriovė seriją bandydamas perimti komandos lyderio rolę.4. True. Dėl antro sakinio - jis daug ką sako, tai nereikškia, kad taip ir galvoja ar daro/darys. Jis yra sakęs, kad daugiau nebeapgaudinės savo žmonos po tos išprievartavimo bylos. Deja, Kobe Bryant’s Wife Accuses Him Of Cheating With 105 Women http://newsone.com/1745605/kobe-bryants-...Žodžiu, nebegaruok.
Nežinau kodėl su hater'iu ginčijuos, bet juokinga, kad visiškai nesidomėjęs istorija bandai kalbėt apie ją kaip ekspertas koks. Atrodo, kad tik trolini, bet tiek to, gal kitiem įdomu bus paskaityt
1-3. NUSIPELNĖ 29 MILIJONŲ KONTRAKTO EXTENSIONO? Niekas, išskyrus MJ nebūtų gavęs tokio kontrakto, Shaqas akivaizdžiai buvo declineines, sustorėjęs, sezone darė 22-12 ir jam 32.
Kad nebešūkautum su bullcracp bullpoop bullshit paklausyk pačių tų žmonių žodžius
TGayZTdayz, show some respect to the man who carried KoMe to 3 championships. Kobe is responsible for ruining Lakers. He couldn't stand being the second man in the team, so he forced Shaq out of LA."Will Shaq's presence on this team color your decision to come back or not?" I asked him."Yes, it does," he said."There's no doubt about that," he said. "I've done that for eight years with him, but I'm tired of being a sidekick."I'm tired of being a sidekick.I'm tired of being a sidekick.I'm tired of being a sidekick.
Yra keturi žmonės kalti dėl LAL 00' susikaldymo.
1. Jerry Bussas, KURIS PRISIIMĖ KALTĘ DĖL TO IR PRAŠĖ NEKALTINT KOBĖS. Nes Shaqas norėjo ilgalaikio maxinio kontrakto ir niekaip kitaip, nors jam jau buvo 32eji.
2. Phil Jackson, už tai, kad sukūrė neapykantą tarp Kobės ir Shaqo ir taip darydamas persistengė ir perlaikė tą jų pykimą viens ant kito. PJ tą patį darė su bullsais, motyvuodamas juos įrodyt Jerry Krausui, kad ne front ofisas, o žaidėjai laimi žiedus, skirtingai negu sakė Jerry. Tokiu pat būdu PJ motyvuodavo komandą ir padarė Kobę komandos outsideriu.
3. Shaq. Už durną galvą pateikiant ultimatumą su kontraktu, už durną galvą bandant kobę teasint po rookie sezono, už durną galvą bandant sukiršint komandos draugus su kobe, už durną galvą pradėjus feudą ir paskui išsiverkus visai medijai ir suvertus kaltę ant kobės, kad jis nesibaigia, kai jis staiga to panorėjo. Už durną galvą stengiantis sumenkint bet kurį savo sidekicką, penny, kobe. Bėda, kad Kobė dar Shaqui būnant lakersuose tapo geresniu žaidėju už Shaqą, tada ir prasidėjo feudo pikas.
4. Kobe, už tai, kad nenorėjo būt sidekicku. Aišku po to ne kartą yra sakęs, kad jie toliau būtų galėję egzistuot ir, kad būtų daręs viską, kad laimėt.
TGayZ“The other players on the team wanted to make sure [Kobe] earned everything he got, that the coach didn’t just give him something just because the fans wanted to see this young phenom play,” recalled Del Harris, Bryant’s first coach with the Lakers.That was especially true of Shaquille O’Neal, the game’s dominant young center who felt immense pressure to win championships. Each season his dislike of Bryant had grown.“What surprised me about Shaquille during our early days in Los Angeles was how frustrated he got,” said former Lakers GM Jerry West. “He was not fun to be around. The shortcomings of our team and his teammates made him angry because he knew he was going to be judged on how much we won.”How angry?Just months before Jackson arrived, O’Neal had slapped Bryant during a pickup game at the Laker practice facility.“It would not be forgotten,” former Laker guard Derek Fisher said of the incident.When Jackson and his coaching staff began work in Los Angeles, they were caught off guard by O’Neal’s level of animosity toward Bryant.“There was a lot of hatred in his heart,” Tex Winter said of O’Neal. “he would speak his mind in our team meetings. He was saying really hateful things. Kobe just took it and kept going.We don’t think it’s any secret that Shaq can be extremely petty, especially when it comes to Kobe. That said, we’re sure Kobe deserved the slapping.
Nes Shaqas nekenčia, kad kas nors komandoj be jo gautų spotlightą, jis turbūt didžiausias savanaudis kurį esu matęs nba istorijoj, per savo bukumą sugadino lakersus, paskui majamį Wade'as buvo pirmas nr tai po žiedo dar ir traumas simuliuot pradėjo vien tam, kad būtų iškeistas. Galiausiai suprato, kad jau per senas.

INDIANAPOLIS -- In his new role of captain of the Eastern Conference for All-Star Saturday, Dwyane Wade is applying some peer pressure to Miami Heat teammate LeBron James to take part.
Wade, who has input on whom the NBA selects to take part in the popular events, tried to get James to re-consider his long-standing policy of saying no to the Slam Dunk contest.
"I tried to convince LeBron," Wade said Friday before the Heat took on the Indiana Pacers.
"On the dunk contest?" James said when Wade asked. "Oh no, that's out."
"I told him I'd throw him a lob and we'll win," Wade said. "He turned me down; I think he got nervous."
Wade also tried to get James to consider taking part in the 3-point shootout for the first time. James is shooting a career-high 40 percent from 3-point range this season.
"I went 0-for-2," Wade said. "He said he didn't want to shoot."
When asked Friday, though, James said he hadn't ruled out the 3-point contest. Wade said former Marquette teammate and New York Knicks forward Steve Novak would be in the contest and that current Heat teammate Ray Allen would not be so Allen could have the time off.
The NBA is revamping its popular All-Star Weekend festivities and Wade and Los Angeles Clippers star Chris Paul have been chosen as captains in a new format that will pit the conferences against each other. The league will get final say on the participants but Wade and Paul have been consultedŽiūrėti...

The star rookie in the league that season was center Walt Bellamy of the expansion Chicago Packers. Bellamy, a 6-foot-10 jump shooter, averaged 30 points per game. He had a formal air about him and as he walked onto the court for the opening tipoff for his much-anticipated first NBA game against the Dipper, he extended his hand and said, "Hello, Mister Chamberlain, I'm Walter Bellamy."
Chamberlain extended his hand and said, "Hello, Walter. You won't get a shot off in the first half."
That night, Big Bells couldn't shoot. He couldn't breathe.Žiūrėti...
Wilt’s personal record was 23 different women in 10 days. As his lawyer Seymour “Sy” Goldberg put it, “Some people collect stamps, Wilt collected women.” His million dollar mansion in Bel-Air, California, was famous for miniature Playboy Mansion-like parties in which he lived out his child-hood fantasies of sex with multiple women. He had a special playroom built with a wall-to-wall waterbed floor, just for such occasions.Žiūrėti...
BenasESPN: Do you ever see the day where it would be possible for you to sit down, have a talk with Kobe Bryant?SHAQ: Who?ESPN: Kobe Bryant.SHAQ: You know what I am not familiar with that name, I know a lot of names and I have a lot of names in my head, but I am not familiar with that name. Especially if there is nothing to talk about, I’m sorry I can’t recall that name.“In the seven or eight years we were together, we were never together.” (On Kobe Bryant.)Lakers owner Jerry Buss said Wednesday he didn’t regret trading O’Neal to the Heat despite the Lakers’ struggles this season without him.O’Neal responded to Buss’ comments Thursday.“I don’t regret him losing money and him not making the playoffs,” O’Neal said.Buss also said that O’Neal lost weight last off-season (approximately 30 pounds) only because the trade to Miami motivated him.O’Neal refuted that claim while taking a shot at his former team’s owner.“I didn’t need motivation,” O’Neal said. “I needed a real owner like Micky Arison, not a guy that parties with girls three times [younger than him] -- when you’re 60, hang out with 60-year-olds, not 20-year-olds. You can quote me on that. I’ve got nothing else to say about Jerry Buss.”
