Interesting read on Kobe, Shaq and Kobe beef with Shaq!
At his peak (and pretty much most of his career) Shaq was a force of nature.
When he was playing in the NBA and taking all the punishment from “defenders” of opposing teams I was always amazed at his restraint and not retaliating back as many were throwing themselves at him to stop him and fall like flies 😀 If he retaliated it would have probably resulted in involuntary manslaughter 🙂 Wise of him not to retaliate!
Kobe was quite good too but I think Shaq made getting his first three rings easier
