The two stars’ feud lasted for several years on and off the court
For Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal, things didn’t start well right away since, according to rumors, O’Neal became envious of Kobe’s shirt sales a few years into their partnership with the Lakers. At the beginning of the new century, Kobe accused Shaq of being out of shape during their workouts, which made matters worse and forced their coach to intervene. According to rumors, Phil Jackson referred to Kobe and Shaq as “juvenile” because they would still argue and not always support one another on the floor. The two players’ argument soon grew more heated when Kobe even implied that Shaq could be a little too sensitive to criticism.

Shaquille O’Neal had plenty to say about Kobe Bryant’s affairs
Over the years, the NBA has had its fair share of scandals. The first was about Kobe Bryant’s supposed extramarital relationships. In order to dispel the accusations, the late athlete was also charged with inappropriate behavior and was compelled to issue a public statement. Nobody could have predicted Shaquille O’Neal’s reaction to the news. Because they were opposing teammates, Shaq had something to say about it all and expressed his opinions in a 2008 freestyle rap. The athlete said in the rap that Kobe paid women $1 million to remain quiet about their connections; he then said, “This whole situation is ridiculous,” to ESPN.
