He shoulda learned from Lebron/Wade, gotta let go of your ego and team up with people, be friendly.
Everyone has a different way of doing it. Kobe has the Jordan attitude towards his teammates. Old school. Last of a dying breed. No buddy-buddy BS. 5 rings so far
Kobe run Shaq out of town after the guy gifted him 3 Rings,
If Kobe never played, Shaq wouldn't win those by himself. It's not gifted.
his personality was tolerated by ***** Beta Pau Gasoft and resulted in 2 rings, but now with Superteams you need to recruit and try to get along with other big ego stars.
That's right. The new cats nowadays just want to do it the easy way. Kobe should have joined prime Tmac and prime KG like Lebron did to prime Bosh and Wade?? You crazy. Hold your own and do it in your own town.
Kobe failed to do that with Howard, got a career ending injury trying to do it all himself to prove some moot point to his doubters and will now simply be remembered as an egomaniac with trust issues.
You're hating your ass off. He was playing his ass off to get his team in the playoffs. He was doing whatever it took to get there. Dwight left mainly cause of the coach man. Go read his interview. Do some research and watch some games. If the injury is career-ending is still to be seen.
Haters gonna hate.

Fact: Lebron teamed up with two other franchise players in their prime to win the chips. Just saying it's not like Lebron had no body.

Pau Gasol: 0-16 in the PO without Kobe.
Chris Bosh: 3-8 in the PO without Lebron.

Re: ESPN Los Angeles : "Nobody wants to play with Kobe"
Kobe has been caught on camera before telling people to "ship his teammates ass out" and now he is acting loyal? He went on a national tirade demanding to be traded and now he's mad at someone who leaves a lot of money on the table in order to give himself what he feels as the best shot to win? Kobe, who has never sacrificed money and whom is now making 30M a year, is upset at a free agent leaving?

Lebron scored 8 points in a finals game. And he wasn't relegated to the third or fouth option on offence (or a glorified garbage man).
I think Kobe would have loved this for his third option.

That's cause he choked. Everyone chokes. Lebron choked in the whole series against the Mavs. Doesn't make the statement false.
