Kobe admits he was wrong and a dumbfuck when dealing with Shaq back in the day
Kobe Bryant went face-to-face with Shaquille O'Neal on Shaq's podcast -- and both NBA stars expressed serious regrets about the way things played out between them over the years.
During the interview on "The Big Podcast With Shaq" -- which airs Monday -- co-host John Kinkade asked the former Lakers teammates if there was anything they'd like to take back from over the years.
Kobe admits he was "an idiot when I was a kid" -- and explains that he should've kept his mouth shut instead of griping about his beef with Shaq in the media.
"I think having our debates within the press was something I wish would’ve been avoided."
As for Shaq, his big regret was leaving Los Angeles -- saying, "I definitely did not want to leave L.A., but you know that’s how you’ve got to talk when you’re in business, especially when you think you’re in control."
He added, "A lot of stuff was said out of the heat of the moment."

koME admitting to something that everyone already knows........that he was the Biggest, most Selfish Dumb-ass ever! If he would have just waited just his turn, which would've come after about 2 years, those lakers teams would've won more titles.
He wanted to be the #1. But after one or two more year of being #2, his time would've come, and with SHAQ as his #2!!! But........too damn selfish......
koME, the biggest Chucker of all time.

Kobe is like that old dude on his death bed, getting things off his chest before he croaks. He knows the time is near, and it is all but over.

When the season is over, and he announces his retirement.

Could've, and Should've won more if he would've kept his Ego in check. With both of those players just switching roles AFTER 1 or 2 more years, they could've made History!
If koME plays and accepts his role in 2003, they WIN the title that year! That would have been 4 Titles in row!!!! WOW!!
If he waits one more year and plays the #2 Role for the last time in 2004, they win their 5th Title in a row!!!
After that 5th title as the #2, is when he gets his chance as the #1, with Shaq still having at least 4 more years of Excellent play as the #2. From 04' to 07', Shaq's #'s:
21ppg, 59.5FG%, 10rbs, 2.5asts, 2blks per game! Those 4 years as a #2, they win more titles!
But.......instead of playing and accepting his role for just those 2 short years, he sabotages his team. Selfishness on a Historical Level! They lost because of him! How lakers fans can forgive him for that......for the History that could've been..
I would rather DIE Standing on my Feet, than Live Life on my Knees!!

at least kobe has the fact he was a teen during some of those years as a reason for being an ass at times.
shaq, on the other hand, was the elder player and was supposed to be setting the example rather than being a overgrown child.
oh well shaq was shown the door, the lakers struggled for a little bit but the team regained that former glory sans shaqs' punk ass.
good times.
