Kobe won with and after Shaq left. Lejerk couldnt win on his own so he had to orchestrate and all-star team to try to win. That Yankee hat he wears suits him just fine. Best team money can buy.......maybe!
Now I'm not defending Lebron's actions at all, but Kobe is just as bad if not worse than Lebron. I think people have forgotten that he forced Shaq out of LA because he wanted his team. Then whined when the Lakers stunk. Finally, after enough whining the NBA giftwrapped Pau Gasol to him, and the rest is history. Kobe already had the big market in LA so he didn't need to leave. He just needed guys like Odom, Gasol, Bynum, Fisher, etc. Lebron on the other hand went about it a little differently than Kobe. He held the city of Cleveland hostage all summer. Making sure they couldn't get anything in return for him. Having that ridiculous ESPN hour long special to say "I'm taking my talents to South Beach". Conspiring with Wade and Bosch to form an all star team in Miami. In turn crapping on the city that worshiped him for the bigger market in Miami. In the end they are both arrogant a$$holes.
Next up is Carmello Anthony who will be in New York with Amare Stoudamire next year. Chris Paul will be soon to follow. Like I said on a previous NBA thread the league is becoming a joke.
