Shaq: "There's only 2 players to ever withstand my hazing and I had to release what I was doing to them because of their toughness, Kobe Bryant and Goran Dragic."

SVG LeBron really was carrying that team in Cleveland In fact the guy we had the most trouble with other than LeBron was Wally Szczerbiak No knock on Wally Szczerbiak but he is not Pau Gasol It wasn't because Kobe was necessarily better than LeBron he just had more around him

Kobe ends Spain, brings home the Gold after the USA boys panic and defer to Bryant in crunch time
