If you thought all the Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal drama was behind us now that Shaq has retired, you were wrong. Or maybe Kobe just felt he could get the last word in while visiting another country and Shaq wouldn’t find out. Well you were wrong Mamba. Media and bloggers are everywhere.

During the interview in Radio, Bryant also spoke about his ‘enemy’ Shaquille O’Neal. “I like players who workout. I use to do that 6/7 hours per day. I cannot stand players who practice for 30 minutes. I need to say something to them”.
Kobe likes to work out? Who knew. And seriously, its not like Kobe really needed to complain about Shaq back in those days regardless of whether or not he was puttin’ in work. Shaq was carrying the team to the promise land. Isn’t that what matters?
