      You don't get it....
      That Shaq mending fences with Kobe interview was for Shaq benefit only. If he fraudulently supports Kobe in goat talks, then he is fraudulently giving himself a leg up from any new people joining the all time top 10.
      Kobe is barely top 10, so by keeping Kobe in goat talks, since Shaq is better than Kobe. It is a support tool to elevate himself.

    To put the value of NBA fines into perspective: Jamal Murray makes $36,016,200 this season, so a $100,000 fine is 0.28% of his salary. A person making $60,000 salary would be fined $167 at that percentage.
    Draymond, you’re awesome man, but your comment that the NBA doesn’t set players up for wealth or that these fines are unfair is so out of touch with normal people. You made over $24M this year, which is what a doctor making $400K would make in 60 years! And doctors pay taxes too.

    this almost felt too short, you guys have such a similar vibe and bounce off of eachother so well and respectfully. one of my favorite episodes! dray will always be one of my favorite players, he’s just so intelligent when it comes to the game. splash bro’s forever 💯 hope yall stay together but i’ll get it if anyone has to do what they have to do for a ring/to continue winning. if they don’t want to separate then something has to be done to help steph win instead of ending his time with his bro’s losing more than winning. even if he can do it out of love, i don’t want to see greatness continue not to have help. So it’s very conflicting, it reminds me of when kobe didn’t have help with his younger guys specifically at the end of his career.

This was in the spirit of doing him a HUGE favor and not allowing it to affect the series outcome. A series in which they ended up DOWN 3-1. Doing what he did to Lebron was a questionable flagrant 1 foul but the gift he got against okc is never talked about when they talk about this

    Iguodala would be a better defensive option for Kobe than Klay. He could keep him busy at least.

      Ehh have you seen Kobe play? Have you watched videos on here of what NBA players had to say about guarding Kobe? 😳
      When you do be sure to watch the video of the "Kobe Stopper" and see how that turned out for him. 😂

      Iggy was not as aggressive as that dude and Kobe cooked him. That should tell you something.

      @@B1Kobe0824 get your reading comprehension right. We’re talking about golden state here honey. Wtf are you talking about. Nobody gives a fuck about Ruben Patterson. Listen to Shaq and then read my comment. Iggy is a better defensive option than Klay. No one is saying people can guard Kobe, that’s why he averaged 25.

    Shaq and Kobe is the best tandem ever. 3 straight. Only reason they don't have more rings is the immaturity between them. No team was better. Fight me
