And wasn't Shaq out for most of one season because of his big toe?

Toocute,
I agree with you. The diesel has NO ROOM to talk the way he came in last year (fat) and played w/ his injury last year. But from a team point of view, Kobe, while really talented, looks great becuase of the pressure Shaq puts on a defense. Shaq forces double teams, which messes up the defense. It's easier for KB to get to the rim against a scrambled defense than a set one.
Here's a thought. Without Kobe, I don't think Shaq wins 3 rings; maybe one by now...but without Shaq, how many titles does Kobe have??
It's a shame these boys can't play in the same sandbox together.
