Exactly

And those stars that came to play with him just to get a ring? Over the Hill coat tail riders. Both were superstars at one time but didn't get their ring then, came to see if Kobe could do it for them.

I agree that they were over-the-hill but were willing to take a substantial cut in pay to chase a ring with Kobe. And it might have worked if not for Colorado.

Kobe's biggest downfall will always be not shutting his mouth and playing with Shaq for as long as he could. I am not a Shaq fan either but between the two teams had a hard time covering them.

Between the two of them they might have had 5 or 6 rings but there was only one basketball and they didn't know how to share.

I hear you on watching the games. I catch five or six during the regular season and then watch most of the playoffs. Unfortunately, I live in Spurs territory and have to put up with them. They get too obnoxious and I just bring up ".4".

Bummer

So Kobe is still a Laker tonight and not a Bull....
