Shaq had the first laugh after he was traded to the heat & won Miami a championship and Kobe was going through a lot of drama too. The sexual allegation rape case and he wasn't on good terms with the organization. Including disrespecting his teammates....

Kobe looks like he's getting the last laugh, since he's won two more championships and can win maybe one or two more... Shaq left miami & the lakers on a bad note. He couldn't even help the suns , cavs , and celtics. I understand he was aging , but he was still conceited about giving those teams rings. Maybe not Boston.

Currently Shaq is writing a book about his basketball career. I remember seeing a preview of it. It had a lot of reference towards the shaq/kobe controversy. If it becomes a best seller and kobe's knees can't hold up anymore whenever the season starts again. Shaq will once again have the last laugh.

What up Hair Canada,

Who had the first laugh? Shaq- he was born before Kobe- and he's always laughing.

In terms of overall legacy i think Kobe still has a ring or two left in him and i think that Shaq's comments today about LeBron shows that he is fading into obscurity but trying to remain relevant. Shaq over the last couple of seasons of is his legacy he really did have a chance to be the greatest center of all-time but his lack of work ethic throughout his career is evident. He was actually very lucky that he lost 50 lbs when the Lakers traded him to the Heat because his career could have ended a lot earlier.

Kobe is slowing down but he's able to keep on at the level he is because of his incredible work ethic.

Kobe surely had the last laugh because compare the stats and rings achieved.. kobe could shoot for 6 or 7 at this point..

First & Last is Kobe...... Won all his rings with the team he was drafted to..... While Shaq just looked desperate for a ring jumping from team to team.


Prime Shaq> Prime Kobe tho

Shaq has had the first laugh and will have the last laugh. A few years after kobe retires people will realize that Shaq was an overall better player than Kobe and will have a better legacy.
