Eventually, it also led to the breakup of an exceptional dynasty. But before that, both players attacked each other often in the media. In his book, Three-Ring Circus, Jeff Pearlman detailed one such instance where Kobe discussed Shaq’s toe injury. Kobe claimed that O’Neal’s injury wasn’t a big deal. He criticized the Lakers legend for missing 15 games due to it. Kobe Bryant also compared it to his own performance and how he played through pain and injuries. Bryant: “I don’t need Shaq’s advice on how to play hurt. I’ve played with IVs before . . . with a broken hand, a sprained ankle, a fractured tooth, a severed lip and a knee the size of a softball. I didn’t miss 15 games because of a toe injury that everybody knows wasn’t that serious.” Full article: https://thesportsrush.com/nba-news-dont-need-shaquille-oneals-advice-on-how-to-play-hurt-when-kobe-bryant-demeaned-7ft-1-center-for-missing-15-games/?amp$
