There is no denying the well-known arguments between Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant when they were players for the Los Angeles Lakers. But it’s important to remember that their relationship wasn’t all bad. In fact, they spurred one another on during crucial times, particularly on the court. They both look beautiful together, so it makes sense that a new video has gone viral on social media.

Shaq was having trouble dominating Tim Duncan at the rim during a game against their Western Conference opponents, the San Antonio Spurs, and he was even completely blocked once. Fans can’t get enough of the profanity-laced speech that a very young Kobe chose to give his big guy in order to stimulate him. He said:
“Put that b*tch a** n**** through the goddamn hole”

The two had a great understanding of how to inspire one another, particularly in the latter part of the Los Angeles Lakers’ historic run in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Naturally, both players wanted to dominate this squad more than any other because the San Antonio Spurs were a contender at the same time as them.
Bryant trash-talked during the majority of the Spurs games. After all, he was a notorious trash-talker during his career—possibly the best ever at it, as many people know. In actuality, the Lakers legend’s words weren’t as crude as Gilbert Arenas portrayed it. It was more of the kind that would make you stop and think.
