Shaq–Kobe feud
The Shaq–Kobe feud was the conflict between National Basketball Association (NBA) players Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, who played for the Los Angeles Lakers from 1996–2004. O'Neal and Bryant won three consecutive NBA championships (2000, 2001, 2002), and appeared in the 2004 NBA Finals. O'Neal was the NBA Finals MVP in each of their victories. After years of arguments over their roles on the Lakers, a trade sent O'Neal to the Miami Heat while Bryant was re-signed as a free agent. Lakers head coach Phil Jackson wrote a 2004 book, The Last Season: A Team in Search of Its Soul, reflecting on Bryant and O'Neal's troubles during their last season together.
