this book dropped today, it was done before Kobe‘s death so the writer might catch some heat about anything said bad about Kobe. He says there’s some new stuff in the book about the dynasty and relationship with them.

Fistfights, battle lines and Show(boat) time: Inside the Lakers' Kobe-Shaq dynasty

In his new book, "Three-Ring Circus: Kobe, Shaq, Phil, and the Crazy Years of the Lakers Dynasty," Jeff Pearlman reveals the inner workings of the Kobe-Shaq dynasty, full of behind-the-scenes infighting, untold hilarity and endless controversy.

Excerpts from the book. Became a must read for me. A fascinating piece that really emphasizes what made Kobe, Kobe. Dude was so driven and fearless. Amazing.

Pearlman has written some good books sports wise so I’ll definitely give this one a read.

On the radio/tv rounds he’s been making today, he has been saying that he added 3 pages in the beginning of the book to address that it was during the developmental period of his life. But said he expects to catch heat.

Rightfully so. She should have left him in the wind.

She stayed down!

Always had my doubts but to me that proved true love.

Perhaps to you it showed true love, however, money talks.

 

[fluid hips]

She stayed for the money and lifestyle it provided her...

I'm sure it helped her stay or was even a big factor. But i also believe there were other factors as well.

She may not have been with him shooting in the gym, but she was holding down the home front while he was away. Could he have paid anyone to do that? Sure. But fact is she did do it. They were a unit.

 

[babyface34]

"Chatty Patty" & Lipstick Alley nonsense aside, that Pearlman book sounds pretty interesting.

Such a silly, insecure reply, salty, kobe hurt your feelings.

With celebrity, attention follows, but I guess you have an issue understanding that. People are marketed as one thing, but reality unveils something a bit different. When that does happen? There will be people who cannot fathom that the image put forth through marketing, is somehow not true.

Deal with it.

 

[jape]

yup I’m the insecure one. not the guy who keeps coming in to a memorial thread about Kobe to slander him

 

[tatayniDarna]

That's cool and all but she filed a divorce not long ago

and she decided to stay and give their marriage another chance.

strong woman right there tbh

 

[tatayniDarna]

they didn’t have prenup

she couldve cashed out, took half ...easily with kobe’s background of infedility.

she didn’t and they had another child or two.

Whether or not a person comes into a thread to discuss a topic does not suggest an insecurity, nor is anything being discussed indeed slander. Kobe Bryant and his wife indeed had issues, and she chose to stay with him, regardless of the reason. However, it isn't a lie, which is indeed slander, that he did things publicly that embarrassed her and their relationship, so much so, she considered divorce. All of this is factual.

You not willing to grasp this, is indeed delusional, intellectually dishonest, and then incredibly insecure.

None of this takes anything away from Kobe being a good basketball player, nor a great one.

Or incredibly smart, tactical.
