I do not think it even matters who wants to play with Kobe. There are not many Shaqs running around in the NBA to be such a force in the middle. He pushed away one of the great players that can defend and score in the middle. Ben Wallace who is a great defensive player cannot even help out on the offensive end with that kind of frequency. When Wallace was with the Pistons, he was about the only starter on that team that was not an offensive threat. You need more than one man teams in the game of basketball. Even Jordan has a few players that could step up when he was not completely on.

Peace
