Shaquille O’Neal Debunks Kobe Bryant Beef Rumors With Logan Paul and Jake Paul Comparison: “I Could Never Do It by Myself”

There have been a lot of rumors of a beef between Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant. Over the past few years, Shaq has been letting the world know that there was no beef and there were just disagreements and arguments. The Lakers legend was recently on the ‘Impalusive’ podcast where he debunked it again using a Jake Paul and Logan Paul comparison.

Kobe and Shaq are one of the greatest duos of all time, but their relationship was reportedly strained. There were stories where the two butted heads in practice and they were also scuffling between the two legends. Few reports also claimed that the two didn’t see eye to eye, which became the reason why Shaq was traded.

At the same time, they won three titles together. They were arguably the greatest one-two punch in NBA history and were the core pillars of the Los Angeles Lakers dynasty.
