Shaq and Kobe Share MVP

Former Lakers teammates, Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant, not only reunited on the West team for the 2009 All-Star game but also shared the MVP title.
"It felt like old times," O'Neal said. "I miss those times. He was really looking for me, especially when we went to a pick-and-roll and they had Rashard Lewis on me."
"I tell you what, those two guys together, that's a deadly combination as we all saw tonight and we have all seen in the past," East coach Mike Brown said. "They are where they are right now, but if they were to stay together, no telling how many more rings they would have had on their fingers and toes."
"We are not going to go back to the room and watch 'Steel Magnolias' or something like that, you know what I'm saying, crying, all that stuff," Bryant said. "We had a good time. That's all."
"I think it is a great life lesson for people," said West coach Phil Jackson, who led coached O'Neal and Bryant on the Lakers. "This is something that the people work together, people find a way to get through situations, find harmony in their life, find cohabitation." Source
I watched the game…barely but Shaq and Kobe were killing it. At least, they were killing it the few times I looked up from my computer. Sorry b-ball ain’t my thang.
