On July 15, the latest list of top 100 players in NBA history released by US media Bleacher Report has sparked heated discussions. Lakers legend Kobe Bryant ranks 11th, and this ranking has been publicly questioned by his former teammate and treble-winning partner O'Neal.

"Kobe ranked 11th? This is simply nonsense!" O'Neal did not hide his dissatisfaction. The list shows that the 10 people ranked in front of Kobe are Jordan, James, Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Bill Russell, O'Neal himself, Duncan, Larry Bird, Wilt Chamberlain and Curry, followed by Kobe are stars such as Olajuwon and Durant.

It is worth mentioning that O'Neal had a clear attitude towards Kobe's historical status. In 2023, he publicly stated that his best team in history included Kobe, Jordan, Magic Johnson, James and himself, which shows his recognition of this Lakers comrade.

As the golden partner who teamed up to win three championship rings, O'Neal's voice is not only a challenge to the authoritativeness of the list, but also reflects the deep bond between the two generations of Lakers legends.
