NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal did not hold back his criticism for a new ranking and its disrespect for Kobe Bryant.

Lakers great Shaquille O'Neal doesn't agree with how low the late Kobe Bryant was ranked on a major publication's list of the greatest NBA players.

Bryant ranks fourth in all-time NBA scoring (33,643 points) and his “ Mamba Mentality ” work ethic is still cited as a major influence on current athletes. He spent the first eight years of his career as Lakers teammates with O’Neal, with L.A. winning three NBA titles during that span.
