In the summer of 2003, future hall of famers Karl Malone and Gary Payton would join Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant in a last ditch attempt at the rings that had alluded both of their careers. The team featured a combined 38 All-Star Appearances and a combined 10 NBA Finals appearances. 4 of the NBA's 75 Greatest Players, all sharing one court, with the goal of winning a championship. To this point, the duo of Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant had led the Los Angeles Lakers to 3 NBA Championships, accomplishing the rare three-peat from 2000-2003. It seemed like they were destined to continue the dynasty...until the fued between the team's two stars reached irreparable levels. This is the story of not only the failure of the 2004 Lakers, but a deep dive into the downfall of the early 2000's Lakers Dynasty. Timestamps: 0:00 Introducing the Lakers 2:23
