My word... this one hits pretty hard. It's a wonderful find/share, though.

I just want to send my condolences to the Bryant family and all of the Lakers fans around the world today. Hearing about Kobi was bad enough but to hear his daughter and eight other people were also lost is just hard to comprehend...may they all rest In peace.

Is that the daughter that just died or is that the oldest one?

Yep, that's her -- https://www.tmz.com/2020/01/26/kobe-bryant-killed-dead-helicopter-crash-in-calabasas/.

Good advice. If you're having a drink just use an uber. Things go bad and you're putting the same pain you're experiencing now on your family or others.

Appreciate the advice and I understand the need to remind people in this day and age. But, I've always been a responsible drinker. I'm not planning to go for a few hours. I'll be sober by then. Thanks for the concern. There's more reason to worry about Lamar Odom if you saw his IG. I hope he has the support he needs.

Sorry bro. I am in shock too.

But remember Kobe would want you to live on by making smart decisions and getting the most out of your life, just like he was!

Not saying you won't, but I'm just saying.

I'm going to remember Kobe by being more disciplined and working harder. I think that's what he would want!

I believe we will see him again. Hoops in heaven. Stay up!

That's why Kobe was so inspiring man. That singular laser focus and discipline. I always try to be the hardest worker in anything I do and live with the results. This isn't like work though. Give me a weight I'll lift it, give me a task I'll complete it. This is like being given an empty hole. What do I do with this? Everyone texting me, even people who don't follow basketball at all. People I haven't spoken to in years. They understand how much inspiration I took from Kobe. And I still can't text them back. It makes it more real. Posting on here anonymously just seems easier.

That's Gianna, who just died. The one who Kobe said would make the WNBA.

Yass. This is what i want to do.

Everyone post up your best Kobe memories.

I love when he didn't flinch when Matt Barnes acted like he was going to throw the ball in his face.

As a magic fan, i have memories of embarrassment when he dunked on Dwight in his rookie year. Poster. Babymaker in his face. LOL
I bet Dwight remembers that. He wanted him to help with his dunk contest this year too. smh

I also remember the battles between him and Raja Bell. I LOVED that. Raja was no star but he always brought it to Kobe. good times.

Damn man.

Instead of watching my team break the regular season wins record, I was watching Kobe ball out one last time in his final game dropping 60 points. Only he and what he was doing on the other channel could have got me to change it back and forth and then ultimately stay on his game instead of the Warriors.

What a tough day for that family and the entire basketball world.

I was playing fifa and was losing by two goals.

I just said to me "kobe wouldn't have quit" and i won 3-2 and pointed at the sky when i scored at 90th minutes.

I know this doesnt mean anything but that was my way to say him goodbye.

I am not a really sensitive guy, i lost my mother at 14 but damn that one hurts so bad i dont even know why it is hurting so much.

I always respected him as a player but the way post retirement Kobe carried himself impressed me even more. The way he was able to immediately put the ball down and re-emerge as an ambassador to the sport really impressed me. Especially with how fierce a competitor he was. We're seeing his impact as a human today as much as a player.

F*ck I hate this. RIP. Always diced up my Knicks. I wish this wasn't real

I'm so **** shook. Watching Kobe lifted me out of a really tough time in my life. If it wasn't for Kobe, I don't even know if I would be an NBA fan today.
