    Literally almost threw up at work thinking it was a nightmare, One of the main reasons I got into basketball and the GOAT Laker of all time.

    Absolutely devastating.

    ^ I'd get banned if I said what I wanted to say right now. As Khmrp said, this is not the time for conspiracy bs. We're mourning here so take this garbage elsewhere.

    I don’t even have words right now. Kobe and I are about the same age. Felt like we grew up at the same time.

    I’m beyond stunned and sad right now.

    RIP

    I feel so numb right now, like it's refusing to sink in. It's so sad to see someone so young and so vital, someone who means so much to each and everyone go so tragically. I feel for his daughters, losing a parent hurts you and never really goes away.

    Kobe, thank you for everything you have done, not just for the Lakers but for the whole of basketball. You are one of the greatest players of all time, and maybe now, finally all these haters will give you your just due. You were not perfect, as a player and as a man, but who among us is? But you rose above all it with your trademark hard work and indomitable will to succeed. You will always be an inspiration to me, and I guess to all of us here, and I will cherish all the titles, all the memories, all the moments that was coloured by your greatness. Rest in peace man, you will always be with us and we will never forget you and your legacy. Mamba out!
