Truth. He was way more than just a basketball player. 

He was a highly intelligent man. Always positive, and easy to listen to.

    I generally respect you and your posts around here, and I have an idea of the things that are important to you in life. As such, I looked back at the thread when Notre Dame was on fire to see what you

Kobe hadn't been torched like this since Mother's Day 2011.

Must be your day to be a douchebag, eh?

So intelligent, so curious, so thirsty for knowledge. For those who didn't catch this (and it happened just a week or two ago), Kobe introduced himself to Luka Doncic in a classically Kobe manner. Doncic was playing in a game, about to take the ball for an inbounds pass, when he heard someone speaking Slovenian to him from the stands. He turned around and it was Kobe Bryant.

Love him or hate him, he was one of a kind, and those knew him will remember him as so much more than just a basketball player. He was a genuinely special person, flaws, mistakes and all. RIP Kobe.

The report on the radio I heard was all 4 daughters so that's at least better for his family. Terrible for the other families involved. 

The Sheriff's Department in the area of the crash will have a press conference in about an hour with more details. 

Local news is saying another parent and kid on plane 😭

He famously never really fit in in an NBA locker room. Phil Jackson wrote in his book that he had to basically force Kobe to talk about girls and cars to relate to his teammates, when all he wanted to talk about was art, history, philosophy, etc.

Thank God it wasn’t all his daughters. If I was his wife I wouldn’t want to go on living if that happened.

damn.  rip to one of the greatest to ever play the game. 

Local news is saying another parent and kid on helo 😭

first learned of it when logging onto Surly about 20 mins ago with the red banner.

 

So sad he won't be able to give a HOF speech.

 

Lakers next game is at home vs. the Clippers, on TNT.  Pregame is a must see.

There was some thick ass junk up there. Looks like the pilot was going VFR and had no clue where he was at.

Every death under the age 76 is too soon

Rick Fox is not dead. The Ex-Laker was not on board the helicopter that killed Kobe Bryant in Calabasas, California, on January 26.

Fox’s daughter confirmed to WEEI’s Courtney Fallon that the Canadian-born former NBA star was alive. NBA TV’s Jared Greenberg also tweeted that he had communicated with Fox via text in the aftermath of the crash that killed Kobe.

Bad visibility and helicopters are a bad mix.

It seems as if Gianna has been confirmed on the helicopter at minimum. They were headed to Mamba academy for practice 

My best friend works there and has for a few years.  The President of the company may have been on board.

Looks like they went straight into the mountain. Hope it was over in an instant and they had no idea what happened.

He'll be inducted at the very next opportunity - sucks that it will be posthumously.

Spurs and Raptors both taking 24 second violations in honor of Kobe.  Looks like Pop initiated it.  Fucking class, Pop.

that tailspin is insane. fuck.......

That’s not a tail spin. What that tweet is saying is that the helicopter was not flying on instruments and instead on visual. Basically they stopped because of weather and circled waiting for it to pass. Once the pilot felt comfortable they continued on, but then crashed.

Not Hitler’s.

Pretty bizarre that Bron just passed Kobe on the all time scorer list and sports talk radio has been discussing Kobe's career more the last day or so than anytime I can recently remember. And then this. RIP Mamba.

Looks more like they had zero visibility and were trying to figure out where to go.

Why is the school district he attended in Philly 20 years ago holding a press conference? Does his kids go there now?

This just sucks. Bad
