Kobe and Gigi Bryant Memorial Thread (RIP)

[mvp_status]

NY Times reporting all 9 bodies were recovered from the site.

At least the families will be able to give their loved ones the sendoffs they deserve

People trying to bully this dude into giving up #24

Any of those so-called tribute articles start talking Colorado this Colorado that after a brief intro, thinking they slick, I'm closing that shyt and saying fukk both the writer & the company behind it. fukk Zack Love or whatever's that dude called and fukk ESPN. They didn't have any good black writers to pen the front page article about Kobe? Instead they give it to this generic analyti-Cac who never played basketball a day in his nerd life Fake love, nothing else

Those people are complete idiots. Kobe would be embarrassed by such behavior

Me too man. I forced myself to watch all the sports talk shows just to try and process all this..but as soon as sportscenter started showing the highlights from the Mavs game I completely lost it. Might be a while before I can sit through a game

That's exactly what happened to me..

And in one of the compilations/tributes I saw had the puff daddy missing you song in the background..tears were flowing man..eyes red..sniffing..nikias was really crying smh

This and the nip death has hit me to the point where I'm like what the fukk am I doing I never met these guys..I dunno man it just hit different and I'm not affraid to have emotions

Just got back from LA Live. The energy there was so peaceful and somber. Will post pics later.

What’s affecting me more than a lot of these Kobe tribute videos is the simple title of this thread.

I come on this site and I refuse to believe I’m reading “Kobe Bryant and Daughter Gigi Have Passed Away..” It ruins my mood every time.

I will say that I will never look weirdly at someone who is upset over a celebrity death again because you really don’t know what impact that person had on them.

Went to the WNBA all star game last year. I watched them (Kobe & Gigi)more than the game lol. I was surprised they stayed til the end of the game (they left with 2 minutes left)
Every celebrity in that bytch walked over to shake his hand and take a picture.

 

[Carlton Banks]

Damn I ain't know Rachel Nichols was hated like that on here

I like her show. What she do or did?

 

[Brock Landers]

Still feels surreal, every few hours I'll randomly remember that he's gone Haven't felt like this since MJ passed away

Damn hope we’ll be able to cop
