RIP Kobe, Gianna, and the other passengers.

I hated Kobe, but it was rooted in respect. Gigi seemed to be following in his footsteps and was becoming quite the player in her own right. Just a tragedy.

Kobe broke the heart of Celtic fans one last time, while also breaking his fans hearts for the first time.

R.I.P.
Well put brother. It goes to show how sports and rivalries can quickly  become meaningless. I think Kyrie tried to make that point unsuccessfully in a post some time ago

This was quite frankly heartbreaking news to wake up to. I saw the headline on my phone and quite seriously didn't believe it - thought I was seeing things after thinking about Kobe so much yesterday because of LeBron.

What a horrible tragedy. I hope Kobe's family and all others involved can find some peace in a moment like this. Thoughts out especially to Laker fans - I can only imagine the hurt if someone like The Truth died randomly with a family member.

Celtics should do a 24 second violation, then the Hornets should do an 8 second violation.

I know the NBA isn't canceling games today, but an idea that I saw someone tweet is to shorten the season by 1 game for all teams.

Feels quite wrong to be watching a game

In honor of Kobe Bryant, Alvin Gentry and Brad Stevens have told us that both teams will take back to back 24 second shot clock violations to begin the game.

24 and 8 actually sounds like the better idea though.

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

He was one of those guys you expected to see out there as an old man talking about the game. Hell he just retired 4 years ago. Today is a sad day. RIP  :'(

He did possibly rape someone.  You just don't sweep that under the rug because he died.

Are you serious?

Totally classless and you should be ashamed of yourself.

For ME - I'd want someone to remember me at my BEST in life....in the end your life is a TOTAL screen shot of what you've done...accomplished.

You have a right to post what you did, granted.

I guess in TODAY's climate folks are less resigned to say crazy stuff.

In all fairness soccer fans are much worse than you ... especially the ones in poorer countries

Anyone remember these Marvel Comic mashups





The crazy thing is that the Infinity Guantlett Kobe Pic was in 2010 - several years before most of us even KNEW Thanos was going to be a Big Bad in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

But discuss it NOW? HERE?
