Cuz it’s Kobe, we grew up with this guy or watched him grow up. He’s more than an icon… you see all those players just balling tears out. No matter if you rooted for him or against deep down you loved Kobe Bryant cuz he made you get up for games. RIP mamba you’ll always be missed
The fact that it hit me harder is cause my uncles and older cousins loved watching him play and they were a fan of his mentality, their love for the game just fell flat after this
Damn 3yrs later I’m sitting in the same spot I was when I heard the news. It’s tough not only Kobe left but also his daughter and seven others, 9 total it was a tragedy RIP all 😢
I found out at work at pizza hut, when i tell you nobody ordered nothing for about 2-3 hours, im serious. Some people got sent home cause it was dead fr . The whole world stopped literally. Even a food industry showed their respect fr 😭
We were playing in the park that time and one guy just said Kobe died its all in the news. Checked my phone and saw it. Never hear a ball bouncing on that court that time for like 20 minutes looking at our phone. We had no urge to play and just went home.
@@kamishiroyuu7375 yeah you’re right I guess news reporters NBA reporters Chinese fans Japanese fans American fans Canadian fans coaches from different teams players from different teams players playing in foreign countries. You’re right, not everyone I guess just everyone who watches sports which is at least 75% of the world
Of course it's sad, it's horrible what happened to them. The difference was Kobe was well known and really implanted himself as a great in the NBA. To many like myself he was our childhood hero. I can honestly say that if Gigi wasn't Kobe's daughter she probably wouldn't be given any attention either. That's just the reality, people idolized Kobe.
I mean people have been watching Kobe for years maybe their entire lives. It'd be obvious people care more about Kobe. No disrespect to the family its terrible what happened and no life is worth more than another. You don't see people talking about every person that dies of an accident or cancer (which happens every second).
Hit me and my mom hard af that day cuz the same day, I had to give up 2 little sister puppies cuz of allergies. I was in the hospital is was that bad. When I was on my bed waiting for the doctor to come with the diagnosis, I saw it on the tv. My mom cried so much man.
I was playing basketball at the ymca when all my friends and I found out. Some little kid ran on the court and told everyone we all thought he was lying until we checked our phones a few minutes later.
The moment I found out the news, I straight out cussing in the hospital elevator for 10 mins, played Kobe’s knucklehead episode driving home and stayed in my room the rest of the day
In the first 4 lines of his post Leflop says "I" or mentions himself 5 times. He goes on to mention himself over 20 times total. It is supposed to be a post about Kobe Bryant and he cant stop mentioning himself. That shows the type of person Lecry is. So sad people think this guy is the GOAT and put him before KOBE. This dude isnt a good guy at all.
There were not a lot of people’s death made my ears ring.. let alone a celebrity.. but Kobe was one of them.. not even a lakers fan, idk why, it hit me hard
This is still a terrible tragedy…devastating….I’m not hating on Kobe…but remember we have lost a LOT of our service men who have died in Helicopter crashes too…
Mannn, I was in California for a super smash brothers tournament, it was Sunday morning I believe we were out for brunch and they stopped taking orders, everyone had to clear out the Walmarts closed it was absolutely devastating.
this really is sad but i hate how just because kobe and his daughter are famous they say kobe, Gigi and 7 others. i hate how another's life is outweighed because their famous its sickening
Tell me how the hell did I manage to cry for days and go outside with a basketball and shoot 82 times at the hoop to honor him everyday while the self proclaimed goat (we know its Jordan and not him) cant even attend his funeral or show up at his memorial...he saw the man in person, he witnessed greatness, it just wasnt his greatness
Trolling. That 50 shot game at the end was the most he ever shot. Even in his 81 pt game, he only shot 46 times. Nobody has ever shot more than 63 times (Wilt, during his 100 pt game... he hit 36 of them).
Kobe got cancelled by the (())) and everyone hated him because of his involvement with a woman who anyone who has ever dealt with one knows can be deceiving and EVIL. RIP to a great one. I wish he were still alive today, if he was, he wouldn't be afraid to say his thoughts about how soft the league is today
