      At the very least, we Los Angeles citizens know that he knew we loved him. What so often happens with death is that people feel guilty that someone wasn't appreciated while they were alive. Kobe is a hero in LA and he had to have known that because we were loud, stupid and obnoxious about it.

      Same here.
      Watched MJ and Kobe a lot.
      Even when they were battling each other, I did not feel any animosity towards Kobe for trying to beat/emulate MJ.
      When younger guys was trying to go at Kobe... I find them lacking in a certain mindset. You can just see with their body mannerisms and facial expressions.
      Conclusion that MJ and Kobe are peas in a pod.

I went to watch them play the spurs every season, Kobe saved the day many times against them. I miss that guy, I wanted to see how successful he was going to be as a coach. He was a great father, and became a great husband.

I was never a big sports fan, but after that episode I saw him on TV like in the news or somewhere, and whenever he appeared on the screen, I got happy. I don't know why, but this man had a talent of making people smile by just existing, just showing up. Just by seeing him. When the news broke of his passing, I hoped so much that it was untrue. I was in shock to find out that it was true and it didn't only take him, but other innocent people, including his daughter. I still smile when I see him. He was such a great guy. He is missed. And will forever be missed, loved and remembered. He's taking care of his big girl up there ❤

      Any of you brainlets ever think they disliked it because they disliked hearing it? Disliked the notion someone they admired died? Maybe they disliked the fact they keep hearing about it and can't get over it because they genuinely cared about what Kobe did? There is a litany of reasons I can list, and the majority would make sense on an emotional level.
