[abubakr shaheed]

MAMBA DAY 8/24 should be a FEDERAL HOLIDAY

that’s my birthday. One of the many random connections I have with Kobe, and the crazy thing is everyone’s story feels the same we are all connected to him at different times in different ways for the same exact reason, you could never deny his greatness

 

[freeze]

I’m so glad the Sixers play tonight so I can get my focus back to hating or loving them based on the night.

I wish Lebby didn't add that sentence in about putting the weight of Lakers Nation on his shoulders

 

[keko jones]

I understand people calling for games to be canceled, for one, I was not. Playing is therapeutic for lots people.

Just like when you are angry, sad, depressed, etc and want to go to the gym destroy the weights.

Play on ... lets celebrate his life the only way he would.

 

[Lizakers]

I used to get in heated arguments with Kobe haters

I’d always tell em you don’t know what he’s like in real life, don’t judge him based on his persona you see on TV or on the court

turns out, based on the global outpouring and all the stories from people he touched , that he was truly beloved for the person and father he was.

I expected nothing less from him. Greatness requires it.

I honestly don’t care anymore. Looking to see how we do the tribute to Kobe tho

You know, I thought like that the day it happened, then I came to a realization. We can’t disrespect the game that he and his daughter and everyone else on that helicopter loved so much. It would be a disservice to them. And that’s why I continued to watch basketball after his death. But man, it’s tough

I’m still gonna watch but I don’t care for the outcome anymore. Having Joe as the bell ringer tonight would make the most sense but seems like too short notice

We’re playing the Warriors, so naturally D-Lo will drop 50 on us and keep it way closer than it needs to be.

 

[finessence]

I can’t even come in this thread, watch basketball, or NBA TV. I can’t even do it. This loss just hurts to much man. Might have to check out from this season

If someone can't play cuz he needs to grieve I understand, but otherwise I don't see the problem with continuing the games. Kobe wouldn't be offended at all if ppl continued to play, I bet he'd be confused why they wouldn't.
