Kobe Bryant Died!!!

OMG!!! FUCK!!!

Really?

Holy shit.

Please don't be mean or racist DL. This is shocking. Life can be over in a moment. Fuck.

I'm sorry but those environmentalists will say, well, he should have used a car, not a helicopter...

Who else was onboard?

I felt for him when he wanted a boy but his wife kept pushing out girls. he's got 4.

Just FYI so things don’t get lost.

I loved his beef.

Just stop the BS R5. No one is going to say he shouldn't have used a helicopter.

OP - the proper format is Kobe Bryant is Dead to Me. Check the other two threads for how to do it correctly

He was handsome. And a hard worker. This is 😢

Do you know that instead of driving, he flew copters to laker games, with tinted windows.

There are 5 people onboard!!! who else? His wife?

Tell me this is a hoax...

You sure? Those other threads weren't clear enough for me

no it's real, breaking on CNN right now.

crashed this morning 10 am CA time.

Calabasas CA.

5 people dead.

He is survived by his wife Vanessa and 4 daughters. RIP Kobe. The greatest.

He was 41 only.

love

Fiery crash. I usually like my Kobe rare but he was Well Done.

what was on his ipod?

Crash-the velvet underground

Crash into me-dave matthews band

Crash and burn--vanilla ice

How does TMZ get their information so fucking quickly? Or do they get it at the same time as everyone else, but just report it without confirmation?

he was so talented. My friend saw him party and drink at hotel bar until late at night, the next day, he lit up MSG for like 50 points or something ridiculous like that.

Nobody is perfect but he tried his best to change and was a great face for the NBA. I mean these days, there aren't that many legit NBA stars.

Many of these "stars" change teams like underwear...Kobe stayed with the lakers and got so many rings.

Biggest loss so far in 2020

R22, they have cops on their payroll most likely...

OMG, abc is saying that his daughters were onboard!!! is this real?

They are saying former NBA player RICK FOX was also onboard.

God, R25, I really hope that's not true. But with 5 onboard and coming from his home, it wouldn't be out of the question.

I know for many on DL, he was just a basketball player but having been a Lakers fan since the 1980's, I am in shock. LA is a huge, diverse city with all its troubles but was/in unified in our love for the Lakers and Kobe was the face of that love.

CNN is reporting that bikers saw the chopper was in distress and went down.

That was his personal helicopter.

They are saying at least one of them is his eldest daughter...Rick Fox is supposedly on board as well. they have to inform next of kin first before releasing info to public.

Is it the same helicopter as this?

[quote] CNN is reporting that bikers saw the chopper was in distress and went down.

Who did the bikers go down on?

People saw the helicopter in distress, I wonder if there is video...you know, the internet age...

[quote] How does TMZ get their information so fucking quickly?

From cops.

TMZ pays. They keep their sources private. Cops & hospital workers fall over themselves to be the first to call TMZ.

He wore 24 because MJ wore 23 and 24 is more than 23...

I pray it wasn’t his daughters.

Reportedly, he was going to his Mamba Academy in Thousand Oaks. If so, I can believe at least one of his daughters was with him. I think the oldest is a big fan and player. She would show up with him at a few games at the Staples Center.

He coached his girls' basketball team.

Davos is now and Big Time virus happens and started and then this. E.g. a very big, non-gang related, safeish space shooting, I think the one in Orlando or Las Vegas, happened during a Bilderberg conference, or something like the second most important 1% meeting, or a newer number one meeting. Bilderberg is too suspicious and known nowadays. Big time extinction events and tests and/or 0.001 % and A+++ list deaths seem to be happening often during such events.

Hope someone is with Lamar Odom right now. I fear he will be badly affected.

why couldn't an asshole pro sport person die instead of Kobe? Why couldn't it be OJ? or anyone of those scum NFL domestic abusers

Why couldn’t it be Tom BRADY?

He won an oscar too!

Yes. He won an Oscar in 2018.

TMZ is reporting that his oldest daughter was onboard...

She just turned 17 one week ago...

This is sad for his family and people who knew him. But I'll never understand people who get broken up and cry over a celebrity dying. Get a life.

Sources: Kobe Bryant was on his way to a travel basketball game with his daughter Gianna when the helicopter crashed. Those aboard the helicopter also included another player and parent.

Oh. sorry my mistake. not his eldest daughter, it was the 13 year old, Gianna.

That's him and his kid who died. he was coaching her team.

Everyone here in LA is freaking out and he's becoming a saint. Meanwhile, they've all forgotten he's a rapist.

Let's not lose sight of what's TRULY important here.

[quote][bold]Keep this same Kobe energy when trans women of color are killed for simply existing.[/bold]

Did they ever show pictures of his dick etc during the trial? Any description? Size meat?

Naked pictures of Harvey Whalestein will be shown in his trial in NYC

^^Don't nobody wanna see that.

He is not a rapist. Vanessa got a huge ring out of it though. My heart hurts about this. Kobe turned it around. They were a happy family and he loved his girls. Here he is with his 13 year old daughter.

She got more than a ring, I think she got 2 houses too. They already owned the properties but he transferred ownership to her name only.

Oh well, if she got a ring out of it and a couple of houses out of it, then it's ok that her daughter is dead. Right, trash at r54/r55?

R56, did you hurt yourself landing after that GIGANTIC leap?

[quote]There’s no words to express the pain Im going through with this tragedy

The same Shaq who dropped this classic?

[quote]I'm surprised Gap Playlist Troll hasn't stopped by to tell us when Crash Into You by Dave Matthews was on the GAP Playlist.

I don't currently have whichever playlist that is but hopefully it will make its way back to me soon.

However, "Crash" by Propellerheads was on the May 1999 GapKids In-Store Playlist.

"Crash Into June" by Game Theory is on the June 2005 Gap In-Store Playlist.

Beyoncé and Jay were close to him. I wonder if they are ok.

Beyonce will probably sing at the funeral.

Oh my gosh, I didn't even think about the funeral. Everyone in LA will be there.

Will Meghan make the funeral?

Sorry I’m late, guys.

Did I miss the Bronco chase?

Great comment from Bryan Greenberg.

@bryangreenberg: I’ve never seen another human being more focused, disciplined, and determined on achieving excellence than Kobe. Forever inspirational.

R64 Yes, she and Harry will be seated next to the Obamas.

He will probably get in Memoriam at the Oscars

Gasp!
