What a way to wake up god. I slept in because I don't get much sleep during the week. As I wake up I get a twitter notification, grab my phone, tap notification, see Woj tweet "Kobe Bryant among those dead" is all I see, it doesn't register so I go to look at other notifications... a second later I'm like "WHAAAAATT"... Still in complete and total shock omg

I am speechless. Sick to my stomach. When our heroes die, it really makes you feel your own mortality. 41 years young. And one of the best ever. Shows you how fragile life is....

Didn't like him, but this is terrible. A sad day for the NBA and basketball lovers everywhere. RIP, Kobe.

On ESPN now, too

 

[MVP]

Crazy how ESPN does not have anything on it... the first story on news there is Lebron passing Kobe on scoring list.

 

[Jazzta]

Wow, sad day for basketball. RIP Kobe, still can’t believe it, he was young man.
