Kobe Bryant - Dead in helicopter crash

Recommended Posts

Damn man. I saw this a few minutes ago and been talking with my buddies about it. Has it been confirmed by anyone but TMZ? Sad to say, they aren’t the Best at being honest

Variety confirming it.  They says officials have confirmed.

Wow.  That's crazy, and sad.  Lebron passed Kobe on the NBA all time scoring list last night.   What timing.

Did TMZ break first with Michael Jackson's death?

Yea I saw that others are reporting and confirming it now. Someone had mentioned TMZ Twitter was hacked again which was why I questioned it at first. We lost a focking legend today RIP

One article states that he used helicopters regularly to avoid traffic.

Well documented.  He used to commute to home Lakers game when he was a player via helicopter.

I heard that and that reporter is mistaken. No one is saying that. I can guarantee you that it wasn’t his 4 daughters. Kobe, pilot and 3 others were supposedly killed.

Glad he spent time with family while retired. So unfortunate. Geez, you never know when it's your time. I wonder who else was on board? So sorry for his family.

A lot of people are stupid, too.

You got that right. Which is why I’m always hesitant to trust the news. Literally had a reporter say that during the cut from the pro bowl that his daughters were on board. So either they were or news focked up really bad (which I don’t doubt nowadays). Just wish they would focking clarify it

That reporter was an idiot. He was in his car heading to the site, so he knew nothing

Man there’s too many conflicting reports out right now. This is why I hate the news “must be first to report! I don’t care if it’s inaccurate! We need to be first and trending on Twitter!”. I’ve heard multiple things, including that Kobe is a licensed pilot and was flying the copter himself while his 4 daughters were on board

Dude could flat out score the basketball. Hate the Lakers but respected Kobe's game. Throwback to the previous (better) era in the NBA before everyone was friends with everyone else

Now Rick Fox was supposedly onboard 

Spoke too soon. His daughter said he wasn’t onboard. Now ABC is confirming that Kobe’s daughters weren’t onboard. This is why I hate the media. If you think the media wouldn’t lie to you then take this as a lesson

I'm no Lakers fan, but Kobe was always one of my favorites.  One of the few class acts in the NBA.

Kobe is/was known as being a complete azzwhole and he is/was very far from being a "class act". 

Great, great player though.  RIP
