His Instagram had some nice pics to go with it. But I think that’s broken on here. Wiggins was even tougher to see. Kobe was big-brothering him from an early age. Obviously so many similarities.
I was looking through my archives last night after the game, and eerily stopped and looked at this. Like many, only associating it with LeBrons milestone at the time.

I never really got over the whole Colorado thing, but the news today hit me hard; what a horrible loss for his family and the game of basketball. RIP Kobe, his daughter, and everyone else on-board.

It has to be talked about, bc it can’t not be.
And, all of this is true: criminal charges were dropped. He settled a civil suit, where of course no fault is admitted. Out of the criminal and civil matters came bad stuff/stories about all parties.
It’s ok to be conflicted. It’s ok to criticize him for his worst moment.
I think Charles Pierce gets it right, though, who is quoted below. I posted earlier that kobe turned it around, and it’s pretty incredible the person off the court he became, most notably post-basketball. I think that Kobe and also Mamba Kobe are who everyone mourns today.
Kobe Bryant died on Sunday with one of the young women in his life, and how you will come to measure his life has to be judged by how deeply you believe that he corrected his grievous fault through the life he lived afterwards, and how deeply you believe that he corrected that fault, immediately and beautifully, and in midair.
