    It's sad that this happened, but as a NBA fan this is absolutely devastating.

    The NBA circle is going to be shook.

    Oh, this awful. His family is so young. Kobe had a lot of life left in him, as well. My condolences.

    My friend just told me Kobe Bryant just died, I was like wtf?! This is crazy, so random, a helicopter crash. This week watched the interview with Kobe w/ Barnes & Stephen Jackson, sounded like he was really at peace, just enjoying time coaching and watching his girls grow up. He really seemed to balance family time with work. Awful news.

    Wtf dude this is unbelievable. I feel so sorry for his daughters. He was my favorite player after dream growing up. I had about 30 of his rookie cards. I even used to write Kobe in as my middle name on school papers. This is so ****ing sad.

    Great player. Great family man.
