I don’t usually get too sad when a celebrity dies, but Kobe and his daughter’s death hit different

“You don’t have to be a basketball fan to feel this.”

I remember in 2008 when the lakers lose to celtics in the finals i was looking down holding my laker jersey as i exit the game, then kobe saw me and literally said "keep ya head up kid, we gettin next year i promise" something like that. Then the next year lakers actually won the championship. I will never forget that moment. 💜💛

He made millions of people cry, I was one of them 😔

I don’t think Kobe could ever imagine how much he meant to so many people

Not only we lost Kobe but his wife lost him and her daughter I can’t imagine how’s she’s feeling losing her first love and her flesh and blood I’m sorry Vanessa

Lord, I've never seen so many grown men crying!😢😢😢😢

When Kobe passed away I knew 2020 was going to be a bad year.

*Born* a legend. *Died* a legend.

You know the nba community is sad when Kawhi gets emotional RIP Kobe Bryant

its like what Vannesa said at the memorial: god knew they could not be apart so he took them both. rip mamba and mambacita!

Why am I back here again and torturing myself like this 😭

It’s hard to imagine how Kobe felt when he was going down looking at his daughter knowing he can’t protect her 🕊🕊fly high Kobe

"You don't even have to be a basketball fan to feel this" real talk

My heart still bleeds whenever I think of Kobe.. He is truly missed..

Seeing Kawhi in tears choked me up cause he’s always a stoic guy

A Boston Celtics announcer said "As a Boston Celtics fan, we didnt think Kobe could break our hearts any longer!" " We were wrong!" Wow!! 😪😪😪

Still yelling "KOBE" when I shoot. 🐍 He may be gone, but his legacy never will be. Rest In Peace KOBE & GIGI 🙏

Kobe’s passing here in California felt like a Great King had passed. People came from near and far of all race , religions, and culture to LA with flowers to the Staple Center. Truly a beautiful site to see , you did that KOBE. Rest now King your work has been done on Earth.

Still hurts. The Doc Rivers full interview always breaks me

This is the day when everyone is one with Kobe :(

2 months later & this still doesn’t feel real... Long Live Kobe and Gigi❤️🦄🙏🏽

who wouldn’t be cryin? That man is the whole reason why NBA came to life. Gianna was gonna Carry the legacy but she gone😔😔😰

It’s been 2 weeks since Kobe died but it still hurts a lot..I couldn’t even sleep the other night thinking about what happened to him..I feel so sad for his wife and daughters..

Damn he impacted my school yelling "kobe" for every shoot

"I just wanna go home and kiss my kids and wife, everything else is just irrelevant." - Marc Gasol Feel you 💔

This is one of those moments where you remember exactly where you were when you heard the news... rip to all of them

My cousin died in her sleep last Wednesday and her death hit me, much in the same way that Kobe's and the rest of the people who died did. I don't feel like I am coping. My heart is so heavy. I have known her nearly all my life and she left me at 51. I need to lean heavily on God for this one. Sleep in peace beloveds.

The "KOBE" shout will never feel the same. R.I.P to the legend, his daughter and the passengers

"YEET" is for power "KOBE" is for precision

This day, the earth stood still. It still doesn’t feel real. This is one of those moments where you know exactly what you were doing, where you were, and who you were with.

it really doesnt feel right that hes actually gone...

The only reason I ever got my homework done early was so I could watch the Lakers game with my dad. He was my childhood. He was the only reason I ever picked up a basketball. I’m so sorry. I’m so so sorry.

I feel much worse for his daughter, she was robbed of a life she wasnt allowed to live out.

Kobe isn't gone.... He's just one step ahead of us like always 🙏🏼

Damn Kawhi was even tearing up

He's passing feel like a family member 😔

Kobe is a good guy, thats why its so hard for everyone to accept his passing.

This still breaks my heart..

you know he was loved and truly respected when you see grown men breaking down. May Kobe RIP.

Rest In Peace 🕊 Kobe Bryant Gianna "Gigi" Bryant Alyssa Altobelli John Altobelli Keri Altobelli Christina Mauser Payton Chester Sarah Chester Ara Zobayan

The Fact That His Daughter Gigi Was With Him Hits Me Hard

Broke my heart my childhood watching Kobe and iverson play was lit

The wound is still so fresh. I think it always will be. There's just no getting around it. 💔

His death hurt but him and his daughter hit even more she was only 13...

Heroes come and go, but legends are forever R.I.P KOBE and GIGI 😢😢😢🙏🙏🙏

Doc Rivers interview will always break my heart 🙏🏼😢

Whenever I'm alone, I still cry...smh

When we shoot a basketball its no longer “KOBE” it’s “FOR KOBE”😔💔✊🏾. R.I.P Kobe Bryant (Ik someone eles say this.. but I’m just passing it along🕊)

*I'll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it's sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot.* - Kobe Bryant

I cried like a baby when Kobe passed and I still cry sometimes when I think about it til this day‼️ Love and miss you deeply Bean 🕊😇

I still can't believe that he's really gone. Kobe, we will never forget you 🐍🙏

“Hand down... man down... Mamba, there goes that man” 💔

Every 26th of January I'd be remembering two events; My father's birthday and the day a legend left this World of ours. RIP Kobe.

Almost two years later, this is still hard to believe. Still brings me to tears… Kobe, thank you for all the great memories….🥲

Never saw many people crying, man crying. Kobe was special, unique. I was a regular attend to Lakers game at the Forum and I will never forget his rookie year, how desperate he was to play and not getting much playing time from coach Del Harris. Eddie Jones was a people' favorite player at that time and he was a mentor for him. Still hurts to the core, unreal. RIP Kobe

"You don't even have to be a basketball fan to feel this." That described my day. Learned more about him today. Just sucks to lose someone like him

*Throws paper ball* “KOBE” it will never feel the same😞

Alot of people say big men don't cry..big men aren't supposed to cry..BUT...seeing ALL of the BIG MEN cry..Makes me a 6'9" BIG MAN CRY SO HARD!!! WE ARE ALL PEOPLE NO MATTER OUR SIZE......THIS HURTS SO DEEPLY! I PRAY FOR ALL OF THE FAMILY FRIENDS AND MILLIONS OF FANS AROUND THE WORLD!!!! RIP #MAMBA #MABACITA #KOBE #8 #24 #2

“ you don’t even have to be a basketball fan to feel this” that’s the realest! I have cried atleast twice a day about this since it happened. As a mother I can not imagine how Vanessa is.

I’m taking 2020 back to the store I don’t want this year anymore.

When I saw Kawhi almost cry it broke me because ever since he was a child he has been scared and probably hasn’t cried in quite a bit.

DOC is crying and they still have the freakin camera in his face 😥 give him some space and respect his sorrow!

Don't even know why I'm coming back to these videos known im going to cry i guess I still just can't believe it's real

“You don’t even have to be a basketball fan to feel this pain” never really watched basketball but everyone knows the name Kobe Bryant.. and that statement is more than true.. RIP Black Mamba

As a Celtics fan I never liked Kobe when he played against us, But I always had the ultimate respect for him and his game. Definition of a competitor is Kobe Bryant. What he has done on and off the court is nothing short of inspirational. The game of basketball moving forward will never be the same. It is like a giant hole has been left in the game of basketball. Words cannot express the emotions and feelings we all have today. Another terrible example of how fragile life truly is. My thoughts and prayers go out to all whom he has touched especially his friends and family. Not only have we lost the great Kobe Bryant but also his daughter Gigi. Gigi idolized her father and seemed to be on the way to carve her own path to become one of the greatest female athletes of our time. We now can never see where her journey went. We will never see Kobe give his hall of fame induction speech. His poor Wife lost her daughter and husband and His girls lost their father and sister. Also my condolences to the pilot and the other families aboard the helicopter. It seems so fucked up that the day after Lebron James passes him in career points that he leaves us. The next Lakers home game is going to be difficult one but a must watch. 2020 has been off to a heartbreaking and scary start. This is one of these days that we will all remember where we were when we heard the news. That feeling of your heart sinking and instantly thinking it cannot be. Never take life for granted. Thank you Kobe. MAY YOU BOTH REST IN PEACE.

i feel like 10 years from now there’s gonna be a video on youtube titled “where were you when Kobe and Gigi died?” and i’m gonna remember it like it was yesterday

Such a great man and his little girl my heart is broken 💔 for the families of this tragedy.

When we shoot. 2019- “Kobe” 2020-”for Kobe”

When kawhi leonard is even crying for him, you will realize how great that person is.

They should have let these boys grieve. I know Kobe would want them to play but they are human just like the rest of us! RIP KOBE MAMBA FOREVER💔💯

I believe Kobe and his daughter was there in spirit 🙏🏼💛

7:35...dude his reaction....when he said "Kobe?" "BRYANT?" i died inside 💔

I just can't imagine how kobe feels at that moment😪knowing that the helicopter is going down with them on board with his daughter😥it's really hard for him at that moment as a father💔

I will never forget this day. This was crazy

Watching kawhi eyes in tears just means how he meant for everyone... even robots cry 😢

It doesn’t even seem real 😔

The fact that I cried makes me feel better .. prayers up for Kobe and family also rest of the victims. God bless 🙏

Why am I here 😭😭😭RIP Kobe

Heroes get remembered but legends never die! Rest easy kobe 🙏

R - Return I - if P - possible Kobe Bryant we love u

As a fan for a long long time, when he died its like a relative died. He meant so much for other people, the whole damn world even. This day is devastating for all his fans and the NBA community. Rest in Peace, Kobe. *Mamba for life*

Wow april 2020 still crying about him🤦😢😢

The hard part is imagining him having to look his daughter in the eye and lie to her and tell her everything's gonna be ok when he knows they're not going to survive.

All these guys really looked up to him since they were young, truly heartbreaking.

When a man cries, just know he’s hurt from the depth of his soul. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

RIP KOBE AND GIANNA YOU WILL BE REMEMBER ♥️💯💔

Love u Kobe ..3 years 9 months later it still hurts ..

Pretty much none of us even KNEW Kobe and it still brings tears. Shows his impact on basketball and life.💔

Throwing things back then:KOBE Now:For kobe

Just seeing the Spurs crying and passing the towel down the bench breaks my heart every time. RIP Bean and Gigi ❤️

I can’t stop crying ... he was one of the G.O.A.T!!! We love ❤️ u Kobe!!!

RIP everyone in that crash, Kobe his daughter, her friend and her family, the pilot, this shit is so sad, to many people were impacted today, January 26 will never be the same

The first time I’ve truly cried in awhile The only thing I can do is shake my head right now REST IN PARADISE KOBE AND GIANNA

It’s okay to be a man and cry and be soft. This is my therapy session whenever I miss my idol. I’m from LA and I’m on my 30th so I grew up watching him and I played basketball because of him and after he died I couldn’t even play basketball. It hurt so much 😢

Kobe Bryant is more than legends RIP 😭😭 😭 KOBE BRYANT YOU ARE ALWAYS MY HEART,,,

I can’t wait to tell my kids the Legacy of Kobe Bryant Some grew up watching Jordan , A whole lot of us grew up with Kobe . Wish I could’ve met him .

I’m about to cry 😭 I feel bad for his wife and daughter’s

The memorable moments in NBA .. respect Kobe Bryant 💓❤️❤️❤️💖💞❣️💝
