I’m sure it will be on YouTube soon. I am not watching now, but these are the best guys to give a tribute to Kobe. He touched these guys lives. Many other media outlets will say the same, but it doesn’t compare.

Gotta give you props SDV. I know we talk massive trash between you and the Lakers fans in here. You have been all class since Kobe died.

Major respect dude

They may replay it instead of the wrap up show after the Celtics game.

LINK Full tribute here. Vid cut Ernie off a bit at the end, but he was saying he hopes they never have to do one of these again.

I’ve been wanting to say this but couldn’t find the correct words. SDV goes at it with us Laker fans, but he’s been one of the best posters since this tragedy occurred. Complete class act

Dear Basketball,

From the moment I started rolling my dad’s tube socks
And shooting imaginary Game-winning shots
In the Great Western Forum

I knew one thing was real: I fell in love with you.

A love so deep I gave you my all —

From my mind & body To my spirit & soul.

As a six-year-old boy Deeply in love with you
I never saw the end of the tunnel.

I only saw myself Running out of one.

And so I ran. I ran up and down every court After every loose ball for you. You asked for my hustle I gave you my heart Because it came with so much more.

I played through the sweat and hurt
Not because challenge called me But because YOU called me.

I did everything for YOU Because that’s what you do When someone makes you feel as Alive as you’ve made me feel.

You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream And I’ll always love you for it.

But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer.
This season is all I have left to give.

My heart can take the pounding
My mind can handle the grind
But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.

And that’s OK.

I’m ready to let you go.

I want you to know now
So we both can savor every moment we have left together.

The good and the bad.

We have given each other All that we have.

And we both know, no matter what I do next I’ll always be that kid With the rolled up socks
Garbage can in the corner

:05 seconds on the clock Ball in my hands. 5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1

Love you always,


Kobe

I linked the earlier pre game tribute. The halftime portion just ended, but I'm sure it will be up soon.

Am I the only one who thinks Miami should be these colors full time forever?

we all blast each other that's just fans being fans

But when something like this happens especially to an legend like Kobe plus his 13yr old (I have a 15yr old so the feels got me) and the other victims plus to a city I love to hate we have to put that all aside

This was a real tragedy. And to think all he had to do was just take a car man. He probably would have got there in the same amount of time

The weather was terrible that morning here. I told my wife that first thing when I looked outside

I really hope they announce that his statue is already being constructed and will be put up immediately so we can celebrate

Seeing West so sad is just awful. Called my dad tonight after seeing that
We are all Lakers for the time being

I just watched the tribute of Kobe on YouTube from the link and that was beautiful. We couldn’t of had a better group of guys then the tnt inside the nba crew to talk about Kobe. It was great to hear from Dwayne, Reggie, and Jerry. For me, I needed this and I’m so glad I watched it. This gave me comfort hearing from the guys I love and respect and hearing how much Kobe meant to them. This was sad but a beautiful tribute to Kobe and it gave me peace.
