      Anyone who understands greatness has MJ and Kobe as their top 2 basketball players of all-time. Most people don't understand basketball. Even fewer people understand greatness. You measure a man by his mindset and mental toughness. MJ, Kobe, Bach, Mozart, Michelangelo, Thomas Edison, Benjamin Franklin, Frederick Douglass, Navy SEALS, special forces, David Goggins, David Blaine, Jerry Rice, Tiger Woods, Eminem, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Jeffrey Immelt.

Maybe it was nerves or just trying to make a joke for the sake of not crying like crazy in the beginning.

    3 years later, I still couldn't believe he's gone.
    Kobe's passing was one of the hardest things to cope. When I was just a teen living in China, Kobe was the first basketball player I've known. I would watch lakers game during the lunch break with my classmates and admired all his moves! I bought so many kobe's posters and signed his name in Chinese (lol). 10 years later, I moved to the states. My top checklist was to see laker's game in staples center. I still vividly remembered seeing Kobe playing on court. He nailed it in the 4th quarter and lakers won ! That was a dream come true moment of my life. I wanted to say thank you dear Kobe. You gave me strength and hope. Now i'm 35 and soon become a mother. I will teach my kid to play basketball and watch your games together. Lots of love.

But as I speak to you now her time is up, Render hand of favour with Anything you can afford or give to these motherless foundation (Godstime MOTHERLESS FOUNDATION) in kebbi state nigeria before 2DAYS with faith, as I Rise my hands towards heaven and pray for you they shall serve as point of contact wherever you are, you will receive double portion of grace to excel and total restoration of breakthrough in your life and in the life of your family. Ask for their acct details and help them call the MD in charge of the orphanage to get their details on (WhatsApp or call them now on +2348128751138) tell him I sent an you. For it is not by might nor by in power but of the spirit saith the lord (zechariah 4:6). You shall testify to the Glory of God in your life. God bless you....

This still hurts to this day, Kobe was an outstanding basketball player but most importantly, he was a great ambassador of the game. I was blessed to see him play live and witness his killer instinct and passion for the game. Those are moments I will never forget. I miss him like I knew him personally. That's how hard this one hit me. Rest in peace champ, I'm sure you're hitting that fade-away in heaven right now along with the other greats we've lost.

    Seeing MJ emotional really puts into perspective how serious and competitive he was while playing, and why the emotional flood would always break after winning a championship. His teammates literally did not think he was capable of these emotions until they saw it with the trophy in his hands. They thought he was a sociopath, someone without empathy and whose only emotion expressed is anger and frustration, and it turns out he’s this big empathetic teddy bear the whole time. Love it.

He cherished life no matter the position he was in. On the court, at home or in public it didn’t matter. He was one of few who chose to live while heartedly and put his fame aside. He realized something many in the fame industry dont and that is fame was his job not his identity. Rip Kobe.
