It's sad but alot of people just wanna bring up the beef they had from the past. But as the years went by you can tell they got over the squabbles and moved on. They truly loved each other
And what will praying do? Other than waste my own time I could be doing good things for others??? I dont think it's very nice to invoke fairy tales when people die. It's kind of insulting in fact. I thought you liked the man...
One of the coolest things a few years back was the NBA 2K commercial Shaq and Kobe did that ribbed on their beef. That beef was real, but I was glad they could come to a point where they could laugh together. I wish that would've continued.
ruclips.net/video/fRQdqA2dKkk/видео.html I want to dedicate this song to KOBE. Rise In Power 🐉☯️🐉🇮🇹🇺🇸👼🏾🖖 Not much more needs to be said your body of work will forever speak for itself until the sun explodes.
Morris that exactly my thoughts. Used to seeing him with that smile of his doing some random dance, clowning, dressing up... just enjoying life period. This was hard to see him like this.
@@afweath05 I don't know if you watch wrestling, but I have seen the Big Show break down and cry on several occasions and this just reminded me of that. It was just so sad to see him break down like that when he is such a tough guy😢
I'm pretty sure Shaq wouldve liked to talk to Kobe before he passed but Kobe knew how much Shaq really loved and respected him so hope shaq doesnt beat himself up
Kobe reached out to Shaq through that text to Shareef earlier that morning. I think the universe told Kobe he had to reach out to someone important, albeit indrectly, before he got on that helicopter. I feel like Kobe was able to say his final goodbye to Shaq through Shaq's son. His text was "you good bro?"
If he's so close to him how come he didn't speak to him for almost 4 years? Shaq - "The last time I spoke to him was when he scored 60." (Edit: he acknowledged the next night that he mis-spoked and that he had spoken to him once during he last 4 years in 2018)
@@PerryCuda Cause they still had their issues. But just like brothers, you're still brothers at the end of the day. That would have never changed. Thats why Shaq was comparing it to his relationship with Chuck later on in the discussions. Nothing but respect for eachother when it's all said and done.
@@simpleysims In that case Shaq is probably mourning something more than just Kobe, the regret of not keeping in touch with a brother and letting pettiness get in the way of friendship.
Same as soon as I saw him start to stumble a bit I lost it, may your would rest in peace Kobe as well as your daughter and everyone else on that heli. Stay strong everyone be safe. You never know when life is going to take you. Neve forget to say I love you even if it doesn't feel right. I learned that the hard way 😭😰
His whole life is coming down on him And he has to talk about it to the world just imagine how hard that is for him. He isnt even given a chance to grieve in peace. He needs to express all of this on the air for the whole world to see
i'd love to see multiple legends go up and talk to him, but just noting that Kobe wanted Phil Jackson and MJ to walk him up. I'll imagine i'll be more than that now, and rightfully so.
Jerry West, Shaquille O’Neal, Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley, Dwyane Wade and Reggie Miller. Absolutely tremendous, riveting, raw and real. Everyone associated with NBAonTNT should be proud.
Shaq was always been the strongest person I have ever seen. Watching him so hurt kills me. The man has a heart 3 times the size of his body. I hope he gets some time to grieve before something else happens.
What I love about Shaq is that he loves his brothers (NBA/basketball/TNT colleagues.) Even though he and Charles Barkley have fought so much on TV, I know he loves CB. Shaq does have a huge heart.
@@borismuller86 that's exactly how I feel about Shaq too.... he's a big, huggable uncle, and my heart is broken for him. I grew up watching him, and I feel terrible for his pain right now.

These men grew up together as athletes, fathers, husbands, and men, period. His teammates keep referring to Kobe as their younger or older brother. That speaks volumes of the magnitude of his loss.
Tom Kim Well of course, that’s how mourning works. Many days will pass, and Shaq will get back to how he used to be. He’ll always have a soft spot for Kobe though.
Shaq lost his sister in 2019 and now he's lost kobe Bryant who was not only a team mate but like a brother to him shaq is dealing with a lot of grief from two different people and their passings
That's called grief, it has several stages the first being denial that which he felt when he was working out and his son showed him the message about the report of his accident.

trend tneras I don’t think he’s full of pride he’s just full lol he’s a big teddy bear, in a great way and humble way. I wouldn’t change a thing with Shaq if I could
@@SethMacLeod95 dude he is funny but he is full of pride. He always admitted it ,and as a fan iwitnessed his charactercteristic. He is alpha guy, they don't usually show a soft side to a camera or to anyone. They hated to be seen as weak that's why they are sensitive if they hear things they don't like, meaning their pride was hurt in will get angry.He just broke down w/out realizing it and he don't care
trend tneras that’s fair. I got to see him come to my college at North Dakota state university 2 years ago, and I just got the impression he really is a good guy at heart which is what matters. I mean he is a legend and we all have an ego to some degree.
@Jiggy Thanos Nothing is more or less, they're a family I'm sure they are all hurt equally. To me it's kinda of disrespectful to say who's hurt more or less as if it really matters, they are a loving family and I know they all are feeling really emotional with this tragedy along with the others
Even worse, TMZ reported it before she was even notified. So she had to get 100s of calls about Kobe, then obviously deny them and be angry and confused and scared. THEN she gets the confirmation.. Just sad man... tragic all around to everyone who died in that crash.
That’s the most sincere and heartfelt speech I have ever seen. My condolences go to you brother for losing ur young brother. Stay strong and ur message will live with me for ever.
I lost my Mom to ovarian cancer coming up on 5 years this February. That same day, after I held her as she left this world, I had to put both of my dogs down and held them as well as they passed on. Since then I have lost an Uncle, Grandpa, a Cat that was given to us to help grieve and a dog we rescued. Since the end of 2018 until now I have lost three more family members. I woke up in recovery from shoulder surgery 11/8/18 to my Dad telling me my Grandma had passed to Alzheimer's. In June of 2019 we returned home from an annual golf tournament to my other Grandma passing from Alzheimer's. Shortly after my Aunt would die. We all suffer loss at one point or another and in all different ways. It's up to us to carry on their legacies and remember all the times we had together. That is how we keep their spirit alive. My prayers go out to you all who suffer with loss and who miss those who have moved on. It's a pain that never goes away or lessens, you only get stronger at carrying it. Godspeed, everyone.
BlazerDuck07 I am so sorry you have experienced such sorrow and grief. I lost my father to brain cancer in 2018 and I felt like killing myself. My father was my entire life. I’m so sorry death has visited you so cruelly. Please take care of yourself, brother. God be with you.
In all the years I've watched Shaq on this show, I've never seen him more sadder. This really crushed him and I don't blame him. It's okay to cry about this Shaq and Kobe forever RIP to Kobe his daughter, Gigi and the other 7 people that were on board. You will all be missed
@@lord_cobi you have no idea about the complexities of our existence. Energy can't be created or destroyed only transformed. Your soul is very much real
I havent even pressed play. I cant watch this. I hope any and everyone reading this comment finds some sort of comfort during this tough time. Much love to everybody reading this. Enjoy and cherish life to the fullest and may you accomplish everything you set out to achieve. Sky is the limit. My prayers to you all, Kobe’s family and the families of the other victims. Peace and Love Rip Mamba Rip Gigi 24/8 forever
RIP Kobe Bryant and Gianna "Gigi" Bryant. Still doesnt feel real man Also RIP to John Altobelli, Keri Altobelli, Alyssa Altobelli, Sarah Chester, Payton Chester, Christina Mauser, and the pilot Ara Zobayan.
@ it's not that no one cares about them, it's just that we don't know them. Yesterday was the first time I ever heard about them. We dont mean disrepect.
What happens when we die? "Those that love us, will miss us" - Keanu Reeves I don't know why, but the simplicity of that answer gives me some degree of comfort and I hope someone else finds comfort in it as well. In a life filled with uncertainty, this is one thing we know for sure.
I suddenly lost my father almost 3 years ago, the day before I was set to graduate High School. I was 18. When you experience a major loss like that, you get this feeling like “well at least I’m ready for anything now, if I can handle this I can get through anything” I’ve experienced losses since that day, but Kobe was the first one to deliver a similar since of shock that I felt when my father died. I can relate to a lot of what Shaq is feeling, and I have nothing but respect for what he had to say in this video. A lot of people feel that way inside, but it is very hard to put into words the way he did. The sad reality of loss is that you never “get over it”. You just learn to live with it. And it sure will take some time. From a diehard Dallas sports fan, I will always honor you, Kobe. Rest In Peace, MAMBA AND GIANNA BRYANT💜💛
Respect brother! Sorry for your loss and I’m so glad to see you’ve seen the positives. You are a strong courageous person! Keep it that way, blessings 🙏🏾
Seeing Shaq, someone who’s always laughing, smiling and in a good mood, seeing him cry really hits me hard😓😭 Rest In Peace Kobe, Gianna, and the 7 other people killed in the crash💛💜 Good lord grant them eternal piece🙏🏼
Who were the other 7 people. Just from an interesting perspective, do anyone really know who they were, we all know the famous guy Kobe and his daughter died but what about the others?
I grew up wanting to be like Kobe I was 12 when I started following him and Eddie Jones but ultimately Followed Kobe ever since. I’m going to miss him. I’m 36 years now. How time flies man
36 here too man. I live in NJ but I was raised in Los Angeles, been a Lakers fan ever since a child. Watching Magic Johnson play and all them back then. Moved to NJ and said to myself, I will always be a Lakers fan. Then came Kobe and been a fan of him since. I only got to see him play Live twice. Most memorable of them was game 3 of the NBA Finals between the Lakers and the Nets when the Nets were still in Jersey. I always wanted to take a vacation to Los Angeles (have never been back after moving as a child) to watch Kobe play 1 last time at the Staples Center before he retired, sadly I never got the chance. RIP Kobe
This is the absolute best crew in sports. They are tight, they support eachother, they are genuinely a unit. When Ernie lost his son, it was the same way. The guys pulled together and supported him too. I don’t even really watch sports, I watch these guys though.
@@marcuscape3301 he just wanna be a internet troll. A lot of these people are showing up since Kobe passed away. Don't even give them attention, that's the only reason they're doing it
I adore Shaq, for his huge heart, his personality and being so humble. I'm hugging you from here Shaq. I'm praying for you and I know I'm a no one, but please PLEASE know we care about you. You are a great man and you had a great brotherhood with Kobe. I also lost some key people in my life, left me hollow. Mad at the world for going on with their life without them. I totally understand how something so simple like sleep is so hard. How the quiet seems so loud. Love you Mr. O'Neil
Yeah he will forever have a different perspective on life.. Kobe is dead. Nothing will ever change that. But maybe this will be a eye opening for those who take life for granted. "An eye opening revelation for many others who think they are invincible. "
I can't hold the tears in after hearing him speak man. When he started talking about Joking around at Kobes Hall of Fame induction I can't even begin to understand.
Seeing Shaq like this, is one of the most hardest thing ever. It breaks my heart and soul over it all. 😭 RIP Kobe, Gigi & the other family members and pilot
This is probably the most tragic moment in sports history, I always love watching Shaq on TNT. I’m gonna take his advice to heart about spending more time and talking to the people we love more. I think we all could do that more.
The tears and words showed the love he had for Kobe. They will be forever tied to each other. Much respect to Kobe's family, Shaq and the other lives that were lost that day.
Just imagine if we can hear Kobe's acceptance speech into the hall of fame... RIP to both Kobe and Gianna. May my thoughts, prayers, and condolences go out to all of the Bryant family, and all those who lost their loved ones in that helicopter crash. 😔🙏😭
Shaq has been through a lot & has had some tough losses this man is 7'1 325 crying this goes to show you that you're never to tough or big to let out your emotions 💪💯🙏
The raw emotion you can seriously feel coming from this man. Just the fact a man like that was in his life was a blessing and should try to be grateful he had him. #RIPKOBE
It’s absolutely heart breaking to see Shaq in such pain. It’s easy to say these guys have perfect lives when in reality they suffer the same pains that we all do. I hope he can patch himself back together and continue trucking. Godspeed, Shaq.
I couldn't hold back the tears when Shaq started crying. So much pain in his eyes, so much sadness in his voice. I've never seen anyone more depressed than Shaq today. 😭😭😭
Man when Shaq cried and choked up I felt in my chest cuz I loss loved one's a Father last April outta no where. And that still hurts didn't know this man but man he feels like my brother like I lost a brother. Condolences to his family and extended family and the families that this tragic accident has effected.
"What you've done for me is far greater than anything I've done for you. ... My love for this city, this team and for each of you will never fade. Thank you for this incredible journey." KOBE BRYANT
This testimonial about Kobe straight from Shaq hit me the hardest....man Love was deep on that Laker team, with the fans, with the world I have searched all player reactions to see the love they had for him...waiting for Glenn Rice, Pau Gasol, Phil Jackson
I think he should take some time off and grieve with his family. Hold them close Shaq! Kobe along with Gianna and the 7 others are up in the Heavens! Their memeories will live on always!
Nothing comes for free with that kind of lifestyle and money. Shaq is crying because he knows the truth of the game. But still sad, only God Jehovah can judge us!
SparkyWatts14 it was just an unfortunate accident, Kobe was a wholesome guy who made it successful for himself & family, put some respect under his name.
I can't remember the last time I cried because it's been so long. Shaq's words touched my heart and I felt like all the numbness i felt before just rushed over my body and I was able to feel his pain and mine.
Praying for you Shaq... you’re a good man, with a blessed heart, a blessed job, with blessed friends.. never forget the many blessings you have... never
I can’t stop crying 😢 we must mourn, cry do what we have to do but move on in our own way but move on with life. My deepest sympathies for the families. We must all as fans share our love towards each other and respect to honor Kobe legacy. 💜💛💜💛
@kih that's just about the stupidest comment you could of wrote, not because it's the most horrible thing ever but because I can tell it's not a troll comment.. your lack of empathy is truly worrisome..
Man it's tough seeing guys you consider really strong crying 😔 I never seen ice cube cry, Tracy mcgrady, Shaq, Jerry West, kawhi etc you never see these guys show emotion
@@EricMartinSmithOfficial Nah man thats the completely wrong approach. If he retires now, than he has just more time and space to isolate himself and get in serious trouble like addiction, depression etc. Kenny, Charles and Ernie are his friends. Its good for him to stay together with them. maybe he needs a brake for therapy but no retirement.
@@jhill17 Oh yeah, he can definitely overcome his sister's death as well as Kobe and Gianna's death. But I hope he knows he doesn't have to overcome this alone.
On his podcast he said he hasn’t eat or slept since Kobe’s passing. He’s just been watching highlights of him and Kobe. Y’all pray for this man.
It's sad but alot of people just wanna bring up the beef they had from the past. But as the years went by you can tell they got over the squabbles and moved on. They truly loved each other
I didn't know he had a podcast. What is the name of it?

"I don't talk to you guys as much as I need to" - takes a lot to admit that.

They're family...

Shaq a guy full with pride broke down after a close one died. That's real love. Rest in peace GOAT
trend tneras I don’t think he’s full of pride he’s just full lol he’s a big teddy bear, in a great way and humble way. I wouldn’t change a thing with Shaq if I could
@@SethMacLeod95 dude he is funny but he is full of pride. He always admitted it ,and as a fan iwitnessed his charactercteristic. He is alpha guy, they don't usually show a soft side to a camera or to anyone. They hated to be seen as weak that's why they are sensitive if they hear things they don't like, meaning their pride was hurt in will get angry.He just broke down w/out realizing it and he don't care
trend tneras that’s fair. I got to see him come to my college at North Dakota state university 2 years ago, and I just got the impression he really is a good guy at heart which is what matters. I mean he is a legend and we all have an ego to some degree.
That part about “reaching out” is what got me tearing up again. I can’t even imagine the pain that Vanessa is going through right now
@Jiggy Thanos Nothing is more or less, they're a family I'm sure they are all hurt equally. To me it's kinda of disrespectful to say who's hurt more or less as if it really matters, they are a loving family and I know they all are feeling really emotional with this tragedy along with the others
Jiggy Thanos that’s extremely irrelevant and insensitive.
Even worse, TMZ reported it before she was even notified. So she had to get 100s of calls about Kobe, then obviously deny them and be angry and confused and scared. THEN she gets the confirmation.. Just sad man... tragic all around to everyone who died in that crash.
. She loss a child too.,🙇🏿♀️
Vanessa might have to get a job, thats a disgrace to that family losing all that revenue
One of the biggest, strongest men on this planet and his heart is breaking like the rest of us. 🥺
Namrepus Prime he had a special kind of a bond with Kobe no one else had though, he’s in pain rn, god bless him
Calm down fan girls
Redrum god bless you
That’s the most sincere and heartfelt speech I have ever seen. My condolences go to you brother for losing ur young brother. Stay strong and ur message will live with me for ever.

@@kostasz7z primitive minds resonate with discomfort and anger
I lost my Mom to ovarian cancer coming up on 5 years this February. That same day, after I held her as she left this world, I had to put both of my dogs down and held them as well as they passed on. Since then I have lost an Uncle, Grandpa, a Cat that was given to us to help grieve and a dog we rescued. Since the end of 2018 until now I have lost three more family members. I woke up in recovery from shoulder surgery 11/8/18 to my Dad telling me my Grandma had passed to Alzheimer's. In June of 2019 we returned home from an annual golf tournament to my other Grandma passing from Alzheimer's. Shortly after my Aunt would die. We all suffer loss at one point or another and in all different ways. It's up to us to carry on their legacies and remember all the times we had together. That is how we keep their spirit alive. My prayers go out to you all who suffer with loss and who miss those who have moved on. It's a pain that never goes away or lessens, you only get stronger at carrying it. Godspeed, everyone.
BlazerDuck07 I am so sorry you have experienced such sorrow and grief. I lost my father to brain cancer in 2018 and I felt like killing myself. My father was my entire life.
I’m so sorry death has visited you so cruelly. Please take care of yourself, brother. God be with you.
🙏
BlazerDuck07 I’m sorry for your losses.
solitairedoll I’m sorry for the loss of your dad
I’m praying that God will continue to be with you for all of those losses... wow!
Shaq mentioned something important. Take the time too keep in touch with those you love no matter how busy you are. Lesson for us all.
Hurts me to see Shaq hurting right now. We all feel the same. The Entire city of L.A. is crying with you, Shaq
Rest In Power, Kobe

Yes but remember Shaq hated Kobe was getting all of the attention.
Shaq and Kobe was the dynamic duo, I knew this would hurt him deeply.
This hurts bad bro - ruclips.net/video/_rTQfy6u_Fk/видео.html
In all the years I've watched Shaq on this show, I've never seen him more sadder. This really crushed him and I don't blame him. It's okay to cry about this
Shaq and Kobe forever
RIP to Kobe his daughter, Gigi and the other 7 people that were on board. You will all be missed

Most heart felt thing I've ever heard. Shaq said it like it is. "I don't talk to you guys as much as I should". "I'm gonna do a better job".
there's something riveting watching a giant man crying his heart out. *"hold on i ain't finished"*
repsect. thats being a man right there. speaking honestly and passionately from the heart.
Seeing Shaq crying really broke my heart 😥
It really did, he's the type of person that makes people smile when they are down. He's human though himself, poor guy.
Guys I’m crying hardcore man. When Shaq cried I felt it. I felt what we are all feeling. I don’t even know y’all but I love y’all. Spread the love ❤️
Alec Ferguson love right back.
Love. Be safe today and everyday.
Much love everyone
Ditto ✊🏾
RIP Kobe Bryant and Gianna "Gigi" Bryant.
Still doesnt feel real man
Also RIP to John Altobelli, Keri Altobelli, Alyssa Altobelli, Sarah Chester, Payton Chester, Christina Mauser, and the pilot Ara Zobayan.
And the 7 others
@@lord_cobi We care. Because we love basketball. Rich or not, these people endeared basketball love to our generation.
Man it does not. And people keep saying what about the others that lost their lives. We didnt know them like we knew Kobe. So chill.
@ it's not that no one cares about them, it's just that we don't know them. Yesterday was the first time I ever heard about them. We dont mean disrepect.
Facts a dream
It hit home with Shaq, that pain is deep... Rip kobe
IKE LOVE ...that's his baby brother. They been through so much. RIP MAMBA

True words my friend love and peace is the only way!
I suddenly lost my father almost 3 years ago, the day before I was set to graduate High School. I was 18. When you experience a major loss like that, you get this feeling like “well at least I’m ready for anything now, if I can handle this I can get through anything” I’ve experienced losses since that day, but Kobe was the first one to deliver a similar since of shock that I felt when my father died. I can relate to a lot of what Shaq is feeling, and I have nothing but respect for what he had to say in this video. A lot of people feel that way inside, but it is very hard to put into words the way he did. The sad reality of loss is that you never “get over it”. You just learn to live with it. And it sure will take some time. From a diehard Dallas sports fan, I will always honor you, Kobe. Rest In Peace, MAMBA AND GIANNA BRYANT💜💛
Lol
Mad respect bro✊
Respect! Your father would be proud of how strong you became mentally, got that mamba mentality
The Mavericks retired #24.
Respect brother! Sorry for your loss and I’m so glad to see you’ve seen the positives. You are a strong courageous person! Keep it that way, blessings 🙏🏾
Seeing Shaq, someone who’s always laughing, smiling and in a good mood, seeing him cry really hits me hard😓😭
Rest In Peace Kobe, Gianna, and the 7 other people killed in the crash💛💜
Good lord grant them eternal piece🙏🏼

I grew up wanting to be like Kobe I was 12 when I started following him and Eddie Jones but ultimately Followed Kobe ever since. I’m going to miss him. I’m 36 years now. How time flies man
Same. Spurs fan for life, but Kobe always made me feel better that Lakers beat my team numerous times coz he was my fave SG.
Me too...37 here followed his career as a rookie since he began his career in 1996..
Time flies man..
If only time could go just a little bit back so that we could change our decisions..
Followed eddie too
36 here too man. I live in NJ but I was raised in Los Angeles, been a Lakers fan ever since a child. Watching Magic Johnson play and all them back then. Moved to NJ and said to myself, I will always be a Lakers fan. Then came Kobe and been a fan of him since. I only got to see him play Live twice. Most memorable of them was game 3 of the NBA Finals between the Lakers and the Nets when the Nets were still in Jersey. I always wanted to take a vacation to Los Angeles (have never been back after moving as a child) to watch Kobe play 1 last time at the Staples Center before he retired, sadly I never got the chance. RIP Kobe
Shaq and Jerry West got me in my feels 😢 I wish I could give them a hug thru my screen
T-Mac as well 😥
Just want to give him a hug. Watching someone hurt like that is heartbreaking
I lost it when he started talking about not being able to joke with Kobe at his HOF ceremony...

This is the absolute best crew in sports. They are tight, they support eachother, they are genuinely a unit. When Ernie lost his son, it was the same way. The guys pulled together and supported him too. I don’t even really watch sports, I watch these guys though.
My man Shaq has cried so much, his upper cheeks and eyes are swollen. It's heart breaking 💔 😔
@Drew Vanheistel ???

I’ve had 2 nights of sleep on it and it still doesn’t feel real.
It feels like a superhero died 😖💔
We all die. It's natural, normal. Stop with the ignorance and be hipocrit. you, and a few billlion people...
I adore Shaq, for his huge heart, his personality and being so humble. I'm hugging you from here Shaq. I'm praying for you and I know I'm a no one, but please PLEASE know we care about you. You are a great man and you had a great brotherhood with Kobe.
I also lost some key people in my life, left me hollow. Mad at the world for going on with their life without them. I totally understand how something so simple like sleep is so hard. How the quiet seems so loud.
Love you Mr. O'Neil
You can tell a piece of Shaq died with Kobe.
Yeah he will forever have a different perspective on life.. Kobe is dead. Nothing will ever change that. But maybe this will be a eye opening for those who take life for granted. "An eye opening revelation for many others who think they are invincible. "
Mostly his little sister died. Thats what really broke him. But the kobe news took it even deepr
I bet Shaq and Lamar Odom are really going through it
*They had another comment on here that said that people need to watch shaq & Check on him daily and just make sure he's okay.*
Look at Shaq. THIS IS REAL LOVE!
He’s in a dark place...ff need to watch and check on him!! I can feel his pain i got teared up listening to him 😭😭😭😭😭
Same here 😢😢😢💔
❤
I wish I could send a fraction of the happiness to Shaq that he's sent me throughout the years. Be good big man.
Were never gonna see another Charles vs Shaq argument involving rings bro, this one hit different man
wait for couple of months and we will hear again "4 rings chuck"
Tripleblade 82 they will argue but after tragedy like this they will start to appreciate one another even more
I can't hold the tears in after hearing him speak man. When he started talking about Joking around at Kobes Hall of Fame induction I can't even begin to understand.
Seeing Shaq like this, is one of the most hardest thing ever. It breaks my heart and soul over it all. 😭 RIP Kobe, Gigi & the other family members and pilot
This is probably the most tragic moment in sports history, I always love watching Shaq on TNT. I’m gonna take his advice to heart about spending more time and talking to the people we love more. I think we all could do that more.

we will see the 3D animated Kobe do that speech
Probably one of the most genuine reaction from a friend... Condolences
Shaq has been through a lot & has had some tough losses this man is 7'1 325 crying this goes to show you that you're never to tough or big to let out your emotions 💪💯🙏
Mr Q Ceaz you might be right but I never call anyone tough because he/she is not showing any emotions .
c d bro I was replying for the comment above I wasn’t even talking abt Shaq’s emotions .
if someone is showing no emotion they are a sociopath, not "tough"
Shaq has always been such a great guy with an enthusiastic personality, it really makes me sad to see the pain in his eyes 💔
Shaq got me crying. I was good until I saw this interview. LOVE KOBE and Giana! Rest In Peace.
Glad he said that about Charles , he ended the beef once and for all
Admiral.D they never had beef, just brotherly love.
@@yeezusdropout it's just banter between those 2, they don't genuinely hate each other.

The raw emotion you can seriously feel coming from this man.
Just the fact a man like that was in his life was a blessing and should try to be grateful he had him.

It’s absolutely heart breaking to see Shaq in such pain. It’s easy to say these guys have perfect lives when in reality they suffer the same pains that we all do. I hope he can patch himself back together and continue trucking. Godspeed, Shaq.
it's a pain that we talking about kobe past tense
Unreal
I still can’t believe it 😭😭😭
I couldn't hold back the tears when Shaq started crying. So much pain in his eyes, so much sadness in his voice. I've never seen anyone more depressed than Shaq today. 😭😭😭
Shaq was literally the first person I thought about when I heard about this too such a tragic thing to happen R.I.P KOBE love you
Man when Shaq cried and choked up I felt in my chest cuz I loss loved one's a Father last April outta no where. And that still hurts didn't know this man but man he feels like my brother like I lost a brother. Condolences to his family and extended family and the families that this tragic accident has effected.
Thank you however you are means alot to me.
Keep your head up brotha your father is here in spirit
I'm sorry for your loss, bro. I don't know you but I felt this.

Thank you all one's again for your condolences I really appreciate you all.

This testimonial about Kobe straight from Shaq hit me the hardest....man Love was deep on that Laker team, with the fans, with the world
I have searched all player reactions to see the love they had for him...waiting for Glenn Rice, Pau Gasol, Phil Jackson
I thought I'd never see big Shaq cry
Poor Shaq might be getting a bit mentally/emotionally exhausted..
I think he should take some time off and grieve with his family. Hold them close Shaq! Kobe along with Gianna and the 7 others are up in the Heavens! Their memeories will live on always!
Serving Lucifer and freemasonery will do that to the soul, coupled with tragedy it will sadly tear him apart
Nothing comes for free with that kind of lifestyle and money. Shaq is crying because he knows the truth of the game. But still sad, only God Jehovah can judge us!
@@patricialutete3441 are u a Jehovah witness
SparkyWatts14 it was just an unfortunate accident, Kobe was a wholesome guy who made it successful for himself & family, put some respect under his name.
I felt the weight of his words, in my chest and my stomach. My heart goes out to Shaq. The amount of loss in a year is too much for him. 💔
I can't remember the last time I cried because it's been so long. Shaq's words touched my heart and I felt like all the numbness i felt before just rushed over my body and I was able to feel his pain and mine.
Watching this makes you feel the entire magnitude of this loss.
Praying for you Shaq... you’re a good man, with a blessed heart, a blessed job, with blessed friends.. never forget the many blessings you have... never
Enough to make a grown man cry😢 rest in paradise
I can’t stop crying 😢 we must mourn, cry do what we have to do but move on in our own way but move on with life. My deepest sympathies for the families. We must all as fans share our love towards each other and respect to honor Kobe legacy. 💜💛💜💛
kih you dudes strange you don’t gotta know somebody for them to have a impact on your life

@kih that's just about the stupidest comment you could of wrote, not because it's the most horrible thing ever but because I can tell it's not a troll comment.. your lack of empathy is truly worrisome..
kih bye you just wanna be negative nobody got time for that
I'm hurting all the way in Detroit! Feel like I just lost my family and never met dat man!
Man it's tough seeing guys you consider really strong crying 😔 I never seen ice cube cry, Tracy mcgrady, Shaq, Jerry West, kawhi etc you never see these guys show emotion
Someone needs to watch Shaq man, he’s way depressed and I hope he’s got a good, close support system.
Yes very much this . I think he should retire completely
@@EricMartinSmithOfficial Nah man thats the completely wrong approach. If he retires now, than he has just more time and space to isolate himself and get in serious trouble like addiction, depression etc. Kenny, Charles and Ernie are his friends. Its good for him to stay together with them. maybe he needs a brake for therapy but no retirement.
I know the Lakers had grief counselors on site on Monday. I hope he talked to them.
He will be fine, trust me, shaq is gonna pull through because of his kids. Just this def is a set back on his life.
@@jhill17 Oh yeah, he can definitely overcome his sister's death as well as Kobe and Gianna's death. But I hope he knows he doesn't have to overcome this alone.
