The basketball world struggles to cope with the fact that Kobe Bryant is gone. His sudden death shocked every citizen in this country. Numerous athletes sent words of support for his family, praising the Los Angeles Lakers. Bryant died at 41. The helicopter crash also killed his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven others. Lakers superstar LeBron James arrived in Los Angeles along with his teammates and other fans.

For King James, Kobe Bryant was the ultimate mentor and idol. LeBron couldn’t hold his tears, and his Instagram post says it all.

“I’m Not Ready but here I go. Man I sitting here trying to write something for this post but every time I try I begin crying again just thinking about you, niece Gigi and the friendship/bond/brotherhood we had! I literally just heard your voice Sunday morning before I left Philly to head back to LA. Didn’t think for one bit in a million years that would be the last conversation we’d have. WTF!!

“I’m heartbroken and devastated my brother!! Man I love you big bro. My heart goes to Vanessa and the kids. I promise you I’ll continue your legacy man! You mean so much to us all here especially Lakers Nation and it’s my responsibility to put this shit on my back and keep it going!! Please give me the strength from the heavens above and watch over me! I got US here! There’s so much more I want to say but just can’t right now because I can’t get through it! Until we meet again my brother!!”

A sudden death

LeBron spoke in the name of every fan. Bryant was the idol of many young athletes. Everyone wanted to be like the Black Mamba. Everyone wanted to do the Kobe shot.

In his last tweet, Kobe congratulated LeBron for passing him for third on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. LeBron didn’t brag about his achievement, and he praised Bryant and everything he taught him.

Bryant died in a helicopter crash that killed nine people. Experts blame the foggy weather, and we wait for more details about the cause of the tragedy.
