The whole basketball community, young basketball fans and aspirants mourns as Kobe Bryant, 41 and his 13 year-old daughter Gianna, was among of the 9 passengers who died in a helicopter crash last Sunday morning in Calabasas, California.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department has been confirmed that there were no survivors among the 9 passengers who aboard the aircraft, yet an investigation is still on going.
Aside from the basketball star and his daughter, another sport legend passed away, the Orange Coast College baseball coach, John Altobelli and his wife Keri and daughter Alyssa was also there alongside with the pilot and 3 other who died in the deadly crash.
At this point, there were no clear details about the incident aside from the confirmation that there were no survivors despite the effort to recover the victims immediately. The crash caused a bushfire that prevent the respondents to penetrate the site. An investigation is still on going as to why the pilot was granted permission to fly even though weather conditions were worse than usual standards for flying.
A witness called the fog yesterday "as thick as swimming in a pool if milk".
This sudden death of the 2- times NBA Finals MVP, who inspired millions of young children to be a successful basketball player in the future, brought people together to pay tribute and to honor his memories in every ways possible, the Sunday's Grammy awards also paid tribute to the legend.
Despite the fact that there are some developments in the investigation, we should still be responsible in spreading the news. Due to the sudden rush of emotions people tend to be carried away by these situations and let their judgment be clouded by their emotions, that's why there some people who became a free target of fake news that are circulating through the online community. There are still no concrete evidence and statement as to where and who are the people responsible for the accident, we should avoid to jump into conclusions and put the blame in certain person. Always remember that there are tons of facrors that may cause a certain occurrence that cannot be controlled by man.
"The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want to do"
Behind every kid who shouts "kobe" every time a crumpled paper was shot in random trashbins always lies a great story to tell. You may be gone but your legacy will always remain.

“I hate seeing my team mamba girls play against each other. This is GREAT defense by our mamba pg Alyssa Altobelli and a familiar looking fade by our 2gd the Mambacita”. - Kobe Bryant
Was originally saving this post for the start of playoff season, but thought it would be appropriate for now.
RIP to the legendary Black Mamba and young warrior Gianna. And our deepest condolences to the Bryant Family and everyone affected by this untimely tragedy.
Kobe, your spirit, inspiration, and legacy will live on forever in our hearts and minds. We will miss you dearly.
