ABC is reporting his daughters were on board with him. Was he flying the helicopter? He has 4 daughters. One a newborn.


Really really hope this isn't true as well




I never get emotional over celebrity deaths but Kobe was one of the main reasons I got into playing/watching basketball from elementary school up until graduating high school.


Today sucks

Wow. I remained relatively unaffected by this as I have no emotional attachment to him as an athlete, but the news is rather shocking
- Makita

I refrain from caring more or commenting about celebs & what happens to them. Normal ppl die tragically & even in ways that are preventable across the world but get no media coverage. The poor & less fortunate could care a less about fame.

Great ppl who pass sure Mother Theresa etc

I agree, but if it's a celebrity that inspired you then there's always going to be some emotion. I don't blame people who aren't basketball fans for not being emotional. Like when someone posts a death about a country star, I feel bad for the person and their family but it doesn't hit me emotionally since like you said, there's people dying every second around the world.

Without chasing multiple news feeds, I have only read that 5 people on board, no survivors. Was his family with him?

2 & snippets of last year & this. Not much I agree but what I look for is he puck hounds & always plays with energy. I don’t see his scoring translating to the NHL.

Here's the link to watch Northeastern games.

Madden's scoring is absolutely translatable. I don't think he has the shot to beat NCAA goaltending from far out. It's going to dirty areas and collecting rebounds or using his hands in tight spots.

ABC News report says Kobe Bryant's four daughters were believed to be on board the helicopter. No words.

Then scroll on?

My grandfather passed away last week and I chose not to post on it anywhere on social media, but I share my condolences to the Bryant family, doesnt mean I care more about a celebrity than I do my family.

So you have watched 2 games and some internet highlights . The teams they played in those two games do you remember who they were and who they had him up against? What was their rankings and what was NE rankings at the time. Do you remember his line mates or how much TOI he had ?
- VANTEL

None to the above. My focus was glued to him & how he approaches all situations. It’s also the same way I studied as a player in sports. He is self motivated & determined. 2 qualities that go further than skill alone. Think of Burrows.

There's a lot of BS reports and rumours all over twitter, I'm getting different links texted to me by friends. This one seems the most "promising" but then again, that still means 4 other people lost their lives so it's tragic regardless

Sources have confirmed that neither #Bryant’s wife or children were on board of the helicopter that crashed.

Now you can go back to Petey as he gets bigger and stronger how better he is becoming. Madden also has a lot of room to grow in the physical department that will add to his game.

Its heartbreaking. He had his youngest (6 month old) a few days after I had mine. Knowing that child will grow up not remembering or knowing their dad is so sad.

I never met my grandparents, all dead before I was born and lost my ma and pa in my early 30s. that was tough.
