Το “αντίο” στον Κόμπι Μπράιαντ και τα δάκρυα του Λεμπρόν Τζέιμς

Οι λέξεις είναι πολύ λίγες για να περιγράψουν την θλίψη που βίωσε ο κόσμος χθες μετά την είδηση του θανάτου του θρύλου του NBA Κόμπι Μπράιαντ. Ήταν ένα μεγάλο σοκ, ακόμα και για αυτούς που δεν παρακολουθούν το πρωτάθλημα μπάσκετ του NBA, καθώς ο Κόμπι Μπράιαντ ήταν παγκοσμίως γνωστός και πολλές φορές είχε συγκριθεί με τον GOAT Μάικλ Τζόρνταν.

Ο Κόμπι, ο οποίος είχε αποσυρθεί από την ενεργό δράση το 2015, αποτέλεσε έμπνευση για αρκετά παιδιά και σίγουρα ο θρύλος του θα παραμείνει ζωντανός. Δεν θα σας κουράσουμε με λεπτομέρειες για τον θάνατο του, καθώς το έκαναν άλλοι πολύ πριν από εμάς, και δεν πρόκειται να πούμε κάτι για αυτόν τον άνθρωπο που δεν έχει ειπωθεί. Αυτό που θα κάνουμε είναι να σας παρουσιάσουμε τον τρόπο με τον οποίο του είπαν το τελευταίο αντίο οι άνθρωποι που τον γνώριζαν, θέλοντας και εμείς με την σειρά μας να αποτίσουμε φόρο τιμής στον θρύλο του NBA, Κόμπι Μπράιαντ και φυσικά την 13χρονη κόρη του, Gianna.

O Σακίλ Ο’ Νιλ είπε το δικό του “αντίο” στον συμπαίκτη του και πάνω απ’όλα αδερφό του.

Δείτε παρακάτω πως εξέφρασαν την λύπη τους άλλες διάσημες προσωπικότητες:

Kobe was a legend on the court and just getting started in what would have been just as meaningful a second act. To lose Gianna is even more heartbreaking to us as parents. Michelle and I send love and prayers to Vanessa and the entire Bryant family on an unthinkable day.

I will remember Kobe as a basketball legend,a father& a man. Watching him&Gigi share their relationship with us is something I won’t ever forget. My heart aches for his wife, children& family. I hope the waves of love being sent to his family can ease some of the pain they feel.

My friend, a legend, husband, father, son, brother, Oscar winner and greatest Laker of all-time is gone. It’s hard to accept. Kobe was a leader of our game, a mentor to both male and female players. pic.twitter.com/NXsrXmCkkG

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver issued the following statement today regarding the passing of Kobe Bryant: “The NBA family is devastated by the tragic passing of Kobe Bryant and his daughter, Gianna. “For 20 seasons, Kobe showed us what is possible when remarkable talent blends with an absolute devotion to winning. He was one of the most extraordinary players in the history of our game with accomplishments that are legendary: five NBA championships, an NBA MVP award, 18 NBA All-Star selections, and two Olympic gold medals. But he will be remembered most for inspiring people around the world to pick up a basketball and compete to the very best of their ability. He was generous with the wisdom he acquired and saw it as his mission to share it with future generations of players, taking special delight in passing down his love of the game to Gianna. “We send our heartfelt condolences to his wife, Vanessa, and their family, the Lakers organization and the entire sports world.”
