Even as a lifelong celtics fan I feel bad for

Kobe Bryant. I don't want to see him go out like that.

Would have been better if it happened to an asshole I mean an A rod.

This might be a career ending injury considering Kobe was already talking retirement. Such a shame to see him go out like that.

They don't call him "Black-Mamba" or "The Assassin" for nothing!

As someone who roots for every team other than the Laker's, there was no one I wanted to see less with the ball in his hands at crunch-time, even MJ might not have been as deadly with the game on the line...

He deserved better, which leads me to believe that he will probably come back in some capacity, but there is no way he can come back and be 100% of what he was even recently.

If you like basketball this is a loss and a bit tragic really, he was/is one of the true greats!
