Celtics Rearrange Travel Plans In Order To Attend Kobe Bryant Memorial

Quote:
The Boston Celtics will have the opportunity to attend the memorial for former NBA superstar Kobe Bryant at Staples Center on Feb. 24. The Celtics pushed back their departing flight from Los Angeles so players and staff could attend the memorial, according to The Boston Globe’s Adam Himmelsbach. The memorial for Bryant is set for 10 a.m. PST, the morning after the Celtics play the Los Angeles Lakers at 3:30 p.m. ET.

Damn. Respect.


I am sort of speechless.. still upset he's gone

Quote:
“I knew we’d have a number of guys that might want to go to the memorial,” Celtics head coach Brad Stevens said. “It’ll be completely up to them, but we wanted to give us that flexibility and that option.”


I'm with you brother.

This is one of the many clips I've watched every single day multiple times since his passing

Speechless. Celtics are rivals..but just love the respect they have for Kobe.

Great read on Kobe and his training assistant from UC Irvine that turned into a lasting friendship. Really cool perspective

This is one of the best kept secret friendship stories.

I am truly stunned that they both could coexist without having much difficulty in being their own selves.

Getting to know more of Kobe's life, too bad it's after his death.

This is the one to watch. It's a half hour but so worth it. Better done than all the others i've seen on TV and elsewhere. Great work!

Does Dwight also have a Kobe tat on his left wrist? Looks like a Mamba #8 tat. Just noticed it right now.

Dwyane Wade echoes Kobe in Heat jersey retirement
Quote:
"Kobe said the most important thing is to try to inspire others so they can be great in whatever they try to do," Wade recalled to a full Heat crowd on Saturday night. "I hope I inspired you. Thank you for making me a part of your legacy. Please know you're a huge part of mine."

After the ceremony he expanded on his remarks about Bryant, saying, "The impact that the passing of Kobe has done on myself and so many others is it's made us sit down and stop. Life goes so fast. We move at a rapid pace. It's made me enjoy the moment more. It's made me want to create more memories. It definitely put a lot of things in perspective. As athletes, we're looked at as superheroes. We looked at Kobe as a superhero. That moment has touched all of us and will continue to. Kobe was leading the way -- he retired and showed us in his next act after retirement that you can master that as well. He mastered basketball, he mastered being an amazing father, he mastered being a husband, he mastered being a creator. He was showing us the way and now we don't have that. So I do have a responsibility to be that guy and show the way for the next generation."
