[@davidtristan6625]

2018 and i still get goisebumps hearing kobe being introduced and the crowd hearing him on that just shows how much ppl like and respect kobe all around the nba.

[@cyrilnwaguru]

Kobe, man... not you. Grew up in Detroit so you know what that means but I always respected that competitiveness. It was a pleasure watching you from my childhood to college, man. Watching that last game live with my brother was crazy. I remember saying “FUCK THE WARRIORS GOIN 73-9!!! THIS KOBE LAST GAME!!!!!”. I was never so happy to cheer for an adversary (in sports), EVER! Went out on top, as you deservingly should. I turned 24 in November and I already felt that I should be approaching life wit that mamba mentality but now I have to. God bless your wife, kids, family and friends who feel this grief the hardest. Rest In Peace Kobe Bean, Mambacita GiGi, and the other fathers, mothers, children, and pilot aboard 💔🙏🏿

[@crossbone3444]

Man i still get goosebumps on that kobe intro. I remember watching this and i can't help smiling about it. MAMBA FAN FOR LIFE!

[@nimasab6395]

Oh so now you are a bandwagon GSW fan

[@WhereDaHoesAt]

Honestly there's no reason for me to even explain myself because no matter what I say you'll still think I'm a "bandwagon" ,but I've been a KD fan all my life, from all the rough times he's had in OKC, making the finals in 2012 and the team then wasn't good enough to beat Miami, his MVP year just going off 🔥🔥🔥🔥 scoring machine, worked on his assist and his numbers were better that year, the criticism he's gotten in that same year in the playoffs being named Mr. Unreliable in the newspaper, this year finally beating the Spurs to get to the WCF and got close to the finals, and up to now where he's on a new team. I follow KD and only KD wherever I go because he's my favorite player and I'm a KD fan. If this makes me a "Gsw bandwagon" instead of a true KD fan then so be it I guess smh.
