Shaq Breaks Down in Tears Talking about Kobe Bryant

Shaq reflects on Kobe Bryant's death.

[@ryandavid6101]

I read this somewhere in the comments and it’s fucking true man - “leaving and returning home safely is an underrated blessing.”

[@brokeguy5607]

I gave that a like.

[@user_abcxyzz]

Not underrated to me. Everyday we face so many ways we can die. Odds are you'll be fine but someday the odds may be against you. For that reason, everyday single day before I leave my home I say the same mantra, asking my angels to keep me safe, and before I close the door to my home, I take one last look inside and have the hope that it won't be the last 🙏

[@Rmeb1228]

Seriously, we never leave our home never expecting to return at the end of the day. We sometimes take life for granted being angry, stressed etc we all as humans need to learn the true gift of life and I believe it’s making memories and loving. Some of us put making money first when in fact we should be making memories.

[@Ham1001dy]

Its a quote that’s been going around all over IG and Twitter

[@meldeebueno]

When I had a child, I realized the importance of getting home safe. Because I want to spend all my time woth them, my family. It is underrated for those who does not realize it yet.

Kobe wasn't 'better' than Shaq...he just played in LA longer. Shaq's Lakers resume is better than Kobe's on an individual level in fewer years. More Finals MVP's and same regular season MVP's in 12 fewer years.

[@drunkvader]

​@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 yeah right Shaq have gotten those Finals MVP by "dominating" bumass centers in the finals, meanwhile Kobe got the best perimeter defenders of the era while having equal contribution to the whole 2001 postseason and carrying Shaq ass through the whole 2002 playoffs (finals against Nets was already a given win). Seasonal MVPs are also popularity contests, not a measure of greatness, and we all know media hated Kobe back then because of the Colorado case. And your argument is invalid since you're saying Shaq's accomplishments by being a Laker demolishes Kobe because he had been in Lakers longer than Shaq. Nope. That's the most stupid thing I've ever seen in KZbin in a while. Shaq winning those MVPs should already be expected as he was the best big man of the time and was on prime mode compared to a 21-23 years old player just about to enter his prime. It's like saying Rodman was the better Laker than Pau Gasol because of his whole resume while only being a Laker for a year. See the absurdity? Stop reaching. Kobe is the best Laker because he holds the most records for the franchise, even Magic and the owners already admitted that fact, so nobodies and wannabe experts can't deny this. Also, if you're gonna say because he played there for 20 years, that's the point. It's rare for a player to even play 10-13 years in the league, even moreso in a lone franchise. That's not a demerit to his achievements but is actually a proof that he's dedicated, something new players today severly lack.

“Death is nothing to us. When we exist, death is not; and when death exists, we are not. All sensation and consciousness ends with death and therefore in death there is neither pleasure nor pain. The fear of death arises from the belief that in death, there is awareness.” ― Epicurus ..... NOW THAT IS DEEP ;)

NOT true my man, you're not gone forever.

[@VENUS.SE7EN]

Dude. I held off watching this for almost three months. I'm not so much in denial anymore, but I feel the void and always will. Sometimes, the pain subsides, and other times it hurts to breathe. This is by far the most challenging loss concerning athletes for me. I've known the name, Kobe Bryant, all my life. Outwardly, I've yet to say that he's dead; I don't want to. It doesn't feel or sound right. I can't go on forever with this comment, so I think I'll just hang it up here. Love you, Kobe Bean. Miss you. This sucks big time.

[@GetintheCAH]

Venus Se7en yeah its just now hitting me cause I’ve finally built the courage to watch this video of Shaq spilling his guts

[@lvl5charmander]

im glad you did. it was truly from his heart, and not like the one from the ceremony.

[@VENUS.SE7EN]

@@lvl5charmander I didn't have a problem with Shaq's speech at the ceremony. Fresh after Kobe's death, my sister asked if I saw this video, and people were sharing it over and over. The thumbnail alone let me know he was distraught. Can't force tears. Besides, seeing Michael break down was enough. It was a beautiful sendoff, but of course, it all still feels like a dream.

[@MediCali951]

Venus Se7en my wife bought me the Kobe mamba mentality book I read 3 pages and had to stop it was just too sad. I also barely came back to this video, I don’t think I can ever watch his memorial service at staples ever again. Even tho I never met him it legit depressed me for months now. I took my kids to the staples courtyard memorial to see the love he got. Coronavirus only made things worse. I think we all need a reminder like this video every once in a while if only to keep us on our toes and keep thriving no matter what because that’s what Kobe would do

[@chrisszczepanski7679]

I feel you man. I hope one day soon I can get through the entire memorial. It's been 3 months and I still haven't come to terms with it. Love you Kobe

[@Meriska4life]

I watch this from time to time but damn it still gets me crying like a little child. Rest in peace Kobe! Legend 4 ever

[@antoniosiguenza576]

thought i was the only one😢

[@GLBJ260]

"My spirit just uh....left my body" man I've never seen Shaq so broken and defeated. He genuinely loved kobe man. This is still so hard to swallow

[@ChunkyPuffsRaichu]

Seriously bruh. I’ve never been so sad over someone dying before. He was like superman...

[@GLBJ260]

@@ChunkyPuffsRaichu so true man!! I went to see him play in 95 when I was 10. And I was a fan ever since!! His death was completely unexpected and shocking!! And knowing those other people died as well, including his daughter, who already had his love for the game and killer instinct makes it even more sad. Dude had a whole new career laid out post basketball. He was doing big big things man.

[@dexteretoy]

@@ChunkyPuffsRaichu he is more than superman, superman isnt real but Kobe is. No idea how i stumbled in this video, this just makes me sad. i miss you Kobe

[@ChunkyPuffsRaichu]

Damn.. I think about him all the time man. His memory is gonna live on forever. The mamba 💯💯💯
