RIP Kobe Bryant

Kobe Bryant and his young daughter died in a helicopter accident last sunday.  Kobe was a hero to many in the basketball community and elsewhere.  He played his entire career with the Los Angeles Lakers and although he had many iconic moments on the court, it was his inspiration to people in everyday life that had the biggest effect.  The Lakers played their first game since this tragedy last night and had a great ceremony in Kobe's memory.  This is not the end of honoring Kobe, his death has affected the all star game format and the Lakers can use this and inspiration to win a Championship.
