when the TMZ story broke and there still wasn't anything on CNN et al many minutes later I thought maybe someone at TMZ had toggled publish on an embargoed pre-written Kobe dies story. Media outlets all have obits and such in the can ready to go for celebs. Most everyone's aware that Kobe flies around LA in his private chopper so would make sense to have a Kobe dies in helicopter crash story at the ready.

Equally creepy that the NBA network went from a Lakers game to a show on Magic

Did I hear that right?

It's hard to wrap your mind around the permanence of it all sometimes. One minute you're here then you're gone forever.

Was interested to see what else he had planned after retirement. His ambition and commitment certainly set him up for success. Will remember him for those same qualities.

That is what I heard too -- waiting for more confirmation. So sad... I am feeling emotions I don't know how to put into words.

It’s odd because I heard they weren’t on board on one station and that they were on board on another.

I had to turn away from that.

I thought that Ramona Shelburne was breaking down on a phone call on ESPN a few minutes earlier.

If ABC News reported the family was also killed and not true, then heads need to roll. That would take Fake News to a whole new level.

Sources have confirmed that neither #Bryant’s wife or children were on board of the helicopter that crashed.

Add "growing old" to the list of things MJ is better than Kobe at.

But seriously that is just awful news. I feel terrible for his kids.

Watching the game last night and he instantly tweeted when Lebron passed him up on the scoring list. Congratulated him.

Dead a little bit after that.

Surreal.
