Shocked! Kobe actually died after crashing!
On January 27, Kobe took his second daughter to travel in a private helicopter, but he didn't expect it to become a deadly journey.
The plane suddenly caught fire in Calabasas, , California, , and crashed unexpectedly. No one on the plane survived. Kobe is only 41 years old!
We really don’t know which one will come first or tomorrow. This is another unbearable bad news for many Chinese people who are fighting the epidemic. After all, Kobe is the youth and belief of many people.
As the most dazzling superstar in NBA after Jordan, Kobe devoted his life glory - 20 years of professional basketball career to the Los Angeles Lakers:
- 17 entered the NBA at the age of 17, won five championships, and 18 All-Star players;
- 15 selected the NBA best player and 12 selected the best defensive team;
- became the NBA most valuable player (MVP) in 2008;
- became the youngest player in league history to score 30,000 professionally in league history at the age of 34 and 104 days;
- scored a career total score that surpassed Jordan, and held the highest score record in a single game - 81 points...
" All my efforts are for basketball. " Kobe deserves to be a god, but unfortunately he can only cry and sigh at the jealousy of talent!
"The second place means you are the number one loser"
There are many successors in the so-called "Jordan", but Kobe is definitely the closest one. Smiling Assassin Isaiah Thomas once said, " Kobe is the player we have ever seen and is closest to Jordan. Kobe walks and speaks very much like Jordan. "
. Behind Kobe's success is his paranoid love for basketball. This love originated from his father and began at the age of 6.
1978, Kobe Bean Bryant, the full name Kobe Bean Bryant was born in Philadelphia , Pennsylvania, USA. His father is a former NBA player and former Los Angeles Sparks head coach Joe "Sweet Bean" Bryant. Kobe is the only boy in the family and has 2 sisters.
Under the influence of his father, Kobe started playing basketball at the age of 3. At the age of 6, his father left the NBA to continue his professional basketball career in Italy, and then moved back to the United States. In his unstable living environment since childhood, Kobe couldn't make good friends, and basketball became his only favorite.
"I fell in love with you when I was still six years old. I never thought about what it would be like to end this journey. I only saw myself running all the way."
Italy's most popular football, but Kobe has a special liking for basketball. When he was 10 years old, he had a professional coaching consultant asking about Kobe's dream and learned that he " wants to become an NBA basketball player ." The consultant suggested, "I think you should do something else."
But this did not shake Kobe's determination, but he practiced more diligently.
Former US President Wilson said: Every successful person is a dreamer. Everyone has dreams. On the road to success, there may be people who question your dreams, and maybe your dreams are difficult to realize, but please don’t give up. As long as you focus 100% on this and work hard on it, it will always come true.
Kobe proved this truth with his talent and sweat. When he was in high school, he broke the high school scoring record in Southeast Pennsylvania with 2884 points, winning multiple awards such as Naismith High School Player of the Year, Gatorade's High School Player of the Year, McDonald's All-American Team, and the first-ranked American Team Player of the United States today. The coach evaluated him as "a dominant all-round player."
1996, Kobe was 17 years old and had just graduated from high school. With his outstanding performance, he could have entered a good university with a scholarship, but for his dream of basketball, he chose to go directly to the NBA and become the sixth excellent player in NBA history to directly record from high school.
"When I was a kid, many people told me that the chances of entering the NBA were lower than 1%... If you are obsessed with doing something, you will care about it 24 hours a day.”
Perhaps many people thought that Kobe must become a great man at that time, but I am afraid no one would have thought that he would play in the Lakers for 20 years and become the longest player in the NBA history.
Dreams come true, but Kobe did not slacken because of this. When he first entered the NBA, he said to his coach: "Give me the ball, I will handle the game." ” This is not arrogance, but self-confidence.
He is strict with his teammates during training, but he is even more ruthless to himself. He gets up at four o'clock every day and walks through the dark streets of Los Angeles to practice; learns Michael Jordan's various tricks through video; he must hit 1,000 shots every day, carefully study the information of each opponent, and understands it.
Even if his fingers, wrists, and shoulders are injured, he rarely gets off; even if his Achilles tendon ruptures, he has to finish two free throws before leaving the court. After winning three championships, he also learned his inside steps by Olajuwon (a legendary NBA star) in the offseason...
He claims to be a black mamba snake and can maintain accuracy at high speed. And the black mamba comes from The code name of Uma Thurman in Kill Bill. An Avenger, a killer who climbs up from the grave.
"The second place means you are the number one loser." Kobe's love for basketball is murderous and has a posture of fighting against everything. 20 years of persistence and absolute paranoia for success, how can Kobe not succeed?
From 1996 to 2016, he experienced 1,345 games, took 48,595 minutes, scored 33,583 points, 7,043 rebounds, 6,302 assists, 1,943 steals... Finally, it became the belief of others and stood on the top of purple gold.
Tang Shen admired him, "Kobe was my childhood idol, and he possessed the spiritual qualities of a winner. He put in too much effort, he gave all his money to the game, and you had to be solemn. ”
Little Plum (Leonardo) was crazy about him: “ He wished we could win every game. Once our performance on the court made him feel uncomfortable, he would start to chatter and criticize us. ”
Countless domestic stars are his fans, Jackie Chan, Zhang Ziyi, Li Yifeng, Lin Xilei, Jay Chou, Li Bingbing, Pan Weibo, and Jack Ma has also personally watched his game...
Along the way, it is not a smooth road. Kobe has also experienced the lows of the game, the dilemma of friendship with the big shark O'Neal, and the rape sect...
But he used his efforts and hard work to reshape his unique ace status in the NBA, so that when he retired, countless people burst into tears, and countless people lamented that youth was no longer there.
Nothing is difficult in the world. Apart from having a son,
Kobe's life, if you want to compare it with a character in the entertainment industry, it can only be Stephen Chow . Stephen Chow has gone from playing a supporting role to the king of comedy, and Kobe has gone from being a substitute sitting at the end of the bench to a living legend.
and his character is a bit slander. The two are so similar. Kobe is called the Mavericks, but he is lucky than Stephen Chow that he met his goddess at the age of 21 - Vanessa .
1999, 17-year-old Vanessa went to the concert with her friends, but was stopped by a scout when the show ended, "Are you interested in participating in the filming of a music video? We are looking for female models. Are you willing to give it a try? "
Vanessa, full name Vanessa Ubiyeta Koyoni Leni, inherited her mother's beauty genes, but she was not just beautiful.
At that time, she was in high school and her family had serious financial problems. Her mother lost her job due to chronic back pain and her stepfather was facing bankruptcy. In order to subsidize the family, she successfully auditioned and participated in the video shooting.
Vanessa would not have thought at the time that this was the beginning of a change in her life.
It turned out that 21-year-old Kobe also participated in the recording of this event. He fell in love with Vanessa at first sight. The fate was so wonderful.
"MV was filmed for two days, and I kept following her and chatting with her during the shooting. She gave me a phone number, and I called her the next day and chatted for hours, and she was really beautiful. ”
A year later, Vanessa publicly appeared at the Lakers’ home court as Kobe’s girlfriend, and immediately became the target of media pursuit.Overnight, she turned from an ordinary high school girl to a superstar figure with helicopter tracking and shooting.
Vanessa's high school classmate recalled, "At that time, many people didn't believe that she was in love with Kobe, but soon everyone realized that Vanessa was not bragging. Because the roses that Kobe gave to Vanessa were piled up in the classroom, the Lakers star also drove a Mercedes-Benz to pick her up."
On Vanessa's 18th birthday, the two were engaged, but this love was not blessed by Kobe's parents, because the reason was the huge gap in economic conditions between the two.
After all, just four days after the two got engaged, Vanessa's stepfather declared bankruptcy. Kobe generously donated money to give Vanessa a house with all furniture, a Mercedes-Benz, and $120,000 in cash, to pay off all the debts owed by Vanessa's family. It's no wonder Kobe's parents suspected Vanessa's motive for approaching her son.
In April 2001, Kobe and Vanessa married, but only 12 people attended the wedding. Neither Kobe's parents nor sister attended, and the coach and teammates were invited.
Kobe is also a willful BOY. In order to express his love for Vanessa, he refused to sign a pre-marital property agreement.
"Most reporters look down on me. They think I am a selfish and vain woman, and think I am not worthy of Kobe. Kobe is also shrouded in doubt. No one really understands us, but we only understand each other ourselves."
Although the marriage between the two has been questioned, using happiness is the best fight back.
Vanessa manages Kobe's life in her own way. In 2003, her eldest daughter Natalia was born. She did not hire a nanny, but chose to take care of herself.
But the happiest moment ushered in a marriage crisis. Kobe was involved in the "rape" incident in Eagle County in 2003. Even in pain, Vanessa still chose to stand shoulder to shoulder with Kobe. She held her husband's hand at the press conference and said in front of reporters that Kobe had made a mistake, but she did not commit a crime.
"Vanessa was very angry and could choose to divorce and take half of her property, but she didn't want Natalia to grow up in the family atmosphere of her parents' divorce, so she decided to forgive me. She got pregnant again in 2004, but she had a miscarriage due to excessive pressure."
After surviving the most difficult years, Kobe's career returned to the peak, Vanessa became the number one wife in the NBA, with a beautiful and glorious scenery.
And in those years, Kobe suffered serious injuries to the Achilles tendon, knee and shoulders. Vanessa was always by his side, helping Kobe to overcome the pain again and again and again to return to the court.
And the birth of the second daughter Jaina makes Vanessa and Kobe's relationship seem to be restored to stability. But in 2011, the relationship between the two once again lit up red light. Vanessa submitted her divorce application and Kobe moved out of their residence. The media then dug out the news that their two lovers had.
But just when the outside world thought Vanessa would break up with Kobe, the plot flipped again. Vanessa took her children to London to cheer for Kobe, and the couple reunited.
or many years of love, plus the ties of children, no one can do without anyone else.
2016 and December 5, 2019, the third and fourth daughters were born one after another. Although they were ridiculed for not being able to give birth to a son, Kobe didn't care. "It's okay to have a daughter, it's good,"
But Vanessa seems to want to have a son more, "But every time I say that, she will go crazy. She will say, 'If you try again, you have five daughters, it's because of your broken mouth.'"
The fifth child seems to be in the scope of their plan, but unfortunately it will never be possible now.
Conclusion
"This season is everything I can give. Even if my heart can bear more blows, my will can continue to support me to persevere, but my body tells me it's time to say goodbye."
Despite reluctance, Kobe ended his basketball career in 2016. But as early as 17 years ago, Kobe began to think about his life after retirement. “Since I was 21 years old, I would meditate for a long time and ask myself what I did after retirement."
So he turned into a domineering president, entered business, founded venture capital funds, invested in beverage companies, and his business territory has even begun to take shape; in 2018, he also won the Oscar for Best Animation Short Film for "Dear Basketball".
He once said, "If basketball is still his greatest achievement twenty years later, then I will fail." "Kobe, who is unwilling to be mediocre, could have achieved greater success, and it is unknown that he became a business tycoon, but now it has become an eternal regret!
For Kobe's sudden departure, Jordan, McGrady , Ronaldo, Shu Qi, Chen He, Wang Feng, Lin Xilei, Liu Xiang, Wu Kequn, Pan Weibo and other stars posted messages to mourn! Zhang Ziyi said that she was still confused after hearing the bad news for 8 hours. Lin Xilei said that she saw the news, "I'm crazy, I can't believe it or not! "
The superstar fell, the legend is no longer, so sad, sad!
