Probably the biggest national tragedy since Sandy Hook. I had to refrain from posting for the first two hours because I didn't want to believe it was real.
I'm no NBA fan and even less a Lakers fan, but the man is an American icon from coast to coast, and the circumstances all the more tragic - traveling with his daughter, the heir he left to carry his torch. He remains a hero to locals, and "Lower Merion" jerseys are still part of ordinary streetwear here. The legend will only grow with the thoughts of what could have been.
I'm relieved that his faith picked up later in life (per Molly) because 2003 left a sour taste in my mouth when I was still a fan. It seems he left a beautiful family behind, and I know the NBA Superstar fraternity will be there to help them the best they can.
