*Why give Kobe a tribute at all since he was a rich man (loaded) who was worth $600 million dollars* ??? Are you serious? He stuck a ball through a metal hoop and made $600 million from selling $200-$1000 pairs of sneakers from most people who don't even have health insurance. While 1.1 billion of the world has inadequate footwear, over 30 million children die a year in the world due to no shoes at all...yet Kobe is admired by millions. Are you nuts.. The fool was even a Catholic...and thousands of children have been raped by priest due to people like Kobe funding that madness. Wake up. Kobe served Satan and money and fame and rings...not God.

​@@janeknight6526 Weak reply....Kobe let millions of people die since he would not use his money to even feed them you fool. Kobe did a ton more dark stuff, but that is one simple example. Do you really think God would hoard $600 million dollars and watch the money grow...while millions die and could be saved with that money? You are a fool and feel sorry for anyone who listens to your advice on God.
