I would say good morning, but it`s afternoon. I'm grateful to Vanessa and the Brian ffamily for the opportunity to speak today. I'm grateful to be here to honor Gigi and celebrate the gifts that Kobe gave us all-what. 

He accomplished as a basketball player,  as a businessman and storyteller and as a father. In the game of basketball in life as a parent, Kobe left nothing in the tank. He left it all on the floor.

Maybe it surprised people that Kobe and I were very close friends. But we were very close friends, Kobe was my dear friend, he was like a little brother. 

Everyone always wanted to talk about the comparisons between he and I. I just wanted to talk about Kobe.

You know all of us have , little brothers, little sisters who for whatever reason always tend to get in your stuff, your closet, your shoes, everything, it was a nuisance if I can say that word. But that nuisance turned into love over a period of time. Just because the admiration that they have for you as big brothers or big sisters. 

The questions in wanting to know every little detail about life that were about to embark on, he used to call me, text me 11;30,2;30,3o`clock in the morning. Talking about post up moves, footwork, and something ,the triangle.

At first, it was an aggravation, but then it turned into a certain passion, this kid had passion like you would never know, it`s an amazing thing about passion, if you love something, if you have a strong passion for something. You would go to the extreme to try to understand or try to get it,  either ice cream, cokes hamburgers, whatever you have a love for. If you have to walk, you would go get it, if you have to beg someone, you would go get it. 

What Kobe Bryant was to me was the inspiration that someone truly cared about the way either I played the game or the way that he wanted to play the game. He wanted to be the beat basketball player that he could be. And as I got to know him, I wanted to be the best big brother that I could be.

To do that, you have to put up with the aggravation, the late night calls, or the dumb questions, I took great pride, as I got to know Kobe Bryant that he was just trying to be a better person a better basketball player. We talked about business, we talked about family, we talked about everything. And he was just trying to be a better person. 

Now he`s got me and I`ll have to took at another crying me for the next. I told my wife I wasn`t gonna do this, cause I didn`t want to see that for the next three or four years. That is what Kobe Bryant does to me. I`m pretty sure Vanessa and his friends all can say the same thing. He knows how to get ti you in a way that affects you personally. Even through he`s being a pain in the ass. 

But you have a sense of love for him and the way that he can bring out the best in you . and he did that for me. I remember maybe a couple moment ago he sends me a text and he said, I`m trying to teach my daughter some moves, and I don`t know what I was thinking or what I was working on, but what were you thinking about when you were growing up trying to work on your moves?

I said what age? He says 12. I said 12, I was trying to play baseball, he sends me a text back saying laughing my ass off. And this is at 2 o`clock in the morning. But the thing about him was we could talk about anything that related to basketball. But we could talk about anything that related to life.

And we ,as we grew up in life,
