Dear Kobe,
Thank you for everything. Basketball won't be the same without you, no matter who comes after you. We count ourselves lucky to have watched you grow up from a high-school standout to one of the greatest players the NBA will ever see.
We know things have been tough lately.
We know the haters probably weigh on you.
But, we're thankful for what you've brought to the table every single night. And we're thankful to have been in the presence of a legend for so long.
Thanks for the memories,
-- Lakers fans everywhere
