The level of boredom to make a stop motion televisual picture film is alarming. I know bc I've done it. That said, this is glorious.

Didn't know Kobe was left handed. God I'm tired of Snapchats (and apparently now TikTok) front camera reversing the image

Kobe Bryant, 41, lost his life in a tragic helicopter crash on January 26. His 13-year-old daughter Gianna Bryant, and seven others including the pilot were also on board. The crash reportedly happened due to adverse weather conditions in Calabasas, while Bryant and the others were heading to one of Gianna's games in Thousand Oaks.
Bryant's last social media post was dedicated to LeBron James, congratulating him for passing him on the all-time scoring list. James, who started playing for the Lakers in 2018, was returned from Philadelphia when he heard the news. He posted a lengthy and heartfelt message dedicated to Bryant on Instagram, vowing to carry on his legacy.
A year after Bryant's last NBA title in 2010, James moved to the Miami Heat, where he won two back-to-back NBA titles (2012, 2013). James' dominated the East while Bryant played the final few years of his illustrious NBA career. The five-time NBA champion retired in 2016, the same year James won the Cavaliers their first NBA title in history.
