This one hit me hard. He appeared to be one of the greats that was going to continue being an ambassador for the league.
I don’t know what the crash rate is on small helicopters and planes but it sure seems like it’s high (at least relative to commercial flights).
Lebron just past Kobe last night in scoring didn't he?
Same, was never a fan but basically so I all of his career, he was a generational icon.

Well, you basically become uninsurable for life insurance purposes if that tells you anything.I don’t know what the crash rate is on small helicopters and planes but it sure seems like it’s high (at least relative to commercial flights).
I was never a fan of the guy during the prime of his career (probably because of my hate for the Lakers in addition to Shaq jilting the Magic for them - or at least that was my "as a kid feels" until the story was explained better after the fact), but I really began to respect him and his accomplishments towards the end of his career and now.
I'm going to guess that TMZ was following him or was covering him today and knew he got on the helicopter. But no one else is confirming now.
