Nekadašnji NBA as Lamar Odom, koji je delio dres Los Anđeles Lejkersa sa tragično nastradalim Kobijem Brajantom, oprostio se od bivšeg saigrača emotivnom porukom u kojoj je sadržana ogromna tuga zbog gubitka sportiste

Košarkaš je zbog problema sa narkoticima u nekoliko navrata pronađen u beznadežnom stanju, ali je svaki put uspevao da se izbori i na kraju nadživi Brajanta, koji je bio uzor svima.

These picture are just the tip of the iceberg of our relationship. He taught me so many things in life that were necessary on and off the court. On the court he taught me how to carve out defenses and how to take my time. How to make winning my ultimate goal. Off the court he taught me to sign my own checks lol. Of course anyone who knows my story knows I’ve suffered a lot of loss but the only loss I can compare this to is when I lost my son. Even though our relationship wasn’t father/son, it was more like him being a teacher and me being his brother. I’m glad I got to be the ying to your yang as far as the locker room was concerned. It was my pleasure. I couldn’t even catch my breath today when I heard this news. I just knew if he was in a helicopter crash he would have been the one to survive. Somehow he would have jumped out and landed on his feet. I’m sitting here thinking about when we would be in practice scrimmaging and you would start the jump ball off with elbowing Sasha in the chest. Like dude it’s 10:30 in the morning lol. You think watching him play was crazy, you gotta think in practice if you scored like 8-9 buckets throughout the practice you had a great practice. I’ve seen him knock off 13-14 in a row in practice!!!! I’m still waiting for the media to come out and say wrong report. No way God took my brother this early. I know I been through my own stuff in life with using drugs and not being good to myself. When I went through that Coma situation if God would have came to me and said we would take me and spare Kobe I would have rather that happened. In honor of my brother I’m up at 4am tomorrow to get to the gym! Gigi gone give you buckets!!!! I love you brother ???? @kobebryant

Odom se uz zajedničku fotografiju oprostio od Brajanta uz redove potresnih rečenica od kojih posebno odzvanjaju sledeće:

- Ova slika je samo vrh ledenog brega naše veze. Naučio me je toliko stvari u životu, koje su neophodne i na terenu, ali i van njega. Na parketu me je učio kako da igram odbranu, kako da pobedim. Van terena me je učio kako da potpisujem čekove. Svi koji me poznaju, znaju da sam dosta propatio u životu, ali jedino čime mogu ovu situaciju da uporedim jeste kad sam ostao bez sina. Iako Kobi i ja nismo imali odnos kao otac i sin, više je on bio učitelj, a ja njegov brat. Drago mi je što smo ostvarili Jing-Jang odnos u svlačionici– napisao je Odom i nastavio u dirljivom stilu.

- Nisam mogao da dođem do daha kad sam čuo vest o smrti. I dalje čekam medije da jave kako vest nije tačna, da nema šanse da je Bog tako brzo uzeo mog brata. Znam da nisam bio dobar, da sam se drogirao, zbog čega sam pao u komu. Da je moglo tad da se desi, da biram, da Bog uzme mene, a ostavi Kobija, prihvatio bih. U slavu mog brata sutra ujutru ću ustati u četiri sata i otići u teretanu. Volim te, brate – završio je nestašni dečko NBA lige.
