I love that he made fun of the Jordan Crying meme in this speech as a way to get the grieving crowd to laugh. Great speech from a personal hero of mine for a guy who meant a lot to a whole generation.

At 70 years old, and not a big NBA Fan, cried like a 2 year old Today. Thank you Michael Jordan, l last time I cried out loud like this, was at my Dad's Service. Because it's always about this lost time of Love, that we should have for each other. And for
Little Brother's to. He has you in his hands now, each moment is special. Don't forget to enjoy your time.

"Everyone always wanted to talk about the comparison between he an just wanted to talk about Kobe.." That line right there KILLS ME.

[DavidJ]

People are always talking about the NEXT Michael Jordan, when I still haven't seen the next Kobe Bryant. Because Kobe was the closest that I've seen to the GOAT, Michael Jordan. RIP Kobe and Gigi. 2-24.

After watching the Last Dance, I really get why Jordan is crying here. Very few understand the level of passion and love for winning like Jordan does. Kobe did and Jordan was blessed to have a friend like that

There will never be another Michael Jordan. There will never be another Kobe Bryant. Let's stop comparing these two greats and appreciate that which both of us gave us. Unbelievable basketball performance at the highest level imaginable!

I’m so proud of him not wiping the tears. Beautiful Sadness for a Beautiful Soul.

I love his eulogy its spontaneous and really heartfelt

[Leopar]

Micheal is a real Lion. Not many men can brag to live the life he lived, the way he lived it.

To see the great Michael Jordan crying, is so moving. He was dying inside, but he wanted to pay tribute to his little brother and friend. It's not shameful to cry. It just shows his passion.

The Impact Of Mike Crying Will Take Some People Awhile To Understand

[tinnelledwards]

Very touching speech from the goat to the mamba it hurts to see our dear mamba not gracing the court with his talent or having a good ending with his family rip to KING KOBE and his Gigi!!

[CustomizedUsername]

Even the speech was goat level. After watching the Last Dance and seeing how he went after shooting guards that were compared to him, he must’ve really saw Kobe as a little brother. MJ’s brothers are both older and Kobe had 2 older sisters so they were probably both the brothers they always wanted for each other. Real recognize real, kindred spirits cut from the same cloth. Mamba Forever.

This makes me cry EVERY time I watch, but it's filled with so much love ❤️

[xaviermagnate]

JORDAN!!! Thank You. Hard to lose a brother. I know!

[puttentanesame]

Decades ago, Jerry West was the 'Jordan', the 'Kobe'...good to see you, old timer...paying tribute to #24. So sad Kobe isn't here to age like fine wine too...

[nelsanitytv]

[urielriley]
