EBay is taking action against resellers who are looking to pawn off the exclusive Kobe Bryant memorial t-shirts and programs that were given to attendees at the Staples Center memorial service on February 24th. Those who were fortunate enough to be in attendance received a special edition t-shirt and program, both featuring memorable photos taken of the Laker legend and his daughter.

Almost immediately after the conclusion of the event, those Kobe shirts and programs began popping up on eBay, with one seller netting more than $2,000 for the commemorative Kobe t-shirt. Others were offering "Kobe Memorial" bundle packs, which includes the t-shirt and program, with starting bids of $3,000 and a "Buy It Now" of $5,000.

However, TMZ reports that all of those items will soon be pulled from eBay if they haven't been removed from the site already.

More than 20,000 people packed the Staples Center on Monday for the Kobe and Gianna Bryant memorial service, including NBA and WNBA legends past and present, musicians, celebrities and fans. According to ESPN, more than 80,000 people entered a random drawing for the chance to purchase tickets to the service, but only a fraction actually got through.

Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna tragically passed away in a helicopter accident, alongside seven other people, on January 26th. The whole basketball community has been in a state of shock since their deaths and numerous tributes have poured in since. Yesterday, the city of Los Angeles got to pay respects to Kobe and Gigi as a public memorial was held at the Staples Center. Numerous people spoke at the event, including those who Kobe knew best. One of those people was none other than Rob Pelinka who was Kobe's agent for many years. Pelinka is now the general manager of the Los Angeles Lakers and up until Kobe's death, the two remained in touch.

During Pelinka's speech, he revealed that Kobe was texting him just moments prior to the helicopter accident. In true Kobe fashion, the Lakers legend was looking to help out a friend with an internship. Kobe wanted to know if Pelinka knew any baseball agents his friend could potentially intern with.

In that sense, Snoop is like millions of other basketball fans who looked up to Kobe as he made his way through the league, eventually winning five championships. While it’s sad that Kobe and Gianna are no longer here, yesterday was a true celebration of their lives. It may have been hard to swallow, but the entire event was beautiful as thousands came together for one cause.

Today, LeBron James took to Instagram where he offered up a tribute of his own. In the post below, James shares the date, February 24th or 2/24.

LeBron James has been a leader on the Lakers this season and has helped his teammates deal with the death of a mentor. Kobe loved the Lakers organization and the players loved him back. While it must be difficult to continue on with the season, the players have handled it with dignity and grace.

As we head towards the playoffs, it looks like the Lakers are setting themselves up for a deep run that will surely make Kobe proud.

Kobe Bryant's passing is something that many people have yet to come to terms with. It's hard to put into words just how much he meant to not just the basketball community but the world as a whole. What makes his death more shocking, is that it was alongside his 13-year-old daughter and seven other people. Their lives were lost way too soon and it's hard to fathom how the families are coping right now. Today, a memorial for Kobe and Gianna was held at the Staples Center and it featured some touching tributes.

Near the end of the event, Kobe's former teammate, Shaq, got up on stage to tell some stories about their time playing together. Shaq told a particularly hilarious story in which he had to confront Kobe for not passing. When Shaq said "there is no I in team," Kobe clapped back and said, "I know but there's a 'M-E' in that motha fucka."

Kobe Bryant's tragic death has left the basketball world in shock. Bryant was killed in a helicopter crash alongside his daughter and seven other victims. In the aftermath of Bryant's death, thousands of fans have made the trek to Staples Center where they left flowers, basketballs, and balloons in Kobe and Gianna's honor. While these tributes are beautiful, it was made apparent by Staples Center President Lee Zeidman that they wouldn't be able to stay there. In fact, the entire memorial in front of Staples was cleaned up on Monday.

The tributes won't be forgotten, however, according to the Associated Press, Kobe's wife, Vanessa, would be receiving many of the items left at the memorial. In fact, some other family members will also be given items. Zeidman recently took to Twitter where he gave a detailed look at what was cleaned up, including 1353 basketballs.
