"Time heals all," James said. "And as devastating and as tragic as it was and still is to all of us involved with it, only time. And it takes time."

"As we approach his one-year anniversary, it saddens our hearts to actually come to the realization that he's gone," Davis said. "I know I still have trouble with it, you still just can't believe it."
The Lakers have said they don't plan a formal tribute to Bryant because they don't want to make the anniversary any harder for the team.
"There's a lot of things that die in this world, but legends never die." James said "And he's exactly that."
