'The music stopped': Kobe Bryant remembered on anniversary of death

The basketball world remains in a state mourning over Bryant, his daughter Gianna and the other seven people who climbed aboard a helicopter on a Sunday morning one year ago

Kobe Bryant wasn't in the bubble with the Los Angeles Lakers last October when they won the NBA championship. He wasn't at the All-Star weekend in Chicago where half the players wore his number on their uniforms, the other half wearing his daughter's jersey number. He wasn't there to hear the Basketball Hall of Fame announced that his career was worthy of enshrinement.

Yet his presence was so clearly felt in each of those moments.
