Michael Jordan broke into tears during his speech in the Kobe and Gianna Bryant memorial service that took place in Staples Center, Los Angeles. And he mentioned that this may create a new “Crying Jordan Meme.”
“Now he’s got me. I’ll have to look at another crying meme for the next…,” Jordan said while the ceremony attendants burst into laughter. It was a reference to the famous “Crying Jordan Meme” that emerged after Jordan cried during his Hall of Fame induction speech.
“I told my wife I’m not going to do this because I don’t want to see this in the next years,” Jordan then added. “That’s what Kobe Bryant does to me. I’m pretty sure Vanessa and his friends can all same the same thing. He knows how to get to you in a way that affects you personally. Even though he’s being a pain in the ass. He always… you had a sense of love for him in a way that he can bring out the best in you. And he did that for me.”
“As I got to know him, I wanted to be the best big brother that I could be.”
