![KYLE - Forget (feat. Trippie Redd, iann dior & The Drums) [Visualizer]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/RwaMAFErwQo/mqdefault.jpg)
Celtics fan here and I've been a fan of Kyle since he was with the 76ers! Absolute sniper!! RIP to his brother Kirk and the fact that he's still able to produce for the Cavs in the playoffs means a lot
Solomon Kessington Well said, but as a Yankee fan I gotta ask....if you're a Celtics fan what's up with the Aaron Judge pic?
babydickslick hating cavs have nothing to do with respecting the hell out of korver
babydickslick step up your trolling game you spastic imbecile
Solomon Kessington facts i been a fan since he's definitely a good player #dieheart76ersfan
Solomon Kessington yep we want him back now, women in philly damn near rioted when we traded him 😂
Kyle is a solid man, brother, and teammate.
Steve Kim solid? He's a great man, brother, and teammate.
ya
too much alcohol, white college kids...
Rip to his lil bro
fast cash watch yourself your treading on thin ice. Wouldn't wanna see that mouth of yours get caved in saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. This is the net so your protected but im talking about the real world.
fast cash yea... a real fool. Just use the advice and be safe out there ive seen what can happen to folks like yourself. Its all fun n games until you drinking through a straw and your girl gotta wipe your ass cause you cant. Death is no joke and some people keepin it even more real.
too much alcohol, white college kids...
I'd love to see Kyle get a ring this year. For his Brother,family but also I think he deserves plus great guy
Mark O'Dwyer For sure bro
Mark O'Dwyer him winning a ring would be amazing,can imagine him crying dedicating it to his brother
I agree
Agreed that would be awesome
He deserves it. I hate for him to retire without a ring.👏🏼☝🏽🙏🏽❤🏀💯🔥💪
Your brother will always be with you and your family...RIP KIRK
RIP KIRK 🙏🏾
too much alcohol, white college kids...
@@HBOJoeSlaney so? is he supposed to not say RIP?
I really would hate to see Kyle Korver retire without a championship ring. This is more than basketball. May God Continually to Bless and Strengthen Kyle Korver and his family. 🙏🏽☝🏽👏🏼❤🏀💯🔥💪

Winston Bostic warriors blew a 3-1 lead

😥😢😥 My allergies are acting up, much love to the Korver family
I have so much respect for this man. The way he handles the whole situation: respects his parents, expresses his raw emotions in those dark times, gives support to his brothers, all while being a professional and doing his job on the court. Let the peace be with him and his family.
Damn, this got me crying. I wish Kyle wins the ring this year for his lil bro. RIP Kirk.
Djordje Petrovic I WISH DAMN ITS OVER

DETROIT LEEK93 Celtics in 6
I’m sick, because the Celtics should have won.
How 7 people could dislike this video? Heartbreaking, got me crying man! :/
We love you Kyle, be strong!
RIP Kirk Korver
Fernando Jorge Lima his brother died and you thumbs up? Just seems weird to me.
UnderFunded inc. It's better to not put anything at all, you thumb up for his struggle and support. That's just the way I feel it
Fernando Jorge Lima yea CZcams doesn’t really explain how to use the thumb system. I didn’t thumbs up or down. But I guarantee you that’s why there is thumbs down.
My cousin goes to the Korver's church and he said it's the best family he's ever met. Praying for them all. Kirk will be greatly missed.
How can you even function normally after an event like this? It really takes a lot of courage and a strong mind to get back on the court! Hats off to you Kyle. It's inspirational.
On his return game, when he shot that 3 pointer, and he acknowledged the pass, he was going through the toughest time of his life. A lot of us saw that live, but at that point we had no idea what he was going through.
Man I feel bad for him rip and hope him and his family get through this
Our Love & Prayers brother, cavs allday
Love you Korver, your definitely an Hero in our hearts.! Stay strong Big Bro.
Damn ... shed a couple tears just now... I hate seeing good people go thru such pain.. RIP Kirk
What a great man...You deserve to be were you are..Sry for your loss ..
I'm a Celtics fan but when it comes to death there no sides I'm sorry for the pain you and your family going through
Be strong
Rip Kirk 😢
Kyle said it best... losing a loved one reveals what’s really important in life. I lost my father last month to a rare form of brain cancer called Glioblastoma, and since his passing I’ve really began to understand what is important: family. I’m pulling for you brother, you have so many fans that have your back. Keep shooting Kyle.
Kyle Korver inspires me to be a better older brother, I'm gonna stop beating up my little brothers when they act up
Had a similar situation but the doctors said my dad was going to be fine after being administered to the hospital for stomach problems. So we continued forward with our family trip (he was staying behind to look after our rabbit). The next day we get a call to the hotel saying my dad got administered to ICU on life support after getting a superbug in the hospital. A couple days later he passed away. It’s been nearly 10 years to the day. Nobody deserves to go through something like that. I was 12 then and unlike Kyle I didn’t really get to know my dad as I was being a stupid young adolescent kid who only really cared about having fun and hanging out with friends. Your life can flash before your eyes at anytime. I think about what could have been every day and hope I’m making my dad proud. I don’t want to sound corny or anything but I choose to try to remember the good times.. the times of joy, comfort and laughter. In a world full of hate and a world full of heartache, please know there is always something you can smile about. Use it as your motivation to chase what you love and with the right people around you the world is at your hands. May your brother Rest In Peace Kyle and cherish the memories with your brother and keep your family and friends close. Fate hurts but remember to hope cze things change but the memories don’t.
Justin Dminic rip to your dad man 🙏🏽
Jersey Garrow thanks man 💯

The Korvers seem like a great family. Those 2-2 games in that beautiful backyard were probably the most fun. Your brother is an angel now watching over you and your entire beautiful family.

RIP
Mad respect brother. Prayers and love. Go Cavs.
He has been my favorite player for years and to see him so hurt shows me even more that he is a trooper to still return to the playoffs. He has been through a lot and It means a lot to see him back and playing with Kirk in his soul. R.I.P Kirk🙌
Game 5 of the Cavs Celtics series was last night, how am I just hearing about this story now! Wow I honestly can’t believe Korver has been dealing with this, man and to think I have been applauding some of his off shooting nights this series, really makes you think, you never know what someone is going thru, even in the case of an athlete in the lime light where I should’ve known he lost his brother, don’t know how I missed this. Very sad, R.I.P Kirk and Salute Kyle
My heart goes out to Kyle and his family. Awesome family. RESPECT. Go Kyle. Go cavs.
This brought tears to my eyes, loved hearing this and thank you Kyle for being so vulnerable.love this
I DONT EVEN KNOW THIS MAN OR HIS FAMILY, AND MY HEART CRIES OUT FOR THEIR FAMILY!! HEART FELT!!
Gosh I cried watching this... sooo touching. We love you Kyle. R.I.P. Kirk
This is heartbreaking. Much love and prayers to his family and loved ones.
Prayers to his family 🙌🏽🙏🏽
Been a fan of Kyle since Chicago, Atlanta, etc. God bless you brother and your family
I considered Kirk a friend. Whenever I saw him, he always had a smile on his face and could really hoop. Dude will be missed. RIP
He is a good person wish u the best
how he is able to speak on that without bursting out in tears is crazy, he has himself under control like few others
Kyle is the nicest person you will ever meet and I wish the best and I will keep them in my prayers
Touching man...
The Four Brothers forever much love and strength
RIP Kirk! Stay strong Kyle and other brothers, parents, family and friends. Truly a hard loss. But they all seem so strong.
This is why he is hustling and playing hard right now, he's playing with his heart... Rest In Peace Kirk!
God damn this made me cry wtf
Touch my heart so much cause seeing someone you love is gone the next night
Korver is winning a ring this year for his brother. Call me an idiot, call me stupid but I have a weird feeling it’s going to happen.
Very humble guy 🙏🏼 , much respect to him . R.I.P. KIRK ❤️
Bro i cant stop crying its so heart breaking
RIP to his little brother man🙏🏼❤️ and the fact that he still goes out for the Cavs and gives it his all means a lot. May god continue to bless this man and continue to be with his family🙏🏼
Stay strong! Just cannot imagine what you are going through. Prayers for you and your family
Much repect for the korver family. Kyle seems like a very genuine person ,humble and hardworking God bless you all!
This shows us that you have to live everyday loving each other man. Life is too short; when it's your time it's your time. Prayers to korver family.
Man gives heart every step of the way, and I know his brother must of been the same. Sorry for your loss, but you will get to see eachother again some day.

Gotta love Korver, just a class act, and after seeing his family and upbringing It's easy to see why.
losing a loved one is the hardest thing in life to overcome. lost my sister when I was 10 and she was 16. Still hurts to this day 18 years later. Hold your loved ones close.
RIP.....God bless Kyle Korver and his family. Wow
Holy crap the goosebumps... Rest In Peace Kirk Korver 🙏🏻🙏🏻

He's Watching Over yall. RIP kirk.
I'm in tears
I’m sheding a tear heartbreaking.
RIP to your lil Bro Kyle. You'll always be one of my favorite guys...will always be a Sixer! Respect.
Damn man, I wish the best for him and his family. May God be with them.
Me Being A Identical Twin myself & understanding that undescribable bond that Brothers have as close as this, I Could not imagine going through a tragedy such as this, Heart goes out.
Man..so tough to lose someone so young so unexpectedly like that. I can't imagine suddenly losing one of my brothers. My mom passed in 2015 and while it wasn't a total shock it happened unexpectedly fast. I'm so thankful the whole family was able to be there for her when she passed, as tough as it was.
Wow, did not know this story. RIP and wishing Kyle the best.
RIP Kirk Korver 🙏
