[McMenamin] New story: The Kobe Bryant statue has a few errors etched into its marble base that have been identified and will be corrected in the near future, according to a team spokesperson
“There are several errors in the etched marble base of the statue, including Jose Calderon’s and Von Wafer’s names misspelled in the replica box score from Bryant’s 81-point game between the Lakers and Toronto Raptors and a formatting mistake on another side of the base where Bryant’s career accomplishments are listed.”

That’s straight up embarrassing. Just doing a proof-reading of the statue ahead of time would have caught these errors and yet it went through (presumably) multiple sign-offs before getting created. SMDH

Yeah those of us who went to see the statue up close knew this already. I had a to do a double-take on some of those names to make sure I wasn’t seeing things. Hopefully it doesn’t take too much to correct those.

The statue just epitomizes the state of the franchise. They had all the time in the world to make the right choices and do things the right way, and instead they yet again went for the rush job throw shit together route
