Death is usually a very sad thing
It is a sad thing. Too bad he died. And especially since he was good at basket ball. Lots of people suffer and die of cancer and in accidents. But most of them can't jump as well or toss a ball as well has he did. So this becomes even more tragic and it makes sense to dwell on the loss while we move on regarding the cancer victims.

You mean when he spoke at his memorial and said he and other players have a responsibility to the victim's family? You're just not very good at this, kiddo.

Please include conviction info. Kthx.
He was arrested for bending a nineteen year old over a hotel chair and choking her out while fucking her doggy style. He claimed it was consensual, that he always choked a woman doing that, it was his "thing".
Criminal charges were dropped when during discovery it was shown that the panties she'd worn that day contained semen stains from two different men (including Bryant) and pubic hair NOT from Bryant (ewww). Bryant's attorneys also found out she was taking fairly large amounts of prescription drugs to treat schizophrenia.
The DA's office wouldn't pursue the charges unless she testified about the multiple semen stains. She declined, they dropped criminal charges. She later sued in civil court, they settled out of court. Bryant made a public apology but did not admit criminal wrongdoing.

NTSB report declared that the crash was caused by pilot error.

It's almost always pilot error.
When it happened, I told my friend this exact same thing - pilot error.
However, he was IFR rated and so was the copter, so I don't understand why he wasn't flying IFR. It would have made sense flying into and out of the clouds like he was.
Another factor not listed is called, "get there i tis". Means he was pressured to get there as they had a set time to be at their destination. When under pressure like that, you are bound to make bad decisions.

SOP in most crash determinations baring any indication of mechanical failure. Since the NTSB determined that there wasn't any mechanical reason for the crash it left weather and/or pilot error. In this case it seems that the weather (marginal conditions along flight path), poor decision making by the pilot and spacial disorientation contributed to the incident.
While it may be true that both the copter and the pilot were IFR rated, according to FAA records, the company's pilots were not allowed to fly under IFR. Further, Island Express's Part 135 operating certificate, issued in 1998, limited operations to on-demand VFR-only flights. So even if the pilot wanted to fly IFR neither he nor Island Express were allowed to fly under IFR rules.
Again, poor decision making. What should have happened is at the point where flight conditions became marginal or if there was forewarning that it would become marginal the pilot should have returned to a safe landing zone or ended the flight and told the passengers that continuation was not safely possible. Get there itis should never become an issue despite whether or not passengers, companies, schedules and/or any other factor comes into play.
One of the cardinal rules (written or not) is that YOU, as the pilot/operator of any vehicle, are the final arbiter as to the safe operation of your vehicle.
In the case of the Kobe crash, the NTSB was fully justifiable in determining that pilot error was the chief factor.
