Twitter users have begun to report accounts that are sharing memes of Lebron James and his moving speech about Kobe Bryant. Kobe Bryant passed away in a tragic helicopter crash on January 26. While an official tribute for Kobe is scheduled on February 25, the Los Angeles Lakers decided to pay Bryant a tribute before their game with the Portland Trail Blazers last Friday.

Reporting accounts for sharing memes

The ceremony held before the Lakers game featured a video montage of Bryant as well as the national anthem and finally a moving speech by Lebron James. An image of Lebron later started to appear on Twitter and people tried to turn it into a meme.

After the memes came to the notice of several users they started to hit back at the memes and tried to stop people from posting them.
