I've got no issue with those rings.. I've got issue with her selling Kobe's HS state championship ring, his old HS gear, etc. Even if he technically gave it to them at some point... He clearly doesn't want her to sell them now. I'm not a parent yet, but if I were living in the house my kid bought for me, and had received millions from him.. I'd be decent enough to not sell his stuff if he changed his mind and wanted to keep it. Legally owned or not blah, blah.. They are family and she should listen to her son.
ADDING: I'm sure there's a lot that we'll never know, nor do I care to know, and I'm guessing Kobe has probably been a prick about something in all this. It still leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. He's bought her a house(s), he offered to buy her another house.. He wants to keep irreplaceable items from his youth. There's NO EXCUSE for her to sell at this point.. What, does he need to pay his own mom off, match Goldin's payment? Great parenting lesson there huh?
