Here’s more via TMZ:

Our sources tell us … a meeting took place this week to discuss where Kobe’s eventual memorial might go down in the coming weeks or even months. People who were in the room say a few venues were considered — some made more sense than others.

Of course, the Staples Center is considered “The House That Kobe Built” — but it only holds around 20,000 people … and judging by the massive response to his death, organizers feel they should be ready for a MUCH larger crowd.

In case you’re wondering, Staples holds between 18 and 20, 000, while the Coliseum holds around 80,000 people. Plus, there there’s surrounding parks in the area that can accommodate many, many more. Hmm, at this point, the coliseum idea is making a lot of sense.
