大鯊魚 若科比在40歲復出 將會是體育界最大的新聞
今年休賽期，不少人都在談論科比可能復出一事。早前，奧尼爾在自己的一檔播客節目中再次提及此事。奧尼爾表示，如果科比宣佈復出，那麼外界會爲之轟動，科比將會再次成爲聯盟焦點。
Former teammate Shaquille O'Neal recently chimed in on his show, The Big Podcast with Shaq: "He will never go to the Big 3 before he does the NBA. Everybody knows who Kobe is. You're telling me Kobe can't give somebody a nice 15-20 minutes a game. If you align all the dots and align all the moons and oceans... if he came back at 40 then the announcement would be the biggest sports announcement in history.
科比的昔日隊友沙奎爾·奧尼爾近期在他的節目上聲稱，通過他的博客：“在復出參賽NBA前，科比不會去參加Big3聯賽的。人人都知道科比是誰。你是告訴我科比一場比賽中不能打出15-20分鐘的好球。如果你梳理清那些點點滴滴……如果他40歲時宣佈復出，那將是歷史上最大的體育新聞。But during an appearance on "The Rich Eisen Show," the newly-turned 40-year-old restated he firmly is retired: "There's about a zero percent chance that I come back and play. ing. Done. That's it."
但是參加Rich Eisen秀上，即將年滿40歲的科比重申他不會復出的：“回到賽場，再披戰衣基本再無可能。“不會的。已經結束了。”Never. Here's the thing, for us athletes, it's really hard to transition from that. I was really personal about it when I wrote "Dear Basketball."
不會的。對運動員而言就是這樣,過渡很難。當我寫“親愛的籃球”時，我內心真的是五味雜陳。
That is the true challenge, of finding what comes next. Finding something you love to do every bit as much as you love your first passion.
去找到接下來會想做的事情，這真是一個很大的挑戰。不忘初心，衷於所愛。找到一個如你第一次激情一樣的所愛是很難的。That is a challenge for us. I think unfortunately for us athletes, we've been pigeonholed into thinking that we can only be one thing.
對於我們來說這很具挑戰性。我認爲對運動員很不幸的是外界總把我們想成只能做體育。So when I retired, everybody said, 'OK, he's too competitive. He's not going to know what to do with himself. He's going to have to come back.' I took that as a personal challenge of them thinking I'm this one-dimensional person. That all I know is how to dribble a ball, shoot the ball and play basketball and compete at that level. So I took it as a personal challenge.
所以當我退役時，所有人都說：“好吧，他太好強。他將不知所措。他會復出的。”對於那些認爲我是一成不變的人，我將此作爲個人挑戰。他們認爲我所知道的就是如何運球，投籃，比賽和在NBA的級別上拼搏。所以我將此作爲個人挑戰。I will never come back to the game. Ever. I'm here to show people we can do much more than that. Creating this business, winning an Oscar, winning an Emmy, and an Annie, those are things that are showing athletes that come after, 'No, no. There's more to this thing.' So I would never (return). It's not even a thought."
我將永遠不會再復出了。永遠不會。我來此向人們表明我能做比籃球更多的事業。創辦企業、贏得奧斯卡、贏得艾美獎和安妮獎，這些事情足以向以後退役的運動員表明，“不要擔心，還有更多事可以做。”所以我不會（回去），想都不會想。更多精彩內容請關注微信公衆號、新浪微博：籃球英文堂
