? ? ? 今天對NBA來說是個值得紀(jì)念的日子，勇士打破公牛的記錄賽季73勝，庫里又一次打破他的賽季三分球記錄，MVP+得分王+搶斷王，但是這些本應(yīng)引起關(guān)注的記錄在他的面前全部黯然失色。他就是科比·布萊恩特，他今天就要退役了。
? ? ? 朋友圈比比賽精彩的多，一夜之間幾乎所有的人都變成了科密，無論男女平時看不看NBA都掛上了科比的圖，大部分人都在關(guān)注科比的最后一戰(zhàn)，議論他的60分，在說科比與自己的青春。

Dear Basketball,
From the moment
I started rolling my dad’s tube socks
And shooting imaginary
Game-winning shots
In the Great Western Forum
I knew one thing was real:
I fell in love with you.
A love so deep I gave you my all —
From my mind & body
To my spirit & soul.
As a six-year-old boy
Deeply in love with you
I never saw the end of the tunnel.
I only saw myself
Running out of one.
And so I ran.
I ran up and down every court
After every loose ball for you.
You asked for my hustle
I gave you my heart
Because it came with so much more.
I played through the sweat and hurt
Not because challenge called me
But because you called me.
I did everything for you
Because that’s what you do
When someone makes you feel as
Alive as you’ve made me feel.
You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream
And I’ll always love you for it.
But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer.
This season is all I have left to give.
My heart can take the pounding
My mind can handle the grind
But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.
And that’s OK.
I’m ready to let you go.
I want you to know now
So we both can savor every moment we have left together.
The good and the bad.
We have given each other
All that we have.
And we both know, no matter what I do next
I’ll always be that kid
With the rolled up socks
Garbage can in the corner
:05 seconds on the clock
Ball in my hands.
5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1
Love you always,
Kobe
? ? 短短幾句話，飽含著科比對籃球無比的熱愛。喜歡打球的朋友應(yīng)該最能體會，這是怎樣的一種熱愛啊。原諒我直接粘貼了原文，我認(rèn)為所有的翻譯都是對其中感情的褻瀆。
? ? ?科比從最初受傷時的不甘，一步步走到現(xiàn)在的釋然，平靜的享受每一場比賽，我相信雖然無法再打NBA，但他一定是幸福的。因?yàn)樗褜⑺簧詈玫臅r光全部奉獻(xiàn)給了他所熱愛的籃球，能為自己的夢想竭盡全力并取得成就是多么幸福的一件事情。
? ? ?科比已經(jīng)退役了，但是NBA里面還有許多像科比一樣熱愛籃球的球員們，還有你們喜歡的球星，他們有著和科比一樣的精神與信念，他們都愿意為其所熱愛的籃球事業(yè)傾其所有。我認(rèn)為這才是NBA最吸引人的地方，這才應(yīng)該是球星吸引你們的地方。
? ? ?最后，不要再懷念你們的青春了，科比都放下了，抓緊去為你們熱愛的事業(yè)努力奮斗吧。愿我們每一個人垂垂老矣時，都能像科比一樣充滿驕傲的說，"我已經(jīng)為我所熱愛的事業(yè)付出了所有，離開的沒有遺憾。"
? ? 個人拙見，希望能幫到你。
