洛杉磯湖人隊明星科比·布萊恩特週日宣佈本賽季後退役。這是他在NBA的第20個賽季。
“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,” Bryant wrote in a poem titled “Dear Basketball.” “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.
“你給予一個6歲男孩一個湖人的夢，爲此我永遠愛你。但我無法忘乎所以地繼續愛你，”布萊恩特在他的一首詩《親愛的籃球》裏這樣寫道。“這個賽季是我最後的付出。我的心可以承受那狂跳。我的意志可以承受那煎熬。但我的身體知道，到了說再見的時候
“And that’s OK. I’m ready to let you go.”
“沒有關係。我已準備好放手讓你走。”
