科比标准退役声明

正式退役声明

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

大意如下：

　　致我最爱的篮球——

　　小时候

　　我穿着爸爸的直筒袜，

　　想象着

　　在西部大论坛球馆

　　投球获胜的样子

　　当时我就真切的知晓：

　　我爱上了你

　　倾其所有地爱上了你

　　我给你我的心灵和身体

　　给你我的精神和灵魂

　　六岁的我

　　深深爱上了你

　　我未曾想过结果

　　只是执着地

　　不断前进

　　不断奋斗

　　我在篮球场挥洒汗水

　　只为争取得到你

　　你告诉我要动作敏捷

　　我将自己的一切全心全意献给你

　　因为你给予我的太多

　　我在汗水伤痛中坚持着

　　并非因为我想挑战自己

　　而是因为你在召唤我

　　我的一切只为你

　　因为你即是如此

　　你被赋予了生命，

　　正如你赋予我生命

　　你成就了一个六岁孩童的湖人梦

　　至此我永远爱你

　　但我无法继续迷恋你

　　我的心能够承受打击

　　我的意志能够战胜煎熬

　　但我的身体知道，该说再见了

　　很好

　　我决定放手

　　现在我想让你知晓

　　这样我们便可珍惜剩下的时光

　　我们都曾带给对方

　　甜蜜和痛楚

　　我们共同拥有

　　你我都明白，不管今后我做什么

　　我依旧是那个

　　穿着老爸的直筒袜

　　瞄准角落里的垃圾罐

　　离进攻时间还有0.05秒

　　手中握着篮球

　　5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1

　　永远爱你的

科比

退役赛后演讲

　Man，Man，guys

　　You know，it’s a…I can’t believe how fast 20 years went by，I mean this is crazy，this is absolutely crazy. And you know to be stand here，at the center court with you guys，my teammates behind me and appreciate all of this，you know the journey we’ve been on，and we’ve been through our ups and we’ve been through our downs. I think the most important part is that we all stayed together

　　throughout.

　　嘿，伙计们，真不敢相信20年过的这么快，这种感觉真的很疯狂，我今天站在这个赛场中央，和你们一起，背后还有我的队友。我非常感恩所有的这一切，感恩我们一起经历的过去，感恩我们经历的胜利和失败，我觉得最重要的是我们一直一直都在一起。

　　I grew up a die-hard，I mean a die-hard laker fan. Die-hard！I mean I knew everything about every play that’s ever played here. So to be drafted and then trained to this organization，and to spent 20 years here，I mean，you can’t write some better than this.

　　我一直以来都是一个铁杆，我的意思是一直都是湖人队的铁杆粉丝，我熟悉在这里打过的每一场比赛，每一件在这里发生的事情。被甄选然后来到这里训练，我这这里度过了20年，我想不到还有比这更好的事情了。（哽咽）

　　And I more proud of the fact the not about the championships，but about the down years. Because we never run，we never run，we played through all that stuff，we got our championships and we did the right way.

　　让我更骄傲的并不是关于夺冠，而是那些艰难的岁月，因为我们没有逃跑，我们从来也没有准备逃跑，我们一起经历了那些艰难的岁月，然后我们做对了，并且重新夺冠。

　　And all I can do here is thank you guys, thank you guys for all the years’ support! Thank you guys for the motivation,！thank you for all the inspiration！

　　我所能做的真的就是感谢，感谢你们这么多年的支持，感谢你们的不离不弃，感谢你们的鼓励！

　　And you know，that was funny，the thing that had me cracking upall night long with the fact that I go through 20 years of everybody is screaming to pass the ball. On last night，they’d like：Don’t pass it，(Ahahah)It’s been absolutely beautiful you guys，I can’t believe it’s comes to an end. You guys will always be in my heart. And I sincerely，sincerely appreciate it，no words can describe how I feel about you guys，and thank you，thank you from the bottom of my heart！guys，I love you guys！I love you guys！

　　你知道，特别好玩儿的是，过去的20年，所有人都在为我的传球呐喊，但是最后一场球的时候他们都和我说：不要传球！不要传球！（投球投球），我觉得这很疯狂，哈哈。这真的是最最美好的东西，伙计们，我真的不敢相信我退役的时刻真的就这么来了，你们将永远在我心中，我非常非常珍惜这份情感，没有语言可以形容你们在我心中的分量，谢谢你们，这是从我内心深处最真诚的感谢!我爱你们！

　　My family，it’s my family，my wife Vanessa，my daughter Natalie and Agina. Thank you guys for all your sacrifice. You know for all the hours I spent in gym working and training. Vanessa，you hold down the family the way that you have. I can’t, there is no way I can thank you enough for that. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you!

　　关于我的家庭，我想说的是，我的太太瓦妮莎，我的女儿娜塔丽，亚吉娜。感谢你们为支持我所付出的所有牺牲，在我必须要工作和训练的时候，是我的太太瓦妮莎承担起了照顾家庭的责任，我实在找不到别的方式表达我对你的感谢，（再次哽咽）所以，只能从我心底，深深的说一句，谢谢你！

　　And what can I say? Mamba out.

　　我还能说什么呢？曼巴谢幕了。
