以下是科比退役原稿
Dear Basketball(写给篮球的一封信）
Dear Basketball, 亲爱的篮球，
From the moment 从小时候
I started rolling my dad’s tube socks 我穿着老爸的直筒袜
And shooting imaginary 假装着
Game-winning shots 我在大西部论坛球馆
In the Great Western Forum 投中制胜球的样子
I knew one thing was real: 我就清楚知道一件事情：
I fell in love with you. 我爱上你了。
A love so deep I gave you my all — 我爱你如此之深，已奉献我的所有—切
From my mind & body 从我的思想到我的身体
To my spirit & soul. 从我的精神到我的灵魂
As a six-year-old boy 六岁的我
Deeply in love with you 深深的爱着你
I never saw the end of the tunnel. 我从没想过这段旅程结束时的样子
I only saw myself 我只看到我自己
Running out of one. 在这条路上奔跑
And so I ran. 所以我不停的跑
I ran up and down every court 每场比赛我都不停奔跑
After every loose ball for you. 为争取每一次得到你的机会
You asked for my hustle 你需要我拼尽全力
I gave you my heart 我为你奉上了我的心
Because it came with so much more. 因为这需要的不仅仅是尽力。
I played through the sweat and hurt 我为打球流尽血汗、带着一身伤病
Not because challenge called me 不是因为困难在挑战我
But because YOU called me. 而是因为你在呼唤我
I did everything for YOU 我已经为你做了一切
Because that’s what you do 因为你也是这样对待我
When someone makes you feel as 因为你让我感觉
Alive as you’ve made me feel. 我自己是一个鲜活的人
You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream 你让一个6岁的孩子实现了他的湖人梦
And I’ll always love you for it. 为此我将永远爱你。
But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer. 但是我不能再如此迷恋你了
This season is all I have left to give. 这个赛季是我所能给的仅有的
My heart can take the pounding 我的心还能继续承受各种打击
My mind can handle the grind 我的意志也还能继续坚持下去
But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye. 但我的身体让我知道是时候说再见了
And that’s OK. 这也很好
I’m ready to let you go. 我已经做好准备跟你说再见了
I want you to know now 我现在只是想让你知道
So we both can savor every moment we have left together.
我们俩都可以永远珍藏着彼此一起度过的每一段时光
The good and the bad. 无论是好的，还是坏的
We have given each other 我们已经给了彼此
All that we have. 我们所能给的全部
And we both know, no matter what I do next 我们俩都知道，接下来无论我去做什么
I’ll always be that kid 我都会是那个
With the rolled up socks 穿着老爸的直筒袜
Garbage can in the corner 瞄准角落里的垃圾桶
:05 seconds on the clock 假装进攻时间还有5秒
Ball in my hands. 手里拿着篮球的小孩
5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1 5秒…4秒…3秒…2秒…1秒
Love you always, 一直爱你，
Kobe 科比
虽然是女生 不太看篮球比赛。不太能分得清某些球星。但科比真的是一代人的青春。我还能深刻的记得他说“我见过凌晨四点的洛杉矶” 那个时候 我还在初中。一群男生围着一个手机不断的刷新看直播比分
身边很多兄弟哥们都很爱科比。我好像也收点熏陶。听说他退役的那个晚上。我的空间简直要被刷屏。我也莫名会觉得难过
以此纪念。我们所有人的科比。从此以后的你都是限量版❤️
