下面來看看最經典的科比最后一站吧！趕快來學習吧！ Kobe Bryant: Don’t want Jazz to take it easy at all inmy final game 科比談最后一戰：望爵士打出水準 方能盡興告別 導讀：科比退役，估計將是2016年世界體壇影響力最大的事件之一，甚至在某種意義上不遜于未來的歐洲杯、奧運會。職業生涯20年，科比的標志性超越了體育明星，成為橫跨整個時代的旗幟人物?？票忍毺氐膫€性和經歷，奠定了自己特別的歷史地位，也注定難有后來人繼承他的衣缽。 The next time Lakers icon Kobe Bryantappears on the Staples Center court, it will be for the final game of his NBAcareer.
當湖人隊球員科比·布萊恩特再次站在斯臺普斯中心球場的時候，那將是他NBA職業生涯的最后一場比賽。 Has Bryant looked forward to thatfinal game, April 13 against the Utah Jazz, and imagined what it will be like? 科比是否期待4月13日與猶他爵士的比賽?他對此有無設想? "I try not to do it toomuch," Bryant said Wednesday night, "and just make yourselfemotional." 科比在周三晚上接受采訪時表示，“我會以平常心面對這場比賽，讓自己盡情發揮，不留遺憾?！?/div> He added: "Just showing up andplaying. Showing up and playing and hoping my body feels pretty damn good and Ican get up and down the floor and run freely and play this game at the highestle*el of competition one more time." 此外，科比還補充道：“其實和平常一樣，就是上場，之后打球。除此之外，我還希望那天身體狀態能夠極佳，這樣我就能夠在球場上自由奔跑，最后一次以最高的競技水準打完這一場比賽?！?/div> His preparation for that final game,he said, will remain the same. 科比表示對最后一戰的準備與從前無異，終歸是一如既往地投入比賽。 "I won’tallow it to be any different," said Bryant, 37, who is retiring after 20NBA seasons. "One more time and go through same routine. Same group ofpeople. One more time." 37歲的科比即將在度過其職業生涯的第20個NBA賽季之后退出舞臺，對此他表示：“其實也沒有什么不同，不過還是在賽場上走常規，和同樣的一批人，再來一次，僅此而已?！?/div> Could Bryant imagine a perfect sort ofending? For some Lakers fans, a fitting ending would be Bryant hitting agame-winning shot. He wouldn’t mind that outcome, buthe wishes for a different send-off. 科比設想過某種完美的結局嗎?對于許多湖人球迷來說，最完美的結局莫過于科比命中絕殺一球。但科比沒有那么設想過，但他也希望有一個別開生面的告別方式。 "Yeah, win a championship,"he said, "but that’s not happening, so there yougo. That’s done. The dream’sdone. Dream’s done. For me, it’scoming out and playing in front of the fans and competing hard and playingagainst Utah, and them not taking it easy at all. They beat us by like 40 thelast few times we played them. So I expect them to come and try to do the samething. “當然，若能贏得總冠軍當然是再好不過的了，”科比說道，“但那已經不太可能發生了，那個夢已經結束了。對我來說，在所有球迷面前出場打球，努力與猶他對抗廝殺就是我應該做的。他們可沒那么好對付。上一次我們交手輸了40多分，這一次比賽我也希望他們能夠一如既往，發揮應有的水平?！?/div> "To me, that is the greatest formof competition. That’s best last game you can ha*e -- a*ery competiti*e one, a physical one. That’s the waybasketball should be. In terms of the end, I don’tknow, man. I really don’t think about that that much; Ijust like the game itself." “對我來說，最棒的送別方式就是場上競爭，這是你能經歷的最精彩的最后一戰——一場球技與體力的較量，這也是打籃球應有的樣子。在告別方面，我沒有什么計劃，我真沒想那么多，我希望就像比賽本身那樣順其自然就好?！?/div> He’s not surewhat his emotions will be that night. 其實，就連科比本人也不知道他在最后這場戰役中會持有怎樣的情緒。 "When the time comes, you ne*erknow," Bryant said. "I might be sitting here with tears flowing outof my eyes. I doubt it, but it could happen. I don’tknow. We’ll see." “只有當那個時刻來臨時，你才會知道屆時的感受，”科比說道，“我也許會坐在那里，任由眼淚流淌。我不知道，也許真的會那樣，到時候就知道了。” Fans’ emotionswere high during Wednesday’s penultimate home game, andBryant could sense it. He checked out in the final minute of the 9*1 loss tothe Los Angeles Clippers to a roaring standing o*ation, with fans chanting hisname as loudly and for as long as they ha*e at any point this season. 在周三倒數第二場主場比賽時，科比能感覺到球迷們頗為高漲的情緒，在與洛杉磯快船比賽的最后一分鐘，球迷們紛紛起立鼓掌致意，他們盡量大聲且長久地呼喊著他的名字，比這個賽季任何時候都要響亮悠長。 "This is the next-to-last gamee*er in this building. It’s pretty crazy," saidBryant, who scored a game-high 17 points on 6-of-19 shooting in nearly 28minutes. "So I certainly can feel it. As soon as you run out at the startof the game, I could feel it." “下一場在這里的比賽就是在這座球館的最后一戰了，想想覺得太不可思議了，”科比說道，在與快船的比賽中他出場28分鐘，19投6中，得到全場最高的17分?！氨荣愰_始的哨聲響起，你在球場上奔跑，那一刻，所有的感覺就都來了。” Added Bryant: "I can feel it, andit feels pretty damn awesome. Going through the years of losing and not lea*ingthe Lakers makes it all worthwhile standing here and taking the good with thebad and the fans embracing that and understanding that we ride together. That’s a lo*e that you can’t break." 此外，科比還說道：“我能感受到，這感覺簡直太酷了。一路走來，我經歷了無數失敗，但我依舊沒有離開這支球隊。站在這里，經歷一切起伏、感受球迷的擁抱，讓我明白我們始終都在一起。這就是無法阻斷的熱愛，這讓我覺得一切*價值?！?/div>
