※ 引述《Proakis (John G. Proakis)》之銘言：
: By Proakis
: Los Angeles, Mar. 31 — Kobe Bryant, sitting beneath five championship banners
: and accompanied by dozens of friends, teammates and other admirers, announced
: his retirement from the NBA this morning, saying he could no longer muster the
Kobe,這個擁有5個冠軍且有著數十個球隊朋友還有其他眾多球迷的男人
在今天早上宣布退休 他表示他不再有那精神力來支撐第16個球季: mental energy to play a 16th season
.
: "Mentally, I'm exhausted," he said at a Staples Center news conference
: attended by NBA Commissioner David Stern, Los Angeles Lakers owner Jerry Buss
: and more than 800 journalists from around the world
Kobe和史騰以及湖人老闆Buss在Staple Center中心招開著有800名記者的說明會
Kobe表示:在精神上已經累斃了
.
: Sitting near center court in an arena built in large part to accommodate his
: enormous popularity, Bryant spoke quietly, keeping his emotions steadfastly
: in check. Wearing a dark suit, white shirt and gold tie, with his wife
: Vanessa at his side, he flashed his trademark smile only a couple of times
: but never seemed on the verge of tears, either
Kobe穿著黑套裝 白襯衫 金色的領帶
同時他的老婆也和他一起出場
坐在能容納他眾多球迷的球場
Bryant平靜的宣布著並且保持著他心情的穩定
他的臉上很少露出他的招牌微笑但是看起來似乎也沒落淚的樣子
.
: "Physically, I feel great," he said. "But I have to make a judgment in terms
: of the desire, and I can't honestly say that's going to be there every time I
: step into this building. And I've always been sure about that. I don't want
: to fool myself going into a situation knowing that I'm not 100 percent
: challenged mentally. ... This is a perfect time for me to walk away from the
: game. I'm at peace with that
."
: Bryant said he essentially reached his decision after last season and
: informed Buss at the time. He said Buss urged him to reconsider,
: but Bryant said he never came close to playing again
布萊恩表示:他本來打算下個球季結束退休
並且在打算的當時就已告知Buss
他說:老板勸他重新考慮 但是布萊恩最後說:他下個球季不會再出現了
.
: President Obama urged Americans to "take a day or two to ooh and ahh" over
: the magnificence of Bryant's career, adding: "We admire him, we like him very
: much, and we thank him for years of thrilling exploits. ... In my life, I
: don't know if I ever saw another athlete with such a remarkable set of
: qualities of mind, body and spirit
."
: His winning performances on the court and his winning personality off it
: continued the growth. Now, Stern and other NBA executives are hoping young
: stars such as Yi Jianlian of the Dallas Mavericks, Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma
: City Thunder and Derrick Rose of the Chicago Bulls will step into the void
.
: "This is a very strong league," Stern said. "It's made more strong by Kobe
: Bryant. When Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson retired, everyone said, 'The NBA
: is over.' No one even mentioned Kobe. This is an unforgiving league. You have
: to win. Right now, there are eight to 10 teams that think they'll be the next
: champions of the NBA. That's the sign of a very strong league."
