[花邊] Kobe: 若我是KD 我會留在雷霆

來源: FadeAwayWorld 網址: https://tinyurl.com/y5pd6mfj Kobe Bryant Says He Would Have Stayed In OKC If He Were Kevin Durant Kobe Bryant說若他是KD的話，他會留在雷霆 Staying where you are, and not quitting despite the hardships, is hard for anybody to do. Taking the easy way out is an all-too-familiar strategy nowadays. For Kobe Bryant, he was the last of a dying breed — in that, he stayed loyal to a franchise even when it was sometimes easier for him to just go somewhere else. 留在原處，僅管困難重重，但是仍不放棄，這種事情對誰來說都很難做到。而如今，找個 簡單省力的解決方式似乎是大家都會選的方式。但是對於Kobe Bryant來說，他是現今僅存 的少數人--儘管看起來找個別的地方去都比較容易時，他還是忠於原本球隊。 Compare that situation to the one with Finals MVP Kevin Durant, and the contrast is clear. Instead of staying with the Thunder, to lead them through the grind of a Championship, he jumped ship to the team that beat him, to the team that proved they did not need him. 相較於去年FMVP的Kevin Durant，這就有很明顯的差別了。沒選擇留在雷霆，繼續率領他 們突破難關拿到冠軍，KD直接加入打敗他的隊伍，加入一支證明他們不需要KD的球隊。 Bryant talked about Durant’s decision to an audience via TheLeapTV: Kobe在TheLeapTV上講到KD那時候的決定: 影片支援: https://youtu.be/T5-vgyEbtPU “If you’re doing something that’s so easy, you might want to reconsider what you’re doing… Durant’s been a friend of mine for a long time…would I make the same decision? No. I would have stayed.” 「如果你只想找個簡單的工作做，那或許你得要重新考慮要不要換工作了...Durant跟我是 朋友已經是很長的時間...若是我，我會跟他做一樣的選擇嗎? 不，我會選擇留下來。」 For anyone that knows anything about Kobe, his words are not all that surprising. If anything, Durant’s move to Golden State has been considered weak and desperate by many in the community. There has not been a time in NBA History when a player as good as Durant has had a roster around him capable of winning the Chip by themselves. It was seen a defining moment for the All-NBA talent. 了解Kobe的人就會對於Kobe這番話沒那麼大驚小怪，KD選擇加入勇士這舉動被圈內很多人 視為是懦弱的表現。在NBA史上沒有發生過像KD這樣好的球員，光他旁邊的隊友就可以拿下 冠軍這種事情。 Kobe, meanwhile, has always been the epitome of a world-class work ethic. Whatever it takes, whatever the difficulty, Bryant was going to work to get what he wanted — and was not one who fancied quitting in favor of an easier path. 相反的，Kobe一直都被認為是有著頂尖工作倫理觀的人。不管要花多少精力，不管有多困 難，他就是想辦法努力去做到--他不是那種只想著放棄，只會挑簡單的方式做的人。 Guys like Kobe are becoming increasingly rare in the NBA, as the league’s new player empowerment movement is giving athletes an incentive to forgo loyalty to their teams. 在NBA界裡，像Kobe這樣的人越來越少，因為聯盟裡一些新世代的球員權力的關係，讓這些 球員有更多的動機不再對他們的球隊忠誠。 Kevin Durant enters free agency this summer, and he will have to decide if he wants to take a more challenging path, or continue the one that he has laid out for himself so far. Nobody knows what his decision will be, though it is probably safe to assume what Kobe’s would be. KD今年夏天會投入FA市場，他到底會選擇哪一條路，是更具挑戰性的，還是繼續選擇他目 前已經鋪好的坦途呢? 沒人知道他會選擇哪一條，不過去猜Kobe會選擇怎樣的路應該是比 較容易的。 -- KD: KD才不懦弱 -- 標題 [公告] NBA 板 開始舉辦樂透! 4、雙十 = 兩隊四節打完107比107進入延長賽 開獎結果: 雙十 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 61.222.1.181 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1559095786.A.38A.html
