最后告别|乔丹含泪缅怀科比发言全文

迈克尔乔丹在追悼会上发表讲话，这是自2009年乔丹入选名人堂以来首次在公开场合流泪。

With tears streaming down his face, Michael Jordan paid tribute to his “brother” Kobe Bryant in a Monday memorial service.

Jordan's complete speech

"I would say good morning, but it's afternoon. I'm grateful to Vanessa and the Bryant family for the opportunity to speak today.

"I'm grateful to be here to honor Gigi and celebrate the gifts that Kobe gave us all – what he accomplished as a basketball player, as a businessman, and a storyteller and as a father. In the game of basketball, in life, as a parent – Kobe left nothing in the tank. He left it all on the floor.

“我很感激布莱恩特家族今天给我发言的机会，我很感激自己能在这里缅怀科比和Gigi。科比有很多身份，球员，商人，故事的诉说者，还有父亲。无论是在篮球比赛中，还是在生活中为人父母，科比都倾其所有，作为一名父亲，他把所有责任都承担在自己身上，一步一步向前进。

"Maybe it surprised people that Kobe and I were very close friends. But we were very close friends. Kobe was my dear friend. He was like a little brother. Everyone always wanted to talk about the comparisons between he and I. I just wanted to talk about Kobe.

    也许让大家感到惊讶的是我和科比是好朋友，我和科比是真正的好朋友，科比和我无比亲近就像是我的弟弟一样。大家总是去拿我们俩作比较，我只想谈谈科比本身。”

"You know all of us have brothers and sisters, little brothers, little sisters, who for whatever reason always tend to get in your stuff, your closet, your shoes, everything. It was a nuisance – if I can say that word – but that nuisance turned into love over a period of time. Just because the admiration that they have for you as big brothers or big sisters, the questions in wanting to know every little detail about life that they were about to embark on.

“你知道，我们都有哥哥姐姐弟弟妹妹，无论如何，他们都会给你依靠，给你衣服，给你鞋子，给你所有的一切，这种情感纽带无法用语言来形容，但维系这种纽带的东西就是爱，是他们作为大哥哥大姐姐对你的爱。但问题是，他想要知道我生活中的每一个细节。

"He used to call me, text me, 11:30, 2:30, 3 o'clock in the morning, talking about post-up moves, footwork, and sometimes, the triangle. At first, it was an aggravation. But then it turned into a certain passion. This kid had passion like you would never know. It's an amazing thing about passion. 

他总是问我或是给我发短信，从11：30一直到凌晨2：30，问我关于假动作、训练的问题，而有的时候是关于三角进攻。在一开始，这是一种负担，但是到后来这转变为一种激情。这个孩子有着你从未见识过的激情。”

If you love something, if you have a strong passion for something, you would go to the extreme to try to understand or try to get it. Either ice cream, Cokes, hamburgers, whatever you have a love for. If you have to walk, you would go get it. If you have to beg someone, you would go get it.

那样的激情太令人难以置信，如果你爱某样东西，你对某件事情充满激情，你就会变得极端，然后去试图达到目标，清楚自己为此到底要付出什么。冰淇淋，可乐，汉堡包，所有这些你喜欢的东西，你需要自己去争取，也许你要向别人祈求才能得到。

"What Kobe Bryant was to me was the inspiration that someone truly cared about the way either I played the game or the way that he wanted to play the game. He wanted to be the best basketball player that he could be. And as I got to know him, I wanted to be the best big brother that I could be.

科比-布莱恩特对我的启发，就是他是一个真正关心我吃了什么、我以什么方式比赛的人，然后他也想做到这些，他想要成为世界上最好的运动员，而我想要成为最好的兄长。

"To do that, you have to put up with the aggravation, the late-night calls, or the dumb questions. I took great pride as I got to know Kobe Bryant that he was just trying to be a better person – a better basketball player. We talked about business, we talked about family, we talked about everything. And he was just trying to be a better person.

为了做到这一点，你需要背负很多东西，比如那些深夜打来的电话。我们总是说，他想要成为最好的球员，他想要成为最好的商人，他想要成为最好的家长，我们谈论了他的所有事情，而他想要做的只是想要成为一个更优秀的人。

"Now, he's got me and I'll have to look at another crying meme for the next ... 

现在，我得找找看另一个像我这样哭泣的家伙。

(Lengthy laughter and applause.)

"I told my wife I wasn't gonna do this cause I didn't want to see that for the next three or four years. That is what Kobe Bryant does to me. 

我告诉我的妻子我不打算这样做，因为我不想在未来的三四年看到这段视频。这就是科比对我做的好事。

I'm pretty sure Vanessa and his friends all can say the same thing – he knows how to get to you in a way that affects you personally, even though he's being a pain in the ass. But you have a sense of love for him and the way that he can bring out the best in you. And he did that for me. 

我很确定，他的朋友们都能很确定地这么说，他知道影响你，甚至他自己都在感到屁股痛，但是你总是能感受到他对你的爱，他总是会将自己最好的东西呈现给你。他就是这么对我的。

"I remember maybe a couple months ago he sends me a text and he said, 'I'm trying to teach my daughter some moves. And I don't know what I was thinking or what I was working on, but what were you thinking about when you were growing up trying to work on your moves?' I said 'What age?' He says '12'. I said '12, I was trying to play baseball.' He sends me a text back saying 'Laughing my ass off.' And this is at 2 o'clock in the morning.

我至今都记得，几个月前，他给我发了一条消息说：‘我正在尝试教女儿一些动作，然后我不知道她是怎么想的或者说她在为什么而做这些事情。当你在试图进步，努力去成长的时候你在想些什么，你是怎么调整心态的？’我说：‘女儿几岁了？’他说12岁了，我说我12岁的时候还在努力打棒球，然后他就给我发了一条无情嘲笑我的短信，那是凌晨两点发生的事情。

"But the thing about him was we could talk about anything that related to basketball but we could talk about anything that related to life. And we, as we grew up in life, rarely have friends that we can have conversations like that. Well, it's even rarer when you can grow up against adversaries and have conversations like that. 

我们不但能谈论篮球方面的东西，我们还经常讨论生活中的事情。我们是真正的挚友，我们之间经常发生这样的对话。

I went and saw Phil Jackson in 1999, maybe 2000, I don't know, when Phil was here in L.A. And I walk in and Kobe's sitting there.

And the first thing, Kobe said, 'Did you bring your shoes?'

 'No, I wasn't thinking about playing.'

“我记得在1999年还是2000年，当时菲尔-杰克逊执教着湖人，当我到湖人的球馆的时候，我看到科比坐在那儿，然后科比看到我说的第一句话是：‘你带你的球鞋来了吗？’我说不，我来这儿不是来打球的。

But his attitude to compete and play against someone he felt like he could enhance and improve his game, that's what I loved about the kid. I absolutely loved the kid. No matter where he saw me, it was a challenge. And I admired him because his passion, you rarely see someone who is looking and trying to improve each and every day, not just in sports, but as a parent, as a husband. I am inspired by what he's done, and what he's shared with Vanessa, and what he's shared with his kids.

但是他很有竞争的态度，和他想要和那些他觉得能够让他学习进步的人对抗，那是我很欣赏的品质。他看待我的态度是将我看成一个挑战，而我因为他的激情而感到钦佩，他每天都在激励自己做得更好，这太罕见了。他不仅仅是在体育方面，还在为人父母，当为人丈夫方面所做的事，他和瓦妮莎分享的东西，他和他的孩子们分享的东西，让我深受启发。

"I have a daughter who's 30 and I became a grandparent. And I have two twins. I have twins at 6. I can't wait to get home to become a GirlDad and to hug them and to see the love and smiles that they bring to us as parents. He taught me that just by looking at this tonight, looking at how he responded and reacted with the people he actually loved. These are the things that we will continue to learn from Kobe Bryant.

我有一对双胞胎孩子，我还有一个女儿，而她也有小孩了，这让我成为了外公。我迫不及待地想要回家，去当好一个女儿的父亲，去拥抱他们，享受他们带给我的爱和笑容，科比教会了我这些。这些事我们将继续从科比身上学到的东西。我们所有人都应该把握当下，享受每一天，好好陪伴自己所爱的人。”

"To Vanessa, Natalia, Bianka, Capri, my wife and I will keep you close in our hearts and our prayers. We will always be here for you. Always. I also want to offer our condolences and support to all the families affected by this enormous tragedy.

“致瓦妮莎，Natalia，Bianka，Capri，我的妻子，我会永远把你们放在心中，我们会永远在那里为你祈祷，而且我们会为所有遭受这次巨大打击的家庭提供帮助。

"Kobe gave every last ounce of himself to whatever he was doing, After basketball, he showed a creative side to himself that I didn't think any of us knew he had. In retirement, he seemed so happy. He found new passions. And he continued to give back, as a coach, in his community. More importantly, he was an amazing dad, amazing husband, who dedicated himself to his family and who loved his daughters with all his heart. Kobe never left anything on the court. And I think that's what he would want for us to do.

科比无论做什么事情都会用尽自己的每一分力气，退役以后他展现出非常积极的心态，我认为这是我们所有人都不了解他的。在退役后的时光里，他看起来是如此的快乐，他建立了新的激情，而且他继续当教练来回馈他的社区。更重要的是他是一名令人震惊的父亲和丈夫，他将自己奉献给家庭，全身心地爱他的女儿们。科比从来不会在球场上留下任何事情，我想那也是他希望我们做的事情。

"No one knows how much time we have. That's why we must live in the moment, we must enjoy the moment, we must reach and see and spend as much time as we can with our families and friends and the people that we absolutely love. To live in the moment means to enjoy each and every one that we come in contact with. 

没人知道我们有多少时间，因此我们要活在当下，享受每一天，我们要去感受去看望去花更多时间在我们的亲人、朋友、所有我们爱的人身上。活在当下的意思是，享受每一次和别人的联系。

"When Kobe Bryant died, a piece of me died. And as I look in this arena and across the globe, a piece of you died, or else you wouldn't be here. Those are the memories that we have to live with and we learn from. 

当科比去世的时候，我身上的一部分也随之死去了。我们需要从那些活着的回忆中去学习。

"I promise you from this day forward, I will live with the memories of knowing that I had a little brother and I tried to help in every way I could.

"Please, rest in peace little brother. "

我向你们保证，从这天起，我会和我尽全力帮助的小老弟的记忆一起活下去，请安息吧，科比-布莱恩特。”
