Kobe Bryant lauds Lakers' aggressive approach in free agency
Kobe对湖人的积极作为感到满意
On Melo:"I just shared with him the experiences that I had playing here in
Los Angeles, how I feel like it could be very beneficial to him and his family
and his legacy going forward," Bryant said. "I mean, this is a legacy-defining
moment. This is the decision."
Kobe:我跟Melo分享了我在湖人打球的感觉,为什么我觉得对他及他的家人还有他的历史
定位是很有帮助的。现在就是决定自己历史定位的时刻。
Bryant said he didn’t have any inside information on Anthony’s choice a few
hours after a New York Daily News report stated that the small forward would
re-sign with the Knicks on Thursday.
Kobe说他没有任何Melo的内线消息。
“Everybody’s here to read tea leaves,” Bryant said. “I don’t really know
much to tell you. I don’t have any new information, information you guys
probably don’t know. You guys will probably know before I do.”
Kobe:大家都想要知道内线,但我真的没有新消息了,大家应该都会比我先知道吧。
Bryant acknowledged he had “really clicked” with Anthony since they were
teammates at the 2008 Olympics and described Anthony as “very receptive” to
his pitch but scoffed at a report that they had played in a pickup game last
weekend at UCLA. Bryant said he was in Orange County at the time.
Kobe说他跟Melo在2008奥运相会时就一拍即合,而且Melo对他的招募非常有兴趣。但Kobe
对于那篇他跟Melo一起在UCLA练球的报导感到非常可笑,因为他那时候在Orange County。
“It seems like if I want to get an accurate sports source now,” Bryant
quipped, “I have to go to TMZ.”
Kobe:看来如果我想要得到最正确的资讯我得去TMZ了。
Does Bryant have a Plan B if the Lakers’ top targets go elsewhere?
有Plan B吗?
“We have several options,” he said. “Obviously, depending on the timing of
this process, it affects some of those. You have a plan that’s flexible, a
Plan A and a Plan B, but some of the Plan B is affected by the timing of Plan
A. … You wind up seeing these things happen where we’re kind of behind a
little bit, but it’s worth the wait.”
Kobe:我们有一些选择,主要是看目前的计画进行到哪一个阶段。Plan B会被Plan A的
进度影响,但是值得等待的。
The Lakers are still without a coach, but Bryant gave Byron Scott a thumbs-up
for the job, calling his former teammate his “rookie mentor” who made
Bryant fetch donuts and run other errands as a young player.
湖人还没有决定总教练,但Kobe对Scott非常满意,他视Scott为新秀时期的导师,因为
Scott在Kobe的新秀年帮助了他很多。
“We’ve had a tremendously close relationship throughout the years,” Bryant
said. “So obviously I know him extremely well, he knows me extremely well
and I’ve always been a fan of his.”
Kobe:我们的关系非常好,所以我们两个非常了解对方,我一直都是他的粉丝。
One issue Bryant apparently has put behind him is the injuries that have
limited him to six games over the last 15 months. He said he weighed 218
pounds, which is normal for late in a season when he had leaned down.
谈到Kobe的健康状况,Kobe说他现在体重是218 pounds,跟他膝盖受伤时的体重差不多。
“Physically, I feel great,” Bryant said. “I mean, I don’t think about the
knee at all when I train. I don’t think about the Achilles’ at all when I
train. I feel sharp, crisp. Now it’s just time to add on from there.”
Kobe:我感觉我的身体非常好,我在训练时完全没有受到膝盖及Achilles的影响,是时候
进一步训练了。
