Kris Humphries Officially Announces Retirement
March 26th 2019 at 4:00pm CST by Luke Adams
Veteran NBA big man Kris Humphries hasn’t appeared in an NBA game since the
2016/17 season and hasn’t shown up on the pages of Hoops Rumors since being
waived by the Sixers in October 2017. However, he had yet to formally
announce his retirement as an NBA player — until now.
自从2016-17赛季后，Kris Humphries就不曾出现在NBA赛场上。
2017年10月被七六人裁掉后，也没有传出他退休的消息，直到今天为止。
“Today, I’m officially retired from the NBA,” Humphries wrote in an
introspective piece for The Players’ Tribune. In the article, which is worth
checking out in full, the 34-year-old says he’s officially walking away from
the game after “13 good years.”
‘今天，我正式从NBA退休了。’
现年34岁的Humphries在《The Players' Tribune》发表文章，
宣布自己在渡过了13年美好时光后正式退休。
The 14th overall pick in the 2004 draft, Humphries appeared in a total of 800
regular season games for the Jazz, Raptors, Mavericks, Nets, Celtics,
Wizards, Suns, and Hawks. For his career, he averaged 6.7 PPG and 5.4 RPG in
17.8 minutes per contest, with his best years coming as a Net from 2010-12.
2004年选秀会上第一轮第14顺位被爵士挑中，生涯打过800场例行赛，
待过爵士、暴龙、小牛、篮网、赛尔提克、巫师、太阳、老鹰。
生涯场均上场17.8分钟，贡献6.7分5.4篮板。
最好成绩是在篮网的2010-2012。
Humphries played in the postseason six times, though he was never part of a
deep playoff run. His best postseason stint came in 2015/16 when he averaged
9.3 PPG and 6.0 RPG in four games (14.0 MPG) for an Atlanta team that
advanced to the second round.
Humphries生涯打过6次季后赛，尽管从来不是季后赛主力轮换阵容。
季后赛最好成绩出现在2015-16，出赛4场，场均上场14分钟，可贡献9.3分6.0篮板。
Of course, as Humphries addresses within his Players’ Tribune article,
outside of NBA circles he was known and recognized primarily for his
relationship with Kim Kardashian, which ended in 2011.
当然，正如Humphries在《The Players' Tribune》上所说的，
在NBA赛场外，他最知名的事蹟主要是在2011年和社交名媛 Kim Kardashian 结婚。
Humphries is the second 34-year-old big man to formally confirm his
retirement from the NBA within the last few days. Al Jefferson was the other.
Humphries是最近几天内第二位正式宣布退休的老将，另一位是Al Jefferson。

节录几段有趣的...
1.
He was my idol, but he was so cool that I got comfortable enough to start
joking around with him in practice. Then, one day, we were laughing about
something, and Rick Carlisle turns to me out of nowhere and goes, “Hey
Humphries, don’t do that.”
Dirk Nowitzki是我的偶像，有一次我在练习中和Dirk开玩笑，
当时Rick Carlisle教练走过来跟我说：“嘿，Humphries，别这样做。”
I said, “Do what, coach?”
我说：‘教练，你指的是啥事？’
He said, “You don’t joke around with Dirk.”
Carlisle：“不要跟Dirk开玩笑。”
I said, “But we’re just … we’re just having fun, Coach.”
我说：‘但...我们只是玩笑啊，教练。’
He said, “No. Dirk has fun. You don’t have fun. You need to focus. Dirk? He
doesn’t even need to practice. He’s f****** Dirk.”
Carlisle：“不，Dirk可以玩笑，你不行，你需要专注。
Dirk？他根本不用训练，他可是TMD的Dirk耶！”
I don’t think I said a word or smiled for about two weeks. It was perfect
advice for me, because they traded me to the Nets that season.
接下来两个礼拜我都没说话也没笑过，然后那个赛季我就被交易到篮网了。
2.
There were so many times when I was in a gas station just buying a water or
something, and the cashier would give me a look, and I could just feel it
coming.
“Hey, are you … That Guy?”
And I’d say, “Ha! Nah, I just look like him.”
Or I’d say, “Nah, I’m Blake Griffin. People get us confused.”
和Kim Kardashian离婚后，有好几次我在加油站买瓶水或啥的时候，
店员看你的眼神好像在说‘嘿，你就是...那家伙吗？’
我会说：“哈，我不是，我只是看起来像他。”
又或者我会说：“不是，我是Blake Griffin啦，大家总是将我们两个搞混。”
