龟龟:如果以后再有人叫我Westbrick,我会出来制止
“I think, for one, 100% stand behind my wife and how she’s feeling because it
’s not about just this year. Right now, she’s reached a point and my family ha
s reached a point where it’s really weighing on them and its very unfortunate j
ust for me personally because this is just a game. This not end all be all. When
it comes to basketball, I don’t mind the criticism of missing and making shot.
But the moment it becomes where my name is getting shamed, it becomes an issue.
I’ve kind of let it go in the past because it never really bothered me."
龟龟:首先我想,你们都知道我100%支持我的妻子以及她的感受,因为这不仅仅是发生在今
年赛季。现在,她已经到了一个临界点,我的家人已经到了一个真正让他们感到压力的临界
点,这对我个人来说非常不幸,因为这只是场篮球比赛。这还不是生活的全部。谈到篮球比
赛,我并不介意对我投篮选择或者出手没能命中的批评,但当有人借此想侮辱我的名字,那
就成了一个问题。过去我总是想着随它去吧,因为它从不曾让我心烦。
"It really hit me the other day. Me and wife were at the teacher-parent conferen
ce for my son. And the teacher told me, Noah is so proud of his last name, he wr
ites it everywhere, he tells everyone ‘I’m Westbrook’… I kind of sat there i
n shock and it hit me. I can’t no longer allow people, for example, Westbrick t
o me is now shaming, shaming my name and my legacy for my kid. It’s a name that
means more to me, my wife, my mom, my dad, the ones that paved the way for me."
龟龟:前几天这件事真的触动到我,我和妻子参加了我儿子的家长会。老师告诉我,Noah为
自己的姓氏感到非常自豪,他会在任何地方,任何东西上写上自己的姓氏,他告诉大家我姓
Westbrook……我有点震惊地坐在那里,这触动到了我。我不能再允许别人,例如用Westbri
ck来侮辱我的姓氏。我的姓氏是我留给我孩子的遗产,不仅是对我,对我的妻子,我的父母
和那些为我开辟道路的人们来说,都有更为深刻的意义。
"That’s just one example myself and my wife where its not great and I think a l
ot of times, I let it slide, but now its time to put a stop to that, and put it
on notice, there’s a difference. Every time I hear it now, I will make sure I a
ddress it and nip that in the bud… It’s very unfortunate, it’s been like this
for my entire career. I’ve been blessed and super thankful for the ones around
me and the ones that support me but it’s really the shaming of my name, the sh
aming of my character, the shaming of who am I as a person, is to me, not warran
te. I haven’t done anything to anyone, I haven’t hurt anyone. I’ve done noth
ing but play basketball a way that people may not like. And this is just a game.
This not my entire life. I think that is the ultimate thing that’s been for me
…"
龟龟:这只是影响我和我妻子的一个例子,这是不对的,我想过很多次,我过去都一笑而过
,但现在是时候制止这种行为,并且引起人们的注意,我的篮球生涯和生活是不同的。现在
我每次参加记者会都会强调这一点,我会确保我解决它并将它扼杀在萌芽状态......很不幸
的是,这种声音充斥着我的整个职业生涯,我很感激我周围的人和支持我的人,但是对我人
格上的侮辱,对我姓氏的侮辱,对我性格上的侮辱,我认为没有必要。我没有对任何人做任
何事,我没有伤害任何人。除了我打球的风格人们可能不喜欢之外,我什么也没做。这只是
场篮球比赛,这不是我全部的生活,而我认为生活对我来说是最重要的事情……
