Pardon my language, man, but damn, excuse me, pardon me, sorry. Tonight, I don’t just step into the Hall of Fame. I carry with me the echoes of every voice that ever told me I couldn’t. I walk with the shadows of every alley, every cracked court, every empty plate. I stand for the dreamers, the doubted, the dismissed, for every soul still trapped in the places I broke free from, from Red Hook to Myrtle Avenue.
We didn’t grow up with guarantees. We grew up with grit. We didn’t have much, but we had dreams. And, if you were lucky, you had someone telling you not to give up on them. But more often, what we heard was ‘that ain’t for you.’ Don’t aim too high. Melo, stay in your lane. Well, I had to build a new road. I had to write a different ending. When you grow up in the shadows, you have to get swallowed by them, or you learn how to shine. To every kid watching, I want you to hear me loud: you are not
your zip code, you are not your last name, you are not your setbacks. You are your vision. You are your work ethic. You are your will. You are the quiet whisper inside that says, I know there’s more for me in this life. Hold on to that voice. It will be tested. The dogs is barking. Dogs is barking. Dogs is barking. (Audience dog bark, laughter, Carmelo repeats for emphasis) They would tell you it’s foolish. They would laugh at your belief. But let me tell you: they laughed at me too.
To my father, here’s where the tears come: Carmelo Iriarte, you left this world too soon, but you’ve never left me. Your name is my name. Your spirit walks with me in every step I take. You were a poet, an activist, a fighter. You told me without even knowing that words matter, that vision matters. Even in your absence, you gave me strength and, in the silence, you gave me purpose. Though I didn’t get to grow with you, I grew because of you. You gave me the first example of what it means to carry fire
and still speak with grace. Your blood runs in mine. Your dream lives through me. This Hall of Fame jacket that I receive, I’m not wearing it tonight, I wear it for the both of us.
To my sister, Michelle Anthony: you have been my protector, my voice of reason, my anchor in every storm. In this world, sometimes you just need one person to see you before anyone else does. You were that person. You believed in me when I didn’t even know how to believe in myself. You loved me without conditions, and you held this family together with strength that no stat sheet can measure. You are Hall of Fame in every sense of the word, sis. This honor is yours, too. To Puerto Rico, my blood, my
soul, my heart. I carry the flag in my heart. I carry the island in my veins. When I wore those colors on my chest, I wasn’t just playing basketball. I was honoring the heritage. I was honoring my father. I was honoring every Puerto Rican who’s ever had to fight twice as hard to get as far. Puerto Rico, you gave me fire, you gave me soul, you gave me home. We are proud. We are powerful. We are present. This Hall of Fame moment belongs to the island. It belongs to us.
To my brothers, Justin and Wilford, my real ones, who held me down when the world turned its back. When the critics got loud, you got louder with your love. You reminded me who I was, with every text, every call, every laugh. We made it. To every father, and this is important, to every man listening: you are more than your mistakes. You are more than what this world has to reduce you to. Being present, being real, being vulnerable. That’s strength. Raising children in this world is revolutionary. I
didn’t just want to be a basketball player. I wanted to be a model of redemption, of accountability, of love. My kids saved me. They gave me a reason to move past ego, past noise, past criticism. They reminded me that legacy isn’t what you leave behind, it’s what you lift up.
I’ve been cheered, criticized. They called me a scorer who couldn’t win. They said I was too loyal, and they said I wasn’t loyal enough. But they didn’t know what it feels like to carry the weight of whole cities, to lace up your sneakers while the world is dissecting your soul. They never saw the lonely nights, the aching knees, the silent battles. But I kept going. I kept shooting and I kept believing, not because I had all the answers, but because I had a why. My why was bigger than me. My why
was every kid in the hood who ever thought greatness wasn’t for them. My why was my son, who would watch and would see if his father would fold or fight.
To my real ones, my real friends: Kenny, Munch, Draper, Bay, Tyler, you weren’t just part of this journey. You were my foundation. When the cameras were off, when the critics were loud, when the weight was heavy, you were there. You reminded me who I was when the world tried to rewrite my story. You gave me laughter in the darkest seasons. You gave me silence when I needed peace. You gave me honesty, love, loyalty when the world gave me noise. This honor belongs to us, because without your presence,
your truth, your belief, I don’t get here. Y’all never chased the spotlight, but I need the world to know you were the light behind mine.
To Syracuse, one year, one championship, one spark that changed everything. You gave me my first shot at belief on a national stage, and I gave you my whole heart. To the Denver Nuggets: in the city of Denver, you believed in me first. You gave me your keys as a 19-year-old kid. You let me grow, fall, fly, and become the man standing here today. Denver was where I learned the weight of the league, where I learned the value of sacrifice and the beauty of team. To the New York Knicks: New York, you were
my dream, my fire, my heartbeat. Madison Square Garden wasn’t just a building; it was my soul’s home. I carried your energy, your grit, your unbreakable spirit. Even in the losses, you taught me what it means to fight for something bigger than yourself. Once a Knick, always a Knick.
To the game of basketball: you were my way out, but more than that, you were my way in. You let me tell my story without words. You let me cry through jumpers, shout through dunks, dream through wins. You gave a kid from the projects a passport to the world. You gave my pain purpose, you gave my past a future. I never got an NBA ring, and some will always define me by that. But I know what I gave to the game. To my mother, Mary Anthony: you taught me that love is action, sacrifice is quiet, and faith is
letting go of fear. You are the reason I’m standing here. The sacrifices you made, the tears you held back, I felt it every time. You are my hero.
To every woman who’s held us together: I owe everything to the strength of women, to the women who raised us, who loved us through our mistakes, who believed in us before the world saw our potential. I stand here because of you. To the single mothers pulling double shifts, to the grandmothers who prayed us through the nights… you are the backbone. To my son Kiyan and daughter Genesis: struggle doesn’t mean surrender. Keep pushing, keep dreaming. Daddy’s watching. We in the hall now, champ, and we
just getting started. When in doubt, stay Melo. Peace.

抱歉我要讲句粗话——靠。不好意思，失礼了。
今晚，我不只是踏进名人堂。
我肩上背着那些曾经对我说“你不行”的声音回响。
我走过每一条黑暗的巷弄、每一个裂痕累累的球场、还有那些没饭吃的日子。
我代表着做梦的人、被怀疑的人、被忽视的人，
也代表着那些依然困在我曾经挣脱过的地方的灵魂——
从 Red Hook（布鲁克林的艰困社区）到
Myrtle Avenue（布鲁克林一带著名的街道，象征贫穷与挣扎）。
我们成长的环境，没有任何保证。
我们靠的是韧性、是硬撑下来的勇气。
我们没有太多东西，但我们有梦想。
如果幸运一点，身边会有人告诉你：别放弃。
但更多时候，我们听到的是：
“那不属于你。”
“别想太多。”
“Melo，安分一点。”
可是，我得自己去开一条新的路。
我得亲手写一个不同的结局。
当你在阴影里长大，你不是被它吞噬，就是学会自己发光。
对每一个正在看着我的孩子，我要你们听清楚：
你不是你的邮递区号，不是你的姓氏，不是你的挫折。
你就是你的愿景。
你就是你的努力。
你就是你的意志。
你就是那个藏在心里的声音：
“我知道，这一生还有更大的舞台在等我。”
抓紧那个声音。因为它一定会被考验。
*汪*（现场有狗叫）
狗会对着你狂吠。
他们会说你很傻，
他们会嘲笑你的信念。
但我告诉你：当初他们也笑过我。
献给我的父亲——接下来可能会有点催泪
Carmelo Iriarte，你离开这个世界太早，但你从来没有离开过我。
你的名字就是我的名字。
你的灵魂陪着我走过每一步。
你是诗人，是行动者，是战士。
你让我明白，言语有重量，愿景有意义——即使你自己可能没有意识到。
即使你不在身边，你依然给了我力量；在沉默之中，你给了我使命。
虽然我没能和你一起成长，但我能成长，全是因为你。
你给了我第一个榜样：什么叫做怀抱烈火，却依然能用优雅的方式说话。
你的血流在我体内，
你的梦想透过我继续延续。
今晚我领受这件名人堂的外套，我不是只为自己穿上，而是为我们两个人一起穿上。
献给我的姐姐，Michelle Anthony：
你一直是我的守护者、我的理性之声、在每一场风暴里稳住我的锚。
在这个世界上，有时候你只需要一个人——在所有人之前先看见你。
你就是那个人。
当我连自己都不知道该怎么相信自己的时候，你相信了我。
你给我的爱没有条件，你用一种数据表永远无法衡量的力量，维系著这个家。
姐，你本身就是名人堂的典范。这份荣耀，也属于你。
献给波多黎各——我的血脉、我的灵魂、我的心脏。
我把国旗藏在心里，把这座岛屿流进血管。
当我把那身颜色穿在胸前，我不只是打篮球。
我是在向传承致敬。
我是在向父亲致敬。
我是在向每一位必须付出双倍努力才能走到这里的波多黎各人致敬。
波多黎各，你给了我火焰，你给了我灵魂，你给了我一个家。
我们骄傲，我们强大，我们存在于此。
这个名人堂的时刻，属于整个岛屿。
属于我们所有人。
献给我的兄弟们，Justin 和 Wilford，我的真兄弟，
在这个世界转过身不理我的时候，你们一直支持着我。
当批评声音越来越大，你们用爱让声音更响亮。
每一则短信、每一次通话、每一声笑声，你们都提醒我：我到底是谁。
我们做到了。
献给每一位父亲——这很重要，也献给每一位在听的男人：
你们不只是你们的错误。
你们不只是这个世界试图把你们简化成的样子。
真诚地存在、真实地生活、勇于脆弱——那才是真正的力量。
在这个世界抚养孩子，本身就是一场革命。
我不只是想成为一名篮球员。
我想成为一个榜样——象征救赎、负责任与爱。
我的孩子救了我。
他们给了我理由，
让我跨越自我、跨越噪音、跨越批评。
他们提醒我：传承不只是你留下什么，而是你能扶起什么。
有人为我喝采，也有人批评我。
他们说我只是个得分手，
却赢不了比赛。
他们说我太忠诚，也说我不够忠诚。（大笑）
但他们不知道背负整座城市重量是什么感觉，不知道在全世界都在剖析你灵魂的时候，
还要穿上球鞋上场是什么滋味。
他们没看到那些孤单的夜晚、酸痛的膝盖、无声的战斗。
但我没有停下来。
我继续投篮，继续相信，不是因为我有所有答案，而是因为我有理由。
我的理由，比我自己还要重要。
我的理由，是每一个在贫民区长大的孩子，他们曾以为伟大不是属于自己的。
我的理由，是我的儿子——他会看着我，看看爸爸会选择退缩，还是选择奋战。
献给我的挚友，我的真朋友们：Kenny、Munch、Draper、Bay、Tyler，
你们不只是我旅程中的一部分，
你们是我的根基。
当镜头关掉，当批评声音喧嚣，当重担压得我喘不过气，你们一直在那里。
当世界想改写我的故事时，你们提醒我，我到底是谁。
在最黑暗的时刻，你们给我欢笑。
当我需要宁静，你们给我安静。
当世界充斥噪音，你们给我诚实、
爱与忠诚。
这份荣耀属于我们。
没有你们的陪伴、真诚与信念，
我不可能走到今天。
你们从不追逐聚光灯，但我希望全世界知道，你们就是照亮我背后的光。
献给 雪城大学）
一年、一座冠军、
一个改变一切的火花。
你给了我第一次在全国舞台上相信自己的机会，而我也把整颗心都交给了你。
献给丹佛金块队：
在丹佛这座城市，你们最先相信我。
你们把钥匙交给一个19岁的小孩，
让我成长、跌倒、飞翔，
成为今天站在这里的男人。
在丹佛，我学会了联盟的重量，
学会了牺牲的价值，
也体会了团队的美丽。
献给纽约尼克队：
纽约，你是我的梦想，
我的火焰，我的心跳。
麦迪逊广场花园不只是一栋建筑，
它是我灵魂的家。
我带着你们的能量、
韧性和不屈不挠的精神。
即使在失败中，你们也教会我，
为比自己更大的事物而战是什么意思。
一旦成为尼克，永远是尼克。
献给篮球这项运动：
你曾是我的出口，但更重要的是，
你也是我的入口。
你让我不用语言就能讲述我的故事。
你让我透过跳投哭泣、透过灌篮呐喊、透过胜利去做梦。
你给了一个来自贫民区的孩子
通往世界的护照。
你让我的痛苦有了意义，
让我的过去有了未来。
我从未拿到过 NBA 冠军戒指，有些人会一直用这点来定义我。
但我知道，我为这项运动付出了什么。
献给我的母亲，Mary Anthony：
你教会我，爱是行动、
牺牲是默默的，信念是放下恐惧。
你是我站在这里的原因。
你所付出的牺牲、你忍住的泪水，
我每一次都感受得到。
你是我的英雄。
献给每一位把我们撑起来的女性：
我的一切都要归功于女性的力量，归功于那些养育我们、在我们犯错时依然爱我们、
在世界还没看到我们潜力之前就相信我们的女性。
我今天能站在这里，全是因为你们。
献给那些单亲妈妈，辛苦付出双份努力；
献给那些熬夜为我们祈祷的祖母……你们是家庭的脊梁。
献给我的儿子 Kiyan 和女儿 Genesis：
挣扎不代表放弃。
继续努力，继续做梦。
爸爸在看着你们。
我们现在站在名人堂里，伙伴们，
我们才刚开始。
当有你充满疑惑时，
Stay Melo ，Peace。
