曼巴精神：科比自传读书赏析 读后感(3)篇

在后面贴一下科比宣布退役的告白信。(后面有中文翻译)

Dear Basketball,

From the moment

I started rolling my dad’s tube socks

And shooting imaginary

Game-winning shots

In the Great Western Forum

I knew one thing was real:

I fell in love with you.

A love so deep I gave you my all —

From my mind & body

To my spirit & soul.

As a six-year-old boy

Deeply in love with you

I never saw the end of the tunnel.

I only saw myself

Running out of one.

And so I ran.

I ran up and down every court

After every loose ball for you.

You asked for my hustle

I gave you my heart

Because it came with so much more.

I played through the sweat and hurt

Not because challenge called me

But because YOU called me.

I did everything for YOU

Because that’s what you do

When someone makes you feel as

Alive as you’ve made me feel.

You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream

And I’ll always love you for it.

But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer.

This season is all I have left to give.

My heart can take the pounding

My mind can handle the grind

But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.

And that’s OK.

I’m ready to let you go.

I want you to know now

So we both can savor every moment we have left together.

The good and the bad.

We have given each other

All that we have.

And we both know, no matter what I do next

I’ll always be that kid

With the rolled up socks

Garbage can in the corner

:05 seconds on the clock

Ball in my hands.

5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1

Love you always,

Kobe

亲爱的篮球，

从我团起老爸的球袜，

想象着在论坛球馆射入终场绝杀的那刻起，

我便对此深信不疑：

我爱上了你。

爱得如此彻底，

我把我——从思想到肉体，

从精神到灵魂——全部献给你。

作为一个深爱着你的六岁孩童。

我望不穿隧道尽头，

我只看到，

向尽头奔跑的自己。

我奔跑。

在球场上，

为了地板球上跳下窜。

你既催我拼搏，

我便奉上全心，

只因篮球对我意味着太多。

汗水为伍，伤痛为伴，

不因挑战在召唤，

更源于你的呼唤。

我为你付出所有，

因为你，

让我感受到生命的脉搏。

我爱你，

是你，把湖人梦扎根于那六岁男孩心里。

但这一刻，我终于也难以继续着迷下去。

在这最后一季，

我将余热倾尽。

我的心脏可以顶住冲击，

我的精神可以承受磨难，

但无奈身体很诚实：是时候，说再见。

没关系，没关系。

我已决定放下。

只愿你能明了，

如此，我们才能尽情享受剩下的每一秒。

（回忆）无所谓好坏，

既然早已彼此坦诚相待。 

于是我们才会明白，

不管剧情如何发展，

我将永保初心不改。

父亲的袜子团在手中，

垃圾桶静静立于角落，

计时器只剩最后五秒，

皮球，紧握。

5…4…3…2…1……

永远爱你的，

科比

曼巴精神

建议，这本书应该买纸质版。大量的高清图，拿手机看，的确不过瘾。这样的书，相比阅读而言，收藏价值更高。

里面的文章多是短篇，更像是科比接受采访时的即兴演讲，我和皮尔斯的故事、我和加内特的故事、我和艾弗森的故事、我和邓肯的故事。固然都是亲笔写的，但是…… 阅读体验实在说不上太好。

科比作为篮球运动员，可以说是史上最出色的分位之一。拥有堪称完美的职业生涯，虽然收尾略微惨淡，但比起被甩卖的老将，还是幸运许多了。起码没有晚节不保。不过作为作者的科比，我实在很难给予太高的评价。

从我开始打篮球到现在，十来年，经历了姚明退役、加内特、艾弗森、邓肯、科比。每当有一人退役，都有人感叹一声，我的青春结束了。

我有时也会有这种感觉，因为当年看着飞翔的人，现在都大步走向油腻中年男子了。

但我想的是，我的青春结束，不是因为某人退役。而是因为我不再打篮球。

当然，科比的曼巴精神，不仅仅是体现在球场之上。

祝好，这些年和我唇枪舌战的科密们。
