試翻了一篇Reddit的文章，是以Kobe籃球營的教練視角出發，來推廣一下我偶像的敬業態
度。

Remembering Kobe: Stories from coaching at Kobe Camp
回憶Kobe: 自Kobe籃球營教練的親述故事
I'm not sure where the best place would be to post this, but I wanted to share
a couple stories with anyone else who had ever met Kobe, seen him play, or fe
lt inspired by him:
不知道這篇文貼在哪最好，但我想和任何曾遇見過Kobe，看過他打球，或被他啟發過的人
分享幾個故事。

I had the privilege of being a coach at Kobe’s basketball camp every summer f
or five years in a row. A lot of players have branded summer camps, but Kobe w
asn't a guy who would put his name on the camp logo, show up once, and cash hi
s check...he would show up daily - sometimes for the 8am greeting to address t
he 700+ kids in the gym - and was a constant presence throughout the week.
我有幸連續五年擔任夏季Kobe籃球營的教練。許多球員利用這樣的機會來打造自身品牌，
但Kobe不是那種會把名字掛在籃球營商標上，現身一次，然後就結束領錢的人。他真願意
每天早到-有時候是八點一早就和體育館內700位以上的孩童們應對和招呼-然後他當週人
都會在現場。

He’d interrupt drills to make sure 8-year olds were running the triangle offe
nse properly. He’d walk through team practices pulling kids aside to give the
m tips on their jab step. One time I saw him tell a kid “that was a lazy pass
” and for the rest of the week the kid passed the ball so hard his teammates
could barely catch it.
他會介入跑籃來確保8歲小孩們有好好的跑三角進攻。他會走進團練，把某個小孩拉出來
一旁來指導刺探步技巧。有次我看到他對某個小孩說 “你那傳球太懶散了”，從此之後
一周內，這小孩便傳得超用力，連隊友也幾乎接不住。
The younger kids wouldn’t hear a word he said, they were in shock that an act
ual God was speaking to them. But you could see in some of the older kids eyes
that any time Kobe was nearby, something switched. They moved a little quicke
r, played a little harder, like some higher level had just been found.
營裡的小孩童們一般聽不進他說的任何一字，畢竟他們處在一個 “神” 真的在自己面前
說話的驚訝中。但你可以從一些較年長小的孩子們察覺，每當Kobe經過時，他們眼神總是
一亮。他們會加速，更賣地打球，彷彿置身在一個更強的層級。
One year at camp I had a 10-year-old Japanese girl on my team who didn’t spea
k a word of English, yet still was the only person on the team to grasp the co
ncept of 'help defense.' Kobe was walking by one afternoon, saw her take a per
fect charge, and got so excited he ran on to the court to give her a high five
DURING the game. He stayed and cheered for her the rest of the game (she ende
d up taking at least 20 more charges that week, was the biggest hustler on the
team and got awarded "best defense" for our division. She also couldn't stop
smiling and saying "Kobe high-fived me!" after that day).
有年，我隊上有個10歲的日本女孩，一句英文都不會講，但她是隊上唯一一個努力想搞懂
“協防”這概念的人。有天下午Kobe經過，看到她做了對方一個漂亮的進攻犯規。比賽
還在進行中喔，他興奮的照樣衝進場跟這小女孩擊掌。之後他留下來把這場比賽看完，繼
續幫小女孩加油。(小女孩最後做了至少20次以上的進攻犯規，是整場隊上最拼命的人，
也贏了一個我這小組的最佳防守獎。那天之後，她總不斷的笑著說 “Kobe跟我擊掌了”)
Another year I saw him get challenged by a gangly young white kid who walked s
traight up to him and said “Bet you can’t beat me, I’m the WHITE Mamba.” L
ater that day while speaking to the entire crowd of kids in the gym, Kobe call
ed that boy out to center court. He played him one-on-one and with all 700+ ca
mpers watching, beat the kid 5-0.
另一年，我看到有個在混的白人小孩直接走到面前找Kobe單挑，還嗆 “來打賭阿，你打
不贏我啦，我可是白曼巴耶”。當天後來，在體育館裡對所有小孩談話的時候，Kobe把那
小孩叫到場中央，在700個小孩面前一打一，然後5比0把他打敗。
Then one year, after the kids had gone to bed, a few of us were shooting aroun
d in the gym with Kobe. The side door opened and we saw Lil Bow Wow walk in, u
nannounced, with a backpack full of cash (no idea why he was there, the camp w
as in Santa Barbara). He threw out a challenge, he wanted to play Kobe 1-on-1
for a thousand dollars. Kobe let Bow Wow start the game up 10-0, then proceede
d to play harder than anyone I’ve ever seen at ANY level. It didn’t look lik
e he was playing one-on-one with the 5’7” rapper of ‘Shortie Like Mine’ -
it felt like he was playing for a championship. Kobe scored 11 straight points
, took the stack of cash, turned to us coaches and said “give this to my peop
le.” I got handed $100 and immediately bought new Kobes.
還有一年，在小孩們都散場去休息後，我們幾個人在體育館裡和Kobe練投籃。側門打開，
便看到Lil Bow Wow(饒舌手歌)帶著一整袋錢走進來，完全沒事先告知 (我們夏令營在聖
塔芭芭拉，對於他為甚麼現身完全不解)。他表明了是要找Kobe單挑，賭注是$1000美金。
Kobe讓Bow Wow先攻，先得10分就贏。然後Kobe開始打超狠，比我見過他所有的單挑都凶
狠。這看起來完全不像是在打一個唱 ‘Shortie Like Mine’ 的1米7饒舌歌手，這根本
像是在打他的冠軍賽。Kobe連得11分，拿走整疊現金，轉向我們教練組說“自己人把這錢
分了吧”。我拿了$100塊，趕緊就去買了雙新的Kobe戰靴。
(註:Youtube找的到影片，據說Bow Wow是以單挑之名，行捐款之實)
The last year of camp we had our photo session, coaches each got their own pic
with Kobe. I could tell he was tired from the day-long photo shoot when he ya
wned and said “wassup b” as I walked over. I said “man we’ve been getting
the same photo for five years, can we mix it up?” hoping I could find a way t
o get a laugh out of this overworked exhausted dude who gave so much to the ca
mp every year. He chuckled and said “let’s do it” then immediately cocked h
is head to the side, crossed his eyes, and as if he hadn't done enough already
, made everyone in the room burst out laughing. To this day it makes me smile
every time I see it.
最後一年的訓練營我們有團照時間，教練組每位都能和Kobe獨拍。我經過他身邊，聽到他
邊哈欠邊招呼 “衝蝦?”，完全看的出來他拍一整天下來已經累了。我就說 “老兄，一
樣的照片我們已經照五年了，(這次)可以隨便亂拍嗎?” 我心裡是希望把這位在籃球營超
時工作，每年都把自己累癱的老兄逗笑。他笑了一聲，說 “好啊 來吧”，隨即把他的頭
歪向一邊，裝鬥雞眼，自己好像還做不膩一樣，把整場人都逗笑了。直到今天，每次看到
這相片我仍然會笑。

Between the moments of hanging with him on the sidelines, listening to his Q&A
sessions, and watching how he interacted with kids on a daily basis you could
tell this guy had some crazy fire that drove him to not only be better on and
off the court, but make everyone around him better too. That’s a pretty amaz
ing legacy to leave behind and I’m beyond grateful to have been influenced an
d inspired by a man who put so much love in to the world.
Oh, and I still wear those Kobes. Thanks, Bow Wow.
在場邊和他(Kobe)共處的時刻，聽他Q&A的時刻，還有看他每天怎麼與小孩子互動，你可
以感到像是有狂熱的火在驅動他，不只讓自己場上場下的表現更好，也讓他對周遭的人們
如此。身後能留下這樣的功績偉業真的是不可思議，能被一個在世界付出如此多愛的人影
響和啟發，我自己也感激不已。
ꀊ喔還有，我還是有在穿那雙新Kobe戰靴，謝囉Bow Wow。
