湖人隊傳奇巨星科比參與制作的《親愛的籃球》獲得了今年奧斯卡“最佳動畫短片獎”的提名，而剛剛傳來的消息無疑讓科比的粉絲激動-《親愛的籃球》已經(jīng)獲得了本屆奧斯卡最佳動畫短片獎，科比也成為第一個同時獲得專業(yè)體育冠軍和奧斯卡獎的人。

Retired basketball star Kobe Bryant has won five NBA titles, but taking home an Oscar on his first attempt was a bigger thrill than the victories earned with the Los Angeles Lakers, the 39-year-old future Hall of Famer said on Sunday.

退役籃球明星科比.布萊恩特贏得了5次NBA總冠軍，但當(dāng)他首次嘗試獲得奧斯卡獎時，他覺得這比洛杉磯湖人隊獲得勝利更讓人激動。這位39歲的未來名人堂成員周日說。

I feel better than winning the championship, to be honest with you. I swear I do, Bryant told news media backstage after accepting the Academy Award for "Dear Basketball," the animated short film he wrote and produced.

“說實話，我比贏得NBA總冠軍的感覺更好。”《親愛的籃球》獲得奧斯卡獎后，科比對新聞媒體如是說。

To be here right now and to have like ... a sense of validation is ... this is crazy, man, Bryant added. "It’s crazy."

“現(xiàn)在就在這里，然后……，這種感覺難以表達……這太瘋狂了!伙計，這太瘋狂了!。”

Dear Basketball is based on the National Basketball Association great’s 2015 poem, published on the Player’s Tribune website, announcing his final NBA season. Bryant narrated the five-minute film, which was directed by Glen Keane and scored by Oscar winner John Williams.

《親愛的籃球》原本是科比在2015年發(fā)表在球員論壇網(wǎng)站上的國家籃球協(xié)會的一首詩，同時也宣布了這是他的最后一個NBA賽季。科比為這部五分鐘的電影配音，電影由格倫.基恩執(zhí)導(dǎo)，由奧斯卡獎得主約翰.威廉姆斯配樂。

The film shows top moments from Bryant’s career animated in hand-drawn images while he recites the letter about his devotion to the sport from a young age and a body that will no longer allow him to compete at the highest level.

這部電影展示了科比在職業(yè)生涯中最精彩的時刻，在他的手繪畫面中他回憶起他年輕時對體育的熱愛，并描述了自己不能在最高水平上繼續(xù)對抗的身體。

Bryant, who played 20 seasons, has started his own production company in retirement, Kobe Studios. He told news media he sought out Oprah Winfrey and TV producer Shonda Rhimes for guidance when he launched the studio.

科比打了20個賽季，已經(jīng)在退休的創(chuàng)立了自己的制片公司-科比工作室。他告訴新聞媒體，他在創(chuàng)立工作室之初，他曾找到奧普拉.溫弗瑞和電視制作人Shonda Rhimes尋求建議。

Bryant shared his advice for athletes navigating retirement, which can often be daunting, as many are often young and have to fill their time after decades of training and competition.

科比分享了他對退役運動員的建議，這個問題通常是嚴肅的，因為很多人都很年輕，在經(jīng)過幾十年的訓(xùn)練和競爭之后突然閑暇下來，他們必須自己充實自己。

The hardest thing for athletes to do is when you start over, you really have to quiet the ego and you have to ... begin again, Bryant said.

“對于運動員來說，最困難的事情就是當(dāng)你重新開始的時候，你真的要保持自我，你必須……重新開始,”科比說。

You have to be a learner all over again. You have to learn the basics of things, and, you know, that’s really the hardest part.

“你必須重新學(xué)習(xí)。學(xué)習(xí)那些基本的東西，你知道，這是最困難的部分。”
