杜蘭特沒(méi)想好退役后做什么

"This game, your craft, you have to continue studying it," said Durant. "No matter how much you enjoy it, nobody wants to be in school that long. I know I don't. At some point, you have to be ready to graduate. Thirty-five, that's just a number in my mind."

“從事籃球這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)，你仍然要繼續(xù)打磨自己的技術(shù)，”杜蘭特說(shuō)，“不論你多么享受比賽，都沒(méi)有人想一直學(xué)下去。反正我不想。到了某個(gè)時(shí)刻，你要做好畢業(yè)的準(zhǔn)備。我認(rèn)為，我會(huì)在35歲退役。”

Durant explained why he's not chasing the mark.

杜蘭特解釋為什么紀(jì)錄并不重要。

"Because it's not about [the record]," Durant said. "I can leave the game knowing I did everything I wanted to do, my way, on my terms. That's how I want to leave the game. And if I happen to have all these accolades and these accomplishments, then that's cool. If not, I'm still cool.

“這和紀(jì)錄無(wú)關(guān)，”杜蘭特說(shuō)，“當(dāng)我覺(jué)得用我的方式，我的方法，完成了我想做的事情，我就會(huì)離開(kāi)。這就是我要離開(kāi)的方式。如果我碰巧完成了一些目標(biāo)，那會(huì)很好。如果沒(méi)有，那也沒(méi)事。”

 

"So I don't think that's going to define me as a player. It's a cool accomplishment to be up there with the greats and to be considered someone who can potentially chase that, or beat that, but I'm not playing for that."

所以我不覺(jué)得記錄會(huì)定義我是一名怎樣的球員，和偉大的球員相提并論是很酷的容易，被認(rèn)為有潛力追上或超過(guò)前輩，這很酷，但我不是為了這些而打球的。

"I don't know. I don't know what I'm going to do," he said. "That's the beauty. I'd hate to say, 'Man, I don't want to do this, do that' when I'm done playing. I don't know. I don't know if I'm going to still be in love with the game and want to be around it every day. Who knows? I might want to be a coach or a GM or an owner or somebody that works guys out or somebody that's trying to tell basketball stories like Kobe (Bryant). Who knows?

“我不知道，”杜蘭特說(shuō)，“但未知才有了美感。我不知道我到時(shí)候?qū)@球還有多少熱愛(ài)，還愿不愿意每天和籃球打交道。誰(shuí)知道呢?我可能想做教練或者經(jīng)理，或者去當(dāng)訓(xùn)練師，也可能像科比一樣去講述一些籃球的故事。誰(shuí)知道呢?”

"I feel like I have options. I'm young, I'm still learning life and about basketball. I have a whole life ahead of me that I'm excited about, and I thank basketball for opening up so many doors for me."

“我覺(jué)得我有很多選擇。我還年輕，還在學(xué)習(xí)。我對(duì)以后的生活很激動(dòng)，我感激籃球提供給了我這么多的選擇。”
