永遠的黑曼巴 Kobe Bryant 🏀
Even if you’re not a basketball fan, you’d have to be living under a rock not to know who Kobe Bryant is. Michael Jordan may be the GOAT, but Kobe, also known by the nickname Black Mamba, is almost as famous.
即使你不迷籃球，你也一定得要與世隔絕，才可能沒聽過柯比布萊恩。麥可喬登是史上最偉大的籃球員，但綽號黑曼巴的柯比也是不分軒輊。
Born in Philadephia, Kobe spent a lot of his childhood in Italy, where his father, Joe Bryant, played professional basketball after retiring from the NBA. Returning to the U.S. fluent in Italian—and basketball—at the age of 13, Kobe played so well in high school that he was drafted into the NBA straight out of high school.
柯比出生於費城，父親喬布萊恩從 NBA 退休之後就一直在義大利打職籃，所以他童年時期幾乎都待在義大利。13 歲時，柯比帶著一口流利的義大利語跟籃球技術返回美國。由於他在高中籃球打得非常好，在高中就直接被選入 NBA。
Kobe joined the Los Angeles Lakers as a shooting guard in 1996, and would stay with the team for his entire 20-season career. And what a career it was! During that time, he led the Lakers to five NBA championships, played in 18 All-Star games, was a 15-time member of the All-NBA Team, a 12-time member of the All-Defensive Team, 2008 NBA MVP, and two-time NBA Finals MVP winner. He even won two gold medals as a member of the U.S. national team in the 2008 and 2012 Summer Olympics.
柯比在 1996 年加入洛杉磯湖人隊，擔任得分後衛，整個 20 年職業生涯皆效力於湖人隊。真是了不起！這段期間他帶領湖人隊拿下 5 次 NBA 總冠軍，入選 18 場全明星賽，15 次 NBA 最佳陣容，12 次最佳防守陣容，2008 年 NBA MVP，2 次 NBA 總決賽 MVP 得主。他甚至分別在 2008 年與 2012 年的夏季奧運中，以美國國家代表隊的成員贏得兩次奧運金牌。
After a series of injuries, Kobe decided to retire from the NBA in 2016 at the age of 36. But Kobe didn’t just spend his retirement playing golf. He kept busy writing books, making films and teaching his daughter Gianna, also a talented basketball player, to follow in his footsteps. And then, on January 26, 2020, tragedy struck. The helicopter that Kobe and Gianna were flying in—along with six family friends—crashed on the way to a basketball game, killing everyone on board. Kobe was 41-years-old, and his daughter just 13.
經歷一連串的職業傷害後，柯比決定在 36 歲，也就是 2016 年，從 NBA退役。不過，柯比退役之後不是只打高爾夫球而已。他忙著出書、拍片，並教育跟他同樣是天才球員的女兒吉安娜跟上他的腳步。接著在 2020 年 1 月 26 日，悲劇發生。柯比、吉安娜，連同 6 位家人朋友，搭乘前往籃球比賽的直升機墜毀，無人生還。當時柯比 41 歲，他的女兒年僅 13 歲。

NBA ALL STAR GAME 波鞋大戰
The Philadelphia 76ers will take any win they can get against the Orlando Magic, even an ugly one.
Allen Iverson scored 20 points, including a free throw with 2.9 seconds left, leading the Sixers to a 99-98 victory over the Magic on Friday night.
Philadelphia had lost nine of its last 10 against the Magic, including two in a row this season.
"I was so mad at halftime with the way they played the last few minutes, but they responded,'' Sixers coach Larry Brown said. "I'm frustrated with what they did at the end of the game, but I'm pleased to get a win.''
Derrick Coleman added a season-high 22 points and Eric Snow had 17, including four free throws in the final minute for Philadelphia, which has won two straight since the All-Star break.
Tracy McGrady had 37 points, including a game-tying 3-pointer with 8.7 seconds left, and Mike Miller added a season-high 33 for Orlando.
The Magic have lost seven of nine.
"All of the losses are tough,'' McGrady said. "This is a loss that really hurts because this is a team we thought we could come in and get a win.''
After McGrady's 3 over Aaron McKie tied it at 98, Iverson was fouled by Darrell Armstrong as he drove to the basket.
Iverson hit his first free throw, but missed the second. Miller got the rebound, but threw the ball out of bounds while trying to pass it.
Iverson asked Brown whether he should purposely miss the second attempt, but tried to make it after a discussion with the coaches.
"I was trying not to settle for a jump shot,'' Iverson said. "I wanted to get a layup and I got fouled.''
Iverson's right foot was bothering him after the game, but it didn't appear too serious.
McGrady, the NBA's leading scorer, has at least 30 points in 11 of his last 13 games. McGrady, among the first four players chosen Thursday for the 2004 U.S. Olympic team, shot 11-for-26, including 4-for-6 from 3-point range.
Miller, coming off a four-point performance in Thursday night's 98-88 loss at Detroit, was 13-for-21, including 5-for-8 from beyond the arc.
"Every loss is frustrating,'' Miller said. "It's hard to put one of these behind us.''
Orlando, which trailed most of the fourth quarter, got to 92-91 on a 3-pointer by Miller with 1:28 left. After McKie scored on a driving layup, Miller's layup with 24.9 seconds left cut it to 94-93.
Snow made two free throws, giving the Sixers a 96-93 lead. But McGrady made a pair to cut Orlando's deficit to one. After Snow hit two more free throws, McGrady nailed the game-tying 3.
Iverson shot just 8-for-22, but added seven rebounds.
Orlando, already without Grant Hill (ankle injury), didn't have forward Shawn Kemp for the third straight game. Kemp missed two games after he was suspended without pay Tuesday for violating the NBA's anti-drug policy for the third time. He was reinstated Friday, but wasn't able to join the team in time to play. Kemp is expected to return for Sunday's game in Toronto.
The Sixers took their biggest lead, 49-37, following a 15-5 run in the second quarter. Snow began the spurt with a turnaround jumper, and added a 3-pointer _ his third in 20 attempts this season _ that made it 43-35. Iverson had a jumper and driving layup before Keith Van Horn capped the run with a layup.
Orlando then scored seven straight, sparked by a 3-pointer from Miller. A free throw by Jacque Vaughn got the Magic to 51-47 at halftime.
The Sixers outrebounded Orlando 49-29.
