“He looked to me and said, ‘When you do that on Dwight Howard,
you can come talk to me,'” Nance Jr. said following Wednesday’s practice
at the Lakers’ facility in El Segundo. “I said, ‘Hands up, white flag,
you win. I got to get somebody better before I come talk to you.'”

在對戰公鹿賽後採訪，湖人新秀 Larry Nance Jr.表示，Kobe 給了他很大的激勵，

“他當時看著我說，‘等你在 Dwight Howard 頭上灌籃，再來跟我說。’”

“而我則告訴他，‘我投降，你贏了，我下回得找個更強的人。’”

"They love him here. It is a little bit past love. It would be like
the biggest thing ever in basketball here,” Marbury told Yahoo Sports
in a recent phone interview. “It would be beyond huge. Beyond big.
I would definitely encourage it. …

Stephon Marbury 在接受Yahoo Sports採訪時表示非常鼓勵 Kobe 來中國打球，

“這裡的人們愛他，而且已經有點超越愛了。（如果 Kobe 來中國打球）那將會
成為這裡的籃球史上最重大的事件。”

“那將會超越偉大，我肯定會鼓勵。”


“I try to tell people that it's not easy playing here because you are
always on the court playing,” Marbury told Yahoo Sports. “You still got to
put the ball in the hole. You still got to [succeed]. Guys say, 'Oh, it's not
competition.' It's not the competition in the NBA, but it's still competition.

“我努力告訴人們在這裡打球並不容易，因為你畢竟是在球場上比賽，”

“你還是必須把球投進籃框，你還是必須取得成功。人們說，噢，
(CBA)不像NBA那麼競爭，但同樣也是競爭。”


“You still have a defense trying to stop you, and they're really trying
to stop you because they know you are one of the best players. It's basically
how it is at home [for stars].”

“你依然會面對努力阻擋你的防守，而且對手真的會努力防守你，因為他們知道
你是最好的球員之一。對球星而言，這是最基本的。”


Marbury 並表示不後悔沒再回NBA，"Playing in the NBA was easy,”

但他的個性太強，而在CBA可以做自己，

“I give my vision [in China]. I give my thoughts. I am honest
and I am real with what's real."

“我有自己的觀點，我的想法，誠實地做我自己。”

"I want to play until my body tells me to stop,”

“我想打球直到我的身體告訴我無法再打為止。”
