Hi, I’m Gilbert Arenas and this is my story。
Hi,我是吉尔伯特·阿里纳斯,这是我的故事。
When I entered the NBA,
当我刚进入NBA,
the first 40 games of my career I sat on the bench,
职业生涯的前40场比赛,我是在板凳上度过的。
They said I was gonna play zero minutes.
他们说我要把板凳坐穿,
You know I just think they didn’t see the talent that I had.
我想,他们根本没看到我的天赋。
They thought I was a zero.
他们觉得我就是个0,一无是处。
Instead of sitting there being bitter, I just practiced, practiced.
但是我并没有坐在那里怨天尤人,而是不断地训练、训练。
If no one believes in you, anything you do is a positive.
在没有人相信你的时候,你的任何努力都会为自己加分。
It wasn’t even about basketball any more,
这已经不是我能否打好篮球的问题了,
It was about proving them wrong,
而是我要证明他们是错的。
Now the reason I wear No. 0 is because it lets me know that I need to go out there and fight every day.
现在我仍然穿着0号球衣,因为我告诫自己每天都要努力。
