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.

　　退役篮球明星科比.布莱恩特赢得了5次NBA总冠军，但当他首次尝试获得奥斯卡奖时，他觉得这比洛杉矶湖人队获得胜利更让人激动。这位39岁的未来名人堂成员周日说。

　　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.

　　“说实话，我比赢得NBA总冠军的感觉更好。”《亲爱的篮球》获得奥斯卡奖后，科比对新闻媒体如是说。

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

　　“现在就在这里，然后……，这种感觉难以表达……这太疯狂了!伙计，这太疯狂了!。”

　　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.

　　《亲爱的篮球》原本是科比在2015年发表在球员论坛网站上的国家篮球协会的一首诗，同时也宣布了这是他的最后一个NBA赛季。科比为这部五分钟的电影配音，电影由格伦.基恩执导，由奥斯卡奖得主约翰.威廉姆斯配乐。

　　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.

　　这部电影展示了科比在职业生涯中最精彩的时刻，在他的手绘画面中他回忆起他年轻时对体育的热爱，并描述了自己不能在最高水平上继续对抗的身体。

　　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个赛季，已经在退休的创立了自己的制片公司-科比工作室。他告诉新闻媒体，他在创立工作室之初，他曾找到奥普拉.温弗瑞和电视制作人Shonda Rhimes寻求建议。

　　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.

　　科比分享了他对退役运动员的建议，这个问题通常是严肃的，因为很多人都很年轻，在经过几十年的训练和竞争之后突然闲暇下来，他们必须自己充实自己。

　　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.

　　“对于运动员来说，最困难的事情就是当你重新开始的时候，你真的要保持自我，你必须……重新开始,”科比说。

　　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.

　　“你必须重新学习。学习那些基本的东西，你知道，这是最困难的部分。”
