李小龍如何影響賈巴爾和NBA新一代年輕人

Martial arts legend Bruce Lee, who would have turned 77 on Monday, continues to inspire and guide athletes more than four decades after his death in 1973.

功夫巨星布魯斯李在週一就77歲了，在他1973年去世的四十多年裏，依然影響和指導着後來的運動員們。

Among them are two NBA players unlikely to ever be grouped together. One is a six-time MVP, a six-time champion and basketball Hall of Famer who is the NBA's all-time leading scorer. The other is just starting out — a blossoming combo guard in his second season with the Denver Nuggets.

其中有兩位運動員似乎永遠也不可能在一起組隊。其中一個是六次最有價值球員、六次總冠軍和NBA得分榜領先者的名人堂成員。另一位僅僅是一位初露鋒芒，冉冉上升的丹佛掘金二年級雙能衛新秀。

The 70-year-old Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and 20-year-old Jamal Murray are separated by generations but share the same competitive muse: Bruce Lee, "The Little Dragon."

70歲的卡里姆阿卜杜爾-賈巴爾和20歲的賈馬爾穆雷分別代表不同的年代，但是卻擁有共同的競爭靈感來源：布魯斯李，“小龍”

"Bruce created a jambalaya of martial arts, adding and discarding moves that were less effective. No wasted movements," Abdul-Jabbar said.

賈巴爾說道：“布魯斯創造了一個武術上的什錦菜，增加了也丟棄了一些沒有效率的招式。但卻沒有多餘的動作”。

"Bruce was an innovator and caused martial arts to move forward. ... The skyhook is the embodiment of an efficient shot that requires minimal movement but sudden speed," Abdul-Jabbar said.

“布魯斯是一位革新者，他把武術推到了一個新的高度……天勾是一個富有效率的投籃的體現，是一個有細小但又快速動作的結合”。賈巴爾說道。

"His focus and dedication made me work harder," Abdul-Jabbar said.

他又說到“布魯斯的專注和奉獻精神使我更加努力的訓練”。

"(Lee's) attitude and his mental preparation and his mental toughness are what I took from him into basketball," Murray said.

”我把李的態度、準備和堅韌的精神帶到了籃球當中“穆雷說道。

"It doesn't matter who you're playing against," Murray said. "It's what you can do with your ability and what you believe in."

”不管你面對的是誰，你能做的只是相信你的能力和信念“他說道。

"(Lee) was a lot smaller than a lot of opponents but still came out and acted like he was a bigger guy," Murray said. "I just take that into account when I'm playing basketball."

”李比他大多數的對手體型更小，但依然表現出來他是一個更加強大的傢伙，當我打籃球時，我能做的就是記住這一點”。穆雷又說道。

"When Bruce died, I was so saddened by it," Abdul-Jabbar said. "He was so young — he was only in his 30s. To see him pass early on was tragic and I miss him. You miss them especially when they leave you so suddenly and so unexpectedly.

“當布魯斯去世時，我非常的傷心。他是如此的年輕，僅僅30歲。看他那麼早的離開真是一個悲劇，我非常想念他。當他的離去顯得那麼突然而又不情願，你會格外的想念他”。

"But the Way of the Warrior can be upheld and practiced by people not just those fighting physical battles, but just in dealing with their daily lives. He taught people how to prepare and deal with an issue that might arise and succeed, whether that's in life or in sport."

但是勇士的精神不僅僅會在身體對抗方面被人們維繫和傳承，而且也會體現在他們的生活中。他教會了我們不管在生活或是體育中如何準備和處理那些可能出現或之後的問題。
