Shaquille O'Neal tells crazy story about meeting 13-year-old Kobe Bryant
https://youtu.be/0XFdLLr-I2s
“True story, and Kobe never told me this until after we played: A little kid
comes into the locker room in Orlando and he wants to see Penny Hardaway. It’
s Kobe!” Shaq said.
"真人實事，而且 Kobe 一直到我們高掛球鞋才告訴我：
當年有一個小孩拜訪了奧蘭多的球員休息室，他想要見一見 Penny Hardaway。"
"那個小孩就是 Kobe。"
“I never knew this until Kobe told me this story. He wants to see Penny, and
Penny’s not a bad guy, but I don’t know what was going on that day and he
was just [like], ‘Whatever.’ And Kobe was standing there.
"我是一直直到 Kobe 跟我講這件事的時候（2018年）我才知道。
他那天是想見見 Penny，Penny 並不是一個壞蛋，但我不知道那一天是出了什麼事，
他那天就是表現得有點 '隨便啦' 那種感覺。而小Kobe就一直站在那邊。"
I actually remember this day, the kid was sitting there and I grabbed him
like, ‘Come on, little fella; I’ll take a picture with you!’ I never knew
that kid was Kobe until he told me.
"我對那天的事情記得很清楚，那小傢伙坐在旁邊，
然後我一把將他摟過來，'別在意，小傢伙； 我來跟你合照一張吧！'
但是直到 Kobe 告訴我，我才知道當年那個孩子是他。"
We played together, had our fights and battles together, and then when we did
that Lakers sit-down interview, Kobe said, ‘Hey man, you remember when I
came in the locker room and wanted to see Penny and he blew me off?’ I was
like, ‘That was you?!’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, that was me.’
"我們並肩作戰，在一起經歷了屬於我們的戰役和爭鬥，而後當我們有一天坐下來，
接受一次湖人隊的專訪時，Kobe打開話匣子，
'嘿夥計，你記得那次我進到球員休息室想見 Penny，然後他沒見我那次嗎？'
'當時那小子是你？！'
'對，那是我。'
不知道那張合照還在不在，真想看看那張照片啊
