篮球是连接彼此的桥梁（体谈）

勒布朗·詹姆斯

不久之后，我将开启职业生涯第二十三个美职篮（NBA）赛季。我大部分时间都穿23号球衣，对我来说这是一个意义非凡的数字。在这个特别的赛季来临前，我再次来到中国，与这里的球迷共同开启下一段旅程。

这是我职业生涯第十五次开展中国行活动，每一次来到这里，我和家人都受到热烈欢迎。中国朋友们的热情友善让我深受感动，我能做的，就是在每一场比赛中全力以赴，向大家表示感谢。

In the article, James said he was thankful to Chinese fans and the "incredible reception" they gave him.

"Every time I come here, my family and I are warmly welcomed. I am deeply moved by the hospitality and friendliness of our Chinese friends. All I can do is give my all in every match and express my gratitude to everyone," he said.

篮球不仅是一项运动，更是一座连接彼此的桥梁，热爱在我们心中流淌。13年前的一次活动中，我和中国大学生球员牛梓薇短暂交流。如今，她已成为一名教师，并且是两个孩子的母亲。这次来中国，我见到了她和她的家人，深感荣幸的同时，也更感到促进体育交流的责任。我也有3个孩子，深知篮球可以激励一代又一代人追逐梦想，看到中国有那么多热爱篮球的青少年，我希望自己也能为中国篮球的发展贡献力量。

"Basketball is not only a sport, but also a bridge that connects us. The passion flows in our hearts,” read the article written by James.

In the article, James said that during the visit he had reunited with former Chinese college player Niu Ziwei, whom he first met 13 years ago. Niu is now a teacher and the mother of two children.

James wrote: "I also have three children and I know that basketball can inspire generations of people to pursue their dreams. Seeing so many young basketball lovers in China, I hope I can also contribute to the development of Chinese basketball."

中国的篮球氛围一直让人惊喜，这里有许多知名篮球运动员，涌现出很多优秀的年轻选手。在四川成都，我参与了中国国家青年队的训练课。我与他们分享了自己的经验：认真对待每一堂训练课，练得越吃劲，比赛越从容。很多年轻人问我如何打好篮球？我觉得有3个关键因素——决心、投入和热爱。如果你热爱篮球，下定决心并且全身心投入其中，就一定会有所收获。

James said he shared his experience with the Chinese players. "Take every session seriously. The harder you practice, the more relaxed you become during matches. Many young people ask me how to become a good basketball player. I believe there are three key factors: determination, dedication and passion. If you love basketball and you are determined and devote yourself to it, you will definitely reap the rewards."

我热爱篮球，篮球也激励着我。虽然我快41岁了，但年龄只是数字。只要我还在打篮球，还能上场比赛，我就会想尽办法做到更好。我对自己非常严格，我希望不断创造新成就，努力成为最好的球员。

"Although I'm almost 41, age is just a number. As long as I'm still playing basketball and can still play, I will strive to do my best. I'm very strict with myself, and I want to constantly achieve new achievements and strive to be the best player I can be."
