Kobe Bryant Says He'd Take Knee During Anthem If He Was Still Playing
Kobe說如果他還在NBA打球的話 唱國歌時他會下跪
Los Angeles Lakers great Kobe Bryant is no longer playing in the NBA, but he
said he would kneel during the national anthem if he was still lacing it up.
雖然老大已經退休了，但是他說若是他還繼續打的話，唱國歌的時候他會下跪。
Bryant responded "kneel" to a rapid-fire question asking him what he would do
while appearing on The Hollywood Reporter's Awards Chatter podcast released
Wednesday (via Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com).
老大對記者訪問時問他對現在正夯的"國歌下跪"事件表示他的看法。
Bryant's comment comes after NBA commissioner Adam Silver said he expects the
players in his league to stand during the anthem, per Ian Begley of ESPN.
Begley noted Silver pointed to an NBA rule requiring players to stand.
老大的評論在NBA總裁Silver表示說他希望球員在唱國歌的時候要站著，而且Silver指出
NBA有規定球員在唱國歌的時候要站著。
Silver also said he will "deal with it when it happens," if a player doesn't
stand, per Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today.
Silver也說若是有球員不站著的話，他將會「處理沒遵守規定的情形」。
Youngmisuk noted the Lakers met as a team and decided they will lock arms
during the song.
有記者報導湖人球員有開會並決議他們要在唱國歌的時候手挽手。
"By locking arms, I feel like we are showing that there are issues in this
country, and it is a chance for us to raise awareness and still make it a
talking point," head coach Luke Walton said while acknowledging his respect
for the military and flag.
「藉由手挽手，我認為我們向大家表示出我們這個國家有問題要解決，現在是喚醒大家並
持續關注的好機會，」湖人總教練Walton在對國旗跟軍人表示敬意的時候說到。
The idea of kneeling during the national anthem as a way of protesting racial
inequality and police brutality took hold last year when Colin Kaepernick did
so as a member of the San Francisco 49ers.
在唱國歌的時候下跪是從去年舊金山49人球員Colin Kaepernick開始，為了抗議種族不平
等跟警察暴力。
A number of NFL players have participated in the practice this season,
especially after president Donald Trump said during a rally in Alabama that
NFL owners should "get that son of a bitch off the field right now" if a
player doesn't stand during the anthem.
一些NFL球員在美國總統Trump在阿拉巴馬州演講時說要NFL老闆們開除在唱國歌時不站著的
"狗X養的"球員後也開始加入唱國歌下跪的抗議。
As for Bryant, he said he would tell Trump to "focus on serving, not leading"
if he had the opportunity to speak to the president, via Youngmisuk.
而老大說，若是有機會跟Trump說話的時候，他會跟他說，「花心思在服務人民，不是在管
人民。
