詹皇与儿子
"Watching my boys play ball, last year was the first year I really had some time to watch them play in the summer, like really sat down, went to four or five tournaments," he says.
他说:“去年是我真正第一年在夏天有时间去看我的孩子打比赛,就像其他家长一样坐在场下,看4,5场比赛。
"I'm sitting there and I'm watching the game, and I feel my hands just start sweating, I feel my chest start sweating. I'm like, what is this? 10 year olds out here hooping, why you feeling like this? Then it went from just sitting there ... then it went from me sitting on the bench to me getting in an argument."
“我坐在那里看比赛,我觉得我的手开始出汗,我觉得我的胸部开始出汗。这么激动干嘛?就是群十岁小孩打打球玩玩呗。本来我还在观众席老实坐着,结果过会儿就不自禁地跑到孩子们的替补席上,然后又直接跟人吵了起来。”
The conversation veers4 to the pressure his son must feel living up to a superstar for a parent. He explains why he gave his son his name.
谈话转向了他儿子受到的压力,他儿子一定感到不能辜负他的超级巨星父亲。这解释了为什么要给他的儿子取他的名字。

“我小时候没有父亲”,詹姆斯说道,“因此当我有孩子后我所有的事情就是,不仅让他长成青少年,我还会做所有我父亲没有做过的事。他将有我从未有过的经历”。

“我唯一能做的就是给他们蓝图,但当那个时刻到来时,要走什么样的路还是由他们自己决定。”
