As athletes, we are always aware that the possibility of retirement is never far away. I’ve spent my 15 year career knowing that one day I would have to walk away, and yet actually saying goodbye to basketball today has been the hardest decision I’ve ever made. 做為一個職業運動員，我們一直知道「退休」就在不遠處。過去職業生涯的15年，我明確的知道有一天我會需要離去，但如今真的要跟籃球說再見，仍然是我這輩子最難的決定。 It's been the honor of a lifetime to compete against the fiercest competitors under the brightest lights and to challenge what the world thought was possible for someone who looks like me. I've lived out my wildest childhood dreams to play in front of fans all around the world. I will forever be the kid who felt fully alive everytime I touched a basketball. 能夠在最耀眼的燈光下與最猛的對手對抗，並且挑戰世俗眼光中對於我這樣體型條件所認定的可能性，是我這輩子最大的榮耀。我實現了小時候以為不可能的瘋狂夢想：在全世界的球迷們面前打球。我一直都還會是那個充滿童心，碰到籃球就覺得是最鮮活的自己。 So many people have sacrificed and poured into my journey, more than I could ever repay. Thank you all for believing in me, for walking with me, for celebrating my highs and picking me up in my lows. This is a ride I never wanted to end but I know it’s time. I will forever miss playing basketball in front of you all but our time will go beyond just playing. Here’s to what’s ahead. 這一路走來，有太多人因為我犧牲奉獻。謝謝堅信著我的你們，一路相隨陪伴，跟我一起慶祝高光時刻，但在我失落的時候也陪伴我站起來。這是一段我非常不想結束的旅程，但我知道是時候了。我永遠會懷念在你們面前打籃球的每個時刻，但我們所共同擁有的遠超于籃球。對於未來的一切，我們一起向前看。 Love you all 真心誠意的愛你們每一個 來源：https://www.facebook.com/share/v/16wS4J658x/ 心得：林來瘋落幕，謝謝豪哥 ----- Sent from JPTT on my Xiaomi 23078PND5G. --
