2、ad other agendas. I felt that I wanted to play baseball and I felt that at7my age, it was a good opportunity and time to do it. And with the death of my father, and I was basically trying to deal with that.Actually I talked to Jerry last year once the season ended and I told Jerry at that time, ment

3、ally, I was a little exhausted. I didn't know if I would play next year. I wanted to put him on awareness 4 so that he could possibly prepare going into next season. And Jerry, once we had our conversation, wanted me to take time as I did in 93 to make sure that it was the right decision because

4、 it was going to be the final decision.I retired 5 the first time when Phil Jackson was the coach. And I think that even with Phil being the coach I would have had a tough time, mentally finding the challenge for myself. Although he can somehow present challenges for me. I don't know if he could

5、 have presented the challenge for me to continue on to this season." Even though middle way of this season I wanted to continue to play a couple more years, but at the end of this season I was mentally drained and tired. So I can't say that he would have restored that.I willsupport the Chic

6、ago Bulls. I think the game itself is a lot bigger than Michael Jordan. I've been given an opportunity by people before me, to name a few, Kareem Abdul Jabbar,Doctor J, Eljohn Baylor, Jerry West. These guys played the game way before Michael Jordan was born and Michael Jordan came on the heels o

7、f all that activity. Mr Stern and what he's done for the league, gave me an opportunity to play the game of basketball. I played it to the best I could play it, I tried to enhance the game itself. I've tried to be the best basketball player that I could be.我在 這 里宣布從 籃 球 場(chǎng) 上退役，而且這 次退役后不會(huì)再去從事棒

8、球或其他類(lèi) 似的運(yùn) 動(dòng) 。由于精神上很疲憊 ，我感到自己非常缺乏挑戰(zhàn) 力；體力倒還 不錯(cuò) 。 1993 年那次退役時(shí) 我有其他 計(jì) 劃：想打棒球，我這 個(gè)年 紀(jì) 正是從事棒球事業(yè) 的極佳 時(shí) 機(jī)。而且父親剛 好去世了，我只想盡力去面對(duì)這 一切。事 實(shí) 上，去年 賽 季 剛結(jié) 束 時(shí) ，我和杰里談過(guò) 一次。我告訴 他我精神上有些疲憊 ，不知到下一年還 能不能打。我想讓 他意 識(shí) 到 這 一點(diǎn)，以便 為 下一 賽 季做準(zhǔn) 備 。杰里 - 有一次我 們談過(guò)這 個(gè) 問(wèn)題 - 讓 我要象 93 年那 樣 ，好好考 慮 ，以便作出明智的決定，因?yàn)檫@ 將是最后決定。第一次退役時(shí)費(fèi)爾 杰克遜是教練。但我覺(jué)得既

9、使本賽季他還擔(dān) 任教 練 ，我也會(huì)很困難 ，內(nèi)心里，我已感受到了挑戰(zhàn) 。當(dāng)然無(wú) 論 如何，他都會(huì)給 我一些 應(yīng)對(duì) 方法的。我不知到他是否還 有 辦 法使我打完 這 一 賽 季。在本 賽 季中 間 我 還 想著再打幾年呢，但當(dāng)賽 季 結(jié) 束 時(shí) ，我卻感 覺(jué) 精神枯竭，疲憊 。因此我確實(shí) 不能 說(shuō) 他會(huì)使我恢復(fù)精力。我將支持芝加哥公牛 隊(duì)，我認(rèn)為比賽本身比邁克爾沃重要得多。我的很多機(jī)會(huì)都是籃 球前 輩們給 的。我 這 里指出一些：賈 巴 爾 ，J 博士， 韋 思特。 這 些人早在 喬 丹出生前就活躍 在 賽場(chǎng) 了。 邁 克爾刑只不過(guò)是繼承了他們的傳統(tǒng)。斯特恩先生及其 為聯(lián)盟做出的貢 獻(xiàn) 給 了我

10、打 籃 球的機(jī)會(huì)。我已盡我最大能力打球，我想努力推動(dòng)比 賽 本身的 發(fā) 展。我一直在努力，盡我所能成為 最好的球 員 。 文章重點(diǎn)單詞 注 釋 ：1 retirementn.退休，退職參考例句：She wanted to enjoy her retirement without being beset by financial worries. 她想享受退休生活而不必為 金 錢(qián) 擔(dān) 憂(yōu) 。I have to put everything away for my retirement. 我必 須 把一切都 積 蓄起來(lái) 以便退休后用。2exhaustedadj. 極其疲 憊 的，精疲力盡的參考例句
