Mourning gets No. 33 retired by Heat
MIAMI (AP) -- With tears streaming from his eyes, Alonzo Mourning watched his
jersey raised to the rafters by the Miami Heat on Monday night, making him
the first player in the organization's 21-year history to receive that honor.
邁阿密熱火在星期一的晚上，將該隊２１年來第一位球衣退休的榮耀
給了阿龍索莫寧，莫寧在看著他的球衣被升起的同時，他眼中的淚水
也噴出來了。
The 43-minute ceremony featured the reading of a letter from President Barack
Obama, plus brief speeches from Gov. Charlie Crist, Heat president Pat Riley,
Mourning's former Georgetown coach John Thompson and fellow former Hoya
Patrick Ewing, a longtime mentor.
在４３分鐘的典禮中，Gov. Charlie Crist讀了歐巴馬總統送來的一
封信，另外熱火總裁Pat Riley，還有他的大學教練John Thompson，
和他的好友Patrick Ewing，都獻上簡短的致辭。
"Just eight short years ago, eight short years ago, I didn't envision this
moment happening," Mourning said, moments after the gargantuan banner bearing
his name and No. 33 was raised. "This is probably one of the greatest moments
of my life and I'm honored to be here this evening."
就在莫寧的球衣被升起來之後，他說『這大概是我這一生中最棒的一
刻，我真的很榮幸能在今晚來到這裡，在短短的八年前，我根本無法
想像這一刻會到來。』
He was diagnosed with kidney disease in 2000, needed a transplant in 2003,
and was told he'd never play in the NBA again. He returned, of course, and
got the NBA championship he spent a career chasing in 2006, when the Heat
beat Dallas in six games.
莫寧在２０００年被診斷出得了腎臟病，而且在０３年做移植手術，
並且被告知將無法再繼續回到ＮＢＡ打球。可是，他回來了，並且在
０６年用６場球打敗了達拉斯小牛隊，得到了他職業生涯一直在追尋
的ＮＢＡ冠軍。
"I wanted to let you know how proud we all are of your extraordinary career,
but also the way you have given back to the community all these years," Obama
wrote to Mourning. "You have been, and will continue to be, a great leader.
God bless you and your family."
歐巴馬的信中寫到『我要讓你知道，我們都對你非凡的職業生涯以及
這幾年對社會所做的回饋感到無比驕傲，你已經是一個偉大的領導者
，未來也是。願伊露恩福你與你的家人。』
The Heat pulled out all the stops, including having stickers with Mourning's
name and number adhered in two spots on the court and showing video montages
of his career during some stoppages in play.
Many of his closest friends were in attendance, including Dikembe Mutombo,
who played alongside Mourning with the Hoyas, and Jason Cooper, a second
cousin who donated Mourning a kidney in 2003.
他的許多好朋友也都出席了，包括與他一起在Hoyas打球的Mutombo，
還有在０３年捐給他一個腎的表兄弟Jason Cooper。
"I consider him a younger brother that I didn't have," Ewing said. "If I had
a brother, I'd want him to be a person like Alonzo Mourning. Just his
character, just his work ethic, just his fight in the community, his total
way of life. He is a great human being."
Ewing 說『我把他當作弟弟看待；假如我有個親兄弟，我希望他能是
個像莫寧一樣的人。像是他的人格、工作倫理、或是在這社會上的奮
鬥過程，他一切的一切。他真是一個偉大的人』
Mourning said many of his friends were taking bets on whether he would cry,
and vowed to prove them wrong by holding back the tears.
Mourning提到他的很多朋友都打賭他會哭哭，可是他要忍住淚水來證
明他們錯了。
But as the speeches went on, Mourning's eyes began to water, and tears flowed
as his lips trembled when the banner was actually being hoisted.
但是當致詞結束，他的球衣旗幟被高掛在球場上時，莫寧的眼睛開始
充滿了淚水，並且隨著顫抖的嘴唇滑落下來。
"Y'all can go and collect your money," Mourning said.
