After the Lakers captured the championship last June, they were put on the back burner with all of the free-agent hoopla.
在去年六月湖人取得了总冠军之后,他们就被排在自由市场的中心之外了。
After LeBron and Bosh joined Wade in Miami, it seemed as though many just assumed the Heat were going to win the championship for the next decade. People seemed to forget the Larry O'Brien Trophy is currently residing in Los Angeles.
在勒布朗和波什在迈阿密与韦德会和之后,看上去好像许多人都认为热火将会砸下一个十年中会垄断总冠军一样。人们好像忘记了拉里奥布莱恩杯(FMVP)现在还在洛杉矶呢。

6. Kobe Wants to Win as Many Championships as the Alpha Dog of the Team
6.科比想要更多的赢得总冠军,作为球队老大

尽管科比已经赢得了5个总冠军,但是其中三个是作为球队第二好的球员。我敢肯定科比想要尽可能更多的赢得作为球队毫无疑问的最好的球员。

Kobe has already scored more points than West and Johnson, and he has as many championships as Magic. However, Kobe's personality and off-the-court trouble have often kept him from gaining more momentum in the argument.
科比的得分以及超过了韦斯特和魔术师,而且他有和魔术师相同的总冠军个数。然而,科比的个性以及他在场外的麻烦却经常在争论中阻止他获得更多的动力。
A sixth championship ring and another Finals MVP would all but guarantee him passing Jerry West. However, will he ever be able to surpass Magic in the hearts of Laker fans?
第六个总冠军戒指和又一个总决赛最有价值球员奖杯将会确保他超过杰里·韦斯特。不过,这能否超过湖人球迷中心的魔术师呢?

The road to No. 6 won't be easy, but it would make it all the more sweet.
第六个总冠军的路途一定不会是轻松的,但是如果做到的话,那将又会是最甜蜜的。
