科比跟腱撕裂或致賽季報銷 小飛俠含淚確認傷勢大綱

Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant left Friday night's game with a leg injury that could be a ruptured Achilles tendon. Bryant will have an MRI on Saturday to determine the exact nature of the injury.

Bryant reacted with disappointement on social media. On his Facebook page he posted a lengthy update:

"This is such BS! All the training and sacrifice just flew out the window with one step that I've done millions of times! The frustration is unbearable. The anger is rage. Why the hell did this happen ?!? Makes no damn sense. Now I'm supposed to come back from this and be the same player Or better at 35?!? How in the world am I supposed to do that??

"I have NO CLUE. Do I have the consistent will to overcome this thing? Maybe I should break out the rocking chair and reminisce on the career that was. Maybe this is how my book ends. Maybe Father Time has defeated me."

Later he added that called the injury the first step in a new challenge. "One day, the beginning of a new career journey will commence. Today is NOT that day," he wrote. The post received more than 136,000 likes.

If the injury turns out to be a ruptured Achilles, it could have long-term effects for Bryant and the Lakers. That injury could take up to a year to heal, according to Will Carroll, sports injuries lead writer for Bleacher Report. Bryant has previously said that next season could be his last in the NBA. This is the 16th season in the league for the 34-year-old.

According to a tweet from the Lakers, Bryant could tell what the injury was before seeing a doctor. "I was just hoping it wasn't what I thought it was," Bryant said, according to the tweet.

The Lakers have two games left in the regular season, both at home. They face the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday and the Houston Rockets on Wednesday.

The team, after beating the Golden State Warriors 118-116 last night, is one game ahead of the Utah Jazz for the final spot in the NBA's Western Conference playoffs.

【新聞快訊】洛杉磯湖人正在爲季後賽席位激戰時，球隊卻在12日遭受當頭棒喝。在對陣金州勇士的比賽中，科比-布萊恩特在比賽即將結束時腳跟腱受傷，不得不退出比賽。

賽後，湖人官方消息稱，科比有可能是跟腱撕裂，明天接受核磁共振檢查確認傷情。科比狀態上乘，本場比賽得到34分，湖人最終以118：116險勝勇士，但這一好消息仍然讓湖人上下愁眉不展。如果球隊的猜測成爲事實，科比將不得不提前結束本賽季。沒有科比，即使湖人打進季後賽，通過首輪的機率也微乎其微。

而一向堅強的飛俠在聽到這樣的檢查消息時，也忍不住落淚。從科比自己的反應來看，他也是認定跟腱撕裂，賽後記者曾詢問飛俠，“你確信那是跟腱撕裂麼？” 而科比的回到是“似的，那個動作我做了很多次，但它就那麼發生了，感覺突然裂開了，就是種怪事吧。” 從科比兩眼泛出的淚光來看，對於這樣的結果，堅強的飛俠也有些難以接受。而賽後科比更衣櫃前的雙柺，更是對這次受傷的嚴重性下了定論。

日前NBA常規賽還有兩場比賽，目前湖人領先爵士一個勝場，湖人下一場要面對馬刺，西區季後賽最後資格的爭奪仍然存在懸念。萬一科比確診是跟腱撕裂需要缺席比賽，那麼他們能否打進季後賽就會變得撲朔迷離。
