選手實著 / 曼巴箴言不只放心中 Jayson Tatum 寄託於戰靴 Air Jordan XXXVI PE
今日(4/26)波士頓塞爾提克出戰布魯克林籃網,球星 Jayson Tatum 以 29 分 3 籃板 5 助攻率領綠衫軍晉級季後賽次輪,這對戰系列戰 Jayson Tatum 腳下的 Air Jordan XXXVI PE 都相當特別,上回我們分享他第一戰絕殺戰靴是代言洋芋片品牌的聯名以及第二戰以愛車為靈感的兩雙 AJ,這次 Jayson Tatum 更將他人生導師 Kobe Bryant 精神帶上球場。全黑的 Air Jordan XXXVI PE 隱約透出紫色鞋帶孔,不會蓋過所屬塞爾提克球隊主題但又能展現對老大的敬重,鞋舌上金蛇圈出 Jayson Tatum 與 Jordan Brand 標誌,腳踝皮革也以蛇鱗紋完整了主題,最重要在左右腳後跟拉環分別繡有「How much does it mean to you?」「Keep it rollin’」,來自 Kobe Bryant 對 Jayson Tatum 提點。Jayson Tatum 除了是今日全隊最高得分,首輪四場系列賽累積得分 118 分刷新自己 2020 年首輪紀錄,再度超越了自己。
2018 年夏季 Jayson Tatum 與 Kobe Bryant 一起特訓,球技上精進之外更多的是精神上提升,Jayson Tatum 於廣播節目 Beyond the Press 中回憶那段日子時說道:「我從 Kobe 身上學到許多東西,但其中有件事一直困擾著我。有一天他問我:『這一切對你來說意義為何?』這句話讓所有事情變得清晰,為了偉大成就、冠軍願意放棄什麼?犧牲什麼?」,做為 Kobe Bryant 關門弟子,Jayson Tatum 去年披上導師的 10 號背號球衣出征東京奧運,How much does it mean to you?這句話相信會繼續成為引領 Jayson Tatum 前進的重要羅盤。

“One of the many things I took from [Kobe] that always stuck with me, he just asked me one day, ‘How much does it mean to you?’ And that puts things in perspective. You know, how much does being great or being a champion or whatever, how much does it mean?”
