Kobe Bryant tied with Tiger Woods for top spot in popularity poll
科比与老虎伍兹民意调查受欢迎度并列榜首


                                          

Lakers guard Kobe Bryant is tied with golfer Tiger Woods as the favorite American Sports star, according to the findings of a Harris Interactive poll released Tuesday.
周二公布了Harris（？what?）互动的一项调查结果：湖人队后卫科比与高尔夫选手老虎伍兹(艾德瑞克·泰格·伍兹)并列为最受欢迎的美国体育明星。

The poll results reveal more about the fickle nature of sports fans than it really shows about the player himself.
这项调查结果更大程度上是揭示了体育迷们变化无常的性格。而不是真正关于那些球员本身。



LeBron James dropped from third to sixth after facing nearly universal criticism by announcing his decision to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers for the Miami Heat in an hour-long special on ESPN.
在詹姆斯ESPN长达1个小时的直播中宣布他的决定（离开骑士去加入迈阿密）后，詹姆斯面对的是普遍批评的声音，他的排名也从第三下降到第六。



Woods dropped in popularity after reports surfaced about numerous affairs preceded his struggles on the course.
伍兹在众多丑闻后，民意支持率明显地下降了（据我所知：丑闻大概就是输球暴口粗，还有就是离婚案不~~还有啥?）。


And Bryant jumped from four to a first-place tie after winning his fifth NBA title.
而布莱恩特在获得他第五次NBA总冠军后，从第四名跃升到第一名。

It appeared Bryant wouldn't have been able to rebound after his public image took a beating for several instances.
从前几年科比的公众形象被打击的几件事来看，科比的人气看起来似乎没有机会可以回升。
：

There was the Colorado incident in July 2003 in which he was charged with sexual assault, though the charges were later dropped. T
1：2003年7月在美国科罗拉多州的事件中，他被指控性侵犯，尽管指控后来不了了之。
here was Bryant's tension with Shaquille O'Neal. There was the perception that Bryant couldn't lead a team.
2：科比与奥尼尔之间产生了紧张局势后，有一种质疑：科比无法带领一个球队。

And then there was Bryant's radio tour in 2007 during which he seemingly changed his mind within hours at a time on whether he wanted the Lakers to trade him or not.
3：还有就是在2007年，科比通过电台宣布：在接下来的几个小时内，关于他是否会被湖人交易，还得看他的意思。

Since then, the Lakers have appeared in the last three NBA Finals and have won the last two.
从那时算起，湖人队已经走过了三年，也赢得了三个NBA总冠军中的后两个。


Even though there's been debate on whether Bryant's assorted injuries and age (31) have marked a decline in his game, a greater public appreciation for his dogged work ethic and fixation on titles coincided with James' struggles with carrying Cleveland in the postseason and ultimately his decision to join Miami.
尽管还有一些质疑，关于科比的各种伤病和他的年龄（31）是否会影响他在比赛中的水平，但是有越来越多的公众对他的职业道德表现出欣赏的态度。恰逢詹姆斯在季后赛中的糟糕表现，并最终决定离开克里夫兰，加入迈阿密。（他们就更支持科比了~~）

As much as the poll reveals Bryant's ability to bounce back from adversity, the pendulum swing in public opinion clearly shows that winning cures all ills.

越来越多的调查结果都显示出了科比的能力：他会从逆境中逐渐走出来，在公众的舆论中，战胜一切关于他的质疑和诟病！！！
