近期，罗斯在Ins上更新了亲笔长文，讲述了自己战胜命运挑战的心路历程。
以下是双语全文：
Imagine having your dream job or working for a company for 10 plus yrs... Blood, sweat and tears and somebody from another company approach you and say ...Hey... you look like your vintage self today LMAO.
想象一下你拥有一份理想的工作，或者在一家公司工作了10多年。。。血、汗水、泪水，其他公司的人走到你跟前和你说…嘿。。。你看起来像巅峰期的罗斯啊（哈哈）
vintage [ˈvɪntɪdʒ] n. 特定年份(或地方)酿制的酒;酿造年份; adj. (指葡萄酒)优质的，上等的，佳酿的;
LMAO abbr. （网络俚语） Laughing My Ass Off
You dont know them at all and they think they know you becuz they watched you perform a lil bit from a far. The shit would throw you off right??? You had your ups and downs in the company right! You’re human! But WHAT if the numbers say you were more efficient that year...
你根本不认识他们，他们认为他们了解你，因为他们在远处关注你的表现。这言论会让你很爽，对吧？？？你在公司里的表现总是有起伏，对吧！毕竟是人啊！但如果数据显示你当年效率更高。。。
WHAT if you’re a totally different player! Its nothing VINTAGE about my game but my floaters. I dont dunk or jump high anymore. I’m not killing u with speed nor am I a one man fastbreak anymore. I dont even shoot my reverse layups lol.
如果说你已经是一个完全不同的球员呢！愈老弥妖的不是我的比赛而是我的抛投。我再也不灌篮或没法跳那么高了。我没法再用速度杀死比赛，也不再是一个人快攻了。我甚至都不怎么上反篮了，哈哈。
floater 抛投（篮球术语）
reverse layup 反篮（篮球术语）
Im a totally different player. I love chess so I would put it this way... I lost my Queen early in the game but I fought my fuckin way back to get one of my pawns down the board to get her back. If you know chess... thats a very hard process to achieve and if you really know how to play you know even the master games are won with few pieces on the board and its about strategy, heart and skill.
我是一个完全不同的球员。我喜欢下国际象棋，所以这么说吧。。。我在比赛初期失去了我的王后，但我他妈的奋力反击，让我的一个小兵奋勇前冲，把她救回来。如果你懂象棋的话。。。就知道这个过程的难度有多逆天，如果你真的知道怎么玩，你就知道即使是大师级的比赛也可以通过棋盘上仅剩的几颗棋子力挽狂澜，一切都是关于战略，内心和技能。
put it this way 这么说吧（常用口语词组）
pawn [pɔːn] n. (国际象棋的)兵，卒;
strategy [ˈstrætədʒi] n. 策略;计策;行动计划;
Its cool to say I still hoop a lil bit...plus I been fighting through shit my whole life. Im smiling through it becuz I been through the hardest shit. That was growing up piss poor in Chi and nobody didnt understand my pain and dreams but me. Vintage or not... I’m extremely Blessed and Skilled.
我还能在打球，这说起来有点酷…而且，我一辈子都在与命运抗争。我在微笑，因为已经我经历过了最艰难的事情。那是一个穷小子，除了我自己，没有人理解我的痛苦和梦想。不管是否是巅峰的我。。。我是非常幸运和技巧过人.
