蒙·拜尔斯（Simone Biles），1997年3月14日出生于俄亥俄州哥伦布市，美国职业体操运动员，效力于美国女子体操队。她拥有着惊人的爆发力和卓越的稳定性，是集力量、技术、心理素质于一身的体操选手。

2.estate 遗产

3.Nike 发应注意

4.sneakers 运动鞋

译：就在我们刚刚得知科比的遗产团队也将要和Nike终止长达接近18年而且至少有20双运动员的合作之后，没几天Simone Biles也宣布将终止与Nike的合作。

Kobe's wife Vanessa was at odds with Nike over supply issues.The estate has been quietly filing patents and trademarks of its own, hinting at a new line.

1.at odds with 与某人在某事上不和

3.filing 正式提出（诉讼、请求）

4.patent 专利权

5.trademark 商标

6.hinting at 间接地表明某物

7.line 产品种类

译：科比的老婆Vanessa之前和Nike在供应问题上有些不和，而科比的遗产团队最近也在悄悄的注册自己的商标和专利权，而这一切都意味着一个新的鞋子类别将要出现。

As for Nike, Bryant's sneakers aren't necessarily a needle mover on sales. They are reportedly under $250 million. But Bryant of course, is an icon.

1.As for ≠for

As for 至于。放在句子开头承接两个逻辑关系为转折的句子。

Gift-givers may be motivated to spend more money on a gift in order to send the "stronger signal". As for gift-recipients, they may not construe smaller and larger gifts as representing smaller and larger signals of thoughtfulness.

2.needle mover 产生影响的东西

v.move the needle

3.reportedly 据报道，据了解

4.icon 偶像

译：至于Nike方面，科比的运动鞋系列不一定对Nike的销量有多大的影响，因为科比系列的销量只有不到2.5亿美元。但显然，科比是一位偶像。
