Ricky Davis was frantically spat at by fans because he wanted to get the first triple-double of his career and throw the ball to his own rebound, and because of the sentence "I thought James was here to help me", it appeared in the NBA's arrogant quotes and was widely circulated. And that's not the case, Davis didn't say it at all!
Ricky Davis is 2.01 meters tall and weighs 89 kilograms, and the front guard swings. He was selected by the Charlotte Hornets with the 21st pick in the first round in 1998. After entering the league for the first three seasons, he played an All-Star performance after joining the Cavaliers in the fourth year and became the boss of the Cavaliers. Later, the Cavaliers traded Davis to the Celtics in order to develop James. At his peak, he averaged 20.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and a career average of 14.3 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3.5 assists.
Davis was interviewed after transferring to the Celtics and was interviewed: I think James is a complement that can help me score better, and I think the two of us can be well connected. Contrary to what people think, I like this kid very much, and now that I'm around Pierce, it also gives me more opportunities to shoot in the open space. Then after the media rendered, exaggerated, it became "James is here to help me", and then it has been passed down to this day.
Throughout Ricky Davis' career, he was filled with two events: "Brush triple-double" and "I thought James was here to help me." In fact, Davis's initial entry into the league performance was mediocre, step by step playing an All-Star performance, although "brushing triple-doubles" is an indisputable fact, but in addition to scoring 28 points, 9 rebounds and 12 assists in the game against the Jazz brushing triple-doubles, he also cut 37 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists against the Knicks, proving his strength. When the Heat traded Davis, many years later, "God Operator" Pat Riley admitted that it was a mistake!
Moreover, Davis is said to have donated injured high school basketball players, silently running a foundation, running a children's basketball training camp, and donating to people in need. But the reality of these positive energy has never been reported by the media...
