James' career has been criticized, and no one has questioned his ability, but his businessman attributes have made many fans dislike. If the previous James may have been wronged, then from the moment Bronny joined the NBA, no matter how he washed his name, it was impossible to wash away James's businessman background.
After Bronny was drafted by the Lakers, I felt that the face of a player businessman like James was exposed, and some people said that there was no way, everyone's values were different. I've always wondered, don't people who like James know who he is? And this sentence "values are different" made me suddenly open up and suddenly enlightened.
I have never understood why it is difficult for a person to like Kobe Bryant and James at the same time, it is said that two great stars can coexist in the hearts of fans, and there is no need to step on one and praise the other. But the phrase "values are different" made me understand that the audience groups of these two stars are very different.
People who like Kobe Bryant tend to have a more axial personality, while people who like James tend to have more active brains, they don't care about the way they succeed, they don't care what others say, they only care about the final result, or they don't think about it so much at all, as long as James is good, it's enough. So people who like James have no faith, it's like playing Contra when I was a child, a powerful person will use one person to clear the customs, and a rookie will adjust the cheats and use 30 people to pile up to clear the customs, this is the difference.
It's hard to say which values are right, but for those who love sports, fairness, justice and hard work are always the themes. We like to see the tension between the players, the fight and the comeback even if they fail, rather than being opportunistic like James and Durant, and no one in the NBA's all-time top 10 has ever won so many championships by sheer huddles, and James is one of the only examples, and from this point of view, he has achieved something that has never been done before or since.
In fact, James has been in business since he entered the league, but he was fledgling in the early stage, and he was just building his own personality. The three most impressive impressions that many fans have of "Young Zhan" are his excellent ability, poor shooting and repeated defeats. James's ability is undoubted, otherwise he would not have won the title of "Little Emperor", although the NBA has various nicknames, there are only two people who can be called emperors, all of whom are historical superstars, and the same is true in other fields, billiards emperor Hendry, pole vault queen Isinbayeva, etc., are among the best figures in their respective fields.
And James's projection ability has always been poor, so it has led to the result that he has repeatedly failed despite his own emptiness. If the Cavaliers version 1.0 is a poor lineup, then the American Dream Team's repeated blowouts in major tournaments are a matter of strength. The Dream Team, which had Paul, Wade, Anthony and James, was beaten to the point that the Greek team had no shorts left, and James vividly reflected his shortcomings.
It is said that the reason should be found from oneself, and James's teammates are not always bad, but the results have also been up and down. In fact, everyone did not express their disgust with James from the first day, after all, there is love for no reason, but there is no hate for no reason. Many people are sighing when they see the highlights of James in the Cavaliers 1.0 period: "He is still a good person at this time!" ”
In fact, James is very hopeful to catch up with Jordan, but the operation of defecting to the Heat team makes him unable to compete with Jordan no matter how hard he tries, because no matter how many honors he wins, he has actually lost his meaning. Of course, the good thing is that James is strong enough to win championships on every team, otherwise he would have been caricatured even more.
From the moment James left Cavaliers 1.0, the man had become black. The super idols in our impression must be Jordan, Kobe and Iverson who fight their opponents to the end, they can break their hands and feet, but they must not admit defeat. Therefore, it is difficult for people who like Kobe to like James, because Kobe's strengths are precisely James's shortcomings. Although both are top 10 stars in the NBA, their personalities and ways of handling the ball are completely different.
Soon after entering the league, James began to build his own personality, and he never clashed with players and fans, no matter how excessive the opponent was. Sometimes I, as an outsider and not a James fan, are furious when I see the attacks on James, but James clearly doesn't care and always responds calmly. I don't believe that there are people with such mature minds in the world, let alone this is an NBA player with a masculinity, how can James endure it?
But throughout James's entire career, I understand, because James doesn't have the heart to think about these trivial things at all, he wants to build his own business empire, and businessmen are typical as long as their interests are not lost, and it doesn't matter if they are scolded. At first, James's tolerance made people think that he was a very high-quality person, but after a long time, he realized that James's attention was not on this at all.
He throws magnesium powder in every game, giving the impression that he is the boss of the stadium. This is understandable, after all, as a top superstar, James has the right to create some atmosphere. But obviously James is the person who sees the NBA the most thoroughly, he and even the NBA is actually a show, and making the audience cool is the ultimate goal, so it is a beautiful thing to throw magnesium powder on the surface, but it actually reflects James's businessman nature, others are here to play, he is actually here to show.
After the first huddle, James officially started to run his own business, if the first huddle is to desire the championship, then the second time is not to work hard, of course, he can be called a championship for his hometown, and when it comes to the Lakers, James really can't be whitewashed, three huddles fully show that James is such a person who likes to take shortcuts.
But fans are not stupid and understand what is right and what is wrong. But apparently James doesn't care at all, no matter what others say about him, he is immersed in his own world, and his heart is very strong. This kind of person is very suitable for business, he doesn't care about the process of winning the championship, only cares about the final result, he understands that even if the fans will be dissatisfied with his huddle behavior in a short period of time, but if you look at it in the long run, the championship will always be the king of the historical status of the rankings.
Just like we like stars such as Iverson, Maddy and Carter, but over time, these events will be buried in the long river of history, no one cares, and the achievement of a triple-double king like Westbrook will be remembered forever, and James is also on this path, and after he retires, fans will gradually forget his huddle behavior, and instead will see who has more championships and MVPs, and James in that period will undoubtedly surpass everyone except Jordan.
James' huddle is an open fact, and many people have teased that James may want to join the Celtics, but this is just a joke. But after winning the championship in a shrunken season, James clearly doesn't have much interest in the Lakers anymore, and his departure is only a matter of time. And despite his poor form, James is still the most appealing star, and the Lakers, the most successful team in the NBA, also know how to do business.
The Lakers are absolutely unwilling to lose James, not because of James's competitive state, but because of his influence. So the Lakers and James hit it off, and the two supported each other and did business together. James had his own business many years ago, and has repeatedly discussed cooperation with NBA commissioner Adam Shaw. The NBA has vowed to multiply its turnover, and James is also in talks with the NBA about how to invest.
In fact, in the last few years, James was completely a businessman, and he was constantly paving the way for himself, and even for his son Bronny. Dad has great skills and wants to help his son, which is human nature. But what he should do is to let stars from all walks of life teach Bronny to play and give his son more backstage support, instead of directly letting Bronny parachute into the Lakers.
If the previous James was still bearable, then from the moment Bronny joined the Lakers, James has completely become a businessman, in fact, James in the last few years has no intention of fighting, and playing is not very attractive to him, neither winning the championship nor the bad money. And supporting his son and opening up a larger business territory is James's ambition.
I heard that James had agreed with all the teams before the draft that whoever drafted Bronny before the 55th round would take Bronny to play in the Australian League, that is, not only for his son to enter the NBA, but also for the Lakers. It is said that China is a humane society, and today's NBA is really impressive. But it's understandable to think about it, after all, the NBA only has money in its eyes, and James is also a fellow believer, and the two sides hit it off.
Netizens joked that no one would select Bronny in advance, to put it bluntly, Bronny is not worthy of being an NBA player at all. But it doesn't matter, the power of capital is always strong, and a mere third-rate player can rely on his father's energy to enter the NBA, no wonder the NBA is getting more and more boring. In fact, the NBA has never been a competitive sports organization similar to the Olympics and the World Cup, its essence is a commercial league, the purpose is to make money, so everything that violates the lower limit of morality is allowed as long as it can bring huge benefits.
Today's NBA and James can be described as smelly, Adam Shaw and James are also very close partners, the two work together to continue to make a lot of money, but these fans are suffering. The only thing I'm curious about now is whether everyone will applaud or boo when Bronny comes on the court. Or let's just come to see the fun, look at the first pair in NBA history and maybe the last pair of father and son on the same stage, although one is too old to play, and one ability is not enough at all, no matter what the result is, just watch the monkey, right?
