In the Lakers' game against the Eagles on March 21, Beijing time, what should have been a mediocre game became inflamed by a round, and the Eagles' Solomon Hill fell to the ground while defending and crashed into James, which also led to James suffering a sprained injury to the high ankle of his right foot. In the absence of the thick eyebrow brother, the Lakers under james's leadership barely ranked second in the West, and now James has suffered an injury that needs to be absent for the first time this season, which undoubtedly makes the Lakers fans sweat.
In fact, it can be seen from the game that Hill did not mean to hurt James, this is just a normal defense, Hill also rushed to grab the ball to bump into James, and James himself has no complaints about Hill. But angry fans couldn't help but see their beloved James injured, and they left messages under Hill's social media to attack him for deliberately hurting James, which also made Hill feel helpless. Hill then posted an apology on social media, saying he would not disrespect the game, would not intentionally hurt the players, and hoped that James would recover soon.
However, the angry fans have long been insurmountable by such an apology statement, and they continue to attack Hill under this apology statement, and even insult Hill's family. Know that family is the bottom line in many people's minds, no matter how you insult Hill yourself, insulting Hill's family is really excessive. The intolerable Hill also directly closed the comment area of social media, which made it impossible for fans to vent their anger on Hill, but some fans still insulted Hill in different ways.
Hill, 30, is currently a key player on the Hawks bench and has a steady 19 minutes of playing time, while he never seems to have hurt any other players with these fierce scrambles. It's no wonder that even James' teammates are upset with Hill, with Schroeder bluntly saying he doesn't need to do that at all, because he doesn't need to use these active struggles to get his own playing time. And Harrell thinks Hill shouldn't be like this, and we should remember that James is also a human being.
It's no wonder fans are so angry at Hill, because the scene really looks a bit like Hill did it on purpose, but a closer look reveals that Hill may not have really meant it. But in the end, fans just don't want to see James injured, because this season is very important for James, not to mention that the Lakers need James now, and James himself does not allow him to be injured in the competition of the MVP list. If this injury prevents James from getting the MVP, hill's fault is even greater.
But the fans should be rational, even if we are unhappy with Hill, we should not attack his family. The conflict on the basketball court should stay on the basketball court, and james and Hill may have reconciled long ago, but these fans are still attacking others. This is a misconception that we can easily have when we watch the ball, it seems that the star who is sword-wielding in the game may be a good friend off the court, but we attack other stars because of the conflict between the stars, is this not a stupid thing?
