"We're fine. We just want to win too much. Now it's all over." After the game, Anthony Davis said lightly in the face of the densely packed shots and microphones on his face.

"We're fine. We just want to win too much. Now it's all over."

After the game, facing the densely packed shots and microphones on their faces, Anthony Davis said lightly.

He really wants to win. In the second regular season game of the season, facing his opponent who slaughtered himself in the first round of the Western Conference last year, his mid-range pitching feel never came. In addition, the whistle is not good for Lakers , and Thick-eyed is obviously anxious. During a timeout in the second quarter, he had an argument with Howard . Howard stood up from the bench and his thick eyebrows pushed him. Before Howard responded, his teammates pulled the two of them apart. If this conflict occurs on the field, it may not be considered an ordinary foul by strength. But when it happens to happen on the sidelines, it can attract the attention of the world and is considered "a sign of instability in the Lakers' locker room this season." But my opinion is the same as Davis, James , Vogel and everything Lakers related to said after the game. This conflict is not a big deal. In the issue where the Lakers are now worried, the priority of handling such skirmishes can only rank 77th. Their solutions to this problem include asking Howard to announce his forgiveness, asking Davis to announce his forgiveness, and laying off 810,975 kinds of things.

After ushering in a 0-win and 2-loss start, many people compared the Lakers' season with their 2012-13 season. These two teams do have a lot in common. Their lineup list is also star-studded, the core players are also old, the season starts with difficulty, and they also have Howard. Davis did a behavior against Howard that even Kobe did not dare to do it in public. I wonder if Howard would remember the word he described when he lost the 75th superstar a day ago: Disrespectful.

Howard is always disrespected, we are no longer surprised by this. As the best center in the league in the past 15 years, he has never received the respect he deserves. There was no past, there was no present, and there didn’t look very good in the future. Talking about honors, he has three best defensive players, has entered the first team of the best team five times, and has won the second MVP vote once; Talking about leading the team, he led the team as the core to play in the finals; Talking about the championship, he was the starting center of the champion team in the Western Conference Finals and finals last year. He obviously wants whatever he wants, why is he still so unpopular?

In our worldview from childhood to university, whenever we encounter trouble, the teacher always asks us to find the reasons in ourselves. Even if you encounter bullying in school, the teacher will use the classic bastard question to question you: "Why don't he bully others, just bully you?

Just like when we were young, we played NBA for 18 years, but Howard still couldn't find the reason. But we can help him find it. After playing Sun , Howard was interviewed. In the interview, he showed what an aggrieved 35-year-old middle-aged and elderly employee should look in the workplace: "We had different views on the situation on the field at that time, and now it has been solved. Davis is my brother, we both have no problem. I will stay positive and spur teammates, but I will not allow anyone to discredit the relationship between the two of us. "

This is howard we are familiar with. He is always loyal, likes to talk about brotherly feelings in work relationships, and likes to call his teammates family. Even if his former younger brother Beverly relies on him to the Rockets, but in the conflict between him and Harden , he can't learn anything from it. In life, he always laughs and rarely shows his aggressiveness. This makes his teammates love him very much when they have no interests with him, but also makes him seem majestic in the team when he is the top player of a team.

Due to his personality, Howard never likes to be the kind of hero who fights against the world alone.Before the torrent of the times and the pressure from the outside world, he often expressed his obedience and was not against the contrary. When he first entered the NBA, he was just a thin power forward. The team wanted him to gain muscle and play center. He immediately grew into what we were familiar with later. Later, public opinion said that his basket-backing skills and footsteps were too rough. He signed up for a crash course in Olajuwon and immediately scored a season with an average of 22.9 points and a shooting percentage of 59.3%. When he played in Los Angeles for the first time, Kobe thought he was always smiling and not serious enough, hoping that he could play with anger and bad face like himself. He also tried it, only proving that one was not suitable for him. He was in Houston in his first year in Houston, but after playoffs lost to Trail Blazers , he began to try to delegate power to Harden, willing to retreat to the second line to play a defensive axis. When the best center in this league is willing to be gentlely raised by the team, it is difficult for teammates not to love him. But what happened later proved that love without respect can easily deteriorate.

In addition to his teammates, fans also love him. A friend of the journalist who has been interviewing on the front line of Houston for many years told me that when I left the game after the game, Howard was always willing to try his best to meet the needs of the fans. There were often scenes where everyone in the team got on the bus and Howard was still signing the fans. When he was a member of the Rockets , he was the most popular star in the team.

But in the eyes of the media, Howard's image is much worse. Under their description, Howard's image has undergone a series of changes: a child who is ignorant of the world, a genius who lacks ambition, a giant baby with insatiable desires, a team's cancer data brush, and cannot keep up with the stubbornness of the times. All in all, he is neither a winner nor a leader.

When he and Kobe were opponents, his talent was used to highlight Kobe's greatness; when he and Kobe were teammates, his childishness was used to highlight Kobe's responsibility. Such stories have been staged on him again and again. Even though his game data, stadium influence, and team achievements are all on the surface, he has never been recognized to match his strength. The media accounted for about half of the 75 major stars and 88 judges officially announced. Perhaps from that time on, we can imagine that Howard would be treated unfairly again.

The media describes his perspective, changing the way people view him. The World won't remember that he averaged 27.0 points and 15.5 rebounds in the last series of Magic's . He only had 7 of 30 three-pointers in the series, Nelson 6 of 26, Arenas , and 15 of 15 of J.J Redick , only remember that the Magic lost to the Hawks in the first round; the World won't remember that he once ate Robin Lopez alive in the first round of the playoffs in 2014, only remember. is good at guiding 's 0.9-second finale; the world won't remember the Rockets' shocking turnaround Clippers' G6, he guarded the penalty area, allowing Jordan Jr. and Griffin to get a point in the fourth quarter, only remembering the three-pointers of the headband brothers one by one; maybe someone remembers the finale of Davis, but some Lakers fans have forgotten how he entangled Jokic in the playoffs held by Bubble, so that the Lakers had the upper hand in the Western Conference Finals.

He participated in those moments, but he was never remembered. Sometimes he serves as a background, sometimes as a helper, but he has been abandoned by the mainstream narrative of the media and will no longer be reflected in the spotlight. The last time the world clearly remembered his face was in the 2015 opener, where Kobe pointed at his nose and roared at him "Soft, try me".

5 years later, he smiled and talked about what happened that day in an interview: "When Kobe called me a soft boy, I hated him for several years because I felt that he misunderstood me. He used weakness to describe me, but I was always tough on the court. But Kobe had a great influence. After he said that I was a soft boy, everyone decided that I was a soft boy. At that time, I hated him so much.I was not mature enough at that time, but I understand now. If I had listened to his advice at the time, maybe I would have gained more now. "

You see, this is Howard. He is always too kind, too loyal, and too easy to understand others. If he could be more petty and be more vengeful, when his competitive state declined, there would not be so many people who dared to put a spoil him. If he could be more independent and willing to argue more for maintaining his media image, his public image would not be so bad. His career has reached this point today, with many factors. Displacement has affected his condition, and injuries are the same, but what really affected him and failed to reach a higher level was the expectations of the outside world and his expectations of those The obedience of expectations. He is always urged to make decisions he has not yet thought of, but is criticized after making the decision. His media image has become worse and worse. Today, when many athletes who have not achieved anything better than him are more recognized by the public, he can only complain a few words, but the world only regards the slut as the weak, and respect is even more unrelated.

After winning the championship in 2020, Howard had thought about renewing the contract with the Lakers and posted a Twitter announcement of the renewal. But an hour after the trading market began, the Lakers' management never had Contact Howard's agent. Howard can only delete and go to Philadelphia . Obviously, this is also a kind of disrespect. The consequence of this disrespect is the farce of the gods making trouble at the end of last season. In this offseason, he returned with a basic salary, making Lakers fans celebrate. But then, we saw the scene that happened last Saturday.

When the thick eyebrows' hands were pushed to his chest, countless Chinese fans began to stand up for him, not only Lakers fans. When he lost respect, he also received sympathy. The moral concept of the Chinese people is simple: the village chief has become three fat men No, there is really no need to make up another stick.

The American son of Thick Brow doesn't understand this reason because he has not really been disappointed. When he was a superstar at the age of 28, he has not experienced so many ups and downs in his career. It is difficult to truly empathize with an outdated superstar at the age of 35. But even out of politeness, you should at least show some basic respect and humility to your teammates and seniors, because one day you will eventually grow old.

1. That's all, I advise you to be kind.
