Recently, Hall of Fame player "Big O" Oscar Robertson recently made a guest on a podcast show, in which he talked about many topics. Among them is a topic about the core player of the Lakers James. In this topic, he complained to many fans and the outside media that James did not understand the formation of the Heat Big Three in the summer of 2010. The Celtics formed a luxurious Big Three lineup in the summer of 2007, Garnett, Ray Allen, Pierce, they were both at the peak of their careers, they were in their early 30s. At that time, the outside world readily accepted, and they recognized this way of teaming up. When James, Wade, and Bosh formed the Big Three for the Heat, they were also in the golden age of their careers, and they were only in their early 26s. There is no doubt that the young James is one step closer. But this way of forming a team is considered rebellious to the outside world and cannot be accepted. At that time, the biggest criticism from the external media and fans was almost the same: hug the peak!
What makes people feel strange is why the Celtics have formed the Big Three lineup. There is no criticism from the outside world, but the Heat can't. This is the double standard! The double standard of humanity. Many fans are like this. When facing their favorite stars, they become lenient and kind, and implement a set of standards for their favorite stars to maximize the value of their stars. When facing stars they don't like, they will adopt another set of standards to discredit or even vilify these stars. In short, what your favorite star does is reasonable and should be affirmed. Instead of doing the same thing by your favorite star, you can ridicule and discredit.
It is very common for James to be treated differently, and he may be used to it. The outside world always gave him the most stringent requirements, but he himself performed very well and almost gave the outside world a satisfactory answer.But he is also an ordinary person, and there will always be times when his performance is unsatisfactory. However, these media will always do everything possible to mock him.
As the most influential player in the league, everything on James will be observed under a magnifying glass. Any of his private events may become hot events. His attention is really magical. Because the dry media industry needs traffic and attention, and James has these characteristics, he is the idol of many fans. Therefore, whether from positive reports or negative reports, James' news can always attract the attention of a large number of fans. These can be said to be advertisements or benefits. Therefore, the media is happy to report all kinds of news about James. If there is no news, they will find a way to rub his news and forcibly associate with him.
As one of the most successful players in the league, James has suffered a lot of criticism from the outside world, and also suffered a lot of unfair criticism. But he is used to it. Even if the double standard is fully reflected in him, he can deal with it calmly, and he and his team have been able to face the media very maturely. I hope that fans and the media can evaluate James more fairly, instead of watching with colored glasses and imposing their own subjective assumptions. For a great player like LeBron James, it's hard to be second in the league. Whether in life or on the basketball court, James' image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he is one of the representatives of positive energy players.
