Chapter 7

Finally, James played 13 minutes in his first summer league game, contributing only one assists, one steals and three mistakes.

Such performance is obviously unsatisfactory.

However, the Cavaliers had stronger overall strength. Under the leadership of Boozer, miles and Wagner, the Cavaliers won the magic 107-80.

James's first game performance attracted a lot of questions. Is he really qualified to be the No. 1 show? Do you really have such strength? Did the Cavaliers choose the wrong person?

Fans, media reporters and expert commentators are talking about it one after another.

Within Nike, there is also a heated debate. Is it worth it and is it too risky for them to give a cooperation contract for the endorsement of rookies with the highest value in the history of the NBA? Can James really rule the NBA for a long time in the future, as they judged before? If they can't, the contract they gave will really be in vain, and their old opponent Adie will laugh at them for being stupid. Adie just thought James wasn't worth the high price and let someone give it to Nike. James used to play in Adie's shoes.

All parties are discussing that James is likely to be overestimated, and even many people think James is a complete parallel product.

Some people with ulterior motives cut James's first performance in the summer league into a video collection, directly entitled "the wonderful performance of parallel champion James in the summer league", and put it on the Internet for people to watch. Once this video clip was put on the Internet, countless people reproduced and downloaded it.

However, this is just a game. The sluggish performance of a game is not enough to explain too many problems. Some people are calm and want to see more games before making a conclusion.

But James didn't let them like it. After a hard fight, they had already met with overwhelming doubts. He still fought. If he fought again, the $90 million duck that must have been cooked flew and didn't eat yet.

So James got angry after the first game. After the game, he told the media reporters that he would withdraw from the Orlando summer league. He said that the NBA venue was longer than that in his high school, and the confrontation on the court was more intense. He still needed some time to adapt, so he no longer continued to participate in the remaining summer league games, but had to carry out special training, Special training will make him better adapt to NBA games and make him have a better state in the preseason and regular season.

Chu fan did this because he found that there were few first round players in the whole summer league. They were all marginal players, so he made a quick decision and directly announced his withdrawal.

To say the first game, the NBA has invested enough effort to do enough publicity. If he can't withdraw from the game and have to give the League face, he has shown his face, played the first game and didn't play in the back, which can be regarded as a difference to the league.

But his announcement made people feel that he withdrew from the game because he had no strength, cowardice and guilty heart. It also made some people who were not optimistic about him firmly believe that he was a parallel product. Even the fans shouted that James was a coward and a counsellor.

But Chu fan really doesn't care about this. What he needs most now is time. As long as he has enough time, he can be improved. When his strength is improved, he can go back and slap those who jump the most today.

When he faced these insults and questions, he was not very angry. Scold. Anyway, it was not him. It was James. He was Chu fan. As long as he thought so, he felt that these were nothing. He seemed to be wearing a mask, which looked like James.

So those heroes and thieves should be masked and easy-looking when they want to do something. On the surface, they can be calm when they face things and pressure.

Paul Silas was stunned by James's sudden decision and withdrew from the game without consulting him? He was dragged by his boss to coach the summer league in order to cultivate a tacit understanding with James as soon as possible. As a result, the other party left him after a word.

If Chu fan knew that he thought so, he would tell Silas that withdrawing from the game was really just a small decision. If there was a decision in the future, it would scare you to death. However, it was hard to say that Silas was not your head coach of the Cavaliers at that time.

Anyway, Paul Silas is a little upset, but he can't bear it. Who is James? Now the big name is a coach. Big name players are generally not good at coaching. If they don't have a good relationship with the big name stars in the team, it is likely that the coach will pack up and leave. The head coach of the NBA team is really a high-risk industry, Not a stable long-term job.

Silas not only endured the unhappiness in his heart, but also had to smile with the media and say that he supports James' decision very much. He also believes that James is not necessary to play the summer league at present.

After James retired from the game, the Cavaliers' Boozer, miles and Wagner also followed suit. They also withdrew from the game. Before, the team's top management stressed that they should come to accompany the game. Now that the protagonist has gone, their supporting roles don't need to stay in the summer league. They also want to retire happy. It's still a long time before the pre-season and regular season, The preseason doesn't start until October.

What's more, after they played a game with James, they all thought that James didn't play the leading role and asked them to play a role. They were all blown up by the media.

When they were interviewed by the media, they didn't mean to regard James as the team leader at all.

Darius miles commented on James to the media like this: I don't think we can rely on a high school student to make earth shaking changes in the team. When James comes, he can join our team and rely on us to create some big scenes. "

Boozer said a little tactfully: "James's potential is unlimited. Maybe the sky is his limit. But now we have better players in James's position. We should let better players get the chance to play in the regular season, so that we can play well. "

Wagner said more blatantly, "it is likely that we made a wrong decision at this year's draft conference and failed to select the right person to help our team. So in the new season, we can only rely on our veterans to improve the team's record and strive to enter the playoffs. "
