Min Congda's experience of growing up after school is the complete opposite of LeBron James.

He has never been a genius, and the system even evaluates him as [below average intelligence]......

To put it bluntly, he is an ordinary person, ordinary from head to toe, ordinary background, ordinary appearance, ordinary grades, admitted to an ordinary school, and found an ordinary job.

After experiencing an ordinary time travel (no going to the other world and no rebirth), encountering an ordinary system (no endless money and no superpowers), giving him an ordinary task (no asking him to save the world, cultivate immortality or anything), continue to get an ordinary salary (relative to the average income in the NBA circle), and do not do well, still ordinary (bankruptcy is far away).

To say that it is not ordinary, one is that Min Congda's basketball talent has been discovered, which is really powerful, but it also has flaws, and it is impossible to see people's potential.

And that's exactly what he needs most, and it hasn't turned out yet.

There is also the Clippers, whose history cannot be described as ordinary, but too bad and too bad.

For an ordinary person like Min Congda, self-confidence is a luxury, and most of the time he is not confident.

Most of his confidence now comes from "I can't do this, but I can do it." ”

Whenever the system changes the task to "lead the Clippers to the championship", Min Congda will be GG and dare not take it.

How confident Min Congda is now means how unconfident he was in the past.

People who are not confident are often accompanied by fear, and they keep running away from it.

At a certain moment, Min Congda suddenly understood James a little, and he saw something in James that was difficult for others to see.

"LeBron, are you thinking about coming to the Clippers, are you trying to escape something, what are you afraid of in your heart?" Min Congda asked James.

James shook his head and said, "No, I never wanted to run away, and I'm not afraid. I said, I just want to work in a different place, it's nothing, isn't it? Cleveland wasn't for me, so I went to a place that worked for me. ”

Min Congda said: "Really? In that case, so many people on Twitter are asking if you will stay in Cleveland, why don't you answer them? ”

"I said, I'm going to announce on ESPN's show 'Decision' that the revenue from the show's broadcast will go to charity. Also, you haven't answered me yet, why did you refuse me to go to the Clippers. ”

"No, I'm answering you, I'm using questions to make you know yourself better. When you recognize yourself, that's when you know the answer. ”

James had a disdainful smile on his face, but somewhat reluctantly, and he couldn't help but bite his fingernails.

Min Congda noticed this detail, poured another cup of tea for James, and continued to ask: "You said that you are not afraid, are you not afraid that you will not be able to win the championship in your life, you are not afraid that you will not be able to fulfill your business promises and values, you are not afraid that you will not be able to meet the expectations of the fans, and you are not afraid that you will never be what you want to be?" ”

James opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer, unable to deny it, but unable to be sure, he chose to remain silent.

"No, you're afraid, you're afraid of all this, in fact, everyone has fear, it's just that some people choose to run away, some people choose to face their fears. And it's not a shame to run away, Artest joined the Lakers last year, he won the championship, why can't you? ”

"You're right, the NBA is just a job, ordinary people can change jobs, they can go where they fit, they can find a better partner, what's wrong with that? Why double standard, why blame you for changing jobs? You don't understand, you don't feel like it's an escape. ”

"Even if it's an escape, what can it do? Isn't it LeBron? ”

LeBron took a sip of tea and stammered, "I... I... I don't feel like it's an escape, I... I don't think so. ”

"That's right, you don't think it's an escape, because you know that once you admit that you're running away from these fears, you can't escape the truth that you can't accept the most — that you, LeBron James, the chosen one, the basketball king in your mouth, are just an ordinary person who has a different solution when he encounters difficulties."

"You are not a strong man who can control your own destiny, you are just a puppet under the lead of commercial capital. You're not a basketball fighter in armor, but a fragile and fatherless black poor boy wrapped in the emperor's new clothes, who grew up in the slums. Mother has exhausted every drop of sweat for your survival, gunshots, drugs, crime are always with you, those corpses that die on the streets show you the possibility of your future, and you have lamented your sad fate for countless desperate nights until you encounter basketball. ”

"Basketball has given you a whole new world, given you armor and weapons to arm yourself, and given you the capital to show off your might. You are indeed very talented, and you have a firm grip on him. Painful childhood experiences and insecurities make you vow to get ahead with basketball and take control of your destiny! ”

"You feel like you're almost going to succeed, you're going to be crowned king in Cleveland, and everybody is praising you, giving you the highest honor step by step, and that's all that's left of the crown. However, basketball never lies, fails again and again, you want to doubt yourself but you don't allow it! You don't allow yourself, who have been armed for so many years, to disappear because of one escape! ”

"You can't face your truest self, a cowardly, needing security, needing care. That's the deepest fear in your heart. Wake up LeBron, you're good, but not that good, your shooting lacks talent, you're working hard and optimizing your shots, but you're never going to reach the heights of Kobe Bryant or Jordan. You're strong, you're technically sound enough but you're lacking in polish, it's not that you don't want to, it's that you don't have that ability and talent, so you need a system that fits you well with you. You do some things well, but some things are too bad, and some things are bad. You, and your team, and the people who tout, you're trying to hide something. ”

"But again, basketball doesn't lie, basketball is a sport, a business, a war, but in the final analysis, it's still a craft."

"LeBron, you're not good at your craft, you can't face your true self, that's why I don't want you to come to the Clippers. This time, do you understand? ”

LeBron James looked at Min Congda in a daze, this Chinese man who looked very short in front of him, had an infinite sense of height at the moment.

James had never felt this way in anyone else, because he had no father since he was a child, and he didn't even know who his father was.

He did not perceive the majesty of his father, nor did he experience the security of being protected.

So he has a strong desire to control, and he has to be in control of everything in order to eliminate the fear of inner turmoil.

Even with tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of assets, LeBron doesn't want to stop controlling.

He admired the people he had built, and he made it look like he was destined to be.

Before each fight, he throws magnesium powder on the technical table, which is an elaborate move.

Make him look like a king who bestows grace on his people.

But James understood in the deepest part of his heart that he was not a king, he was just a helpless child without a father.

Sitting at the table, James remained silent, Smart's words cutting open his heart like a scalpel.

presented the helpless child in front of Min Congda.

After a long time, James spoke: "Smart, after listening to your words, I think of my father whom I have never met. ”

Min Congda was drinking tea, proud of his Oscar-level line play, and almost squirted out when he heard this!

"Damn, take advantage of me? I treat you as a brother, and you treat me as a father? ”
