Walking into the history corridor of the NBA, you can always hear those reverberating names, and James is undoubtedly the loudest one among them. As the sunset of his career draws near, everyone is looking for that "next James". Today, let's talk about the top 5 players who have been crowned with the halo of "James **" since the 21st century, and their stories are more exciting than TV series.
The first to bear the brunt is Evans, this guy is an all-round point guard as soon as he debuts, which is eye-catching. The 20+5+5 data in his rookie season is simply the same as James. But, you know what? This first-generation ** person, in fact, is a "high and low" life blockbuster, from the peak of his rookie season to now there is no ball to play, his story tells us that no matter how high the talent is, it is useless not to work hard.
And then there's Wiggins, the guy who was born with the label of "athletic talent." When he was in college, he was simply a superhero on the basketball court. However, after entering the NBA, he seems to have started the "basketball civil servant" mode, clocking in and out every day, and losing the enthusiasm of the year. Now 29 years old, he has also lost himself in the Warriors, averaging 12 points per game, which makes people sigh that no matter how good his talent is, it is difficult to become a great weapon without passion.
When it comes to Simmons, the big forward with the size of a guard, the 16+8+8 data in his rookie year is definitely an all-round fan. Unfortunately, he always seems to be at odds with his talent, undisciplined, not working hard enough, and at the age of 27, he has now become a fringe figure in the league. Looking at his direction, it is really embarrassing, talented, but also needs diligence as a companion.
Cai En, the guy who was called a "monster" when he debuted, his physical condition and ** strength are amazing. He had an amazing performance of 22 points in his rookie year. However, as time went on, his problems gradually appeared, and his weight soared due to his lack of self-discipline, and although he is doing well now, it seems that he is still a little short of a big star to become a real superstar.
Finally, we want to talk about Brother Alphabet, who is the only one of all the "James ** people" who has successfully counterattacked. From the 13th pick to today, with MVP, championship, and FMVP Grand Slam in hand, he used his story to tell the world: talent is a gift from God, but hard work is the only way to success.
Looking at the stories of these "James ** people", do you think they are more exciting than TV series? Their stories show us that no matter how high your expectations are and how far you can go in the end, it's up to us. February** Dynamic Incentive Program
