How did James change from "traitor" to "this time?"

Also fleeing from his hometown, how did James turn from a traitor to a hero this time?

Eight years ago, when it was learned that James was leaving Cleveland, the whole city was angry.

Many fans took to the streets and burned James' jerseys; T-shirts printed with "defector" or "Queen James" are in short supply; In a rage, dan gilbert, the knight boss, published an open letter calling James a coward and mocking him.

Today, eight years later, James left Cleveland again. He reached a four-year verbal agreement with the Lakers of $654.38 and $54 million. Before he officially became a Lakers player, it was just an official statement. There is no doubt that the "old emperor" will lead the Lakers to open a new era and end their career there. The knight will be the fish teacher again.

But this time, James' departure was more like a heroic exit, which was understood, tolerated and even supported by Cleveland.

Why did James get such different "treatment" after leaving his job twice?

Caption: Less than 72 hours after James announced his joining the Lakers, James wore the Cleveland No.23 jersey, and the huge poster celebrating with magnesium powder was completely torn off. Before the poster was torn down, hundreds of local fans came to take a group photo.

When the poster was torn in two, it rained cats and dogs. Some people say that at this moment, God also shed tears.

My hometown has no reason to ask for more.

The spirit of NBA has not changed. If the star of other teams leaves, there may be a curse of "betrayal", but James may never do it again.

On August 9th, 20 14, the welcome party for James' return to Cleveland Cavaliers was held in Akron, Ohio, USA. More than 25,000 people attended the welcome party.

The reason is simple: fans may be selfish, but they are also fleshy at heart. After James returned to the Cavaliers for the second time, he has brought enough things to this team and the city-

In the first season after James's return, the team's record rose from 33 wins to 53 wins, and the team entered the finals from the non-playoff team. This basketball player, known as the strongest basketball player after Kobe Bryant, took the team to a place where the dream is only one step away. In the second season after the reunification, with the score of 1-3 falling behind, we made tenacious efforts to achieve a reversal, fulfilled the promise of leading the team to the top, and won the first championship trophy for the city in 52 years!

Of course, Cheng hopes James can stay. Which team doesn't like the first player in the league? There is hope of winning the championship with James. However, Ke Cheng fans are extremely distressed by James. If he is allowed to go, he may still win 1 or more championships. For the last stage of James's career, for his fight for the best position in history, let him grit his teeth and stomp away.

The knight himself is too disappointing.

If you are safe, who wants to be displaced? If the Cavaliers' management is strong enough to help the team have the strength to compete with the Warriors, is James willing to start wandering again?

But it's too hard. Today's Cavaliers, although their strength is not good, but the contract is not small, there is no room to recruit giants or even powerful stars. The unfavorable signing conditions even met the most retarded managers.

Look at what Altman, the general manager, did during his tenure-first, he didn't do his best to keep Owen, and directly exchanged chips such as Thomas Jr. and the first round of the Nets as treasures; Second, abandon the business philosophy of David Griffin (former general manager of the Cavaliers) and inform James and other key players in the team in advance when the team changes; Third, Wade and Ross were both sent away for surgery before the trading day; Fourth, James was asked to lead young people. He said that James enjoyed it and had no intention of sprinting for the championship. Fifth, the Cavaliers' backcourt is crowded, so they should choose guards, chase Walker and create double control of death.

Young Kobe Altman, compared with Anji, Morey, Riley and other established general managers, is too tender to be tactful.

For the problem decided by James, Altman is more like a moral kidnapping. Altman, so confused, is no more popular than David Griffin. James was heartbroken and didn't get the respect he deserved in the Cavaliers. He can't go on chasing the champion.

So the Cavaliers fans couldn't stand it anymore and urged James to go.

Times have changed, so have our views on the same thing.

In the eyes of most people, it was James who opened the era of giant holding group.

20 10, lebron james, the favored son of heaven, announced his "decision" to bring his talent to Nantan and compete for the championship with Wade and Bosh. At that time, the mainstream public opinion in American sports media believed that it was speculation to cancel three league superstars who were in their prime and choose to form the "Big Three". It is said that the first person to eat crabs is the hardest. James's "pioneering work" attracted fans and experts to run away, and he was also labeled as a "defector".

However, this is the case in professional sports. The success of a model will bring endless "imitation". After the Heat, the Lakers, Knicks, Nets, Thunder, Rockets and other teams all formed a "giant team", and "holding a group" became a stepping stone to win the championship.

It's not surprising to see too much. You'll understand when you watch more. Now that fans have accepted the deformed new era of NBA, they will naturally understand James' departure-it was not James who created this era, but the NBA itself.

The way to leave is more gentle.

Eight years ago, James unwisely announced his next home on live TV. Imagine, when you, as a local tyrant fan who has supported him for many years, learn in front of the camera that he is about to leave his hometown, what will your heart break into? So there was a wave of burning James J.S.Wong jerseys in Ke Cheng. People are disappointed, sad, crying and helpless. Although James donated all the $3 million from the live broadcast to charity, it did not calm the anger of the Kerch people. It's so intuitive and exciting to announce your whereabouts after 32 1 countdown through live TV. Once the published result is contrary to your ideal, you will be shocked by your heart beyond words.

This time, James created enough buffer for his departure. On the one hand, the Cavaliers' bad situation was well known before the end of the season, and the news that James was leaving had already come out. On the other hand, James first released the so-called "oral agreement" through the mouth of the reporter. Strictly speaking, this is just the initial intention of the players and the team, and both sides can go back on their words. But in fact, everyone with discerning eyes knows that such a "slow landing" is really a wise choice.

James was not born with EQ, but he learned from it after suffering losses. For example, after he decided to return to his hometown four years ago, he chose a gentler way to tell the fans-he posted a touching personal letter on the social platform, revealing his long-cherished wish to complete the championship as a knight from childhood, which was touching and hit the bottom of his heart. This is also one of the most successful "home declaration" cases in sports history so far.

Now, he left in the same way as when he came back, and he succeeded again.
