In a supremely luxurious five-star hotel in Boston, the presidential suite on the top floor appeared exceptionally lavish and tranquil.
However, that peace was soon shattered.
Inside the room, LeBron James sat on a comfortable sofa, gripping his phone tightly as he focused intently on an article displayed on the screen.
As he read further, LeBron James's expression gradually darkened. Veins bulged on his forehead, and his eyes burned with fury, as though he wanted to incinerate the phone in his hand.
The article had actually compared him with Goodwin and offered an outrageously exaggerated and one-sided assessment of their careers.
It stated that LeBron James and Goodwin had both come from the 2003 draft class, yet they had entered the NBA under completely different identities.
LeBron James, hailed as "The Chosen One" and drafted first overall, should have possessed an incomparably brilliant future.
Yet who would have thought that after a full twelve seasons, he was still desperately chasing the championship trophy of his dreams?
During that time, in pursuit of a title, LeBron James had even set aside his pride and gone to the Miami Heat to form a superteam, attempting to reach the summit by joining forces with other stars.
But regrettably, even so, he had ultimately failed to get what he wanted and could only return to Cleveland in disgrace like a beaten stray dog.
What was more, the article mercilessly pointed out that throughout those long twelve years, LeBron James had failed to improve himself. His shooting remained atrocious, with no progress whatsoever.
Therefore, it was only natural that he still could not win a championship.
Goodwin, on the other hand, presented an entirely different picture. This second-round pick, once overlooked by everyone, had climbed step by step through relentless hard work and unyielding determination.
