Today, the second season of Lakers forward James' podcast program "The Brain of the Field" was updated in the latest episode. James talked about many topics with the guest host Nash. The theme of this issue is the NBA draft and potential changes in NBA rules.
Talking about his ability to speak frequently during the game, James said: "I spoke less in the NBA rookie season, not because I can't speak anymore, but because I think, OK, I need to restrain myself, absorb knowledge, learn experience, and observe when I need to speak, I don't want to enter the team with that posture - I was the number one player in the United States in my senior year, but I know when I was selected into the league, I was the 450th player, and that's what I thought.
"What I thought was, 'How can I get back to No. 1? Just like what I did from the first year to the fourth year of high school? How can I get back to the top? ’I think it is definitely not done through my speech. I need to learn knowledge and I need to win status. ”
Nash: “I want to interrupt and let everyone hear what he said just now. When LeBron James first entered the league, he thought, ‘I need to win. ’We rarely see such a situation nowadays. ”
James: "Yes, when I first entered the league, my thoughts were, 'I am the No. 450 player, let's start from No. 450 and be at the bottom of the league. ’I’m not saying that I’m the bottom player in the league, but that’s my mentality. How can I get back to the top? Then Mike Brown took over our team a few years later, and I remember that was my third or fourth season, and he was a coach who valued defense a lot. He hears my voice in training, and when we play training games in the summer, he hears my voice with great majesty. He said to me, 'In order to make us one of the best defensive teams in the league, as well as strong teams such as the Spurs and the Pistons, I need your voice. ’ From then on, I can do what I do best. I don't need to learn how to do it, I'm born with this ability. But now I can use it to create an advantage for us and then from Career Season 3 to Season 22, it's been. ”
