富保羅：LBJ的職涯至少與MJ一樣艱難，很多人等著看他失敗

James’ agent, Rich Paul, explained to Joe Vardon and Jason Lloyd of The Athleti
c why James’ path to GOAT contention was very different from Jordan’s path and
impacted by him. The Lakers star had his own obstacles to overcome.

LBJ 的經紀人Rich Paul向The Athletic的Joe Vardon和Jason Lloyd解釋了為什麼LBJ通往G
OAT的道路與MJ的道路截然不同並受到他的影響。這位湖人球星有自己的障礙需要克服。

“The road for LeBron was just as hard, if not harder than the road was for Mich
ael,” said Rich Paul, LeBron’s agent and longtime friend. “For a number of re
asons. And I think the biggest reason is, everyone wants you to do something the
way somebody else did it previously.

富保羅：LBJ所走過的路即便沒有比MJ更難，也是一樣難的。原因有很多，我認為最大的原
因是，每個人都想讓你用和前人一樣的方式去做事。

“LeBron was a kid. (The media) wanted LeBron to be like Mike; they wanted Micha
el to speak to them in any capacity, which he probably didn’t. They wanted Mich
ael to be his friend, which he probably wasn’t. They also wanted LeBron to act
like, be like Michael, and he wasn’t.

富保羅：當LBJ還是個孩子時，（媒體）就希望他和MJ一樣。他們希望MJ能在任何場合談談L
BJ，但他可能沒有那麼做。他們還想讓MJ成為LBJ的朋友，但他可能也不是。他們更希望LBJ
能和MJ一樣，而他不是。

“There were more people that smiled and hoped LeBron failed than there ever was
rooting for him to succeed in the beginning.”

富保羅：有更多人帶著微笑等著看LBJ失敗，而不是從一開始就給他支持。

Paul is obviously biased towards James in the GOAT debate but his point is corre
ct. Starting when he was a teenager, James was incessantly compared to Jordan an
d given immense standards to live up to. From his time with the Cleveland Cavali
ers, Miami Heat, Cavs (again) and Lakers, Jordan’s body of work always looms ov
er him.

富保羅在GOAT辯論中顯然偏向LBJ，但他的觀點是正確的。從十幾歲的時候開始，LBJ就不斷
地被拿來與MJ相提並論，並被賦予了極高的標準。從他效力於克利夫蘭騎士隊、邁阿密熱火
隊、騎士隊（再次）和湖人隊開始，MJ的成就一直在他身邊籠罩著揮之不去。
