If you sign with Nike, everything will be different. I might even make a comeback next season to support you, hand over my spotlight to you, something Roger would never do for you.

At Nike and in Cleveland, you’re not Michael’s little brother; you’re the Chosen One, destined to surpass greatness.

My era is long gone, Roger’s era is fading. So what’s next? This era belongs to you, LeBron, and only to you.

You will defeat Roger, wear the crown, win everything, not just a paycheck.”

Upon hearing this, LeBron James widened his eyes.

Michael Jordan coming back? To support me?

18-year-old LeBron James took a puff of a cigar like Michael Jordan, exhaling the smoke.

He wanted to own this era, he wanted to win everything.

The most important thing is, he didn’t want to be just a shadow under Roger’s greatness.

He wasn’t just a draft pick; he had grander goals!

The next day, Roger learned from Reebok that LeBron James backed out.

Despite previously agreeing, he suddenly decided not to meet with Roger and Reebok, and had already signed with Nike.

“He said in the call that he conveys his apologies to you,” Todd Krinsky told Roger.

Roger was a bit angry: “How is he going to compensate my and Scarlett Johansson’s trip to the snowy mountains? Where’s the respect he showed me? Didn’t he promise to meet? I don’t need apologies; I respected him, but he didn’t respect me.”

Todd Krinsky was clearly not expecting James to flake: “Sorry Roger, it’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have wasted your…”

“Forget it, this won’t be the last time he dismisses his own words as hot air. Todd, have our media hype up LeBron James; make the whole world think he could be as outstanding as I was in my rookie season, with the finals guaranteed in year one, and a championship in year two.”

“What? Why?”

“You don’t get it, there’s no fun in destroying a rookie with no reputation. But if it’s a highly anticipated Chosen One? The joy, the kind of joy where you’re superior to someone who’s nothing before you, you don’t get it, you will never get it…”

“Is this why you only target popular stars and models? Is this why you changed girlfriends, well-known actresses, three times in a season?”

This topic shift caught Roger off guard, almost getting him flustered.

“Shut up, Todd, that’s off-topic.”

Tim Duncan and LeBron James both confidently believed their era had arrived, giggling at their own fantasies about the future.

But the future belongs to neither of them.

Roger will soon make them understand this.

—————–

LeBron James reached a 7-year, 87 million deal with Nike, and the destination of the super high schooler was finally confirmed. He willingly gave up a 10-year, 100 million long-term contract, probably believing he could sign a lifetime contract after 7 years. He is so great, so visionary. —”Sports Illustrated”.

Carmelo Anthony signed with the AJ brand, but his price is negligible compared to LeBron’s. —”Slam”.

Inside sources reveal that Michael Jordan is preparing to make a comeback with the Cleveland Cavaliers next season! If this is true, if LeBron and Michael team up, the Cleveland Cavaliers will have a great season! —”Cleveland News”.

Oh, you know, LeBron and Michael are both extremely excellent players and both are my brothers. Like the fans, I’m excited; if two such great players really team up, at least lead the team to the conference semifinals? It’s hard to imagine such great people wouldn’t make it past the first round. Playoffs? What are you thinking, that’s just the threshold of greatness! I’m looking forward to it; I already want the next season to start! —Roger excitedly talked about LeBron James and Michael Jordan in an ESPN interview.
