This point illustrates that Jamison is not a daring, vigorous player without peer.
In this regard, Jamison is quite similar to his good friend, schoolmate, and fellow rookie, Vince Carter.
Both of them come from middle-class families and grew up during America's economic boom in the 1980s, with relatively favorable environments and conditions.
Therefore, their personalities lean more towards ordinary people, with both parents present and quite healthy.
The problem is, the NBA is a gigantic mental asylum housing a group of troubled children and the mentally ill.
To achieve great things here, one must either have significant deficiencies in their upbringing or indeed have some mental issues.
The greatest players in this league are the asylum's directors, experts at resolving troubled children.
Normal kids like Jamison and Vince Carter seem somewhat out of place here.
