The strength of the Chinese men's basketball team has declined a lot in recent years. Especially after the fig leaf of Yi Jianlian was removed, it is difficult for the Chinese men's basketball team to have any worthy signature stars. Well aware that the domestic CBA league is a hothouse, 21-year-old Cui Yongxi also decisively jumped out of his comfort zone this summer and went to the United States to pursue his NBA dream. However, what is disappointing is that Cui's initiative to pursue his dream has been criticized by many extreme netizens. of cynicism.
In a previous interview with the media, Cui Yongxi made it clear that China is a hothouse and the competitive level of playing domestically cannot be improved. As a result, this aroused heated discussion among many fans, saying that Cui Yongxi became inflated after going to the United States and looked down on the CBA League. But what is little known is that when the Men's Basketball World Cup failed last year, Zhao Rui, the only player who played well at the time, also said something similar to Xiao Cui after the game: "Our league is not strong enough to support us in the international competition." He performed well on the stage of the competition. "
As a leader in domestic defenders, Zhao Rui has also thought about stepping out of the comfort zone of the CBA and going abroad. Previously, media starxia Australian Basketball reported that Zhao Rui had taken the initiative to contact him through his agency team. The Australian nbl team includes Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane. However, because the nbl team had doubts about the level of Chinese defenders and the contract amount offered by the nbl team was not high, the trip failed in the end, and Zhao Rui continued to stay. cba.
As one of the few active defenders who can perform to a certain extent against European and American teams, Zhao Rui's words after last year's World Cup should also come from the heart. I believe that if he were a few years younger, Zhao Rui would be very willing to step out of his comfort zone and go to overseas leagues to gain more experience.
After the defeats in last year’s World Cup and Asian Games, whether it was players or fans, in the following leagues, the scars were healed and the pain was forgotten again. A large number of fans who became fans, in order to protect each other’s home teams, began to express their feelings on the Internet A war of words started, and as a result, it was Chinese basketball itself that suffered in the end.
The extreme "love" these fans have for the players has indeed made these national players a little forgetful and inflated. They are happy with some results in the domestic league, but in the international arena, especially this year's warm-up match with Australia and the NBA In the summer league, the Chinese men's basketball team was beaten to the point of being unable to fight back.
Now that some players have realized that there are shortcomings and shortcomings in the domestic league, if the Chinese men's basketball team wants to regain its competitiveness, it will also be a severe test for the "trading" ability of those high-level decision-makers. If the CBA continues to work behind closed doors, To entertain oneself, it is no exaggeration to say that the dark period of the Chinese men's basketball team will last at least 5 years.
