Let me answer this question. First, China's basketball atmosphere is not good. The second is that genius is not something that can be found.
On the surface, it seems that the basketball atmosphere in China is not bad, there are courts everywhere, and the school basketball is also good, but compared with the developed countries in basketball, it is still far from being good. Take our campus basketball, enthusiasts, but willing to embark on the professional road is very little, grass-roots basketball lack of good coaches, lack of Bole, the selection of material to look at the height of a lot of good seedlings have missed the best training time. We know that Yi Jianlian is because of the late time to participate in professional training, so the ball almost, which also restricts his progress to a higher step.
When we have a mass base like soccer in Brazil, or the same atmosphere as basketball in Europe and the United States, then we can say the atmosphere is good.
My deepest impression is that the business enthusiasts usually play a ball are not necessarily aspects of the weekend can only go to the nearby schools, high schools and elementary school are not open to the public, only to go to the university basketball court, the weekend is particularly crowded, often play not. Encountered windy and rainy indoor pavilion either can not get in, or charges expensive to death. In addition, some of the park court and square dancing old lady to compete, so that is the general basketball enthusiasts exercise conditions are not available.
Then again, the problem of genius, Yao Ming's height, but also that confrontation, that sense of touch, that the ball, such a player is really unattainable, a few decades out of a, but also to ensure that from a very early to be found, and does not delay the training.
Take this year's CBA, Xinjiang's Zhu Chuanyu is 2.2 meters tall, basically the same as Yao Ming, 22 years old this year, is also considered to embark on the road of professional basketball, but the performance is very general. And Yao Ming at the age of 22, has ruled the CBA, and then went to the NBA.
So it's too hard to meet such a good seedling, and when you do, you won't necessarily be able to become a success. China is never short of big players, what it lacks is really talented players.
In summary, our basketball atmosphere is not good, and talent is unattainable.
