But in fact, the United Arab League does not like this contrast.
In an interview with Teacher Yang Lan, he publicly stated:
I care about the comparison with Yao Ming because there is no comparability. He feels that the level of Yao Ming is not comparable to the achievements of his whole career.
But in the past many years, we have been used to asking Yi Jianlian according to Yao Ming's standards.
Although the United Arab League does not like this comparison, it is a topic that can never be avoided.
Because of the comparison, our misunderstanding of the United Arab League is really too deep.
Until now, I still remember that "Allen Smile" was a slang word of that year, and insulting words like "Lian Mei" emerged one after another.
The online jokes that mock the United Arab League like "two points and one rebound" can almost be compiled into a book. ...
At the same time, few people pay attention to Yi Jianlian's efforts.
A person, in a foreign land, doesn't understand the language and often gets hurt. Not many people supported and encouraged him, so that in the end, the United Arab League lost confidence.
If there is a saying in China sports that "the single chairman is scolded", I think the United Arab League should occupy a seat.
In those days, he was bombarded with questions and insults, which was no less than that of players like He Guo.
To a certain extent, I think this is the expectation of the fans.
Yao Ming is a rare player in the history of basketball in China, and his appearance has greatly raised the expectations of Chinese people.
If there is no Yao Ming in China basketball, then the United Arab League will become a benchmark for fans, and he will certainly not be reviled and questioned so much.
If there were no Yao Ming in the history of China men's basketball team, Yi Jianlian would probably become the first man in the history of men's basketball team.
It's just that we have Yao Ming.
What makes the United Arab League sad is that their time in the NBA overlaps.
Therefore, the requirements of netizens and friends are, what Yao does, what you Yi Jianlian will do.
Remember the Yao Yi War?
This is an exciting confrontation for Chinese people, but it is really a great pressure for the United Arab League.
During the five years in NBA, every data node of Yi Jianlian will be compared with Yao Ming and Yao Ming, who have achieved great success, by the media and fans under the microscope.
Yi Jianlian's performance in the NBA is really disappointing. Because of this, he has no mercy on the United Arab League.
However, after Yao Ming often missed the game due to injury, the fans' expectations for the United Arab League reached a climax.
But as a result, the United Arab League was disappointed from the NBA. Back in the CBA, some people will say, "He can't get along in the NBA until he remembers the good things in China ..."
Competitive sports is about winning or losing. I'm not trying to shape the United Arab League into a poor role.
Yes, he is worse than Yao Ming in the NBA.
Back to the national team, the fans' requirements for the United Arab League have not decreased at all.
"Yao Ming once led the China men's basketball team to the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games twice, and you have to do it!"
If you can't do it, you have to take the blame.
Then, the United Arab League, which is difficult to win in two Olympic Games, should also bear the blame.
You are the team leader. ...
Respect may be late, but it will not be absent.
In recent years, fans have begun to realize that the abuse of the United Arab League is wrong.
Times are different, so are helpers. When comparing two people, we must be more rational and consider some external factors.
The United Arab League is Yao Ming's best friend, whether it is the Athens Olympic Games or the Beijing Olympic Games.
At that time, Yi Jianlian was still very young, his face was full of youth, and he did not need to bear too much criticism and criticism.
China men's basketball team achieved good results, and the greatest credit naturally went to the team leader Yao Ming, and Big Brother also lost.
But what I want to say is that in the two Olympic Games in 2004 and 2008, the reason why China men's basketball team broke into the top eight in the world was not because of Yao Ming alone, but because of its strong overall lineup.
On Yao Ming's side, there are mainstay Rainbow Zhi Zhi, pitchers at the peak, and NBA players like Sun Yue and Yi Jianlian.
Yao Ming and several top players in Asia were right to make achievements at their peak.
But in the years when Yi Jianlian really became the team leader, he didn't have such an excellent helper.
At the Rio Olympics, he averaged 20.4 points and 6.6 rebounds, while the team's second scoring champion Guo scored only 65,438+00 points.
In the Men's Basketball World Cup, he was the only player in the team who scored in double figures per game (17.8 points).
In addition to the weakening of your own lineup, you also need to consider the strength of your opponent!
So, is this comparison really fair to the United Arab League?
Yes, it is hard for the United Arab League to compare with Yao Ming, whether it is the result of NBA or the leading record of the national team.
This must be true.
But then what?
Can't deny his greatness just because he is not as good as Yao Ming?
First of all, it is a fact that the United Arab League failed to meet expectations in the NBA.
What is more real, however, is that after him, none of China's faces can really rotate in the NBA.
If you put aside Yao Ming's achievements in the NBA, you will find it difficult for a yellow-skinned Asian to play 10 minutes per game in the NBA.
The United Arab League, which entered the league in sixth place in the first round, undoubtedly has such ability.
I believe that more and more fans will express their recognition and respect for the United Arab League.
From black to pink, from "Lian Mei" to Lian Ge, how did the United Arab League do it?
Simply put, it is difficult to do. In his own words, it is to play the ball well.
Although the men's basketball team wins less and loses more, judging from these world competitions, the United Arab League can always play a superstar level performance.
From a distance, in the face of the Spanish men's basketball team, how many players can score 30+ 10 and look at the international basketball world?
In the near term, this is the performance of the World Cup against Nigeria.
It is no exaggeration to say that the performance of personal data of the United Arab League in the world series is not much worse than that of Yao Ming.
This is his greatness.
Writing here, I can't help feeling that this "worst leader" has finally won back respect after insisting on 10 for many years.
After all, time has proved what kind of player the United Arab League is.
Finally, I just want to say thank you to Yi Jianlian, who has been ridiculed and ridiculed.
