Beijing time September 13th, the domestic HoopsChina media structure compiled a world-wide professional basketball league rankings, in which the United States NBA ranked first, European league ranked second, and La Liga ranked second. three. What Chinese fans can notice is that the domestic CBA league ranks only 34th, in the middle and lower reaches of the ranking list of all 50 professional leagues.
It is worth mentioning that the No. 1 professional league in Asia is not the CBA league of China, but the B league of Japan, which is ranked 29th, which is unexpected. We must know that in the past ten years, the domestic CBA league, both in terms of scale and player strength, is the first in the Asian region. The continuous injection of high-level foreign aid has brought a total of 20 CBA clubs. Japanese basketball has developed rapidly in recent years, but it relies on overseas training strategies. Mixed-blood forward Hachimura, Watanabe Yuta are all mixed in the NBA in the United States. In the 2021 Asian preliminaries, the Japanese team without overseas players lost to the Chinese men's basketball team twice.
It is certain that the current Japanese B-League has not cultivated high-level players in the world or even the top players in Asia. In contrast, the domestic CBA leagues have successively trained world-level players such as Wang Zhizhi , Yao Ming , Battelle and Yi Jianlian since 20 years ago. From this point of view, the CBA league should not rank lower than the Japanese B league. Whether it is league competitiveness or the ability to cultivate talents, the CBA league is currently stronger. This time the CBA league rankings are placed at the back of the Japanese league, which is undoubtedly a manifestation of the embarrassment and lack of recognition of the Chinese basketball world.
Of course, the CBA league at this stage is still in the growth stage. During the years of continuous promotion of professionalism, various events have always occurred. In the early years, there was no flow of personnel, and the age of players was generally falsely reported. During this offseason, Zhou Qi and Liu Chuanxing The two current national players and their respective clubs failed to agree to renew their contracts and directly transferred to the Australian NBL league, both labor and management. How to achieve a better balance, these are all problems, and even the Shandong men's basketball team has not been resolved. It can be said that there is still much room for improvement in the CBA league.
But in spite of this, looking at today’s Asian basketball, the CBA league must be a part of a strong position. At least a lot of players are willing to join the game. They have better competitiveness, treatment and overall in the Asian region. strength.
In the future, if Chinese basketball wants to develop well, it is necessary for the continuous development of the CBA league. When the number of players at the bottom of Chinese basketball increases in the future, the popularity of basketball will be higher, but when there are good basketball seedlings, They all need a good stage to provide them with growth. The CBA league is our own league and it is naturally the first choice. We need the CBA league platform to continue to expand and become better, so that the future of Chinese basketball can see enough light!
