Meji: Why can't China's 1.4 billion people find 5 players who can play basketball? Yao Ming's words are beautiful

Yao Ming is the best player in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team. He is the first foreign champion of NBA and the only Chinese who has made a name for himself in the NBA. In the peak period, even top centers like O'Neal and Howard can't help him. After retiring, he was selected into the Hall of Fame and became a legend in the basketball world.

After returning to China, Yao Ming officially became the chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, carrying the development of the Chinese men's basketball team on his shoulders.

Unfortunately, the Chinese men’s basketball team is currently in a dilemma. New stars like Zhou Qi, Guo Ailun, and Wang Zhelin have immediately played in the international arena in the CBA. Becoming malaise, even if there are big brothers like Yi Jianlian, the performance of the Chinese men's basketball team is still worse than every year. This year, even the Olympics did not even get into the Olympics, which is really embarrassing.

The poor performance of the Chinese men’s basketball team was not only ridiculed by Chinese fans, but also mocked by American journalists. In an interview, an American reporter asked Yao Ming: “Why can’t China find 1.4 billion people? Up to 5 players who can play basketball?"

This question is more acute. If Yao Ming does not answer well, it is likely to cause trouble for him. However, it is a fact that the Chinese men’s basketball team did not perform well.This reporter was obviously to watch Yao Ming's jokes.

But Yao Ming’s high EQ is not covered by it. After thinking about it, he used the same question to answer the reporter: “Why can’t the 300 million people in the United States find one who can play table tennis?”

As we all know, the dominance of Chinese table tennis in the world is stronger than the dominance of the US basketball team. It is as strong as the US team also overturned the car in the World Cup and the Olympics, and the national table tennis only needs to participate in international competitions to get 99% Gold medal, because of this, ITTF will issue various new regulations to restrict national table tennis, although it is of no use.

Yao Ming's remarks not only perfectly resolved the reporter's tricky problems, but also made him dumb. In the end, he could only smile awkwardly, leading the topic to other aspects.

Although there are 1.4 billion people in China, only a small part of them really meet the Chinese men’s basketball standards. The number of registered basketball players is even rarer. It is difficult to become a professional basketball player. Adding to the difficulties, coupled with the low popularity of basketball in our country, the Chinese men's basketball team will have no successors. It seems that Yao Ming's task is still very arduous!
