Live broadcast, July 10 -today, Ye qofeng, a reporter from China Newsweek, published a document revealing the views of domestic basketball people on Li Kele. It reads:

Xia Song, a basketball agent who once operated Wang Zhizhi and Bartel went to the United States, thought that it was inappropriate to regard Li keel as the “savior” of Chinese basketball “. He told China Newsweek: “At present, naturalized Li keel is nothing except a” shortcut “to win tickets for the Paris Olympics.”

Undoubtedly, this represents the attitude of a considerable number of sports people towards domestication. Its core point of view is: relying on shortcuts, you may get a short-term success in “curing the symptoms” (that is, getting the qualification for the Paris Olympics), but the function and effect will not last long, it will even continue to weaken the motivation to solve problems, that is, to “cure the root cause.

In today’s men’s basketball China, the overall strength has declined significantly compared with Yao Ming’s period and the earlier “golden generation”, which has become a recognized fact. The problem of “curing the root cause” of Chinese basketball is also unavoidable.

Xia Song told China Newsweek that before the 2008 Olympic Games, China men’s basketball was a strong tour in the world basketball. All countries in the world had some awe of China’s men’s basketball, but after 2008, this sense of awe was disappearing. “As far as I know, professional institutions in some countries continue to track the dynamics of Chinese players and make professional analysis and evaluation, but the general evaluation of the ability and development ceiling of Chinese players is not high.”

Li Keer has acquired Chinese nationality and will play for China men’s basketball
