Li Nan only said that he respected his personal wishes, but the fans felt: Why not Yao Ming?

On May 2nd, members of the China Men's Basketball Training Team began to assemble, but there were still many players who could not finish reporting. For example, qi zhou, who was attending the playoffs in the NBA, planned to go to the United States for training.

Head coach Li Nan said: qi zhou and Ding Yanyuhang should respect their personal wishes! First of all, qi zhou doesn't know when the playoffs will be played, and it is impossible to force qi zhou back. Moreover, Ding Yanyuhang's trip to the United States has long been planned, and he will not stop because the national team wants to train.

And Li Nan's "respect for personal wishes" has touched countless China fans, which is a great progress! As the fans said, how lucky Yao Ming would be if he met Li Nan now, but it's a pity that Yao Ming is not so lucky!

For example, some netizens dug up the news in 2007. At that time, Yao Ming just got married in August, but was forced to return to the team on September 3rd because the national team had a competition task. Let's take a look at what Hu Jiashi, deputy director of the Basketball Management Center at that time, said in an interview: Yao Ming will officially return to the team in the match with Melbourne Tigers on September 3rd, and Yao Ming will participate in 8 of the 9 warm-up matches! In addition, Hu Jiashi stressed: Yao Ming may return to the NBA for training camp on 10, but we ask Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian to return to the team in the NBA China game! (This is the original words of the interview at that time)

Of course, respecting individual wishes does not mean Li Nan. In the final analysis, it means chinese basketball association, president of Yao Ming Basketball Association. As we all know, after Yao Ming became the chairman of chinese basketball association, he changed the selection of national team members from the past conscription system to the invitation system!

That is, if chinese basketball association sends an invitation that meets the requirements, the player can refuse the invitation. For example, in April this year, Fang Shuo, a player of the Beijing team, exposed an invitation letter from the Basketball Association inviting him to participate in training! Although the average player will not refuse, the invitation letter at least shows us sincerity and respect!

Yes, it would be great if Yao Ming, who was a player, met Yao Ming, who is now the president of the Basketball Association. At least Yao Ming may still be playing. Unfortunately, the two Yao Ming are destined to live in two times.

I feel lucky for Ding Yanyuhang and qi zhou now. They met Yao Ming, the president of the Basketball Association, Li Nan, who was more tolerant and met a brand-new environment. Just thank Yao Ming, maybe it's because he suffered a lot, and now he doesn't want younger players to go the same way!
