He is known as the "Chinese Great Wall" and "Oriental Giant" in the sports world. He has dedicated everything to Chinese basketball, enduring serious injuries yet persisting for many years. Surprisingly, he faced much criticism after serving as the chairman of the Basketball Association, ultimately resigning from his position. It turns out that what Bai Yansong said was correct; now, Yao Ming has already embarked on another path. Yao Ming's name is well-known not only in our country but also abroad. He is the pride of the basketball world and a true "superstar" in the basketball realm. His birth foretold that his life would be anything but ordinary, inheriting his parents' extraordinary height advantage perfectly. His upbringing and training were done with utmost care, ensuring he had sufficient nutrition by living frugally so that he could have enough milk every day. In school, he loved learning but started playing basketball due to his superior height, which was both an advantage and perceived as unusual by others. Initially, his parents encouraged him to practice basketball merely for academic advancement, never intending for him to pursue it as a career. They understood the challenges and hardships involved in this path. Initially, he was not highly regarded, but as his height continued to increase, he successfully joined his hometown's youth team for training. Years later, he became a member of the Shanghai Youth Men's Basketball Team, officially starting his professional career. Initially, his performance was not outstanding, but as the number of games increased, he gradually found his rhythm, eventually leading the Shanghai…

Bai Yansong Was Right: Yao Ming, After Resigning as Chairman of the Basketball Association, Has Chosen Another Path When it comes to basketball, most people immediately think of Yao Ming. As a former chairman of the Basketball Association, his character and "official quality" are undoubtedly top-notch. However, on October 31 last year, he announced his resignation. It's said that Yao Ming's era has come to an end, and events have once again proven that Bai Yansong was absolutely correct! The Glory of His Basketball Career In 1980, Yao Zhuyuan was extremely nervous and restless, pacing anxiously outside the delivery room while his wife, Fang Fengdi, exerted herself inside as if fighting a tough battle. Finally, after a period of waiting, a heavyweight "little giant" named Yao Ming was born, weighing in at 5 kilograms. This child, who was larger than others from birth, seemed destined to stir up a "storm" on the basketball court. Growing up, he towered over his peers, leaving them in the dust. Everyone had to look up to talk to him; this kid was naturally cut out for basketball. Under the excellent genes of his parents and his own hard training, he gradually began to gain fame in the basketball world. By 2002, he confidently entered the NBA, selected as the first overall pick. This was akin to dropping an "atomic bomb" in the basketball world, turning a new page in the history of Chinese basketball. On the NBA court, this Chinese big man truly delivered, with precise shots that hit the basket like missiles and…

In a CBA regular season match between Beijing and Qingdao men's basketball teams, Zhou Qi, who had just returned from injury, once again paid the price for his lack of composure. He only played two quarters before being ejected in the third quarter after less than two minutes due to a dispute with the referee, resulting in two technical fouls (Ts). According to CBA tradition, Zhou Qi is likely to face severe penalties from the basketball association this time, at least a fine is inevitable. The CBA has always been strict in punishing conflicts between players and referees. Many fans are also concerned about why Zhou Qi was so angry this time that he risked getting a T by directly arguing with the referee? From the game video, Zhou Qi was mainly dissatisfied with the refereeing standards of referee No. 59. In the 10th minute of the third quarter, Beijing held the ball on offense, and after receiving the ball, Zhou Qi prepared to drive to the basket for a layup. As a result, he collided with Yang Hanshen of Qingdao and fell to the ground. Zhou Qi quickly passed the ball to other teammates. At that time, the referee did not indicate anything. However, Zhou Qi believed that Yang Hanshen might have obstructed him because Yang Hanshen made a foot movement when he started. Zhou Qi therefore communicated and argued with the referee for the first time. The referee thought that Zhou Qi should focus on the game and made a gesture refusing communication to him. Zhou Qi still…

Recently, the Chinese sports world has been buzzing with news of Yao Ming's resignation! After stepping down from his position as chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA), it took only six days for this familiar "basketball giant" to make a high-profile appearance in a new role, sparking intense discussion among fans. Yao Ming's every move captures the hearts of countless people, and this time is no exception. His return to the public eye not only surprises but also fuels speculation about what other surprises Yao Ming might bring us next. The Story Behind Yao Ming's Resignation: Seven Years as CBA Chairman As early as October 31, 2024, when he officially announced his decision not to continue serving as chairman of the CBA, many media outlets began speculating about what might have happened behind the scenes. Since taking office as CBA chairman in 2017, Yao Ming has dedicated himself to Chinese basketball. As a former NBA star player, he was acutely aware of the gap between Chinese basketball and the world's top levels. To change this situation, he implemented a series of reforms, such as the "dual national team" system and bringing in foreign coaches to improve training standards. Although these reforms initially achieved remarkable results, the performance of the Chinese men's basketball team on the international stage did not meet expectations. In particular, the consecutive failures to qualify for the Olympics placed significant pressure on Yao Ming. The expectations and criticisms from fans, along with media scrutiny, weighed heavily on this former basketball superstar. Perhaps it was after deep…

This afternoon, Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Volleyball Management Center of the General Administration of Sport, was investigated, becoming a hot topic on the internet. For many fans, the ups and downs of the Chinese women's volleyball team over the years have been directly related to Li Quanqiang. As the first high-ranking official in the volleyball field to be investigated, Li Quanqiang's downfall may uncover problems that have long been hidden in the volleyball field. The reason why Li Quanqiang's investigation has caused such a stir is that he has been deeply involved in the Chinese volleyball world for too long. From 1997 to 2022, for 25 years, Li Quanqiang has been a senior manager in the volleyball world, serving as the leader of the men's and women's volleyball teams, and finally retiring from his position as the top leader of volleyball. Over the years, no matter how the women's volleyball team performed, even in the face of tragic defeats, Li Quanqiang's position remained unshakable, making him known as the "indestructible" figure in the Chinese volleyball world. Moreover, when Li Quanqiang was finally investigated, he was the top leader of the Volleyball Management Center, with significant influence. Long-term, the Chinese volleyball world has not received much attention from the outside world, except during major events like the Olympics and World Championships for the women's team, and people rarely pay attention to the development of volleyball, especially the men's team. Therefore, with Li Quanqiang's investigation, people are curious about how the corrupt interest chain in the volleyball world was…

China's National Sports Administration is keen on the development of football, volleyball, and basketball, aiming to improve performance in these sports and cultivate more outstanding athletes. To this end, the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA), Football Association (FA), and Volleyball Association have organized youth championships for these three sports, with the goal of identifying talent through increased competition and integrating them into the national teams as reserve forces. The CBA has issued significant penalties following the conclusion of the U16 men's basketball championship. During a match between Jilin and Zhejiang teams, which proceeded normally for the first three quarters, Zhejiang's players displayed a lack of enthusiasm and competitiveness in the fourth quarter, effectively giving up on offensive opportunities. Despite the referee's attempts to encourage the team to regain their focus, Zhejiang's performance led to a substantial point difference, making it clear that Jilin would win the championship. This消极的态度 from Zhejiang's team during the match against Jilin has drawn attention from fans and sparked online discussions. Many netizens believe that any issues should be openly addressed rather than allowing such an attitude to prevail, as it disrespects both the opponents and the spirit of the game. Specifically, the penalties imposed by the CBA include a three-year ban for Zhejiang's team leader, Wang Nan, and a one-year ban for coach Zhao Hang. This is seen as an unfortunate start for both individuals, who had only recently taken on their coaching roles. However, someone must take responsibility for the team's消极态度, and after investigation, the team leader and coach were found to bear primary responsibility.…

In the recently concluded U16 National Three-Ball Championship, two teams were severely penalized for violating the spirit of sportsmanship: Zhejiang team was accused of passive play, while Jilin team had their results annulled due to age fraud. The Chinese Basketball Association announced strict penalties against the involved coaches, including a three-year ban. This incident is like a slap in the face for everyone concerned about youth sports - shouldn't competitive games embody fairness and the spirit of striving? Why has it become a stage for cheating and passivity? This is not just a "crash" during an event; it's more like a mirror reflecting deep-seated issues in the field of youth sports: excessive focus on results, management loopholes, the "failure" of coaches' roles, and the repeated challenges to the fairness of competitions. What appears to be a youth championship actually involves many thought-provoking aspects. The incident itself is not complicated: Zhejiang team, dissatisfied with the tournament arrangements, deliberately underperformed in a crucial match, causing an uproar with players "treading water" on the court. On the other side, Jilin team was reported for age fraud, fielding players who exceeded the actual age limit. After investigation, the Basketball Association imposed severe sanctions on both teams, canceling their results and heavily punishing the involved coaches. Although these two issues seem unrelated, they share a commonality - both lost their way in the pursuit of "results." Zhejiang team's passive play was a response to dissatisfaction with the schedule and refereeing decisions, attempting to express protest through this extreme method. Jilin team's fraud was to compete…

Everyone knows that at the beginning of the New Year, CBA Company issued a fine. The reason for issuing the fine was that Zhao Rui collided with the referee during the game. Zhao Rui, the guard of Xinjiang men's basketball team, was suspended for five games and fined 100,000 yuan. Later, Zhao Rui apologized through social media, saying that he respected and accepted the punishment and would express his apology in actual actions. Although Zhao Rui apologized, the problem of CBA referees has not been solved. It can be said that after Zhao Rui was punished, there were frequent misjudgments by referees on the court, which led to great doubts about the current CBA referees. Whether they can blow the whistle in the game is really unbelievable. Recently, according to the report of "China Youth Daily", the Chinese Basketball Association specially held an online referee meeting to discuss the existing refereeing problems in the CBA League. This meeting put forward new requirements for referees, emphasizing the high attention to the order and fairness of the game. The reason why the Basketball Association attaches so much importance to this is because Zhao Rui previously appealed to the CBA official body, requesting reform of the CBA referees. Now it seems that Zhao Rui's appeal has been successful. Now some fans also say that the problem of CBA referees has been a long-standing issue and has never been resolved. If it is a problem of professional ability, it is okay. What is feared is other problems that lead to inconsistent judgments before and…

The new head of the Basketball Association sets three fires, abolishes Yao Ming's efforts, reuses Gong Luming, and returns to tradition. For the men's basketball team, will this have a significant impact? Speaking of the recent head of the Basketball Association, everyone should be very clear that it is Yao Ming's successor. After Yao Ming chose to resign recently, the current leader of the Basketball Association, Guo Zhenming, has also made some new adjustments. The goal is to lead the men's basketball team to greater breakthroughs and hope to win more victories in future international competitions. However, for the great efforts Yao Ming has made in the past and the series of changes he has made, they have basically been abandoned by Guo Zhenming. Firstly, an important decision is that Guo Zhenming, according to understanding, will vigorously promote excellent local coaches in future games and invite local head coaches to lead the team. However, Yao Ming has always insisted on hiring foreign head coaches, especially including foreign coaches like Djordjevic. Although Yao Ming's approach is relatively advanced, it may not be suitable for the local environment. After all, many foreign coaches find it difficult to adapt to the local players' playing style and tactics after coming to China, and it is also challenging for them to manage the entire team well. Currently, Guo Zhenming continues to adopt the approach of vigorously promoting excellent local coaches, which still has certain advantages as it allows for a better understanding of local players. Secondly, in the new round of personnel arrangements for the…
