Speaking of the CBA, we have to admit that the most ornamental is foreign aid. After all, their level is higher than that of our domestic players, both physically and technically. Speaking of the CBA's meritorious foreign aid, I think old fans must not be unfamiliar with a name, that is, Jaegerson.
Jason can be said to be one of the most representative foreign aides in the CBA, not only because of his outstanding skills, but also because he played in the Guangdong men's basketball team for a full 10 years. You know, CBA teams change foreign aid is a common thing, can play for a team for a long time, looking at the history of the CBA is only this one person.
Jason is 2 meters 06 tall, strong in body, and is a standard interior figure. As an interior player, he is not only physically outstanding, but also very technically comprehensive, and has a great influence on both offensive and defensive ends. Jason is a natural fighter, he is tenacious in the game, very competitive. As you can see, he has all the qualities of a good basketball player.
<h1>The CBA journey began in the last century with a positive attitude that impressed the team</h1>
Fast forward to 1998, when the 25-year-old Jaeger came from the United States to Guangdong, China, to pan for gold. Maybe even he himself did not think that this would be the place where he fought for 10 years, and the 10 years of his career peak would be dedicated here.
The first time he set foot on Chinese soil, the first time he came into contact with China's competition, Jaeger was still a young man who did not seek progress. Treat people and things that you are not familiar with, are not very serious, even on the training ground, Jason is also the attitude of grinding foreign workers, leaving a first impression is not very good.
But that all changed, and that was the start of the CBA season. At that time, Jaegerson's advantage was only reflected in the body, he did not have a very sophisticated technique, and he did not play the expected role on the offensive end. But he plays very selflessly, willing to share the ball with his teammates, and knows how to play to his strengths and avoid weaknesses.
What is even more rare is that Jaeger's enthusiasm on the field is very high, often because of a rebound or an out-of-bounds ball, he will fight with his opponent to the ground. People who play basketball will definitely like such teammates, and they will rush to do dirty work. Therefore, the team is also increasingly fond of such Jasons.
<h1>After polishing and hard work, the transformation is completely completed</h1>
In fact, Jason itself has a small problem - the heart rhythm is uneven, and he was rejected by the Miami Heat. This also forced him to stay away from tobacco and alcohol in his life, he was originally a professional athlete, coupled with small physical problems, Jaeger became more disciplined.
Although Jaeger did not enter the NBA to play, he can still get exercise and growth in the CBA. He has honed his skills over the years of his CBA career. Quietly, I have also undergone a qualitative transformation, from a blue-collar player to a technical interior line, and both offensive and defensive ends have been greatly improved.
Most of the CBA's foreign aid comes with the mentality of working short and making quick money, because few people can play on a team for a long time, the season is short, and the level is not high. But Jaeger is different, he shows a different loyalty. He will go to other leagues to make some extra money and do some business in his hometown, but as soon as the CBA season starts, he will return to Guangdong on time. Such CBA foreign aid is really rare, fortunately, the Guangdong men's basketball team has also given Jaeger enough respect to provide him with the main position in the team.
<h1>Always think about the team and touch the Guangdong fans</h1>
Slowly, Guangdong has become the second hometown of Jaeger. Jason began to think about the club everywhere, not only to contribute to the team when he played, but also to help the young players in the team grow, and many young players in the team were guided by him.
Speaking of which, there is a small story that can well reflect the sense of ownership of Jaegers, when there was a CBA game, Guangdong injured a number of main players before the game, and the victory seemed to be gradually drifting away. Jason personally offered $100 as a reward, and the condition for wanting to take this money was that the number of rebounds in this game exceeded jason's. Although Jason was still the rebounding king of the team after the game, the $100 was not sent out, but the teammates were indeed activated by this small move, and finally Guangdong successfully won the game.
Not only that, but the move to ask Parker to stay on one knee in the team also touched a large number of fans. Parker is known as the "God of Death" and has shown extraordinary dominance in the Guangdong men's basketball team. In order to keep Parker for the team, Jaeger, who has been running to the age of confusion, actually kneels on one knee for Parker:
"I haven't knelt down to anyone else in my life, including when I first proposed marriage, and I beg you to come back here next season!"
I think there are very few people who can do this, even if they look at the whole world, and Jaeger really makes this place home.
Jason doesn't even like to be called a foreign aid, and there was an interview that was very interesting:
Reporter: "I've been playing in the CBA for 10 years, and in fact, since you came in the 6th season, you've been the longest foreign player in the CBA. ”
Jaeger: "Why do you always say foreign aid, foreign aid?" I don't like to say that, like you said, I've been here for 10 years, am I still a foreign aid? I'm the same as everyone here, and I don't like people to say I'm a foreign aid. ”
In ten years, his partners have changed wave after wave, and only he has always been there. It's really a partner of flowing water, a hard-hitting jackpot. The establishment of the Guangdong Dynasty was inseparable from the efforts of Ji Chen. After his retirement, Jaeger also served as an interior coach in Guangdong, hoping that the life of this CBA meritorious foreign aid would become better and better.
<h1>Hopefully, the CBA will have more foreign aid like Jaegerson</h1>
At present, the development of the CBA is getting better and better, the level of foreign aid is also getting higher and higher, with the success of Marbury, many former NBA All-Stars have also come to China to play, and there is no shortage of superstars such as Maddy and Arenas. Jeremy Lin and Stephenson, who will appear in the CBA next season, have also been first-class players in the NBA.
Foreign aid has become an indispensable part of the CBA, I hope that foreign aid in the increasingly famous, higher and higher level of the basis, but also more and more stable, can really contribute to the CBA, do not hold the mentality of tourism, gold mining mentality to China. I hope that more foreign players like Jaegerson can join the CBA league.
