The NBA is the highest temple of basketball, and if you can play in the NBA and play well, you can get a good salary. Although the NBA is only the third-ranked ball game in the United States, their salaries are much higher than in football and baseball. From 1946 to the present, the NBA has gone through more than 70 years of history, and in the NBA, a total of six Chinese players have appeared, the most outstanding of which are Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian.
Yao Ming was selected by the Rockets in 2002, and the UAE League was selected with the sixth pick in 2007. These two people have a lot of physical fitness during the CBA period, so who is better physically talented by these two outstanding basketball players?
Yao Ming was able to become a Champion Show that year, partly because of his height and long arms, and partly because he had the Chinese market. When he first entered the league, Yao Ming was thinner than the NBA players, so he was always bullied on the defensive end. But then he began to improve his diet and start training, which also made him slowly emerge in the NBA.
Yao Ming is 2 meters tall, 2 meters 25 meters, has a hand length of 22 centimeters, stands and touches 2 meters 92 meters high, and assists in running and jumping 68 centimeters; while the UAE League is 2 meters 11 meters tall, 3 arm spans 2 meters 22, standing height is 2 meters 83 meters, and the starting jump is 90 centimeters. From a physical point of view, there is a gap between the UAE and Yao Ming, but in terms of speed agility, the UAE is even better than Yao Ming. However, compared to Yao Ming,who has become an All-Star in the NBA 8 times and entered the best team five times, Yi Jianlian is slightly unsatisfactory, and the injury has ruined him.
The UAE has played in the NBA for a total of five seasons, averaging 7.9 points and 5 rebounds per game, in fact, it is more than enough to play a substitute player, but because of his personality and injury, he was ultimately unable to stay in the NBA and chose to return to Guangdong Hongyuan. Both of them have made outstanding contributions to the cause of basketball in the mainland and deserve a big review.
