Recently, the Chinese basketball world has also been caught in controversy, first of all, the contract dispute between Zhou Qi and the Xinjiang team, because the basketball association stood for Zhou Qi, which made the Xinjiang team very angry, and finally threatened to withdraw from the game. But the final result is that the Xinjiang men's basketball team returns to the CBA league, and whether Zhou Qi is a free agent is still unknown. In addition to this matter, the core of the women's basketball team Li Meng intervened in the marriage of former women's basketball leader Zhang Long, which also caused a shock in the basketball circle, Li Meng and Zhang Long have been married last year, which is an emotional dispute, and the basketball association and the women's basketball team are inconvenient to intervene, so it depends on how Li Meng's team calms the turmoil.
Chinese basketball has developed for so many years, in fact, in many times players are a relatively weak party, like the NBA league in the United States has a player union, for the best interests of the players, if a player has been treated unfairly, the player union will also stand up to support justice, and some retired stars go bankrupt, the union will also extend a helping hand to provide economic and material help. This is one of the reasons why the NBA can develop rapidly, with a very reasonable operating system.
In fact, Yao Ming, chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, has always hoped that the domestic CBA league can also establish a players' union, but due to resistance, this plan in previous years has also been stranded. Now, the Zhou Qi incident has given Yao Ming the best reason to set up a players' union, and no one will oppose it at this time, because the conflict between Zhou Qi and the Xinjiang team is too hot, and if such a thing continues to happen, it will have a negative impact on the development of Chinese sports. Therefore, whether it is the basketball association or the General Administration of Sports, no one will oppose Yao Ming's decision. Yao Ming became a big winner between Zhou Qi and the Xinjiang team, and he could realize his dream for many years and help CBA players set up their own union to defend their rights and interests.
Looking back now, the basketball association's involvement in Zhou Qi and the Xinjiang team may also have deep meaning. According to domestic media people, the Chinese Basketball Association will make a major decision to establish a player union, and several former national players will serve as representatives of the players' union, and the media person also sighed, "After Yao Ming, chairman of the basketball association, took office, he has always advocated the establishment of a player union, and after the Zhou Qi rights protection incident, we finally waited, looking forward to the union organization can speak out and protect the rights and interests of our players."
Therefore, if there is an incident similar to Zhou Qi in the domestic basketball industry in the future, if there is a disagreement with the club, you can find the players' union to help uphold justice. Yao Ming was once one of the best players in the NBA, he also knows the NBA league, Yao Ming hopes to build the CBA into the world's top basketball league, although there is a long way to go, as long as you work hard, you will definitely close the gap. The domestic players' union has just been established, and the operation will not be particularly mature, and it will take time to accumulate players, but this is at least a good signal that players can trust the union organization, which is conducive to resolving conflicts with the team.
After all, although Li Meng intervened in Zhang Long's marriage, she did not violate the law, and Zhang Long's ex-wife exposed Li Meng's private photos on social media, if you do not go through legal procedures, you can let the players' union mediate from it, so that the matter has an additional channel to solve. In short, after the establishment of the domestic players' union, the people who benefited the most were CBA players and basketball players from other leagues.
Although the development of Chinese basketball in recent years is not particularly fast, it is also a step by step, the women's basketball team has become the runner-up in the World Cup, and the men's basketball team is still a relatively competitive team in Asia. Yao Ming has contributed a lot, and now, he is ready to take a new step to help Chinese basketball take it to the next level!
