Yao Ming, born on September 12, 1980 in Xuhui District, Shanghai, a basketball family, the father Yao Zhiyuan is 2.02 meters tall, once played for the Shanghai men's basketball team, the mother Fang Fengdi 1.88 meters tall, one of the main players of the Chinese women's basketball team in the 70s. Yao Ming completely inherited his parents' genes and talent for basketball.

At the age of 9, Yao Ming began to receive amateur basketball training at the Xuhui District Junior Sports School in Shanghai, where there was a food subsidy, Yao Ming's height began to get higher and higher, and his skills began to mature.
Yao Ming made his debut at the age of 13, when he played for the Shanghai Shark Junior Team in the Chinese Basketball League and began to play in official competitions. During this period, he trained hard every day, honed his skills, and his basketball IQ also improved by leaps and bounds at this time.

At the age of 18, he went to the United States to participate in basketball training at Nike Summer Camp. In the same year, as the main player of the Shanghai team, he won the 5th place in the National Men's Basketball A League and was selected into the Chinese Basketball Star Team, and from then on, Yao Ming began to officially enter his basketball career.

Entering the CBA's Shanghai Sharks and averaging 10 points and 8 rebounds per game in their rookie season, Yao Ming's third and fourth seasons in the CBA, the Sharks reached the CBA finals, but eventually lost to Wang Zhizhi's Bayi team.
In the 2001-02 season that followed, Yao Ming broke out completely, averaging 32 points and 19 rebounds per game, shooting 72% from the field, and finally led Shanghai to win the championship that year.
In 2002, he was 22 years old, which was not only a year that Yao Ming could not forget, but also a year that Chinese fans could not forget.
Because of Yao Ming's outstanding performance in the training camp, he was selected by the NBA Rockets as a champion, and in the top basketball hall of the NBA, it was ten million times more difficult than the Shanghai Tsinghua Peking University, and at this moment, the fans' eyes and expectations were all on this big man.
Yao Ming's debut in the NBA, against the Pacers, only got two rebounds and did not score, which caused great controversy in the major media for a time, and people began to be full of disappointment and doubts about this yellow-skinned big man, but Yao Ming, who was silent and steady, did not respond, but silently worked hard, because he knew that the best way to make others shut up was to use action.
In the end, fans also know that these trolls were madly punched in the face, yao ming's play is getting better and better, from many people questioning this bulky China mobile great wall, to finally becoming a loyal fan of Yao Ming, in addition, we are familiar with the Barkley pro-donkey incident, but also proves that Yao Ming's influence in the NBA is growing.
Of course, it is a pity that the combination of Yao Ming and Maddy, the combination of two superstars, if it were not for injuries, would probably win the championship of the year. Of course, time will not start again, Yao Ming is accompanied by serious injuries, and can only be slowly cultivated and withdraw from the ranks of winning the championship.
Since Yao Ming joined the national team, he has brought too many surprises and hopes to the Chinese national team, because most of the national team's games are in the offseason, for a long season of hard work, especially need off-season rest and adjustment.
However, for the honor and competition of the national team, Yao Ming would rather give up the rest of the offseason, actively prepare for the national competition, and lead the Chinese team to break into many competitions, the peak moment was the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the first game encountered the "Dream Eight Team".
As we all know, how strong the American team was that year, and in the first game at the doorstep, it must play a bloody game belonging to China, Yao Ming led Wang Zhizhi, Li Nan, Yi Jianlian and other players to fight with the United States, and in the first half, there was even a situation of rehabilitating and overtaking, so that the Chinese people saw the blood boiling.
Although the Chinese men's basketball team lost to the opponent by 31 points, it created the lowest point difference between the two teams in the Olympic Games, although the defeat was still glorious!
Looking back at the history of the Chinese men's basketball team to the present, I have to admit that in the period when Yao Ming led the national team, it was the peak period of Chinese basketball, and Yao Ming was the first person in Chinese basketball, and no one has been able to shake it so far.
On July 20, 2011, Yao Ming officially announced his retirement due to injury, officially ending his basketball career. Since then, Chinese basketball has also begun to enter a long period of decline, and now even the Olympic Games have not won the qualification...

On February 23, 2017, Yao Ming was elected president of the Chinese Basketball Association. This is also a huge change from a player to a manager, because when he took over, Chinese basketball needed great reform and progress, although he left the field, but did not leave the basketball.
For Yao Ming's appointment, letting people who understand the ball to manage the ball, of course, gives the Chinese people great expectations, he is also given high hopes, so he also bears a lot of pressure.
As soon as Yao Ming took office, he also began to rectify the national team, adopt a double national team, reform the CBA league, reform China's basketball referees, increase the training and training of youth basketball, and indeed see that basketball is becoming more and more common in the community, and has also achieved certain achievements.

During the leadership of Yao Ming, Chinese basketball won gold medals in the Asian Games for men's basketball, women's basketball, men's 3V3 and women's 3V3, and at this year's Tokyo Olympic Games, women's 3V3 basketball also achieved a record bronze medal, and women's basketball team also successfully advanced to the quarterfinals. In many ways, we can indeed see that Chinese basketball is improving.
Of course, for the Chinese men's basketball team, but to the fans brought great disappointment, 2019 regrettably lost the World Cup at home, missed this year's Tokyo Olympic Games, compared with the original Chinese men's basketball team, this is of course difficult for Chinese fans to accept, including some reforms of the CBA, there are also many deficiencies, in recent days also caused a lot of controversy.
Of course, the effectiveness of the reform takes a certain amount of time, I hope that the fans can give Chairman Yao some time, any reform will definitely have advantages and disadvantages, and I believe that the Chinese men's basketball team will definitely make progress, and I hope that Yao Ming can continue to write a legend that belongs to him and Chinese basketball!
For Yao Ming, it is more like a business card of China, a superstar who shows the image of China to foreigners, and his existence has far exceeded the identity of a basketball player.
In order to reform Chinese basketball and become the manager of basketball, he pushed out hundreds of millions of advertisements, profited the life and death of the country, and avoided it because of misfortune. Chinese men's basketball team come on, Yao Ming cheers!
