Time is always passing by inadvertently, and this is especially evident in the world of competitive sports: once the season starts, the games follow without giving any respite. As people move forward into 2020, the Champions League, CBA and WCBA games are also over.
Among them, the WCBA is particularly special, because the women's basketball girls will usher in a relatively long window period. In addition to the Lunar New Year holiday, the Chinese women's basketball team needs to regroup to prepare for the third stage of the Tokyo Olympic women's basketball tournament in Foshan from February 6 to 9. On December 26, the Chinese Basketball Association announced the 16-member training list of the women's national basketball team, and their training time is from January 3, 2020 to the start of the game.
In this list, in addition to Zheng Wei, the "old face of women's basketball", also appears in the women's basketball assistant coach column: Muratti-Adi Lijiang. Fans who often watch the CBA know that this big nose was once the tough player of the Xinjiang men's basketball team, but it is difficult to see him again after his quiet retirement.
In fact, Mulati has served as an assistant coach for women's basketball coach Xu Limin for about two years, and can be regarded as one of the heroes in the growth of the new generation of Chinese women's basketball team. What many people remember is that Mulati also played for a season in the Shanxi men's basketball team.
Before the start of the 2013-14 season, veteran Murati obeyed the team's arrangement and was put into the delisting conference in order to help the Xinjiang men's basketball team complete the "blood exchange" work. At that time, the Shanxi men's basketball team needed a strong flanking player, and in view of the successful experience of previously loaned Klan Baike, they had a crush on Muratti at a glance, so they recruited the latter into the team.
That's why Muratti added Shanxi jerseys to his wardrobe at the last moments of his playing career. The 2013-14 season also happened to be the second year that Li Ning took over the CBA league equipment in an all-round way, and after a brief run-in in the 2012-13 season, Li Ning launched a more sincere player version of the jersey this season, which not only redesigned the unique style for each team, but also added more details, which is the most textured CBA jersey in recent years.
With the help of my friends, I got a player's version of the Muratti Shanxi men's basketball jersey, which was also the first time I felt the CBA's player version of the jersey. The CBA LOGO and UPS details on the front are all available, which can be regarded as very "original".
From the refreshing back, Li Ning's sincerity in this jersey can also be felt. More interestingly, the 2013-14 season was the first phase of Beijing Holdings Group's attempt to run a CBA team on its own, when they first named the Shanxi men's basketball team, and then planned to acquire shares and move the team to Beijing. Finally, under the contest of various forces, the Shanxi men's basketball team stayed in the local area, and the Beijing Control Group turned its attention to Chongqing Aolong, and soon brought the team that was formerly known as guangzhou free people to Beijing.
As a player's version of the jersey, various details are naturally better than the fan version. The CBA jersey of the 2013-14 season began to use the process of "embroidery of team names and numbers", aiming to reflect the three-dimensional sense and increase the texture. This is reflected enough in the NBA jersey of the Adidas R30 material era. This operation has certain disadvantages: it increases the weight of the jersey, and also makes the inside stitches of the jersey give the player a foreign body feeling, but the advantage is to enhance the collection value of the jersey.
In response to this, Li Ning has a compromise choice, that is, the number and team name itself are made by means of embroidery of the edge cloth, but they are not directly embroidered on the jersey, but pasted on it, which is called "fake embroidery". At this point, the real embroidery part of the whole jersey is only Li Ning's own trademark.
Nevertheless, such a jersey is still very careful, because the whole dress uses a lot of fabric splicing of different colors and details, rather than printing and dyeing directly on the jersey on a white background, which increases the production process and the overall value.
In addition, Li Ning's jersey also imitates the production of the Adidas R30 jersey, and has a regular breathable sweat-wicking mesh on both sides, which is a design that cannot be seen in previous CBA jerseys.
As a comparison, I can compare it with a 2013-14 fan edition CBA jersey. In this Shanghai team fan version home jersey signed by Liu Wei, it can be seen that all team names and number logos are simply offset printed, and there is no mesh on the front, and the overall version is wide and ugly.
Through a game map of Liu Wei, it can also be seen that the fan version of the jersey is far from the player version in terms of design details, mainly reflected in the difference in the neckline. The neckline of the fan version is a simple V-neck, and the one on Liu Wei's body has a polygonal design at the neckline.
In addition, the fan version of the CBA LOGO is specially embroidered with a plastic patch of embossed feeling, and there is no UPS LOGO. The whole fan version of the jersey uses the ATDRY technology 3D moisture absorption and quick-drying material promoted by Li Ning, but it is far from enough for those who want to feel the original player version of the jersey.
In the end, however, Muratti only experienced this player's version of the shirt for just one season. In the 2013-14 season, Mulati played 25 games for Shanxi, averaging a career-low 1.2 points in 9.6 minutes per game. Maybe after that season he knew it was time for his playing career to end. In the summer of 2014, Muratti returned to the Xinjiang men's basketball team, transformed into an assistant coach of the team under the arrangement of the team, and then became a youth team coach, and opened a gym in his hometown in his spare time.
But fate will not let such a strong, ambitious person idle for too long. Xu Limin, who is inspired to re-enhance the status of the Chinese women's basketball team on the Asian and even world stages, approached Mulati in April 2018, hoping that the Xinjiang man can pass on his tenacious fighting spirit to a new generation of women's basketball players. Happily attending the appointment, Muratti lived up to expectations, and indeed did a variety of auxiliary details, and worked with Xu Limin to bring the Chinese women's basketball team back to the top of Asia, and also won the sixth place in the 2018 Women's Basketball World Cup. In the excitement, Muratti sent a Xinjiang dance to the women's basketball girls in the locker room is also an interesting past.
For Gotham City, there is only one Batman, and not everyone can take on it. But as strong as the old man also needs the assistance of Afu butler and Robin, if Muratti can't be Batman, then it is also a good choice to do a good job of Robin next to Xu Limin, just like he helped the Xinjiang men's basketball team rush to the CBA League and supported Battle and other main players.
