Yao Ming of Shanghai in 2002, the United States, on the plane and my phone just two people talking about the end of the game shortly before the hated child itching straight teeth. Blood in the hands of the hero sword feeling very well connected to gas. Solutions that time I had just finished his first and only time men's basketball at the Asian Games may be the final stage of the Chinese men's basketball in Busan South Korea to reverse the boat, which was a lot of races people play a crucial time, as field after the game, started a new life, the NBA has become his life can not avoid an integral part of the United States each year traveling between the two countries, and that game also began to enter the new life: NBA and CBA has become the league's interpretation of my life an integral part can not be avoided, although most of my time is explained in the study, but I'm worried about the basketball side, in fact, because Yao Ming in the NBA began its new journey and a new life began to rise. We must recognize that the year began, the trajectory of our lives have changed. Despite the different levels, but enough to become a historical memory.
Now, eight years later, our life has to happen again milestone changed?
Thanks, good luck, take care
2002 to 2008, considered the most beautiful 6 Yao Ming, and most of his body fatigue for 6 years. Others regarded him as a spokesman for the company image appeared on a representative picture of the situation in China, and continue to accept a challenge, follow the harvest of hope. So he began to fatigue and memorable selectively by the public, can only remember his glorious image, the tall trunk, and represent business value.
In 6 years, Yao Ming difficult to overcome cultural differences, racial barriers and the distance between countries, continue to adapt to the scale. The Shanghai team player has no privilege, no, the reality of both the Rockets. personal life of almost ascetic, in general, within six years: the game, training, business … … to relax in other ways to eat and sleep, almost the rest of the play Warcraft and reading, Yong Jin and family rate is almost the same name, the Rockets, the team of Shanghai and the national team, not least and his NBA-level players with ten live thousands of times than a day, just had to ensure high strength and high density operations of two lanes. In the U.S., strategies of Olympic team mate just do not understand why the matter, he kept his head coach with the action and even behind the ACB when he was director of the Chinese basketball head in the face of public will always be necessary to beat standing on high ground on the front, there can be problems are not allowed to go wrong.
Went to the United States when the first, Gesanchawu to be called, is something less time playing, excited and curious about most. See example Olajuwon, took a picture, he was satisfied from ear to ear, the first time All-Star, was elected to head the Chinese fans, he could hear the microphone on the anxiety and agitation, "said that he let out a position O'Neal ah? to say how long I can play … ah … "The speech, Jordan was standing before him, saying that replacing the old, deflating the lips, raising question as to find that feeling, Jordan shook his hand, he thought for a long time said:" Thank you, good luck, take care of yourself "and later a trial of strength do not like to say a few words. Saw a household name, playing against an opponent who is far away, there's a lot of questions, an interest group, which based on their own understanding of the NBA a bit to respond, to the right when the task is, the old Cat Mobley is an SUV in second place, listened in surprise, Maurice Taylor, then how in the scene of the boat, not heard to believe, Rice how to become a Dinghaishenzhen Hornets, I listened fascinated paused; Mark Jackson and Miller, then with the Pacers swept the east, he heard the happy Hot, Olajuwon said in one breath to escape from Seattle, Toronto, Orlando, Ewing was removed, he heard a sigh, said: "Nowhere is this sad? "Big Yao, today, do not suffer?
Yao, we are very happy
It can be such a good mood will not be too frequent or too long, the state of the body appear again and again repeated.
2002-2005, he missed only two games, starting in 2005, almost a farm field in my heart to see him play to grab his audience: the summer of 2005 Summary of the left ankle, bone spurs, in December 2005 left a lesion foot, 2006 turns left foot injury after his right leg in December 2006 fractures of the tibia; 2008 stress fracture in his left foot, and then forced to return to the Olympics. The summer of 2009, when the Lakers fractured left foot, and then the summer for major surgery, rest for one year, until the stress fracture, the same parts of the second fracture.
In such circumstances, rarely complained, or the attitude of not wasting every second training was to restore the file.
Over the years, rarely seeing him do a waste of time, fewer meetings and greetings, and more training hard and bloody sweat, the NBA and the operations team from two lanes to long term, I think, perhaps the main factor in overwork. Maybe someone will use the 2006 and 2008, Manu Ginobili Pau Gasol to make counter-examples, in fact, I have this problem were discussed with both parties, a mention of them put his hand on this, the word and the line: "Yao We do not know how many times to be happy!"
Talk to the facts: after quarter of 2004 Olympics Gasol played only 56 games, the 2006 World Championships after an injury to play 59 games next season. After the 2008 Olympic Games, Ginobili played 44 games this season, but Yao Ming: Bone spurs in the 2005 Asia Championship after surgery did not break the summer of 2006, surgery has been injured left toe after the World Championships did not break the summer of 2008, the return of the tension of the Olympic Games less than six months after the fracture.
I also used to say something?
Only one of his listeners, I hope I can continue apace, with an average of 20 + 10, All-Star every year until the championship. As a commentator, told me the years many of his games with him and even explain the 2008 NBA All-Star Game in New Orleans, their strengths and weaknesses, I have been honest, even though many people do not listen to the contents Me said he would only say good words, but as a friend of his, I only hope, however, was able to avoid the damage possible to your body, the sooner the better, better, the more active the better. Performance of clouds in general health and safety is the best return of the day.
National Cheng Kung University thing that makes you suffer
I have always believed that professional players in the dark is very cruel, brilliant than was feeding the package, if not the best players like Michael Jordan, then a nerve regeneration capacity bulk of the powerful will also be a wide gap between total defeat, the total air flow was rain and wind to the feeling, do not want to accept that they must accept, is willing to face to face. And with age, the invasion of the lesion, the natural law is that nobody can escape. Like the trees, and then dry stout is a day lost, and fallen leaves, do not risk the tree is?
He broke into the eyes were beginning to understand this giant of their experiences before and after all, to be experienced, but a drop in the ocean. Were in the ACB and the national team, who learned from there, Zhang Jinsong Titans defense of "basic equality in life in the face," the last word, how difficult is strong in the paint with his mouth open and teeth of efforts to fight opponents, playing NBA legend and star of the party of preparing a team, you can sink Buck Williams, the chin, which was in 2000, I asked him how he does not hide, Yao eyebrow a notch, "He did not succeed in hiding it! disfigurement does not matter who originally did not look handsome," and never see how much they care, not expecting to enter the NBA million , the distortion of the things that do not meet several times, the painful dilemma that he was proud of his legs and feet.
Yao Ming to the NBA before, when the experts agreed, said: The advantage of Yao Ming is the largest horse-drawn carriage, thick, powerful legs, long although there is no strong attachment of the Achilles tendon, but not as many of his admired predecessors NBA diseases knee problems. Not really, but it seems that everyone forgot Asians are physically different with the black-Tahan, once the density of the large muscles, bones and joints are also subject to a different question, not to mention that this is not a bodybuilding competition, the struggle of muscle control lines parts more clearly indicate the preference could not stop big game against the high court will make players kill the affordability of the lower extremity joints are extremely vulnerable .
So the original prediction and optimistic, and is now a sad reading.
Again and again, Yao Ming fell to the explosion of the ground, rolling in pain. Tim Thomas was the knee pads, your feet stepped on so many people have volunteered in many people, is suspected of osteomyelitis and had a career crisis, but again and again, he turned abruptly against a lot of people puzzled eyes, as his unit was delivered in 2009 the first round of the playoffs this difficult period, the first semi-final against the Lakers, the last minute was more pain in the knee, team doctor, Keith Jones allowed return to his dressing room confused finger firmly pointing the same direction that the site was no turning back again, come back in Top Gun.
But it came down to hurt is still the largest of its body, which is also unchanged.
Since 2004, fewer calls to the issues, I have to admit, living in this league of the NBA, is definitely more of what I know, you do not give me the opportunity to study books package. occasional exchanges, mostly concentrated in the new line coach Jeff Van Gundy of the devil, when Van Gundy, Yao Ming, with an indescribable respect. Training for your eyes only, under the command of Van Gundy has always been a model and example, while Francis and Van Gundy head cat isolation Mobulila it, shake it like a rattle. Van Gundy and his assistants Xi Yao Ming proud Bodu very vigilant in the market can reduce the "20 +10″ the monster, but also whether it has become increasingly tired. They saw Yao Ming is sweeping the year as Patrick Ewing in New York as the Quartet, which can never mind his injury, only that he feels comfortable on the court. A classic joke: Yao Ming to play in New Jersey is home to the referee blew the whistle, but not yet urgent, Van Gundy on anxiety, true to his lower body to criticize the referee, the referee said he was anxious I Zaim criticize you let your appearance, ah! Van Gundy said that sort of type of harassment will not listen to my heart, I called you? I tell you to call, not only now, was sent to the room to call you, the end of the game they call me, call me Zaim enough for you! Swept away in the next Yao Ming was fined hear the music of blues spray, said: "Why did you phone numbers to call to listen ah"
Over the rivers and lakes
The two always joke: "do his thing Rights National Cheng Kung University, you will suffer." Words 8 years, and now sounds a bit harsh. Even if a year away from the basketball court, but one year has nothing to do with the games, as smart as you may know that his life and basketball can not be separated, no matter now rampant in the "retired said, "it is true. Take the simplest example: It was decided to buy when the Shanghai team, the entire brokerage team of people raised their hands in opposition, and even family members disagree, thinking that shot several times, eventually decided to your choice. In his own words: No matter what past experience, whatever happens next, I will not forget his team in Shanghai years, from nothing to become the national champion.
Last year, the season, he looked every day in Shanghai and Beijing are economics and management books, as seen before Lao She's "my life", because without haste, and several times to reflect . I think that their families as a team to treat people who can not speak. No matter where you work, or those who care about things.
He remembered an old friend of former coach of Shanghai, the process of the championship flag at home liter as Li Qiuping go directly to cancel, she said "no Qiuping, the thing is not fair", I thought League play Yi Jianlian first time I played in Shanghai, Yao Ming's jersey ceremony retirement destination, always realistic to let you off guard, always lost Hua Germany, I listen to the players to win the Asian Games Hua Germany launched across the Atlantic in his happy to say: "Although I have nothing but how to say is that what led to the ACB, of course, I wish you success! "The great Zhi has been thinking, talking about the past inevitably slow fascinating duels, I told Big Zhi is also very affectionate, he said he was concerned about his injuries, he sighed and said:" We were only in rivers and the sea lakes, right? "
The sea in rivers and lakes? Or are forgotten in the sand? At any time, forget themselves in the rivers and lakes exist only in our ideal of at Stankovic Cup in 2008, when he was comfortable driving tour of the West Lake is not too realistic, as the whole world Liu Wei wedding slapstick joke operators happy is not easy too realistic, it is possible, just to look for basketball, though difficult, despite the fatigue, just to find the most real and practical sense. 8 years in the past that has traces to prove it true. In these 8 years, so if you're friends or the interviewer and interviewee, and irrespective of our way of life changed was the amount, but little by little before 8 years and will get people through the years , small streams in silence.
Yao Ming, I really can not call, how long you can fight, I know, I do not know. The fact that we all know the time in your account, without waiting anxiously. What's more, I want to know the bad news. In these 8 years, basketball that brought him? He told a conference in an interview saying, "I'm not dead yet, now I drink beer to eat fried chicken, you want to see buried? "So even though our life may be the need to track changes in a place, I have no feelings of sadness, because we also have youth basketball gives us the lofty sentiments and aspirations, has been strongly marked as tattoos in general , down, penetrate the skin and blood, at a place called the heart to stay.
