Live broadcast on July 24 News “China Newsweek” reporter Ye qofeng published a article about this year’s CBA draft conference.
Among them, Ye qomeng revealed that a management staff of CBA team said that the teacher investment and training level of college basketball team could not be compared with CBA professional team after all.
Part of the original text is as follows:
When discussing with people in the basketball industry, China Newsweek learned that although the CBA draft conference has developed for 9 years and made great progress, CBA teams still generally believe that, it is difficult to select excellent players through the draft.
The above-mentioned CBA team management person told China Newsweek: “On the one hand, the teacher investment and training level of college basketball teams cannot be compared with CBA professional teams.”
He gave an example: “As far as I know, the annual investment of some strong college basketball teams is probably at the level of several 100,000 yuan, covering a team of people eating horses, go out to train competitions and other aspects. Under such a budget, it is difficult for a college student player who needs to take into account reading to meet the training competition intensity required by the professional team, and it is more difficult to improve rapidly under such conditions.”
Another problem he mentioned was that college players were generally older when they ran for the election. “Whether it is a 22-year-old senior graduate or a 24-26-year-old graduate, this age technology has been basically stereotyped, and there is not much room for cultivation. The requirement of the professional team is to ‘come and fight on’. Instead of this, the professional team is better to cultivate people by themselves.”
Why Chinese college students can only participate in the talent show after graduation from undergraduate or graduate students is also because the Education Department has rigid regulations. “Domestic universities must complete their credits within 4 years and pass the defense before they can graduate. They cannot leave school as flexibly as they do abroad and delay graduation.”
The consensus in the industry is that it is difficult for CBA clubs to regard draft as an important source of talent supplement due to the limitation of the training level and age of college students’ players. “This also explains why teams with enthusiasm for the CBA draft conference and higher participation are generally those with relatively weak youth training strength, Young Pioneer Team history background and lack of attention.” Fu Zhenghao said.
The current CBA stipulates that there are only two ways for a Chinese player to participate in the CBA league: either to sign up for the draft publicly or to prove that he is a youth team from a club in CBA. Under such circumstances, there has been such a phenomenon in recent years: if a CBA team wants to get talented college players, it is necessary to carry out the action of “digging corners” in advance, strive to register this player as your youth team player before the draft.
However, if you do not dig in advance, only through the draft channel normally, each team needs to pick people in turn according to the ranking of past achievements. In this case, the team can choose the “right person” without ensuring “.
There are men’s basketball Xinjiang players Qi Lin in the public cases that have been discussed in the industry. After finishing his freshman year in Tsinghua University, he voluntarily dropped out of school and joined the Xinjiang men’s basketball youth team. In addition, Zhang Chen Zhifeng and Huang Qiushi dropped out of Tsinghua University and Shanghai Jiaotong University respectively to join the Liaoning youth team. “Geniuses” had been booked by the youth teams of the professional team before the draft, which also led to the further reduction of the overall strength of the players participating in the draft.
“If you change people and families and give up your college diploma, you really need to weigh it carefully. But they even dare to give up the diplomas of famous universities like Tsinghua University and Shanghai Jiaotong University, which are very “Jin Gui”, for two reasons.” Fu Zhenghao analyzed and said, “First, you can get a satisfactory contract in advance; Second, from the perspective of competition, you can receive the training of CBA career system earlier, so as to improve the skills and strength.”
According to Public Information, CBA officials have a salary guidance price for draft players, with the number one being 500000 RMB/year. However, if a talented player “bypasses” the draft and joins the youth team of the professional team in advance, and there are many teams bidding for each other, the income level may be higher than the official guiding price of CBA.
