Cutting-edge ** guests criticize CBA referees: Why don't you dare to say anything wrong?
On February 17, Beijing time, former Chinese men's national basketball team player Meng Duo ushered in a special guest in his self-made program "Meng See You", Dong Hanlin, who once had the title of Yi Jianlian's first person. In the program, Dong Hanlin bluntly pointed out the problem of referees in the CBA league, and said that if players do not speak up about the referee's problems, their sports careers may be ruined. His remarks caused heated discussions among many fans, many of whom expressed the same feelings, but some people raised different opinions.
Dong Hanlin introduced his playing experience in Guangdong Hongyuan at the beginning of the program "Meng Sees You". Mr. Dong said he initially only wanted to travel to Guangdong and had been accepted by the university. However, through relatives, he entered the trial of the Guangdong Hongyuan youth team, and stayed in the team for the next three years, playing in the youth team and the national youth team, and also participated in winter training and special training in the United States. It wasn't until he entered the Guangdong Hongyuan first team and won the championship with the team that he had the opportunity to return to his hometown of Inner Mongolia again. This experience gave Dong Hanlin a deeper understanding of the refereeing issues in the CBA league.
In the first four seasons of his career, Dong Hanlin shot more than 60% from the field, including a shooting rate of 59 in his first season4%, which is very impressive in the CBA league. In addition, Dong Hanlin won the MVP of the CBA All-Star Game for two consecutive years, and is the first player in the history of the CBA League to win the MVP of the Star Rui Game twice.
Dong Hanlin was also selected for the national team and won the gold medal with the team at the 2018 Asian Games.
In the interview, Dong Hanlin openly pointed out the problems of CBA referees, and he said that although the CBA league has faced up to the mistakes of referees, these mistakes are not allowed to be spoken out by players. In his opinion, this is to cover his ears and steal the bell.
Dong Hanlin mentioned the referee's on-the-spot problems and level problems, saying that these problems are acceptable, but if it involves bias issues, why can't they be said? He called on the CBA league to clean up internally, deal with these problems, and not give so many opportunities to the referees or coaches in question.
These remarks elicited a response from many fans. Some fans said that Dong Hanlin's remarks can only be said after retirement. On the other hand, some fans said that Yao Ming has been mixed in the United States for so many years, but he still faces the CBA's refereeing problems after returning to China, indicating that the CBA's reform has a long way to go. There are also fans who believe that only by looking directly at the problem can the CBA league solve its own problems.
The problem of referees can affect the image of the entire CBA league and can also affect the development of players. For example, a competition may ruin an athlete's life, and this sentence has also resonated with many people.
Dong Hanlin's speech in the program "Meng Sees You" once again aroused the attention of fans to the issue of CBA referees. How to solve this problem, the CBA league and all stakeholders need to think together. Only by being open and honest can we truly solve the problem and make the CBA league more perfect.
