Now it seems that Zhou Qi was selected by the NBA 43 second round and went to the Rockets 9 years ago. Is it right or wrong?

being selected by the NBA is naturally a huge honor for CBA players.

However, for a second round pick, it is actually a "big question" to go to the NBA after the selection.

For example, Zhou Qi was selected by the NBA second round pick 43 and went to the Rockets. After that, he spent most of his time playing in the Development League.

Now, 9 years have passed, is it right or wrong to re-evaluate Zhou Qi's choice to go to the NBA as a second round pick? What do you think of

Zhou Qi?

Zhou Qi talked about the topic of going to the NBA back then in an interview with Yang Yi and Yang Jian.

He said a few things:

First, he knew that he did not have the strength to stay in the NBA;

Second, he insisted on going to the NBA;

Third, he believed that the advantage was to broaden his horizons;

Fourth, the NBA experience was of great help to his going to the Australian League to play in the NBL.

Zhou Qi also made it clear that when he went to the NBA, the CBA club did not agree, and he did not receive much support and help from the outside world.

can be understood as Zhou Qi's biggest gain in choosing to go to the NBA lies in his psychological experience, which is a rare life experience.

's strength has been improved?

Zhou Qi went to the NBA and did not stay.

So, is it helpful for Zhou Qi's personal strength improvement?

At present, it is not obvious.

Zhou Qi went to the NBA, and the Rockets arranged for Zhou Qi to shoot outside the 3-point line to open up space.

Judging from the future of Zhou Qi playing in international competitions, CBA and Australian League, this arrangement did not help Zhou Qi improve his external capabilities.

After Zhou Qi went to the NBA, the power of participating in international competitions did not increase significantly, and of course did not decrease. Have

increased injuries?

NBA obviously requires more physical requirements for players, so naturally it requires Zhou Qi to strengthen strength training.

Judging from Zhou Qi's own interview and Zhou Qi's professional experience, Zhou Qi is actually intolerant of physical training.

Although it is not easy to make a direct conclusion, Zhou Qi was injured because he went to the NBA, it is obvious that the training and game intensity of the NBA have too high requirements for Zhou Qi's physical limit.

If Zhou Qi continues to play in the CBA, and does not go to the NBA, the CBA player is selected and does not go to the NBA, Wang Zhelin is a player of the same generation as Zhou Qi.

Wang Zhelin basically did not suffer too much injury when he played in the CBA.

Then, if Zhou Qi did not go to the NBA, he would most likely win 1-2 more CBA championships in the CBA, and this probability is still very high.

He may not have that many injuries.

His performance in the CBA and national team may also be slightly higher than that now.

Overall, the

CBA players choose to pursue their dreams in the NBA, which is obviously commendable.

Previously, Ding Yanyuhang and Cui Yongxi were both injured in the NBA, which had a great impact on themselves. Zhou Qi is no exception.

Zhou Qi went to the NBA, the positive meaning was greater than the negative, which was worthy of recognition. Although it cannot be compared with Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi, it is worth it.
