Blog 3: Please Respect Those Who Love You

Last night, I watched CBA All-star Games on the Internet, which killed about three hours. I preferred to watch games rather than learn English or something. I wasted valuable time, but what did I get from it. A fantastic and exciting game? No! Players go all out in work for an award? No!

Well, in the Arising Star Challenge Game, young players played pretty well, they focused all attention and energy on the game, which showed youth’s passion and vigour. Nevertheless, in the next games---Technique Challenge and Dunk Challenge, oh, my god, what the hell were they doing? They dribbled so slowly like a snail.  No, the snails walk slowly as they cannot speed up, but they desired to walk faster. On the contrary, our players, they could have run even faster, but they do not do that. I could not see their desire to triumph. They didn’t treat a game as a game. The audiences spent money on a game to enjoy themselves in the weekend. They believed players they loved could show their skills and competence reveal fully to make a wonderful game. They made a blunder.

Of course, we have to acknowledge, compared to NBA player, Chinese players just like pupil. In NBA All-Star Games, players, whether he is a superstar like Kobe Bryant or ordinary star like Williams thing, they show what they can do heart and soul as they know audience love them and their games. They respect those who love them and they don’t want to disappoint them. This is basic professional spirit an athlete should obey. But I think many players in CBA have lost it, even they have not it at the beginning.

So, respect those who love you.
