As the host of the last Shanghai Men's Basketball World Cup, China created the 24th worst record in history, which is not only the worst record for China men's basketball team to participate in the World Cup, but also the worst record for all hosts in the history of the World Cup. Yao Ming, the chairman of chinese basketball association, who was present at that time, once saw the poor performance of the men's basketball team on the court and shook his head helplessly, and his eyes were red.

Perhaps in Yao Ming's mind, he didn't expect the China men's basketball team to develop into what it is today. Many people don't know Yao Ming's historical achievements. It can be said that Yao Ming is the first man in the history of China men's basketball team in terms of personal achievement and international influence. If Yao Ming is not mentioned, who should be the second man in the history of China men's basketball team?

The second person who evaluates the history of China men's basketball team may have different answers in many people's minds. Older fans may think of Liu Yudong, Hu Weidong and even Mu, while younger fans will definitely be interested in Wang, Yi Jianlian, Bater or Sun Yue, Guo and others. Then we can see who is the second man in the history of China men's basketball team from several indicators.

First of all, as the second man in the history of China men's basketball team, you should have been in the NBA at least. At present, apart from Yao Ming, only Wang, Bater, Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue and others have been selected for the NBA. Among them, Wang is the first player in the Asian men's basketball team to enter the NBA. Bater and Sun Yue both won the championship. As for Yi Jianlian, they are the highest in the draft. As for qi zhou, who plays for the Rockets,

Secondly, it depends on the achievements of these people in the national team during the China men's basketball team. China men's basketball team won the top eight in the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, the 2004 Athens Olympic Games and the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, with the highest gold content in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Among them, Wang participated in 1996 and 2008 Olympic Games, Yi Jianlian participated in 2004 and 2008, and Bater participated in 1996. Sun Yue participated in the 2008 Olympic Games. Generally speaking, both Wang and Yi Jianlian followed the China men's basketball team to reach the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games twice. Therefore, these two men should be the second most promising candidates in China men's basketball team.

Historically, Wang was the first player in China's basketball history to enter the NBA. During the CBA, it also represented the brilliant achievements of Bayi Men's Basketball Team. Although Yi Jianlian's performance is also excellent, from a historical point of view, he should still be the No.2 man in China men's basketball team-Wang.
