2024-25 season is the 30th season of the CBA. The first year of the CBA was the 1995-96 season.
"Slam Dunk" was serialized from 1991 to 1996.
The final battle between Shohoku and Ryonan in the manga coincided with the first year of the CBA.
In the first year of the CBA, which was the year "Slam Dunk" ended, the MVP was Hu Weidong from Jiangsu, and then Gong Xiaobin from Shandong competed with him.
Then came the era of Wang Zhizhi, the War God, the Tiger King, and Yao Ming, followed by Liu Wei, Du Feng, Zhu Fangyu, Hu Xuefeng, Tang Zhengdong, and Mo Ke, who emerged one after another.
At that time, Shanghai had Saeliuss, Guangdong had Wei Wen, and later Jichen, Liaoning had the Dunk King James, Shanghai had Alston, and Jilin had the Triple-Double King Luo De.
At that time, Bayi was invincible until Yao Ming appeared, until Hart hit the championship shot in 2002.
If you compare the characters in "Slam Dunk" to real life, you would notice that the heights in SD are relatively short: Sakuragi Hanamichi, who is 188 cm tall, plays the power forward position, Akagi Takenori, who is 197 cm tall, plays the center position, and Morishige Hiroshi, who is 199 cm tall and 100 kg, is hailed as a treasure of Japan. In the whole series, only Yuizumi and Kogure reach a height of 2 meters.
"But what's so special about being over 2 meters?" But SD was serialized from 1991 to 1996.
In the 1994 Asian Games, the tallest player on the Japanese team was only 199 cm.
At that time, the second center of the Chinese men's basketball team, Wu Naiqun and Gong Xiaobin, were over 2 meters tall, and the War God Liu Yudong, who was 198 cm tall, was unbeatable in Asia. The Chinese men's basketball team in the year 1994, which made it to the top 8 in the world, had only Dan Tao and Ji Minshang, who are over 2 meters tall.
At the 1994 Asian Games, South Korea had a 207 cm tall player named Huh Jang-hoon, who was considered a gem: finally, they had a giant over 2 meters tall! Then the Chinese men's basketball team brought out Battelle, who is 210 cm tall, as well as Wang Zhizhi, who was even taller than Battelle and could run and jump. The mobile Great Wall.
After the end of the SD serialization in 1998, Japan's men's basketball team naturalized Michael Takahashi in an attempt to challenge the Chinese men's basketball team. Michael Takahashi was even referred to as the Japanese Jordan by the Japanese media - after all, his name is Michael!
On December 12, 1998, in Taipei, Chinese Taipei defeated Japan with a 9-point difference, 72-63. Taiwan's Jordan, Zheng Zhilong, played exceptionally well.
On December 16, Chinese men's basketball team defeated Chinese Taipei with a 40-point difference, 99-59.
9 points.
40 points.
It's clear at a glance.
In the final of the 1998 Asian Games, the Chinese men's basketball team easily defeated South Korea with a score of 112-92, winning the Asian Games championship. In the final of the 1999 Asia Championship, Chinese men's basketball team defeated South Korea once again, with a score of 63-45, becoming the Asian champions. Hu Weidong was the MVP of the Asia Championship.
At that time, South Korea, the second best team in Asia, was basically twenty points behind China; and Japan, compared to China, had a difference of thirty to forty points. At that time, Hu Weidong was invincible in Asia.
In the 1999-2000 season, Yao Ming began to dominate the CBA. In that year's CBA, Yao Ming was the king of three categories: rebounds, dunks, and blocks, while Hu Weidong was the king of three categories: scoring, three-pointers, and steals. Two years later, Yao Ming defeated the invincible Bayi Rockets to win the championship, and the CBA no longer posed a challenge for him, so he went to the NBA.
The most glorious moment of Coach An Xi's career was the full Japanese national team. The "Japanese Youth Team" that Rukawa can use to show off in front of Sakuragi in "Slam Dunk" was probably nothing compared to the Chinese men's basketball team and the CBA at the turn of the century.
In the 2006 World Championships, Japan had three legends.
-Tensai Shooting Guard Aikawa Norihiro, who didn't start playing basketball until high school (just like Sakuragi Hanamichi and Morishige Hiroshi), became the top scorer in the high school league in his senior year and led Saitama Ryonan High School to the top 8 in the national tournament. Is he more of a legend than Sakuragi Hanamichi and Morishige Hiroshi? Even "Slam Dunk" wouldn't dare to create such a character, right? Has the manga come to life? Makoto, Sendoh, Rukawa, and Sakuragi can't even compare to him, right? He continued playing basketball until he was nearly 50 years old before retiring.
-The Japanese men's basketball team had a legendary pair of brothers in the frontcourt, Jyoji Takeuchi and Kosuke Takeuchi, who were nicknamed the "Twin Towers of Japan". Both of them were over 2 meters tall and caused a sensation in Japan since high school, joining the national team at the age of 20. The River Field brothers in SD are no match for them, right?
In the 2006 World Championships, Norihiro Aikawa was the top scorer for the Japanese men's basketball team, with 61 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 assists in five games.
The Takeuchi brothers, combined, scored 58 points, 48 rebounds, and 5 assists in five games.
Including Norihiro Aikawa, the three of them scored a total of 119 points, 53 rebounds, and 8 assists.
Yao Ming alone scored 152 points, 54 rebounds, and 9 assists. He became the top scorer of the 2006 World Championships.
Imagine a combination of all the qualities of the genius guards in SD, plus an upgraded version of the River Field brothers.
Japan's former pride, the presence of "Slam Dunk" characters in real life, when their numbers are combined, is no match for Yao Ming alone.
This is the sense of familiarity that Yao Ming has when he enters the world of "Slam Dunk". It is also the gap between Chinese and Japanese basketball in the past.
Since then, eighteen years have passed.
