In 2002, Yao Ming, the "Little Giant" from China, entered the NBA and became the first Asian player to be drafted number one in the NBA draft.
Meanwhile, an 18-year-old high school student, also from the East, was selected fifth overall.
This is the best of times: with stars like Duncan, O'Neal, and Kobe preceding them, and James, Durant, and Curry following them—a truly star-studded era…
This is also the worst of times: facing the Lakers' OK duo, the Spurs' GDP trio, the Celtics' Big Three, and the Cavaliers and Warriors' two powerhouse teams, a single star player has almost no hope of winning a championship...
But I am a high mountain, not a long river.
When encountering mountains, climb them; when encountering seas, cross them. I'd rather be a towering mountain than a river that winds its way into the sea!
You must climb that mountain like a warrior and prove to the world that you are the best point guard and the best player of this era!
