Why is it difficult for the NBA to have basketball superstars like Jordan Kobe?

It has to be said that with the development of technology and the increase in entertainment methods, it is becoming increasingly difficult for basketball players to become widely known to everyone.

Why were Jordan and Kobe admired by many people and liked by others? To a large extent, it was because there were not many ways to entertain in that era, and there were very few things that everyone could play.

Without smartphones, the Internet, games and other industries are not very developed, so many people will devote their energy to the sports arena.

Every weekend, staying next to the TV and watching football games is also an important entertainment channel for people.

When people focus all their attention and focus on the field, it is normal for basketball superstars to be well-known.

However, by now, this situation will no longer occur. The diversification of games and entertainment methods has made sports events "dispensable".

I asked my friends around me how many people there are now who are watching the NBA? As a result, only 20% of people would say they would watch NBA games regularly. In addition, about 30% of fans will say that they don’t watch the regular season, but only watch the playoffs, and the teams where the stars they like will be in will be watched.

If you don't know anything, you won't read it if you don't like it.

In other words, nearly half of people don’t usually watch NBA games, and some friends even told me that since Yao Ming retired and left the NBA, I have never watched NBA games and have never seen a formal game.

Under such a situation, how many people can really pay attention to the NBA? Actually, there is no, the relative proportion is very small.

In reality, I have fewer and fewer friends who love basketball around me. After entering social work, everyone's attention will not be focused on basketball, and they have to work hard for life, which will make it very difficult for basketball superstars to become out of the circle.

Excluding the reason for diversification of entertainment methods, there is another reason that I think is also very important, which is the football skills themselves.

Whether it is basketball or football, if an athlete wants to become a player, he must base his skills as "outstanding the crowd", which is both ornamental and super personal expression.

Both must be possessed at the same time before they can be said to be appreciated by non-fans and remembered in their minds.

Like my dad is like this.

He is not a fan and is not familiar with the NBA at all. So far, there are very few stars who can know. Jordan, Kobe, McGrady and O'Neal are the few stars he can know.

These stars all have a characteristic, that is, their skills are very outstanding and eye-catching. Whether it is their skills or figure, you can tell at a glance that they are invincible and unstoppable.

His superb skills can make people breathtaking.

If an NBA star wants to become a world-class player, he basically has to reach this level before he can be said to be familiar with him.

From this standard, only a few stars such as Curry, James, and Jokic can meet this requirement, and these can barely become famous.

Alexander and others still cannot meet this standard. Even if they win the NBA championship, it is hard to say that they can be paid attention to by non-basketball fans.

Because these stars' skills have not yet reached the level of being out of the circle, they are still limited to the basketball itself. Those who love basketball and love watching basketball games will like it very much, but it is still very difficult to let non-fans appreciate it. There is still a considerable gap in football skills and abilities.

As long as your ball skills are as elegant as Jordan and Kobe and are particularly beautiful, they will be well-known; otherwise they will be limited to the basketball circle.

Anyway, I think it will be difficult for superstars like Jordan and Kobe to appear in the NBA in the future. The skills are one aspect, and it will be a problem to make many non-fans like you.

Of course, this does not mean that there is no chance.

For example, if you set up a social media account, interact with people frequently, chat with people, and take the people-friendly route, you may be more known.

Borrowing the breadth of public opinion spread on online social media is a good strategy, which may also allow athletes to become known to everyone.

Just like Nick Young's emoticon pack, I just don't know the person's expression. If I can reach this point, I think there will be hope for it to be widely known.
