Referee has always been a controversial position in the whole CBA or the whole China sports world. Referee in CBA playoff has reduced the credibility of this profession a lot. Although Chairman Yao has been trying hard to do a good job in judging, this historical problem cannot be solved in one day or two.
Extended data
The main source of CBA referees is the Basketball Association's referee talent pool, because there are not many international referees registered in China, for example, there are only 74 referees registered this year, so basically all the referees in the Basketball Association's talent pool have the opportunity to enforce CBA, and the threshold will not be too high.
CBA referees are mostly part-time, including university professors and PE teachers. It is precisely because this team has not been professional so far, and most of the personnel relations of these referees are local, so it is not surprising that there will be "home whistle" and "partial whistle".
After taking office, Yao Ming has begun to train young referees and promote the professional development of referees. We also believe that perhaps in the near future, the referee's controversy will gradually dissipate.
