Rekindling the Dream of Becoming a Sports Star

To reach All-Star level in the NBA, one needs at least dominant stats in the CBA. The author's inclusion of high school players underscores the need for absolute dominance. Personally, I believe Chinese players need exceptional physical talent to succeed in the NBA. The author's suggestion that playing in amateur or college leagues fosters good skills is disagreeable.

For readers, the author's youth doesn't represent their own. If an author wants to make money and achieve success with their novels, they can't just write based on their personal imagination. Readers don't care about domestic high school leagues, or even university leagues. No matter how passionate your writing is, few people will read it because everyone knows its upper limit!

Then you either need exceptional writing skills, or if you don't write about the NBA, there's basically no basketball fiction left. How many people read sports fiction based on nostalgia? Most people just want to see the thrill of dominating the game.

As the title suggests, the author did a decent job of combining basketball expertise with the story, but the romantic subplot, especially the dance description, is truly full of flaws. The most glaring issue is that the author based the character on someone he knew in real life, meaning the author largely relied on his impressions when writing.

I've read over a hundred chapters, and I thought it would get even better once it entered the NBA, but I'm getting tired of it. The part I found most enjoyable was the section about playing high school and the NCAA in the US. The early chapters, in an attempt to create a sense of high-octane basketball, artificially inflated the perceived strength of domestic high school basketball, much like a…

Judging from his attitude towards Lin Xi, he's completely cowardly. He likes her, knows she's liked him in both his past and present lives, and knows she didn't have a good life in her previous life, giving him a chance to make amends. Yet, he still backs down, and his reasons are ridiculous—shyness and unnecessary trouble?

This must be the most professional and immersive basketball novel I've ever read.

I came across it on QQ Reading. It started off well, but got a bit off towards the end. Emotionally, Lin Xi was well-developed, but then came the martial arts. The business aspects weren't great either (at least for me, maybe others feel differently). Most importantly, didn't they inject a bit too much emotion into the basketball aspect?

I don't know how to express my initial motivation for writing basketball novels. I won't talk about my previous motivations, but let me talk about why I'm writing them now. I have friends in both real life and online who work in basketball-related fields, and I've noticed that everyone is working hard to cultivate an excellent player—parents, coaches, teachers, and even officials.

This book is indeed well-written. It avoids purely wish-fulfillment plots like jumping straight into the system and then immediately engaging in NBA games. The author's writing is strong, the storyline is rich, and the pacing is good, making it a truly enjoyable read. I hope the author keeps up the good work, maintains their pace, and doesn't let certain comments sway them.
