中国喜欢打球的本来就多，这样一来，数量就更大了。不要说在大城市，就算偏僻的乡村，都有NBA的粉丝。所以现在NBA的中国元素越来越多，不仅有球员，还有很多中国厂商去投广告。而且现在还有挺多大球星都成了中国品牌的代言人。

And at the same time, the NBA has affected a lot of people's opinions on playing ball. In the past, no one really thought there was anything great about playing ball. No one thought of making it into a job. But these days, a lot of parents send their kids to NBA training classes, and have them get training starting in childhood. They hope that one day they'll be able to play in the NBA and become an outstanding star player.
