After 11 years of playing for his hometown team, Kolan Baker has officially registered. Joined in Shanghai.

　　According to the latest announcement of the CBA League, the contract signed between Kolan Bek and the Shanghai team is a 3+1 (club option).

Soon after the announcement, Kolan Bek posted a long post on his personal social media to say goodbye to his hometown team.

　　The title of the article is "Goodbye, Hometown; Nonghao, Shanghai". In his personal letter, he expressed his dissatisfaction with his hometown. At the same time, he said that he did not leave his hometown for a high salary. He has a clear conscience in Xinjiang for 11 years.

Kelan Baker sent a long message to bid farewell to his hometown team.

The full text is as follows:

　　I have imagined it many times when I say goodbye to everyone.

In my imagination, I should be an athlete who retired from Xinjiang Feihu Men's Basketball Team, not a transfer player like I am now.

The next stop of my career, everyone should know the player dynamics-Shanghai Jiushi Shark Basketball Club.

　　My expectations for the new stage of my life are true, and my dissatisfaction with my hometown is also true.

Everything happened so suddenly, I didn't have time to prepare, and it was true to make too many choices!

The interval between the two seasons is too short. Coupled with the epidemic, I can’t even go back to Urumqi to clean up my team’s house for many years and be friendly and authentic with my relatives and friends.

Everyone can't get rid of the brand of birth, regardless of success or failure.

Xinjiang, the place where I was born, where I grew up, where I started, where I lingered in dreams, you will always be the starting point for engraving my life and pursuing dreams.

　　16 years ago, when I first came to Urumqi to attend junior high school, when I was homesick, I always thought of the huge grape trellis in the bungalow courtyard of Atushi's hometown.

Especially when this season is approaching autumn, it will become green and full of grapes.

When I was a child, I lived in the sports committee compound. I had extensive exposure to sports. I practiced track and field, boxing, football and even volleyball. Later, I was able to choose basketball. It was a very lucky thing in my life.

Because basketball not only changed my destiny, but also reshaped my character.

You may not imagine that I was completely different from my childhood.

I was the youngest in my family and I grew up with my sisters. Everyone in the family took good care of me. Perhaps this was the reason why I was weak and fearful.

I used to cry when I was a kid. Adults would cry even if they said something cruel... Haha, you must never think of it!

　　So I want to thank basketball.

It allows you to better shape yourself and find your inner strength.

Questions and criticism, like spotlights and cheers, can stimulate your potential.

And when you step up a step and see farther, your desires will become bigger and bigger. By then, difficulties and challenges will be enjoyed by you.

Urumqi is where I have struggled for 16 years.

I have to thank a lot of people today. Coach Wang Wei, who brought me to the Second High School of the Corps, and coach Yao, who led me to the professional team, is the coach Jiang Xingquan.

Not long after I finished my first year of high school, he was promoted to the first team by the triple jump.

Everything came too fast, and I have not prepared enough.

At the time, I was in the early 80s, thin, barely any basic skills, talent, consciousness, and skills were quite different. And I had always been a center in middle school. Maybe I just entered the team and had nothing to do with the defensive label.

It's easy to make mistakes as soon as you play, and you can't get out of the pit even after paying too much tuition.

　　After that was the "Sanlianya". Although I was very junior in the team at the time, it seemed that the championship should not be considered by a small person like me, but I really wanted to win a championship for Xinjiang.

To be precise, the atmosphere of the team made me clear my mission as soon as I joined the team.

　　The championship is what I am most eager to pursue. The desire for a championship is far higher than my desire for personal honor. That desire is really unparalleled. After all, the foundation of all this is the back of my hometown jersey on my chest!

2017 is the year when our dreams come true.

That feeling, I think about it, is probably like the feeling that your child has finally grown up.

Those few days were really so excited that I was celebrating every day, all kinds of celebrations.

For 16 years, the center of my life has always been around the Second High School of the Bingtuan. One is because my eldest sister’s home is nearby, and the other is because my dream and even my circle of friends are given to me by "Bing II"—— Just like all my honors are given to me by the Xinjiang Men's Basketball Team.

　　In Urumqi for 16 years, in Xinjiang men's basketball for 11 years.

I think I have a clear conscience. This is not to say how good I feel, but that I have dedicated my most youthful and best years to my hometown and show my best to the fans in my hometown. No regrets.

　　There are regrets. For me, the biggest regret is Game 6 of the 2014 Finals.

If it weren’t for West Heat’s injury in the first quarter, a broken wrist during a dunk in the Singleton game of the finals, and a rupture of Yu Changdong’s Achilles tendon in the regular season, the season was lost, even if it’s not Morris’s 8-for-8 high in the last quarter. The hit rate, I should even have two championship rings in my hand!

Over the past six years, the data "8 in 8" has repeatedly appeared in my mind, almost blending with my memory.

The Xinjiang men's basketball team may become stronger in the future, but as a person, I never have a chance to win a championship for my hometown.

Being reluctant to live in my hometown is actually reluctant to bear my relatives in my hometown. My sisters are all married, and what I care most about is my mother who is alone.

Human growth may mean saying goodbye to your loved ones again and again, and farewell to your past self.

　　If that season in Shanxi was a wonderful short trip, then I hope that Shanghai will be the last stop of my career.

Now that I'm out this time, I don't want to change teams back and forth anymore. Many of my career plans and life directions in the future should be tilted towards Shanghai. I really hope to establish my own family here and find my life destination.

In such an international metropolis, playing for a team with young ambitions for the future must have both difficulties and opportunities. It is also good for me. I have more opportunities to realize myself.

Now I feel like I came to Urumqi in 2004. I am full of excitement. I hope to help the team do everything I can.

Now think about it, how did I, a kid playing glass marbles under the grape rack, come to Shanghai?

All changes are fast, too fast, and slow, too slow.

　　However, no matter how far away from home, Xinjiang is my nostalgic homeland.

In my heart, the Grand Bazaar is as gorgeous as Lujiazui.

It's just that the big plate chicken that hasn't changed in more than ten years at the back door of "Bing Er", I don't know when I can taste it again.

Fans in Xinjiang, I know this is an unacceptable result for everyone. I have struggled with this decision for a long time, and it was not because of the lure of a high-paying contract that I chose to leave.

I hope you can understand how important my hometown and you are in my heart.

You have made "Hongshan home where we are" a reality.

No matter which away game it is, your shouts are always not inferior to other home team fans, which is really moving.

You have always been the driving force for me to move forward. Thank you so much. See you in the future~

　　Finally, Let's go Shanghai!

Let's go Sharks!

In the new season, let us fight for this city together, I can't wait to meet you!

Zhou Qi sent blessings to his old teammates.

　　After Kolambek announced his departure, his old teammate Zhou Qi also sent his blessings to his personal social media. He wrote: I hope Lango will take care of himself in Shanghai. No matter where he is, the blessing will remain the same, and you will definitely come. The better.

Don't say goodbye, remember to come back often.
