Title: The Chinese men's basketball team suffered a fiasco!3 people are radiant, and 2 major shortcomings are worrying
Introduction:The Chinese men's basketball team lost 73-76 to Japan in the 2024 Asian Cup qualifiers, leaving fans pondering. After the game, Yao Ming expressed his dissatisfaction with the team's performance, mentioning the problem of the back line, what happened on the pitch this night?
At the beginning of the opening game, the Chinese men's basketball team showed a strong combination of internal and external, and Hu Jinqiu's performance brought highlights to the team. However, as the game deepened, the Japanese men's basketball team gradually found a way to crack it and launched a counterattack. The two teams played to a 38-38 draw in the first half, and it was a stalemate.
On the road to victory, Hu Jinqiu and Hu Mingxuan played steadily, contributing 23 points and 13 rebounds and 20 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists respectively. However, two major shortcomings were also revealed on the court, Zhao Jiwei and Du Runwang's performance was worrying, Zhao Jiwei only got 4 points and 4 assists in 2 of 7, while Du Runwang projected mediocre performance in 22 minutes, and only got 1 rebound as a power forward.
Looking back on the whole game, my personal opinion is that there are obvious problems with the guard line of the Chinese men's basketball team. Zhao Jiwei's performance was unsatisfactory, and Du Runwang's performance on the inside line was also unsatisfactory. At critical moments, the Japanese men's basketball team can always hit three-point shots in a row, while the Chinese men's basketball team is a little powerless in tactical deployment.
When comparing the performance of the two teams' guard lines, the Chinese men's basketball team looks relatively weak. The opinion is that Zhao Jiwei needs to impact the basket more, and guard players such as Xu Jie and Yang Hansen should also show richer offensive means, rather than simple interior or three-point shots. Such changes will help reduce the offensive pressure on interior and forward players and improve overall offensive efficiency.
Yao Ming mentioned in the pre-game interview that he hopes the Chinese men's basketball team can cultivate more outstanding guard players, similar to Jeremy Lin, Guo Allen, Hu Weidong, etc. These players stand out on the field with their individual ability, and Yao Ming's advice to the team has also caused fans to think deeply. The current Chinese men's basketball team has a young lineup, but it also needs more guard players with offensive ability.
Qiao Shuai led the Chinese men's basketball team to poor results in the past competitions, and the two losses to the Philippine men's basketball team became a pain in the hearts of fans. This loss to the Japanese men's basketball team, fans generally questioned Qiao Shuai's coaching ability. Although Yao Ming gave him advice, whether he can adjust the team's state in a short period of time, Qiao Shuai's fate is still a mystery.
It was late at night, and fans were caught up in the middle of the night thinking about the future of the Chinese men's basketball team. This defeat is not just a defeat of one game, but a test of the whole team. The shortcomings of the guard line need to be solved urgently, and it is worth waiting to see whether Qiao Shuai can find a solution in this "battle of life and death". It is hoped that in the future games, the Chinese men's basketball team will be able to emerge and add glory to the national basketball cause.
