The Chinese men's basketball team suffered a long-awaited defeat in a FIBA system, losing 73-76 to Japan, the first time in 88 years that they have lost to an opponent at or above the Asian level. At the end of the game, the men's basketball team missed the opportunity to equalize, which caused widespread doubts about head coach Qiao Shuai, and even led to the anger of the Serbian coach.
At the last moment, Zhu Junlong advanced to the front court with the ball, but found that no teammates stepped forward to answer, and in the end, he hurriedly shot a super long three-point, but he could only hit the iron. Zhu Junlong looked very angry after shooting, and expressed dissatisfaction with his teammates for not receiving the ball in time.
Regarding this attack, Qiao Shuai explained after the game: "We were hoping to pass the ball quickly to find a three-point opportunity, but the players failed to fully understand and execute the tactics. However, Qiao Shuai was angry at the question of whether this was his last game as coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, and bluntly said: "I don't want to answer, it's too disrespectful." I'm still in this position, and it's disrespectful and disrespectful for you to ask me, very disrespectful. ”
Qiao Shuai finally pointed out: "There are many details that need to be paid attention to in international competitions, and we need to be more disciplined. Some of our young players need games like this to gain experience, players like Yang Hansen, Choi Yong-hee, need to be involved in games like this. ”
This game was undoubtedly disappointing, and there were obvious problems with the cooperation and execution of the Chinese men's basketball team at critical moments, which also raised questions about Qiao Shuai's tactical arrangements and player preparation. Qiao Shuai is obviously angry and frustrated in the face of outside pressure and doubts, but as a coach, he must also take responsibility and guide young players to grow and gain experience through games like this.
For the Chinese men's basketball team, this defeat is undoubtedly a wake-up call, and it is necessary to sum up lessons and adjust the state. Young players need more practice and experience, and the coaching team needs to adjust their tactics and training in time to achieve better performances in future competitions. Although this defeat is disappointing, it also allows the team to see room and opportunities for improvement, and I believe that the Chinese men's basketball team can usher in better performance and achieve breakthroughs and progress in future games.
