Chinese men's basketball team: facing the challenge of the Asian Cup qualifiers.
On the basketball court, every training camp is a process of precipitation and growth, especially for the national team, this is an opportunity to temper strength and unite the team. This morning, the Chinese men's national basketball team ended its ten-day training camp in Qingdao and embarked on a journey to Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, to make final preparations for the upcoming Asian Cup qualifiers. With the end of the training camp, the Chinese Basketball Association also announced the 14-man squad for the Chinese men's basketball team during the Asian preliminary window, which shows Djordjevic's tendency towards a younger lineup.
The rise of young power
The Chinese men's basketball team has been exploring a younger lineup in recent years, and the average age of the 14-man squad is less than 24 years old, which is undoubtedly an active exploration of the future of Chinese basketball. Djordjevic's approach to employing people is appropriate, striving to give more opportunities to young players, and rookies such as Yang Hansen, Wang Ruize and Liao Sanning can stand out in this squad, which also shows the effectiveness of Chinese basketball in cultivating young players.
A starting lineup that combines old and new
In a warm-up game last night, Djordjevic tried out a new starting line-up, which also bodes well for his continued tactical tweaking and experimentation. The starting lineup consisting of Hu Jinqiu, Zhu Junlong, Du Runwang, Zhao Jiwei and Choi Yongxi showed a clever combination of new and old players. Such a starting lineup will undoubtedly bring more changes and surprises to the Chinese men's basketball team when facing the Mongolian men's basketball team.
Challenges and pressures on the back line
However, despite the emergence of young forces, the pressure on the Chinese men's basketball team on the guard line cannot be ignored. In this 14-man squad, only Zhao Jiwei is the only defender who can control the rhythm on the field, and the other players are more functional players. This means that Zhao Jiwei will take on more responsibility in the game, especially against a strong opponent like the Japanese men's basketball team, and his performance will directly affect the team's record.
Looking to the future
With the Asian Cup qualifiers approaching, the Chinese men's basketball team has ushered in new challenges and opportunities. Djordjevic's attempt at rejuvenation has brought new energy to the team, but at the same time, it needs more sharpening and growth. In this process, each player will take responsibility, and the cohesion and tactical execution of the team will determine their success or failure.
As a supporter of Chinese basketball, we look forward to this young national team showing its strength and style on the court and contributing to the future of Chinese basketball. No matter what difficulties and challenges they face, they will move forward with faith and determination towards victory!
