The historic defeat of the Chinese men's basketball team: the strong team is no longer in the limelight
Opening. 
For the first time in 88 years, the Chinese men's basketball team suffered an unexpected defeat to the Japanese men's basketball team in the Asian Cup qualifiers, losing 73-76, which is not only the first defeat in 2024, but also the first time in nearly 88 years that the Chinese men's basketball team has lost to the Japanese men's basketball team in an international competition. This humiliating battle made fans feel heartbroken, and the strong strength of the Chinese men's basketball team seemed to be overshadowed at this moment.
The start was amazing, but it was eclipsed in an instant.
At the beginning of the game, the Chinese men's basketball team took a stunning lead with a score of 14-3, giving the opponent a dismount. However, this good momentum did not continue, and the Chinese team performed very badly in the next game, both offensively and defensively. The Japanese men's basketball team took the opportunity to tie and overtake the score, showing excellent counterattack ability. At the critical moment, Hu Mingxuan's consecutive scores allowed the Chinese men's basketball team to stabilize the scene a little, but failed to reverse the defeat.
In the second half, Japan counterattacked to take the lead.
After entering the second half of the game, the Chinese men's basketball team did not score a point for four minutes, allowing the Japanese men's basketball team to take the opportunity to establish a 7-8 lead. Although the Chinese team tried their best to chase the points in the later stage, the continuous mistakes in the final moments of the game directly led to the loss of this game, which is very regrettable.
The fans were furious, and Djordjevic replied.
After the loss, fans expressed dissatisfaction, especially considering that the Chinese men's basketball team defeated Japan by 33 points away from home last year, and this defeat is even more confusing. After the game, the reporter bluntly asked the responsible coach Djordjevic if this loss was his last game in charge of the Chinese men's basketball team. Djordjevic was very firm in the face of this issue, accusing the journalist of disrespectful and expressing his position that he is still firmly in the position of head coach.
The gap between the confidence of the famous coach and the results Djordjevic should leave class.
Although Djordjevic is a world-class coach who led the team to a runner-up finish at the Olympics, his performance in coaching the Chinese men's basketball team has been nothing short of spectacular. In the World Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team lost 80 points in three group games, lost to the second team of the Philippines in the Asian Games, and now lost to the Japanese team, which has not lost in 88 years. This makes people have to question whether Djordjevic is suitable to lead the Chinese men's basketball team. His tall and noble tactical system does not seem to fit well with the Chinese team, so the author believes that Djordjevic's dismissal is the best choice for the Chinese men's basketball team.
Epilogue. In this historic defeat, the Chinese men's basketball team not only lost a game, but also lost the trust of fans. The team needs to undergo deep reflection and adjustment, and whether or not to continue to be coached by Djordjevic is also an urgent question to be solved. This defeat is a microcosm of the Chinese men's basketball team's glory, and it is also a profound touch on the entire basketball system. I hope that the Chinese men's basketball team can find the motivation for rebirth in this setback and return to the top.
