Hu Jinqiu fell to the ground and fought with his opponent
"Hu Jinqiu is very similar to Yi Jianlian two years ago." This is the feeling of the fans after watching the three-person basketball of the man.
Four days and four games. When Hu Jinqiu sat under the basket after the game, gasped, and the comfort of his teammates "I don't blame you" came from beside him.
4 games Hu Jinqiu scored 41 points, accounting for 70% of the team. However, the record of the Chinese three-man men's basketball team is that it is all four games, and it is the only team among the eight participating teams that have not won...
From entering the Olympics with grassroots players to professional players taking over to the Olympics, the three-man men's basketball team has caused a lot of controversy. Now standing in the Olympic stadium, I discovered the gap between Chinese basketball and the world's top teams. The gap in
is not only physical, technology and tactics, but also team building ideas and understanding of basketball. We haven't figured out the stage of three-person basketball. Yao Ming, who watched the game sideways with
.
's debut, everything was unfamiliar
's first game. When Yang Shuyu rushes into the arena, she turns back to the player channel halfway through. It turned out that Yang Shuyu rushed into the arena before she could call out her name on the spot.
This is the microcosm of Chinese three-person basketball. As a sports event that entered the Olympics for the first time, it seems that there is not much experience in both the events themselves and the accumulation of Chinese three-person basketball.
Although the Chinese three-man basketball men's and women's basketball teams both won the championship in the 2018 Jakarta Asian Games, and the women's basketball team also won the World Cup championship in the Netherlands two years ago, everyone is unfamiliar with it on the highest Olympic stage.
In fact, compared with five-man basketball, three-man basketball is still in the "Warring States Period" and no national team has enough dominance: five teams in the three-man women's basketball game have won the World Cup championship, the most recent one is China; in the three-man men's basketball game, the Chinese men's basketball team can actually defeat the US team with its points advantage, making the latter miss Tokyo in the basketball event.
And for fans, three-person basketball is also unfamiliar.
play time for 10 minutes, except for dead balls and serves, the game will not stop; both sides will score 21 points first to win; both score 1 point in the 3-point line shooting and free throw shooting, and 2 points in the 3-point line shooting; the offensive time of one team does not exceed 12 seconds, and you cannot touch the ball after scoring; three-person basketball uses No. 6 ball, which is smaller than five-person basketball, so as to adapt to faster game speed...
is also a basketball, and the differences in details create a completely different Olympic event. Just 20 days ago, Yao Ming said to a reporter from The Paper: "In the 14th Five-Year Plan, the Chinese Basketball Association has conducted in-depth research on three-person basketball as a separate topic."
Obviously, three-person basketball has completed its debut at the Tokyo Olympics, but there is still a lot of content that needs to be carefully studied.
Hu Jinqiu and Gao Shiyan are both CBA All-Star players.
points selection, human sea tactics
The unfamiliar environment means there is no experience to follow, so when Chinese basketball chose CBA players to compete in the Olympic arena, it caused quite a stir.
Gao Shiyan replaced Zheng Yi, the meritorious captain of China's three-person basketball and is known as the "first person in China's three-person basketball", who led the team to play the entire Olympic qualifiers.
This is related to the rules of three-person basketball. First of all, there is the Olympic selection mechanism. As of November 1, 2019, the top three countries in the association’s points can directly qualify.
three-person basketball event, the country's world ranking is not the strength of a single team, but the sum of the scores of the top 100 players in the corresponding individual standings in the country. This means that as long as there are more people in the top 100 people in a country, even if the individual ranking is not high, it can quickly improve the world ranking. We are very good at various competitions related to
and mathematics.
Hu Jinqiu was double-teamed by two people.
Among them, Zheng Yi is the best among these players. According to the official website statistics of FIBA, Zheng Yi participated in a total of 58 domestic and international three-on-three competitions in four years, and was the player with the most competitions among everyone. He also made outstanding contributions to Chinese basketball in points.
So, Chinese basketball was selected into the Olympics through the top three points of the association. In August 2017, the FIBA ranking of the men's three-man basketball event was only 35, while women ranked 18th. A year later, the men's basketball team rose to fourth place, while the women's basketball team ranked first in the world.
But the number of participants is large, which does not mean that the level of a single team is high. There is a huge gap between the profession and amateur level of women's basketball, so it has become a consensus among most countries for professional players to participate in 3×3 games; but in the men's basketball competitions with wider popularity, the contradiction between grassroots and professionals has become increasingly prominent.
At the 2018 Three-man Basketball World Cup, a grassroots Chinese team composed of Zheng Yi, Li Haonan, Liu Hengyi and Huang Wenwei faced France, Slovenia, Qatar and Lithuania in the same group, and the group was eliminated in all 20 teams, ranking 19th.
The Chinese Basketball Association, which had previously encouraged grassroots competitions, realized that the three-person basketball that entered the Olympics from the streets was still a basketball game. The word "talent" is a threshold that cannot be overcome.
Gao Shiyan's performance was pissed off by netizens.
The candidate selection storm under the "replacement exam" of professional
At the Tokyo Olympics, in order to promote the professional development of three-person basketball, it is stipulated that among the four main players participating in the competition, only two players are required to enter the top ten in the local standings.
This means that for the other two places in Chinese basketball, any player can be sent, including CBA players. Therefore, the Chinese three-man basketball has shown the phenomenon of "professional substitute" as fans call it.
CBA All-Star Insider Young has practiced three-person basketball and returned to the three-person basketball arena. His strength stands out - several warm-up matches, he became the team's scoring champion with a shooting rate of more than 70%. Hu Jinqiu's improvement in the strength of the Chinese three-person basketball team can be seen with a naked eye.
, but another CBA player, Gao Shiyan, performed very hard. Also a CBA All-Star player, he seemed immature when he stepped onto the three-man basketball court - in the three warm-up matches before the Olympics, Gao Shiyan made 0 of 9 shots and failed to score a single point, which also made public opinion begin to question the choice of the Chinese Basketball Association.
The physical gap between the Chinese team and the European strong team is obvious.
Even the incident even fermented to the head coach of the three-man men's basketball team, Liu Zhen, specially recorded a video, indicating that the team made personnel selections "based on the comprehensive data accumulated by athletes in training, competitions, and daily performance." In the
video, Liu Zhen listed the athletes' assessment indicators one by one, and even specifically emphasized that Zheng Yi's points are not the first in China, but the third in China.
It can be seen from this that after Chinese basketball missed the Tokyo Olympics, as the only men's team of the three major balls, the three-man men's basketball team faced a harsh public opinion environment.
html When he went to the Tokyo Olympics on July 19, Gao Shiyan expressed his thoughts on Weibo: "The dreamy two months have come from five-man basketball to three-man basketball! From the size of the ball to the rules and methods, they are completely unfamiliar to me."As the center of the public opinion storm, Gao Shiyan's text is full of exclamation marks: "During this period, three-man basketball has endured a lot of misunderstandings! The leaders, coaches, players and staff of this team are all people who want to contribute to the team and the country! I hope everyone will have more support and encouragement to this team!"
Yan Peng tried to block the opponent.
has a big gap in strength, 5 minutes is the key
Although Chinese three-man basketball won the Asian Games gold medal, the world ranking is also at the forefront. But there are very few opportunities for the Chinese team to play against the three-man basketball pioneer - European team.
has not fought with a real master, you will never know how big the gap is.
For the Chinese three-man men's basketball team, after two days of competition, the confidence has been exhausted. He lost to Serbia 13-22 in the first game and lost to the Russian team 13-21 in the second game; he made a slight improvement on the second day, first losing to Latvia 17-18, and then losing to the Netherlands 18-21...
html lost 21 points in 14 games, and three games triggered the "explosion mechanism", which made the Chinese three-man men's basketball team stand at the forefront again.lost to Serbia in the first game, basketball commentator Yang Yi sighed: "The first impression is that the strength is too different. The core strength, lower limb strength, upper limb strength, finger strength, all-round gap."
" As long as you fight against 50% vs. 50% of the ball, it must be the opponent; as long as two people have four hands on the ball, it must be the opponent's. "
confrontation is the main tone of three-person basketball. A relevant person once described the game like this, "The two sides played in a state of quick play, which is a three-person basketball. "
In the state of "fighting and bringing a ball", the Chinese three-man men's basketball team is not adapted to the intensity of top-level games.
The future of three-man basketball requires Yao Ming to think carefully.
In fact, the men's basketball team's first day's game was not as unbearable as the scores - in the second game against Russia, the Chinese men's basketball team tied the score twice in a row, with 3 minutes and 22 seconds left in the game, Gao Shiyan once used a breakthrough to win the game. The score reached 12-12. But in the next two minutes, the opponent hit 2 points in succession, hitting a 9-1 offensive climax, ending the game.
In fact, this is exactly the characteristic of three-man basketball.
"It takes about two hours to finish a CBA game, and three-man basketball is only about half an hour at the slowest, but the physical requirements are very high, and all the energy needs to be burst out in just 10 to 20 minutes. "Hu Jinqiu once described the intensity of the game like this. In the
game, it can be found that 5 minutes became an important node - physical overdraft will make the team's strength gap more and more obvious.
women's basketball team first played against Romania. In the midfield, the Chinese women's basketball team led 10-9 slightly, but in the next 2 minutes, the opponent scored a 7-1 offensive climax to widen the score. The situation of
men's basketball team is quite similar. Against the world's number one Serbia, the two sides were in a stalemate for the first 5 minutes, but in the next 4 minutes, Serbia scored consecutive points, and finally ended with 21 points with the remaining 46 seconds. The teams may still be stalemate between the teams in the first 5 minutes of the game, but in the second half of the stage, there will often be a one-sided situation.
The Chinese team's thinking is too traditional.
loses because of the wrong idea.
Men's Basketball Team's record is not good, and netizens' anger comes to their faces.
"The grassroots' efforts over the years have been so thrilled, speechless", "Gao Shiyan was forced into it, it is really inappropriate", "You see, Yao Ming's face wrinkled in the scene"...
The four consecutive losses at the beginning of the game remind people of the original selection storm.
4 Chinese three-man men's basketball team, Hu Jinqiu 210 cm, Yan Peng 198 cm, Li Haonan 197 cm, Gao Shiyan 185 cm - This also caused the defensive end. Gao Shiyan, who was 185 cm, was repeatedly beaten by the opponent's back in the game.
has a clear position with the Compared with Chinese three-person basketball, the lineup structure of European teams is mostly a forward figure.
Serbian height is 191, 194, 199 and 200 cm respectively; the Russian team height is 191, 192, 193 and 204 cm respectively; Latvia height is 190, 195, 196 and 200 cm respectively...
In fact, among the 8 participating teams, only the Chinese three-person men's basketball team and the Japanese three-person men's basketball team have players below 190 cm height, and the 8 participating teams are only Hu Jinqiu, who is above 210 cm tall.
The team formation idea of the Chinese men's basketball team is still the traditional five-a-person basketball, and Hu Jinqiu's role is irreplaceable. The thinking of
is from the head coach. In the initial response to the selection criteria, you can see that - at that time, coach Liu Zhen said that the team was "combined with the configuration and technical and tactical requirements of inside players, space swing players, and ball-holders", and the result of collective discussion.
The result is that the Chinese team relies too much on Hu Jinqiu's inside advantage, and he has become the team's only main attack point - in 4 games, Hu Jinqiu scored a total of 41 points, and the remaining 3 people only scored 20 points in total.
And in the three-pointer with higher scoring weight, the performance of Chinese three-man basketball is hard to describe - in four games, the Chinese team shot a total of 40 times, hitting only 7 of them, with a shooting percentage of only 17.5%, with the lowest of 8 teams.
Netizens described this lineup: "Gao Shiyan did not have three-pointers, Yan Peng did not make any breakthrough, and Hu Jinqiu did not dribble. "The functional ideas of guards, forwards and insiders have actually made many flaws in China's three-person basketball.
It is obvious that as a new professional sport, the Chinese men's three-person basketball team still needs to learn on the unfamiliar stage of the Olympics.
