Beijing time on July 3rd, in the second match between the Chinese men's basketball team and the Australian team in the World Cup qualifying Asia region, the Chinese team only scored 3 points in the fourth quarter, setting a record for the lowest score in a single quarter of the Chinese men's basketball official game. And such a record is destined to be set on the pillar of shame in the history of Chinese men's basketball.
The Chinese men's basketball team was double beaten by the Australian team within 3 days. It was difficult for the Chinese team to win in the 8 encounters between the two teams in history. In fact, there is a certain gap between the current strength of the Chinese men's basketball team and the current Australian second or even third team. After the game, we should calmly think about the reason for the loss? Is Guo Ailun 3 of 16? Hu Mingxuan 1 out of 9? Xu Jie 's 1 out of 6 shots? We saw that they worked hard enough on the field, and they were full of desire for victory. Should they bear the responsibility for losing? If we trace the origin of , it is obviously not the case. It can only be said that the level of our league is still far behind the world's high-level leagues.
In fact, from another perspective, the Chinese men’s basketball team is indeed not the strongest during this window period. The weak front line has been criticized too much by the outside world. This is partly due to the pressure of the Chinese men’s basketball team not advancing in the World Cup qualifiers. It has a lot to do with it. If it were in the main game of the Men's Basketball World Cup, the Chinese Basketball Association would definitely not dare to use such a lineup to compete. In fact, there are many outstanding players in the CBA league , such as Tao Hanlin, He Xining, Jiang Weize, etc. However, they were not called up by the national team for various reasons and lacked the opportunity to experience in international competitions. This may also be the reason for the current situation. There may be unavoidable problems in the Chinese men's basketball team.
In fact, we are looking back at the two games that the Chinese men's basketball team lost to Australia. As the head coach, Du Feng used more psychological tactics and sharp language to stimulate the players' fighting spirit to win. The players did not do a good job. Should we just blame them? However, as a head coach, he lacks the skills and tactics he should have. Without tactics, players can only fight alone on the court, which has resulted in the low shooting rate of many players. In fact, there is no denying that Du Feng's coaching ability is indeed the best among domestic coaches. It can only be said that the current coaching level in our league is not high.
Perhaps at this time we recall the words of former Chinese men's basketball head coach Jiang Xingquan: "If it's your point, shoot boldly. The meritorious service is yours. The responsibility for the missed shot is mine!" However, the current coaching staff does lack Such a responsibility and responsibility. In fact, every player knows the meaning of wearing the national team jersey. There is no player who does not cherish such an honor. Therefore, an excellent coach should understand the characteristics of each player, be able to know people well, and be able to coach the players. Only when the characteristics are fully developed can the coach's ability be truly reflected. When the Chinese men's basketball team couldn't open up the situation in the fourth quarter, it could have replaced Zhao Rui , who had previously used strong bursts to cause damage, but Zhao Rui did not play for a minute in the entire fourth quarter.
The biggest goal of the Chinese men's basketball team at the moment is undoubtedly to break through in the 2023 World Cup and successfully obtain tickets for the Paris Olympics. Last year's Tokyo Olympics made the Chinese men's basketball team miss the Olympics for the first time in 37 years. Just as Gou Zhongwen, director of the State Sports General Administration, said, "The people are not satisfied with such results." So if the Chinese men's basketball team fails this time As for the Paris Olympics cycle, Yao Ming, who is the chairman of the Basketball Association, cannot absolve himself of the blame.
Yao Ming is undoubtedly successful as a player, but after taking office as chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, his first four years were indeed a failure. The current Chinese men's basketball team is indeed in decline. There must be many fans who will say that the Chinese men's basketball team currently lacks a leader. This is also a factor, but in the 1990s, the Chinese men's basketball team also did not have an absolute leader, but at that time The Chinese men's basketball team can also reach the top eight in the Olympics.
The current Chinese basketball team should return to its essence, with less erosion of interests, less nepotism, and more fairness and justice. Only in this way can Chinese basketball have a bright future!
