3 The achievements of Chinese women's basketball in the 2022 Women's Basketball World Cup should not just be laughed and laughed. For Women's Basketball , after the carnival, you should calm down and continue to find problems, make up for the shortcomings, make up for yourself, and be fully prepared for the Paris Olympics two years later.
This point Zheng Wei coached the game the next day after the competition, he told reporters " Although the Chinese women's basketball team has achieved a historic breakthrough and drew past records, this is a gratifying result, but from the current perspective, I think our strength does not have the strength of a world-class team. So we should have a long way to go in the future. Through summary, find out the problems, let ourselves continue to improve, and become a real world-class team. . ”
As we all know, the Chinese women's basketball team is the world runner-up in a team's battle. No team's top scorer can still reach the finals. There is no heroic scene of multiple individuals playing at the whistle. Some are passes and cuts , counterattack, pick-and-roll and dazzling fast passes. Rather than saying that the Chinese women's basketball team's fearless success, it is better that Zheng Wei's basketball wisdom and experience helped the Chinese women's basketball team stand on the podium.
So, there is no doubt that the Chinese women's basketball team's basketball team is not without core, and this core must be Zheng Wei. "Three-point division is a plan, and the eternal sky is a feather." With this core, I believe that the silver medal in the World Cup of the Chinese Women's Basketball Team will definitely not be the end!
The success of the women's basketball team should also cause reflection on men's basketball team ? I have seen many men's basketball players including Xu Jie , Guo Ailun , Wang Zhelin , Zhou Qi and many other men's basketball players expressed their tribute to the women's basketball team, but I hope to see them turn the success of the women's basketball team in the World Cup into their motivation for future training and even competitions. Instead of excusing one's own failure, or even giving up struggling, and hoping for naturalization - this "dividend" that Chinese basketball has been reluctant to reach out but is not suitable for China's actual situation (in fact, the naturalization special case of FIBA was originally formulated for multicultural European and American teams for profit).
In the past two days, I haven't seen any active actions of the men's basketball team (of course, they may be busy preparing for CBA). Instead, I saw many fans in the position of the men's basketball team's free throw shooting rate excuses, saying that the women's basketball team's ball is small, so the free throw is good, the men's basketball team's ball is larger, but the size of the box is the same as that of the women's basketball team, so the men's basketball team is definitely worse than the women's basketball team's free throw shooting rate!
But Chinese men's basketball team is also very bad compared with teams from other countries. In the 2019 World Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team's free throw shooting percentage was only 64.8%, which is the last place among all 32 participating teams, and even worse than the Korean men's basketball team.
This year's two major competitions, the World Cup qualifiers and Asian Cup . In fact, the opponents are both Asian countries, and the intensity of the game is far from comparable to the European and American opponents in the World Cup. As a result, in the Asian Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team's free throw shooting rate was not much better. 68.4% of the Asian Cup ranked 8th among the 12 participating teams, 81% of Japan ranked second, and 80% of South Korea ranked third. In the 8 World Cup qualifiers (only Australia can be called a strong team), the shooting percentage is still only 68.3%, ranking 10th in all 15 teams, which is still worse than Japan.
Where is the women's basketball team? In this World Cup, it seems that only 76% is not very high, and of course it is not very low. But in many key games, the Chinese women's basketball team's free throw shooting rate is very high. As we all know, the Chinese women's basketball team completed the final victory against Australia through Wang Siyu's two free throws in . Just imagine what would happen if Wang Siyu scored one of two free throws? The Chinese women's basketball team will be in a difficult position in the next defensive round - should they defend against two points or three points?
In addition, in two matches with the US women's basketball team, the Chinese women's basketball team handed in a 100% free throw shooting percentage in the group stage. In the final, they faced the US women's basketball team as strong as a man, and the women's basketball team's free throw shooting percentage was 80%!
The Chinese men's basketball team not only has poor free throw shooting percentage, but also cannot stand up at critical moments.Many people remember the two terrible sideline free throws in regular time when facing , Poland, in the 2019 World Cup, but in fact, before that, the Chinese men's basketball team missed many free throws, causing Poland to approach the score step by step.
In the last two minutes, Poland made a technical foul, and his elder brother Yi Jianlian made a free throw, and then hit another 3 points, and the score difference widened to 5 points. AJ Slaut then hit a response of 3 points, the Chinese men's basketball team led by 2 points, and in the last 13 seconds, Poland took the initiative to foul, Zhou Qi executed the free throw, and as a result, one of two free throws, the Chinese men's basketball team led by 3 points.
12 seconds, the Chinese men's basketball team took the initiative to foul the ball. Bonika, who shined in the 2022 European Championship, made both free throws, and the score difference was close to two points. Then the two teams scored two free throws each ( Zhao Jiwei made both free throws), but as we all know, in the last 4 seconds, Zhou Qi made another mistake, Bonika completed the steal, and scored one of two free throws, and the Chinese men's basketball team missed the attack in the last 4 seconds and both sides entered overtime.
Overtime, the Chinese men's basketball team scored 4 free throws in total, but only hit 1 time, and the score was finally fixed at 76 to 79!
To sum up, it is the last quarter of regular time. If the Chinese men's basketball team scores one more free throw, Poland will not drag the game into overtime. If the Chinese men's basketball team grasps these free throws in overtime, the Chinese men's basketball team may win in overtime! But there is no if, if it will only make people regret it.
The Chinese men's basketball team's free throw shooting percentage was only 63.6% in the whole game, and they lost 12 free throws. To be honest, the referee has already given face, but the Chinese men's basketball team cannot grasp the 12 free throws. If we can grasp more of the lost 12 free throws, we don't need to worry about the Olympic tickets at all.
Men's basketball team lost their free throws, while women's basketball team entered the finals, which is the difference.
In fact, the Chinese women's basketball team has many classic finals, not only in this year's Women's Basketball World Cup. From a distance, in 1994, the Chinese women's basketball team also defeated Australia with free throws, and finally advanced to the World Cup finals for the first time in history. In recent years, in addition to this, at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, the women's basketball team also defeated Australia in the group stage. At that time, the one who executed the free throw was Li Yueru .
The basic skills of this Chinese men's basketball team need to be improved. Shooting is the basic skills, and physical fitness is also the basic skills. Even physical fitness determines the performance of all technical movements on the court. These two points are the problems that the Chinese men's basketball team should solve before next year's World Cup. Don't find various reasons for the sake of face, including fans. Bad is bad, and try to correct those with problems.
There is no need to shout all day long whether to learn Europe or the beauty. I think it’s enough to learn the women’s basketball team. Learn their basic skills, their fighting spirit, their unity, their guards, and their tactical system - there are towers but not relying on towers!
Not only should players communicate with each other, but isn’t that the same between coaches?
