The Chinese women's basketball team has finally returned to the World Championship final. What transformation has the Chinese women's basketball team experienced in the past six years?
rises from the trough and hones in difficulties. Since Xu Limin became the head coach in March 2017, the Chinese women's basketball team has made returning to the podium of the World Championships a long-term goal and has formulated plans including two Olympic cycles. In order to motivate the players, the Chinese women's basketball team under Xu Liming hung photos of the Japanese team's championship celebration on the wall of the training hall at the beginning of its establishment, and organized the players to participate in military training and other theme expansion activities, giving priority to team cohesion and style construction.
After Xu Liming took office, he vigorously appointed young players. The first competition he led the team to participate in was the Asian Cup after the name change (Asian Championship).The semi-finals met the Japanese team again, and the Chinese women's basketball team was reversed when they were once led by 9 points in the final quarter.
's failure in the world and intercontinental competitions has become a valuable asset in the growth of this Chinese women's basketball team. In Jakarta in 2018, the Chinese women's basketball team regained the Asian Games gold medal after 8 years. Less than a month later, the Chinese women's basketball team defeated the Japanese team, which was playing as the main player in the World Cup, and finally broke the inner demon of "not defeating the Japanese team" in those years. During these years, stars of hope such as Li Yueru, , Han Xu, Li Yuan have the opportunity to exercise on the competition stage, laying a solid foundation for the formation and consolidation of the main framework of the Chinese team in the future.
"Dare to fight and fight when encountering strong teams, and do not relax when encountering weak teams." The words of the former captain of the Chinese women's basketball team Shao Ting are exactly the spirit of the women's basketball players on the court. In February 2020, the Chinese women's basketball team defeated the third-ranked Spanish team at the time in the Tokyo Olympic Women's Basketball Qualification Championship and obtained Olympic qualification one round ahead of schedule.
"We must play the spirit of the Chinese women's basketball team, dare to fight tough battles, and be stronger when they meet strong." At that time, this "super burning" pre-match mobilization in the locker room moved the Chinese people.
narrowly defeated Australia in the group stage of the Tokyo Olympics and defeated France in the World Cup qualifiers by 33 points... The Chinese women's basketball team defeated strong enemies with their fighting spirit, and the whole team was down-to-earth and their self-confidence was getting stronger and stronger.
In order to prepare for this World Cup, the Chinese women's basketball team set off in August to go to Europe for overseas training. Although the training conditions and living environment are not as good as those in China, before the competition, the competition is used instead of training, and the competition is played with teams of different styles is allowed to adjust the competitive state to the time-to-match mode in time before the World Cup starts.
In recent years, the Chinese women's basketball team has been constantly competing with high-level teams, and the Chinese women's basketball team has been constantly learning and polishing its own skills and tactics in the competition. Shao Ting believes that if you have more experience in the game and become familiar with your opponent's routines and playing styles, your abilities will naturally improve.
The current head coach of the Chinese women's basketball team Zheng Wei . He has served as an assistant coach of the national team for more than ten years and assisted three head coaches. He has had in-depth and meticulous observations on the technical characteristics of the team itself and its main opponents.
Do things in a low-key manner and move forward steadily. Faced with the high expectations of the outside world for the Chinese women's basketball team, Zheng Wei has always maintained a calm mind. "(In recent years) this Chinese women's basketball team has not yet entered the top four in a World Championship, so we must first put our position right."
's stable lineup is the key to the growth and progress of the Chinese women's basketball team. Although the team's training roster has been slightly adjusted at different times, since the 2018 World Cup, a team framework with Yang Liwei, Li Yuan, Wang Siyu, Li Meng, Huang Sijing , Li Yueru and Han Xu as the team has been formed, and their cooperation with each other has become increasingly mature. In the World Cup group stage, the 10 regular rotation players of the Chinese team averaged more than 5 points per game, and 7 of them averaged more than 7 points per game. Facing the Puerto Rico, the Chinese team sent 41 assists in the whole game, giving the team basketball to the extreme.
The quarter-final encounters the bronze medalist of the Tokyo Olympics France team, and the Chinese team dares to fight against their opponents head-on. Li Yuan, the shortest on the court, hit the basket again and again. Huang Sijing calmly hit the free throw after suffering a body violation foul. Han Xu successfully "scored three-pointer" when the lead was reduced to 1 point. In the last moment, Huang Sijing's three-pointer that almost secured the victory. The Chinese team finally advanced to the semi-finals of the World Championship again and now further advanced to the finals.
More importantly, the current age structure of the Chinese women's basketball team is reasonable. In this World Cup, the oldest among the regular rotation players is 28-year-old Wu Tongtong . In the next few years, this group of players still have great hopes to maintain their competitiveness worldwide.
