Why is the men's basketball team in the semi -finals of the Asian Cup

After being defeated to Lebanon with a three -point difference, the Chinese men's basketball team missed the semi -finals in the Asian Cup. Many people can't help asking, what happened to the Chinese men's basketball team?

Severe personnel

During the Asian Cup, reporters often communicated with Wang Libin, vice chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association and former national player. Wang Libin told reporters, "In terms of personnel, the men's basketball team is very difficult this time, and it is not general."

The difficulties of Wang Libin said mainly to two aspects. First, before the men's basketball signs, many important players could not participate in injuries. Hu Jinqiu, Zhou Peng, Wu Qian, Abu Matthamu, etc. were not selected as the national team. Second, the Chinese men's basketball team participated in the world in Australia. During the preliminaries, a number of players infected with a new crown, and Guo Ailun, the core of the backcourt, stayed in Australia and did not appear on the Asian Cup list. Third, Zhang Zhenlin and Guo Haowen also made the men's basketball coach Du Feng more stretched because of participating in the NBA Summer League.

Among the players participating in the Asian Cup, a considerable part of them are still unwell. When he lost to South Korea, the core of the inside Zhou Qi could not play. The quarter -finals were eliminated by Lebanon. Zhao Rui was very limited because of the fever time, and the state was obviously very bad.

Limited strength

This year's Asian Cup Chinese team played a total of 5 games, 3 wins and 2 losses, and only showed an overwhelming strength advantage when defeating Taipei and Indonesia in China. Netizens have great dissatisfaction.

People cannot accept this result because in many people's impressions, the strength of the Chinese men's basketball team has an absolute advantage in Asia. Even if the personnel are not tidy, the disabled array can defeat any team outside Australia. In fact, the current situation of the men's basketball team is full of main players, and the advantage of the Asian strong team is extremely limited. The Korean men's basketball team is getting worse, but the 2019 World Cup Chinese men's basketball home battle is only a victory over the opponent.

The reason is that the CBA league has brought us illusion. Those super star who killed the Quartet in the CBA league really went to the Asian arena and the strong team, which was very different from the league performance. The center Wang Zhelin is known as the king in the CBA, and the Asian Cup is the level of the general inside. The playoffs have a staggering Sun Minghui one after another. In the confrontation with Lebanese, only 6 assists and 7 mistakes are handled. The Chinese men's basketball team lost the opportunity to come back.

Internal lines and outside imbalances

After being eliminated by Lebanon, Wang Libin told reporters very frankly, "This game is mainly lost in the offense, especially the external offense is very bad. Let's put up the door to fight the CBA, all are stars, go out to play high -intensity international internationally internationally In the competition, there are no stars in China below 2 meters tall. "

The Asian Cup proves that the only strong point of the Chinese men's basketball team in Asia is only Zhou Qi. Even if Guo Ailun and Zhao Jiwei returned to the team, the outside of the men's basketball team did not have an advantage in Asia. Especially when encountering West Asian teams, China ’s outer lines, especially defender players, were more disadvantaged. Because of the best lineup of the Asian Championships, Guo Ailun was nicknamed Asia's first defender by fans. However, this year's Asian Cup is also worthy of Asian first guards, Lebanese player Alaki. Alaki fought against China and scored 30 points without a mistake.

It must be acknowledged that if all elite players are used for the Chinese men's basketball team, it is indeed the top team in Asia, but if you want to become the best Asian team in the World Cup next year, to obtain the Paris Olympic Games vouchers, it is far away.
