The results of the 2022 FIBA Asian Cup draw have been released, and the four groups are as follows: Group A Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Australia, Indonesia. Group B Chinese Taipei, China, South Korea, Bahrain. Group C Iran, Japan, Kazakhstan, Syria. D: India, Lebanon, Philippines, New Zealand. The Asian Cup will be held on July 12-24 in Jakarta, Indonesia.
From the Asian level, the goal of the Chinese men's basketball team as the top team in Asia should be to run for the championship, and it is divided into Group B with The Chinese Taipei, The Korean Team and the Bahrain Team. It can be seen from the grouping that there should be no suspense about the Chinese team qualifying for the top eight, and the suspense is in what capacity to enter the top eight, whether it is the first in the group to directly advance or pass the knockout round. Of course, from the group stage, if you can't directly advance to the first place in the group, it will undoubtedly be a very failure for the Chinese men's basketball team.
In terms of the quality of the group opponents, this is a very ideal grouping. In this group, Bahrain is definitely the weakest opponent, and looking at the top sixteen, Bahrain should also be one of the bottom teams. The Chinese team should not use the main lineup against them, and the national team of the Chinese Taipei team Du Feng has already played with them with a set of training lineups, and both times are big victories against the opponent, there is no suspense. The strongest opponent is definitely the South Korean team, although the current South Korean team also has naturalized players to join, but it feels like the Chinese men's football team will not play a big role, should not change the overall decline of the South Korean team fate.
The second suspense is whether the Chinese men's basketball team can win the championship, according to the rules of the Asian Cup, each group first directly into the quarterfinals, once the Chinese team to the first group to enter the quarterfinals, then the Chinese men's basketball team quarterfinals opponent will be the second group d and the third group C winner, from the strength analysis of the probability is the Philippines or Lebanon between one, everyone knows that the Philippines team is a naturalized army led by Caraxon. (Of course, Clarkson's play or not is still suspense).) Even if he plays, the Chinese men's basketball team should not have much problem in reaching the semifinals under normal circumstances. In fact, as far as the current Asia-Pacific basketball pattern is concerned, the Chinese men's basketball team's victory over the Philippines or Lebanon should be reasonable.
Once in the semifinals, because the Chinese men's basketball team and the Australian men's basketball team are divided into a semi-region, the semi-finals will most likely encounter Australia, of course, if there is a small probability that the Women's Football Team will block Australia from the top four in the Asian Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team will have a much broader way forward. Of course, we still have to be 100% ready to play Australia in the semi-finals, even if Australia sends two teams to participate, it is estimated that Du Feng's national team will usher in a severe test, the probability of winning will not be very large, from Du Feng's post after the draw, it can be seen that Australia is obviously his most valued and jealous opponent, of course, as far as the current Chinese sports public opinion environment is concerned. In fact, I am not afraid of losing the game, I am afraid of losing the game in a nest, such as the Chinese men's football team losing to the Vietnamese team, basically breaking their own rice bowl. As long as the Chinese men's basketball team faces Australia, as long as it plays its own state and level, winning is a windfall, and losing is reasonable. If you can cross the barrier of Australia, it is estimated that the championship really does not have much suspense. However, realistically speaking, facing the Australian Chinese team, we should still think about how to compete for the third place is the most realistic.
The third suspense is what attitude Du Feng will take to compete in the Asian Cup, for the Chinese men's basketball team, the Asian Cup in July should only be the first task of this year, the second task is the Asian Games in September, if there is a problem in the strength of the Asian Cup to win, striving for the best result is a general goal, then at the asian Games at the doorstep, there is no strong opponent like Australia, Emotional intelligence, IQ and consciousness are on the line Du Feng is estimated to take the Asian Games champion as an important goal for himself. There can be no more heart-blocking scenes on the World Cup on the doorstep, which should be a common requirement and should be a bottom line. Of course, the Asian Cup Chinese team also has an international event points task. Du Feng has also always paid more attention. Therefore, from the perspective of the desire coefficient of the two champions, the Asian Cup focuses on the impact, while the Asian Games should focus on the struggle.
After the results of the draw came out, the national team coach Du Feng also surfaced his attitude at the first time: the task is clear, firmly moving forward, all the way to the journey! The results of the Asian Cup draw were announced, and the Chinese men's basketball team is about to usher in another test and experience. After australia and new Zealand joined, Asian basketball entered a new rhythm of development, and the intensity was unprecedented. For us, we must strive to make progress with a fuller attitude and belief, and face the challenge without fear and fearlessness. Let's cheer together! To be honest, Du Feng, as the coach of the national team, does not say whether the results are good or bad, at least in other aspects, it should be enough for former national football coach Li Tie to study for a lifetime.
