Beijing time on July 17, the World Preliminary Tournament play-off continues to play, Japan lost to Iran 76-88, this campaign former NBA player Yuta Watanabe played in 3 quarters, 6 of 15 to get 17 points and 10 rebounds of the data, plus or minus the first place in the whole team, and, the follow-up fourth quarter, when he sat on the bench, Japan instead played a very smooth cooperation, once forced Iran to take out Haddadi again, a single quarter to recover 10 points, but helplessly the difference between the two sides is too large, and finally did not qualify for the victory of this game.
After the game, the topic involving Yuta Watanabe was divided into two parts on the Internet. First of all, Watanabe Yu's all-encompassing way of playing, and did not reach the positioning of supporting the absolute core of the team, almost all of his teammates are playing around Yuta Watanabe, and his state, unable to complete the end efficiently, a large number of teammates turn back to run, to some extent hurt the team's chemical reaction, especially the continuous stop, Iran a wave of counterattack, so that the Japanese men's basketball team's offensive and defensive conversion, in a miserable state.
On the other hand, there are some "Nichibuki" fans, many fans feel that the Japanese men's basketball team is already in a state of rise, with Yuta Watanabe, Yamura and other people, with the Chinese men's basketball team full main force.
The problem of the Japanese men's basketball team is not solved by a single player, but the lack of absolute height, like Yuta Watanabe, although in the NBA in the position of a small forward, but in the Positioning of the Japanese men's basketball team, belongs to the rank of no. 3-5, like his body, and Haddadi, is completely two levels of athletes. The comprehensive strength of the Japanese men's basketball team is not a quality change that Cana Watanabe can undergo.
Yang Yi, a well-known basketball commentator, commented: Watanabe has no breakthrough ability. The center of gravity is too high, the starting speed is not fast, the attack is to play leisurely, relying on his height and stride, the basket is just like that, there is no back hit. He can bully some short opponents by height, and when the opponent's height and confrontation come up, he can't take on the core role of attack.
You said that his dream-chasing spirit is commendable, you have to say the ability, I still say that sentence: not as good as Zhou Peng.
In fact, Zhou Peng's ability in China is also two completely different degrees of recognition, from the CBA head coach to many practitioners, almost unanimously believe that Zhou Peng's influence on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, to achieve a very high competitive state, and even Li Qiuping commented that "playing Guangdong is to see Zhou Peng, Yi Jianlian is very good defense", and the previous CBA head coach voted, it is the emergence of Zhou Peng to get the best defensive player, or the category of high votes.
With the increase of age, many fans feel that Zhou Peng's ability is already unable to meet the standards of the national team, especially last season, in a state of extreme fatigue, playing a complete new season, zhou Peng needs to leave the Chinese men's basketball team, so as to enter a state of recuperation and adjustment.
