On January 19, now that the second stage of the CBA regular season has ended, players will have a period of vacation. With the suspension of the league, the Chinese men's basketball window training is about to begin, and not long ago we saw the Chinese men's basketball team officially announce the squad. Previously, the coach of the Chinese men's basketball team was Du Feng, and now it has become the foreign coach Jordjevic, plus the selection of training players, so this list is hotly discussed. The main thing is which players are not selected and which players are not qualified.
Let's first look at the composition of the training squad, the players include, Zhou Qi, Cui Xiaolong, Zhu Mingzhen, Jiao Boqiao, Cui Yongxi, Hu Jinqiu, Zhu Junlong, Zhu Xuhang, Zhou Peng, Wang Zhelin, Zeng Fanbo, Zhao Rui, Hu Mingxuan, Guo Allen, Zhao Jiwei, Zhang Zhenlin, Wu Qian, Cheng Shuaipeng, a total of 18 people.
Among them, the teams with the most selected players are Liaoning and Guangzhou, both of whom were selected with three players, and Guangdong and Zhejiang each have two each. So where is the controversy, look back at the comments on the Internet, Xu Jie of the Guangdong team, Jiang Weize of the Jilin team.
Let's start with Xu Jie, he has been selected for the Chinese men's basketball training many times before, and he has also entered the 12-man squad. The CBA has played 24 minutes per game so far this season, scoring 9.9 points and 5.5 assists while shooting 38% from 3-point range. Now Xu Jie has a steady ball style, a good offensive breakthrough throwing and three-point shooting rate, and is also good at using enthusiasm to fight for frontcourt rebounds, which is a player that Du Feng likes very much.
Looking at Jiang Weize, he averaged 39 minutes per game in the new season, scoring 17.8 points and 5.1 assists, shooting 43% from 3-point range. And Jiang Weize is tested, fans should remember last year's Asian Cup, when his steady projection saved many times and was trusted by Du Feng.
So why Xu Jie and Jiang Weize were not selected also made incomprehensible to many fans. Here the author gives his own opinion, not that Xu Jie and Jiang Wei are not capable enough, but that they have a common "defect", that is, they are not high enough and their strength is insufficient to fight. Jiang Weize is 181 cm tall and weighs 72 kg. Xu Jie is 179 cm tall and weighs 69 kg. Of course, this is not too obvious in CBA competitions, and it is different in international competitions. Looking at the other defenders chosen by Qiao Shuai, the shortest ones are taller than Xu Jie and Jiang Weize, which is easy to explain.
From this selection method, Qiao Shuai and Du Feng's selection concepts are very different. Personally, I feel that Qiao Shuai is a European concept, and the selection of people must have strength to resist, height and so on. And Du Feng is familiar with the first use according to the situation of domestic players. Therefore, fans should not discuss too much, this is only a training list, and subsequent screening will be carried out. If it comes to the World Cup, then Qiao Shuai is probably another batch of candidates, not to say much, looking forward to the performance of this wave of players in the World Preliminary Round.
