On January 21, Beijing time, it is a traditional Chinese Chinese New Year's Eve, and at this moment, the Chinese basketball scene has entered a short offseason, players and coaches will go home to reunite with their families and spend the Spring Festival together. However, after the Spring Festival, the Chinese men's basketball team will also be busy, they will start a new round of games, in February, the last window of the World Preliminary Round two games, Djordjevic very important, he is new to the team, to face Kazakhstan and Iran, what results will be achieved, it is interesting to see. Of course, the current situation in the CBA league is still a little unexpected for many fans, and the first place is the Zhejiang men's basketball team, which is dominated by the youth army.
This season, Zhejiang team, under the guidance of Wang Shilong, a group of young players played a different team basketball, currently ranking first with a record of 23 wins and 4 losses, which many people did not expect before the start of the season. The team basketball of the Zhejiang men's basketball team has changed the style of playing based on super foreign aid or stars in previous years, but pays more attention to the cooperation and sharing of the ball of the entire group on the court, such a basketball tactical system, which is also the future development direction of basketball in the world. Of course, last season's defending champion Liaoning men's basketball team also performed well, not only did they rank second in the standings, but also in terms of the team's form, they are still on the rise, which also gives fans hope for this team's success in defending its title this season. Of course, the most admirable is the Guangdong men's basketball team, who defeated the powerful Liaoning men's basketball team in the last game before the Spring Festival, which made many Guangdong fans ecstatic.
For the performance of these teams, the new head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, Joordjevic, is naturally also in the eyes, just the day before, the Chinese men's basketball team also announced the 18-person roster, Guo Allen as the captain, Wu Qian, Cheng Shuaipeng, Zhao Jiwei, Zhang Zhenlin, Zhao Rui, Hu Mingxuan, Zeng Fanbo, Wang Zhelin, Zhou Peng, Zhu Xuhang, Hu Jinqiu, Zhu Junlong, Zhu Mingzhen, Jiao Boqiao, Cui Yongxi, Cui Xiaolong and Zhou Qi were successfully selected. From this list, Jordjevic has his own ideas, and it was previously reported by the media that since Giordević has just arrived, he needs a period of time to understand Chinese players, so he will receive a recommended list. But in fact, judging from the last 18-man training list, the selection of many players is very surprising, and these should be the players personally determined by Giordević himself.
Combined with the previous period, Jordjevic said in an exclusive interview with domestic media that the two important criteria for the selection of Chinese men's basketball teams in the future are the selection of players with strong defensive ability, and the second is team-type players. Therefore, some fans revealed that the starting five tigers of the Chinese men's basketball team are about to be released, and a 25-year-old fierce player who has just returned from a major injury will also be reused by the European famous coach, and is even expected to play in the European basketball scene in the future. Personally, I think that this statement revealed by the fans should have some truth.
Let's first take a look at who are the starting five tigers of the Chinese men's basketball team? Center Zhou Qi, forwards Hu Jinqiu and Zhang Zhenlin, defenders Allen Guo and Zhao Jiwei. The strength of this set of starting five tigers is believed to be worth the expectation of all fans, especially Hu Jinqiu, who was previously affected by a serious injury in the playoffs last season, but his ability after his return is very appreciated by Jordjevic. You must know that so far this season, Hu Jinqiu has played an average of 33.4 minutes per game, averaging 19 points and 8.7 rebounds per game, which undoubtedly makes Jordjevic firmly believe that this is the best No. 4 player in Chinese basketball.
Fans familiar with Eurobasketball know very well that Eurobasketball pays attention to physical confrontation and shooting accuracy for interior players, and it just so happens that Hu Jinqiu is very good in both aspects. With a height of 2.11 meters, he has an absolute height advantage in the No. 4 position, including bouncing, and is second to none in Chinese basketball. Not only that, Hu Jinqiu shoots a percentage that many No. 4 players do not have, and he shot 71.1% from the field last season, which surprised Jordjevic.
As a famous European coach, Jordjevic has a wide network in European basketball, this time to coach the Chinese men's basketball team, Hu Jinqiu can become his love general, the future through his matchmaking, landing in Europe to play, there is indeed great hope. Of course, from Hu Jinqiu's point of view, since he has returned to the national team, what kind of state should he use next to repay the trust of the head coach and help the Chinese men's basketball team play well in the following games, which is the most important thing, and we look forward to the performance of Daqiu.
