On February 23, Beijing time, European coach Jordjevic ushered in the debut of the Chinese men's basketball team, facing opponents far inferior to themselves, although the Chinese men's basketball team led by 21 points in the first half of the offensive and defensive suppression, but the second half of the offensive dumb was gradually forced by the opponent to the score, even if the final 71-59 win is not satisfactory. Qiao Shuai's coaching debut brought three major changes, such as tall team building, reuse of forward lines and emphasis on defensive details, but at the same time, it also exposed shortcomings, especially the basic skills, poor shooting and tactical use need to continue to improve.
The Chinese men's basketball team chose Jordjević to coach, undoubtedly valuing his outstanding achievements in coaching the Serbian men's basketball team in the past, as well as the changes he can bring to the Chinese men's basketball team, hoping to help the Chinese men's basketball team better connect with the world's leading basketball trend.
Jordjevic's coaching debut, the first half did not encounter much obstacles, after all, there is a clear gap in the strength of the Kazakhstan men's basketball team, but the second half of the performance is not ideal. Jordjevic's leadership of the team for more than 20 days also gave a "small test" test, which also reflected some coaching differences between him and Du Feng, but also exposed a lot of problems.
1. Qiao Shuai built a tall and younger team, and followed the world trend with European and American strong teams.
When important rotation players in the Du Feng era, such as Xu Jie and Jiang Weize, did not qualify for Qiao Shuai's national team lineup, and were replaced by Zeng Fanbo, Zhu Xuhang, Cui Yongxi and Jiao Boqiao, it can be seen that Qiao Shuai wants to build a high-level idea for building a team. The starting five tigers of the Chinese men's basketball team in this game continued the previous two warm-up games, except for Zhao Jiwei, who is only 1.85 meters tall, Cui Yongxi is 1.99 meters tall, Zhang Zhenlin and Zhou Peng are more than 2.05 meters tall, and Zhou Qi is 2.17 meters tall.
The overall height of the Chinese men's basketball team occupies an absolute advantage, which has become the key to being able to continue to suppress the opponent in the first half, and it is also a gradual integration with the strong European and American teams to create a higher, faster and stronger team. In addition, the team's youth is also an important factor in maintaining impact, after all, only Zhou Peng is over 30 years old in the team, but being too young also brings the crux of inexperience.
2. Different from Du Feng's preference for three defenders, he reuses forward rotation but the first game is collectively sluggish.
Du Feng likes to use a three-guard lineup during his days, and he coached the Guangdong men's basketball team with such an idea, after all, the Guangdong men's basketball team has no potential center. Yi Jianlian continues to age, relying more on projection, and the introduction of Hamilton is not an absolute super interior line, so Du Feng's tactical idea is still dominated by defenders.
Qiao Shuai prefers to use forward players, filling tactical needs with forwards who can run, jump and pass and shoot, so the 12-man roster in the first game has only 4 defenders. Qiao Shuai's use of forwards requires them to be able to balance defensive oppression and play offensive aggression, but because the overall shooting effect is not good, Zhang Zhenlin, Zhu Xuhang, Zhou Pengde are all poor shooting crosshairs, resulting in the first game can not reflect the role of reusing forwards.
3. Emphasize the defense and pay close attention to the details, but the overall basic skills of the Chinese men's basketball team are still rough.
There is still a limit to what can be reflected in a game, but Qiao Shuai stressed that the defense has been fully reflected, causing the opponent to make four mistakes in less than one minute into the first quarter, and forcing the opponent to send nine errors in the first quarter. The Chinese men's basketball team played an iron-blooded defense in the first two quarters, limiting the opponent to 12 points and 10 points in a single quarter, which became the key to the Chinese men's basketball team's 21-point half-time lead, but the offensive power outage in the second half led to forced close scores, and the final win was not too easy, and it was also a sounding alarm again.
It's just that the basic skills of the Chinese men's basketball team are still extremely bad, and many players revealed that they paid close attention to details and emphasized defense during training, but apparently it has not worked yet. The Chinese men's basketball team made 6 of 23 three-point sights and 15 of 27 free throws was not ideal, and only 11 assists tended to fight alone, all of which are the embodiment of not being able to effectively understand tactics to form an overall combat effectiveness.
The Chinese men's basketball team will also face the Iranian men's basketball team on February 26, and Jordjevic will undoubtedly continue to adjust the lineup, and may also try more different personnel rotations and tactical uses, but also expect him to continue to bring different changes.
