On August 30, in the third round of the 2023 Men's Basketball World Cup group stage, the Chinese men's basketball team lost to the Puerto Rican men's basketball team 89-107, suffered three consecutive losses, and was eliminated in the World Cup group stage! It is worth mentioning that the Chinese men's basketball team suffered three consecutive defeats in the World Cup group stage, which also means that the Chinese men's basketball team is getting farther and farther away from returning to the Paris Olympics.
Before the start of the men's basketball World Cup group stage, the Chinese Basketball Association set a goal for the Chinese men's basketball team to achieve the best results in Asia and get the ticket to the Paris Olympic Games! Now it seems that the "small goal" set by the Chinese Basketball Association for the Chinese men's basketball team has become a joke in the eyes of everyone, and getting tickets for the Paris Olympics has become a luxury.
In fact, after the match with the Serbian men's basketball team, the end of the Chinese men's basketball team was already predetermined! Yang Yi, a well-known media person, said in his interpretation of the Chinese men's basketball team that the loss of the Chinese men's basketball team to Serbia is predictable, and the loss to South Sudan is also acceptable.
The problem is that the Chinese men's basketball team lost by 42 points against Serbia, which surprised everyone! After that, the Chinese men's basketball team lost by 20 points against South Sudan and 62 points in two games.
At the end of the 3 games, the Chinese men's basketball team lost a complete defeat, and the trust of domestic fans in the Chinese men's basketball team was shattered!
