Reach the World Cup final! The Serbian coach and captain talked about the Chinese men's basketball team, and they hit the nail on the head
2023 Men's Basketball World Cup Finals Serbia vs Germany men's basketball is about to start, no one expected that the Canadian and American men's basketball team would actually be eliminated by two European teams, many people think that the American men's basketball team lost to the German men's basketball team is incredible, but if you watch the German men's basketball team's previous victory game, then you will definitely feel that the German men's basketball team relies on strength to win. The Serbian men's basketball team is the same, this World Cup, the overall strength of the Canadian men's basketball team is even stronger than the American men's basketball team, but the Serbian men's basketball team taught the opponent a lesson in the semifinals, showing what is called real European basketball.
I think these games in Serbia have also taught the Chinese men's basketball team a lesson, and we must learn hard. This side also shows that our Serbian head coach Jordjevic has two brushes, but the Chinese men's basketball team has not found his instruction manual.
A brief recap of the match between Serbia and Canada and the Chinese men's basketball team. The key to their semifinal victory, the 10-man rotation of half of the players scored double-doubles, and captain Bogdanovic exploded, shooting 8-of-12 from the field for 23 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals, led the team to defeat Canada and limited opponents to 90 points. The Serbian men's basketball team took full advantage of its height and grabbed 11 more rebounds than its opponents, and the key to winning was teamwork, excellent counterattack tactics, aggressive scrambling and steady shooting.
And it just so happened that the Chinese men's basketball team lost to Serbia in two games (a warm-up game and a World Cup group stage), and they also comprehensively crushed the Chinese men's basketball team at these points. However, Serbia's head coach and captain's evaluation of the Chinese men's basketball team still has face. Serbian men's basketball coach Pešić believes: the Chinese men's basketball team is well prepared before the game, the head coach of Jordjevic also put forward clear requirements for them, the whole team has invested great efforts, in the warm-up game played in Shenzhen, the Chinese men's basketball team showed its competitiveness, the first half of the Chinese men's basketball team started a little tightly, and then also showed excellent defensive ability, there is no game that can be easily won in the World Cup.
Serbian captain Bogdanovic once praised Chinese men's basketball guard Hu Mingxuan in an interview, and he even thought that the Chinese No. 3 player (Hu Mingxuan) broke through with the ball in his left hand and was difficult to defend, he played very impactfully, and there was also a basket on the outside, just like Harden and Ginobili were as difficult to defend. Bogdanovic told reporters that they will focus on Hu Mingxuan in the World Cup group stage and will not let him play in such a comfortable and comfortable environment.
Sure enough, Hu Mingxuan performed day by day in the World Cup group stage and warm-up matches, from easily cutting 2-digit points in a single game to swallowing 0 points on 0-of-4 shooting. This shows that Serbia is a team that is good at summing up games and making adjustments. The unstable performance of the Chinese men's basketball team is also a reflection of insufficient strength.
Giordević strives to build the Chinese men's basketball team into a "Serbian system" team, the same as the Serbian tall team, but also 1 small 4 system, Serbia has 1.98 shooting guard Bogdanovic, Qiao Shuai also chose to bring 1.99 meters Cui Yongxi, but the result was not satisfactory.
Qiao Shuai did not expect that the Chinese men's basketball team would play so poorly, we obviously have an advantage in height, but we can't play the effect of joint defense, and even rebounds can't grab the Philippine men's basketball team. Serbia allows a Jokic to win rebounds every game, even if a player loses a kidney after an elbow. In addition, the basic skills of the Chinese men's basketball team are too poor, the physical fitness is not good, and the projection is also a big problem, and even most players have no baskets, and three points and free throws can be three times, which makes Qiao Shuai hit hard, making himself confused and losing the ability to dispatch on the spot.
As Wang Shipeng said: Our players play like uncles in the CBA league, without any sense of crisis, and they have to be coaxed every day. The cards in Qiao's hands are not Serbia's players, and our players' league is "overprotected", resulting in players who are not able to play against international competitions and do not handle the ball under defensive pressure. This also reminded Yao Ming that changing coaches frequently cannot solve the problem, we still have to start from the domestic professional league.
