In the Asian Games in the summer, the Chinese men's basketball team met the Philippine men's basketball team again, this time without Clarkson, and there should be no problem in winning it.
Who knows, they popped up another Brownlee.
Then, in an almost identical way to the World Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team was once again forced into a "desperate situation".
This is also the most dissatisfied with the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, Djordjevic.
Why can the same mistake be made twice in a row?
knew that the opponent had this "strong point", but he didn't take a key defensive approach, so that he found the feeling of offense in the second half, and then hit consecutive three-pointers from the outside, taking the game away in a wave.
In other words, even if it is to wrap him up, force him to pass the ball to other teammates, let other teammates complete the attack, if he still scores in the end, then at least we tried.
Not just watching, the victory of the game slipped away from the hands of the Chinese men's basketball team in such a grand manner.
Of course, there is still a chance to "turn defeat into victory" at the last moment.
That was Zhang Zhenlin's last shot.
As long as it is thrown, the result of the game and the "fate" of the entire Chinese men's basketball team can be rewritten in the end.
However, Zhang Zhenlin made an extremely wrong choice.
There are no defenders within 5 meters in front of him, including the opponent players under the basket are also firmly blocked by Hu Jinqiu, at this time, as long as Zhang Zhenlin rushes to the basket, jumps up under the basket, and makes his best dunk action as usual, smashing the basketball into the basket, everything will be different.
However, he chose a method that no one expected, and that was mid-range shooting.
Of course, it doesn't mean that mid-range shooting is necessarily bad, in fact, as long as it can be shot, its effect is the same as dunking.
However, there are several very debatable points in this.
First of all, as mentioned earlier, the breakthrough route and the space under the basket at that time were undoubtedly more suitable for layups.
Secondly, the layup must still be more certain than the shooting, especially Zhang Zhenlin has never been good at shooting, and then, his overall shooting percentage in that game was also very bad.
So, it's not just a matter of making a wrong choice, it's also a reflection of a player's mental activity on the pitch, which is that he is not ready to win, and at the same time, he does not think that he can win this game by himself.
The most important thing is that he can go to the basket but chooses to shoot, which also shows that he does not dare to win.
This is the point that many fans are most angry about.
When the ball reached his hand, he only felt that it was so "hot", if it wasn't for the time press, he would probably pass the ball out again and hand it over to his teammates to deal with.
Aside from everything else, the league is also a well-known existence, and the national team is not a complete "newcomer".
How could there be such a lack of courage and responsibility at a critical moment.
No wonder the current Chinese men's basketball team is in such a recession.
Back in the 2006 World Championships, the Chinese men's basketball team played against the Slovenian men's basketball team.
As Sloka threw the ball near the free-throw line against Wang Zhizhi's defense, the score became 77-75.
China trailed by two points and were less than six seconds away from full-time.
At this time, I saw Wang Shipeng, who was wearing the No. 7 Chinese team jersey, dribbling the ball and running quickly to the front court, coming to the three-point line and making a decisive shot, the ball went into the light, Wang Shipeng killed Slovenia, and the Chinese men's basketball team qualified.
For this scene, many veteran fans should be very familiar with it.
This is the most thrilling and important goal in the entire history of the Chinese men's basketball team.
To some extent, he rewrote the history of the Chinese men's basketball team, and even rewrote Wang Shipeng's entire career.
Moreover, fans who watched this game know that before the goal was scored, Wang Shipeng did not score any sports battle in the game, not to mention whether he scored or not, so how did he have the courage and confidence to shoot?
In a show by Yang Yi this summer, Wang Shipeng "revealed" the secret.
Yang Yi: You didn't score a goal before you scored that goal, and normally, in this game, a player who hasn't scored any goals won't come to make the last throw.
Of course, there was no time to set it up, but in terms of the confidence and self-perception of the players, the ball could have been made differently in the end.
Were you sure the moment you received the ball?
Wang Shipeng: The moment the ball came into my hand, I thought to myself, the opportunity has come, this time, I won't give anyone, I will fix it inside.
To be honest, I have dreamed of this scene countless times in my dreams, riding the Savior alone.
So, when the ball is in your hand, all you have left is the hoop.
You have to dare to think, you have to dare to do, and in the end you can get a result.
What is courage, what is responsibility, and what is the consciousness that a national team player should have.
It has been vividly reflected in Wang Shipeng's short sentences.
Now the players, let's learn hard...
