The Chinese men's basketball team has no major tournament to play this year, and the Asian preliminaries in February are the most important events. At present, the second phase of CBA is in full swing, Zhao Jiwei, Hu Jinqiu and other veteran players are still strong, Abudu Salamu and other players are back to the top, and many post-00s stand out. The new training team is bound to change, but there are 6 people indispensable, 2 people in Liaoyue, Zhao Rui has a big role, and 2 post-00s have great potential, the specific list is as follows.
There are not many internal talent reserves, Zhou Qi, Hu Jinqiu, Yu Jiahao, Wang Zhelin, Shen Zijie, Zou Yuchen, Yang Hansen and other players have the best chance of being selected for the national team, among which Zhou Qi is irreplaceable, as long as he stays healthy, he is still the first person on the inside, and his contribution to the defensive end is very large. It can be seen from the game of the Guangdong team that when Zhou Qi was absent, the quality of the interior defense declined seriously, and even lost to the Shanxi team before.
Young Hansen is a first-year rookie, only 18 years old this year, but he is very prominent, has been among the top centers, and even attracted the attention of NBA scouts, well-known draft websites ranked him 30th in the first round, his style of play is very similar to Jokic, with strong adaptability. Looking at the active inside, no one can play like Yang Hansen, as a big center, the organizational ability is comparable to that of a guard, as of now, he is the league's block king, the local rebounding king, when he is on the court, it is equivalent to an additional offensive starting point.
Since Qiao Shuai coached the national team, the forward line likes to use a tall lineup, Zhang Zhenlin, Zhu Junlong, Du Runwang, Zeng Fanbo, and Li Kaier are all players of this type, either top pitchers, able to open up space, or able to play multiple positions. After Zhou Peng faded out of the national team, the forward line needed a new core, and no one was irreplaceable in the last national team. Abdul Salamu has shaken off injury trouble this season and played an MVP-level performance, he can shoot three-pointers, can play low back, and does a good job of protecting rebounds on the defensive end, which is in line with Qiao Shuai's selection ideas, and has rich experience, and is expected to become the core of the forward line.
The guard line is the shortcoming of the men's basketball team, and players who lack a core style of play can score like a small foreign aid and organize tandem, just like Waters of the Guangdong team. Zhao Rui, Zhao Jiwei, Sun Minghui, Hu Mingxuan, Cui Yongxi and other players are still the first choice. However, most of the defenders can find replacements, Hu Mingxuan and Cheng Shuaipeng have similar styles, and Cui Yongxi, Qi Lin, and Zou Yang can all play forward defenders. Relatively speaking, Zhao Jiwei's role is irreplaceable, he is completely based on passing as the first choice, which can make the offense more fluid, the overall situation is unique, and the defensive contribution value ranks first this season, and the only thing that needs to be improved is scoring stability.
Zhao Rui has both height and weight, outstanding confrontation ability, even in the international arena, he can carry the opponent to the basket, the last World Cup shined, is the team's second scorer, second only to Li Kaier, has proven himself. Under the high-intensity confrontation, Zhao Rui is one of the few defenders who can play normally, and he is also quite accomplished on the defensive end, and he is the outside defensive gate, after all, the tonnage is there, and the height is very advantageous in the No. 1 position. This season, injuries have come and gone, so I have missed a lot of games, but the problem is not too big, and it should be able to catch up with the Asian preliminaries in February, and the same type of He Xining and Cui Xiaolong still need to grow.
The men's basketball team needs top pitchers, Du Runwang performed well in the Asian Games, but his defense needs to be strengthened, the lateral movement ability is insufficient, the guard line needs people who can shoot three points, Lin Wei is fully competent, although he is only 20 years old, but the progress is visible to the naked eye, he has scored an average of 20+ points per game, and has grown into a top scorer. He can ignore the defense like a foreign aid, hit difficult shots, and often hit key shots, and has strengthened his defense and organization this season, and has no problem playing the No. 1 position at all, and his confrontation ability is stronger than that of pitchers such as Wu Qian and Yuan Shuai.
Looking at the current players of the Chinese men's basketball team, 6 people are indispensable, namely Zhou Qi, Yang Hansen, Abdul Salamu, Zhao Jiwei, Zhao Rui, Lin Wei, it is difficult to find a replacement. Needless to say, Zhou Qi's strength is there, and Yang Hansen's ability to respond is outstanding, which is a type that the past few national teams have never had. Zhao Rui and Zhao Jiwei have their own characteristics, Lin Wei's shooting ability is outstanding, and Abdul Salamu is expected to be the answer to the front.
