According to the official announcement of the Chinese Basketball Association, Guo Shiqiang was hired to prepare for the 2027 Men's Basketball World Cup and the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. Guo Shiqiang led the Chinese men's basketball team to overseas training as an assistant coach this offseason, but unfortunately the Australian and United States summer leagues are difficult to win, many of them ended in fiasco, but this did not affect Guo Shiqiang's turnaround, the Chinese Basketball Association still chose to believe in Guo Shiqiang's ability, but the outside world is generally not optimistic, and even some people have begun to miss Djordjevic.
Tu Shuai's coaching is inevitably questioned about nepotism, this summer Guo Shiqiang was criticized for bringing a lot of his own lineage, and there have been contradictions with Lin Wei from the outside world, and now Guo Shiqiang has officially become the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, Lin Wei should be the biggest, and the future of the national team is worrying. Lin Wei is a very good young man in China, and has a lot of fan groups, the topic of Guo Shiqiang and Lin Wei will inevitably be mentioned again and again in the future, as for whether Guo Shiqiang will give Lin Wei a chance to coach, it depends on the situation of the national team training in the future. There should be no better alternative for the Basketball Association to choose Guo Shiqiang as the head coach, and the Chinese men's basketball team went around and around and finally returned to the local coach mode.
Relying on the current men's basketball player reserves, in fact, it is difficult to change who to coach the results up, today, the old opponent of the Chinese men's basketball team, South Sudan almost overturned the United States team, South Sudan's model is very worthy of reference for the Chinese men's basketball team, many South Sudanese players are playing in the United States, Australian leagues, and there are also players who play in the CBA, such as Shandong's Shayok, Zhejiang's Jones played very well against United States. Although South Sudan has relatively poor domestic conditions, they have a large number of naturalized players to form a team, and now they can even fight against the dream team United States, we should really consider the issue of naturalization.
In our basketball system, naturalized players are still relatively difficult to be recognized, but we have also naturalized players like Li Kaier with a certain Chinese ancestry, but Li Kaier's type is not a player that the Chinese men's basketball team urgently needs, at present, the Chinese men's basketball team is in a state of no core, there used to be Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Yi Jianlian and other world-class players, but now there is no such phenomenal player, it is difficult for the Chinese men's basketball team to be competitive internationally, so naturalization is the most suitable path for the Chinese men's basketball team, The position that needs to be naturalized is a guard or a striker, who has the ability to score efficiently, rather than a more functional player like Li Kaier.
