Yesterday, the Chinese Basketball Association officially announced the hiring of Guo Shiqiang as the coach of the Chinese men's basketball team.

In the announcement, there is also this sentence:

"The Chinese Basketball Association will continue to adhere to the team formation principle of world vision, international standards, Chinese characteristics, and high-point positioning", benchmark the international advanced level, form a Chinese and foreign international compound team, and build a Chinese men's basketball team with excellent style, good fighting, advanced concepts and distinctive characteristics. ”

In preparation for the 2027 Men's Basketball World Cup and the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.

......

That's a good thing to say.

Let's talk about my personal opinion.

In 2009, he led the team to defeat Tianjin, and the "snickering door" incident on the player's podium, the young young marshal Guo Shiqiang was gloomy and resigned.

15 years later, Coach Guo, who has gray temples, once again took the helm of the Chinese men's basketball team.

In 15 years, he experienced a lot of failures in the league and accumulated a lot of experience, and finally led the Liao Basketball team to a positive result in 2018, and he became the champion coach of the CBA.

After moving south to Guangdong, he also helped Guangzhou become a playoff team.

In 2021, the sentence "Our Guangzhou team is a weak team, we were weak before, it doesn't mean that we will be weak in the future", whether it is a promise or a declaration, he has indeed done it.

At the CBA level, he is indeed a good coach.

His love for basketball and his dedication are not shared by all coaches, and Coach Guo has indeed put his energy into coaching, which is admirable.

Now that he is in charge of the men's basketball team, I also admire his responsibility and courage. This job is very difficult to do, and being scolded is a high probability event.

At this stage, the problem of the Chinese men's basketball team is the head coach?

Can you bring the United States coaching staff over and lead us to Los Angeles in 2028?

In this reality, I believe that the vast majority of the brothers who can read the official account of Brother Di are rational and have a good idea.

Sitting on the time machine, to the 2027 World Cup, it will be difficult for us to get the best results in Asia.

My most straightforward question is: Do you have Yao Ming? Do you have Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi?

With the current players, they really can't support us to go to the Olympics...

Doncic's teams of Slovenia, Lithuania and Croatia can't go to Paris, so why should we go?

After the FIBA restructuring, it is too unfriendly for us to enter the Olympic Games, unlike before, when we just won the championship in the Asian Championships, now we have to get the best results in Asia in the World Cup, which is obviously more difficult.

Therefore, everyone still needs to lower their expectations.

However, lowering expectations doesn't mean lying flat on the ground.

As a fan, I still hope to see some changes in the new Olympic cycle.

Therefore, I have a lot of confusion about the selection and appointment of the national team this summer.

If you keep saying that you want to prepare for the next Olympics, why can't you be bold enough to use new people?

And are truly newcomers.

If there is a player, he is 28 years old, he has already proven that he is not good in the national team, and he has not performed well in the league, and the opponent does not dare to shoot 3 meters away, why can he still enter the team and take up a lot of playing time?

I don't believe it, 28-year-old can't understand, he can suddenly open up at the age of 31? I've never seen anything like this...

"Training young players", is it a bit fake?

When we reach a certain age, our generation of fans will learn to understand a lot of things, not just open their mouths and scold.

I can understand that a team needs veterans to press the lineup, and if you bring players with professional attitude and spirit like Han Dejun and Li Xiaoxu to the team, I can understand that.

They can not play, but they can set an example in training.

I can also understand that the head coach likes to use acquaintances, and the descendants are more obedient and can understand intentions better, and the old K also selected Plumlee into the team back then.

But will Plumlee be able to play 28 minutes...

I can understand the series of losses of the national team this summer, after all, whether it was 2007 or 2019, we went to the summer league to win less and lose more.

However, you have to lose clearly, right?

If a player of Zhao Weilun and Lin Wei's age loses, then at least you can comfort yourself with the "young team"... I'm not sure if they're going to do it, but at least these players are worth a try.

What I know for sure is that some of the players who are still in their positions are really not working...

Since the goal is the '27 World Cup and the '28 Olympics, the question arises:What kind of opportunities should we give our players?

This is my biggest question when Director Guo Shiqiang officially took office.

An "old man" who has worked for many years, one thing I have always envied is:

After Yao Ming's retirement, the youth of the Chinese men's basketball team will remain forever...
