It's set.
During the third window of the Asian preliminaries, the Chinese men's basketball team hosted Japan and chose to be held in Shenzhen.
In the first window of the Asian preliminaries, the Chinese men's basketball team lost to Japan 73-76 away, losing to the Japanese men's basketball team for the first time in nearly 88 years.
Since Hachimura and Kawamura Yuki were both in the NBA, they couldn't play in the Asian preliminaries.
Therefore, in the third window of the Asian preliminaries, the Chinese men's basketball team playing at home has great hopes of revenge against Japan, which lacks two cores.
In fact, the situation of the Chinese men's basketball team is also not optimistic, and it is facing a shortage of manpower due to injury problems.
Captain Hu Mingxuan has been confirmed to miss the third window of the Asian preliminaries due to a shoulder injury, and Liao Sanning (foot injury) should not be able to play.
Hu Mingxuan and Liao Sanning, the new starters of the Chinese men's basketball team, have played well in the past games, and their collective truce will undoubtedly have a significant impact on Guo Shiqiang's national team arrangement.
In the past Asian preliminary rounds, the Chinese men's basketball team won 3 wins and 1 loss, 80-49 Mongolia, 73-76 Japan, 101-53 Guam and 90-52 Mongolia, and is currently ranked 5th in the Asian preliminary power rankings, behind Australia, the Philippines, Lebanon and Japan.
Continuing to look at the third window of the next Asian preliminaries, Guo Shiqiang is bound to add new faces to the back line to fill the vacancies left by the injuries of Hu Mingxuan and Liao Sanning, so players such as Lin Wei and Sun Minghui who shine in the league are expected to wear the national team jersey again.
So far this season, Lin Wei has averaged 20.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1.4 steals per game, with career highs in points and assists, while Sun Minghui has averaged 15.1 points, 2.8 rebounds, 9.3 assists and 2.6 steals per game.
Especially Lin Wei, who can be tied with Yang Hansen, Cui Yongxi, Zeng Fanbo, and Yang Hansen, Cui Yongxi, Zeng Fanbo, and the former coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, Djordjevic, during the national team, he showed good ability, but it is puzzling that he has never been able to be looked at by Guo Shiqiang.
Perhaps, the rumors of the conflict between Lin Wei and Guo Shiqiang last summer were not groundless, but no matter what, personal grievances cannot override the interests of the national team!
Chinese men's basketball team, come on, the opportunity to wash away the shame is right in front of you!
