Before the match between the French team and the Chinese team in the U17 Men's Basketball World Cup, it is estimated that no one would have thought that the Chinese men's basketball team would win the game. After all, in the warm-up match between the two teams not long ago, the Chinese men's basketball team lost 48-90 to the opponent by as many as 42 points.
Moreover, in this World Cup, the French team ranks second in the power rankings, second only to the United States. China, on the other hand, was only in 14th place and lost the first game to the little-known African team Guinea.
But the arena has always been a place to create miracles, and the Chinese men's basketball team in a low period is undoubtedly particularly eager for such a victory. In the end, after trailing by 15 points at most, the Chinese men's basketball team achieved a super reversal and defeated the French team 73-70.
In this game, Zhang Boyuan scored 18 points and 8 rebounds, and hit a crucial throw at the last moment, while Xun Sinan scored 12 points and 10 boards, and Li Yuezhou scored 14 points. It can be said that the Chinese men's basketball team won the game with an extremely wonderful defense. In the final crucial moments, they relied on the whole team to defend together, allowing France to make a fatal mistake and win the game.
After the game, everyone gave full affirmation to this game, indeed, since the 2008 Olympic Games, the Chinese men's national basketball team has not had such a major victory for too long.
With Yi Jianlian's retirement, the Chinese men's basketball team has been at a low point, not only did it not get a seat for two consecutive Olympic Games, but also did not even qualify for the Olympic Games, and the Asian Games held at home did not get the gold medal. What worries NBA legend Yao Ming even more is the reserve of reserve talents, whether it is Zhou Qi, Guo Allen, Wang Zhelin, or Abdul Salamu, they are not enough to become the leading players of the men's basketball team.
But seeing this Chinese men's basketball team, seeing their spirit, and seeing their game state, it is estimated that Yao Ming's heart is happy, at least we see the hope of the future of the men's basketball team. If they are trained properly, it is still worth looking forward to relying on them to impact the Olympics in the future. In fact, it is a shame to say that our next Olympics will be four years away at the earliest, and their group of players is exactly 21 years old.
At half past five in the afternoon of July 2, the boys of the Chinese men's basketball team will welcome the strongest opponent of this Cup, the United States, who beat Guinea by as many as 75 points 124-49. In this game, it is almost impossible for the Chinese men's basketball team to win, but I hope that the boys will play their own style and play the momentum of the Chinese men's basketball team.
