On July 7, Beijing time, the NBA Summer League, the young players of the Chinese team played against the Kings, originally wanted to take the experience of the top league as a big test of the domestic basketball level, facing the NBA team, hoping that the Chinese team could achieve something, but the result was surprisingly one-sided, and finally lost the game with a score of 50-101.
Soon after the start of the game, the Kings quickly took a 5-0 lead, China's Liao Sanning broke the scoring drought through a wonderful breakthrough layup, it can be seen that the Chinese team still has the ability to counterattack, and then the Kings' rapid counterattack and accurate shooting quickly opened the score gap to double digits, although Cheng Shuai Peng found an offensive feeling in the first quarter of the game, but it was no match for the Kings' outside firepower, and the Chinese team fell behind 20-33 at the end of the first quarter.
Entering the second quarter, the Kings' offense did not decrease, and the Chinese team scored with the efforts of Yu Jiahao and Wang Lanyan, but unfortunately the Kings had an obvious advantage, and the score was stretched to 29-52 at halftime.
In the second half of the game, the Chinese team seemed to be affected by jet lag and fatigue, and the performance was even more lonely, scoring only 7 points in the third quarter, and the performance of this quarter determined the final direction of the game, the Kings used consecutive points to extend the lead, and at the end of the third quarter, the score had come to 77-36, and the Chinese team faced a huge point difference.
In the last quarter, the Chinese team tried to counterattack, Cheng Shuaipeng and Yang Hansen's performance slightly saved some of the situation, but the game was settled, Cheng Shuaipeng scored 16 points in this game, becoming the highest scoring player of the Chinese team, Yang Hansen also scored 8 points, and finally the Chinese team lost to the Kings.
It is worth mentioning that the young players of the Chinese men's basketball team, Liao Sanning and Cheng Shuaipeng, performed well, Liao Sanning did not break through the game much, his activity and breakthrough ability is an encouragement to the team, Cheng Shuaipeng is the scorer, scored 16 points in the game, showing his competitiveness in the international arena.
The overall performance of the game shows that the Chinese men's basketball team is deficient in tactical execution and personal skills, lacks change and creativity on the offensive end, many guards are too straight when holding the ball and attacking, and lack of rhythm changes, which makes their offense easy to be predicted and destroyed by the opponent, and the players make relatively many mistakes in the game, and the psychology and skills of the players in the high-intensity game need to be further exercised and improved.
On the defensive end, the Chinese men's basketball team was powerless in the face of the Kings' strong offensive firepower, and the Kings' strong attacks and quick counterattacks broke the Chinese team's defense many times, and the Chinese team's rebounding control was not satisfactory, which largely limited their counterattack opportunities and ball possession time.
Guo Shiqiang, the coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, tried a variety of lineups and tactics in the game in order to find the most suitable game method and player configuration, and made a wide range of substitutions during the game, which provided each player with valuable international competition experience and opportunities to show themselves.
The result of this game is a little unsightly, in the top league, the game with the strong team for the Chinese men's basketball team, it is more of an opportunity to learn and grow, in the face of high-level opponents, the Chinese men's basketball team needs to improve in many aspects of technology, tactical execution and psychological quality, through such a high-intensity game The young players of the Chinese team can get exercise, increase experience, so as to cheer for glory in higher international competitions in the future, I hope that the Chinese men's basketball team can learn from this experience and constantly improve themselves, Show better competitive form and team spirit, every game is a new beginning, and every challenge is an opportunity to move towards higher goals.
