On July 29, Beijing time, the Chinese women's basketball team experienced a suspenseful overtime in the first game of the group stage of the Paris Olympics, and finally lost to the Spain women's basketball team 89-90. This game was supposed to be a stage for the Chinese women's basketball team to show its strength, but in the end, a few key mistakes allowed the victory to slip through the fingers.
At the critical moment of the game, the Chinese women's basketball team made a fatal mistake in defense. In the final moments, when the opposition was preparing to attack, we failed to effectively foul the table, giving them unnecessary chances to score. On the offensive side, Wang Siyu chose to play the inside line indecisively in the final offensive round and missed the opportunity to tie the score.
In the post-match interview, head coach Zheng Wei confessed to his tactical mistakes in the game. She said that she originally planned to use the twin tower system in the game, that is, to have Li Yueru and Han Xu partner on the inside. However, due to the lack of sufficient run-in time, this tactical plan was not implemented as planned. Her outspokenness has given many people a clearer understanding of the preparation of the Chinese women's basketball team at critical moments.
After the interview, many fans had a heated discussion about Zheng Wei's candor online. A netizen named Xiao Li posted on social platforms: "Zheng Wei admitted that the Twin Towers did not play, which is really the truth. Didn't you think about it before the game, though? It feels a little irresponsible. Another netizen named Ah Feng commented: "It's a good thing that the coach can confess, at least not to shirk responsibility." But at the end of the day, the game is fought, and a mistake is a mistake. What is needed now is how to learn from this game. ”
In the basketball forum, some netizens also launched a heated discussion. Netizen Xiao Zhang wrote in the post: "Zheng Wei said that there is no time to run in the twin tower system, I understand. But in such a crucial game, the situation really doesn't feel nuanced enough. Another fan named Xiao Yang mentioned: "What we should think about now is how to make the team adapt as soon as possible, instead of blindly blaming the coach." Coaching also has its own difficulties, but hopefully plan ahead in the future. ”
The performance on the part of the players has also been questioned. Defenders Wang Siyu and Yang Liwei were disappointing in the game, especially in terms of defensive and offensive options. Wu Tongtong's form has not been as consistent as expected, which makes the team's back line particularly weak.
In the face of future competitions, the adjustment of the Chinese women's basketball team is imperative. At this critical juncture, Coach Zheng Wei's tactical strategy needs to make some important adjustments. Specifically, giving young players Yang Shuyu and Luo Xinqi more opportunities to play could bring unexpected changes.
Yang Shuyu and Luo Xinqi, two young players, have performed well in attacking ability. In the previous games, Yang Shuyu not only had strong breakthrough ability and stable shooting, but also was able to remain calm at critical moments. Her addition can bring more impact and stability to the guard line of the Chinese women's basketball team. As we all know, the Chinese women's basketball team at this stage is facing many problems at both offensive and defensive ends, especially the performance of the guard line is often worrying. The addition of Yang Shuyu will undoubtedly allow the team to have more options on the offensive end and break the current deadlock.
Luo Xinqi should not be underestimated. As the most accurate scorer of the Chinese women's basketball team, Luo Xinqi has a strong threat in outside shooting. Her three-point shooting ability can not only open up space, but also stabilize the morale of the army at critical moments. In the previous game, Luo Xinqi also showed his accurate shooting under pressure. This ability is exactly what the Chinese women's basketball team urgently needs, especially when the opponent's defense is tight, her outside shooting will play a vital role.
Another suggestion to adjust the tactics is to consider adjusting Li Meng to point guard. Li Meng not only has excellent ball control ability, but also can effectively organize the attack. She has been excellent in assists and is able to help her teammates find scoring opportunities better. Li Meng's keen vision and precise passing during the game made her an indispensable role in the team. If she is put in the point guard position, her all-round ability will be able to maximize her ability to bring more variety and opportunities to the team.
Li Yueru said after the game that she had grown in this game, but what really mattered was to help the team win the game. She is confident about the upcoming game against Serbia and says the team will go all out to turn things around and secure victory in the group stage.
Netizens commented: "In the words of head coach Zheng Wei, 'the Chinese women's basketball team is not a strong team', and it is inevitable that the weak chicken team will lose!" As soon as these words came out, they instantly sparked a heated discussion among netizens.
Some netizens left a message in the comment area: "Zheng Wei is right, this Chinese women's basketball team has indeed not reached the level of a real strong team." Although the players tried their best, there was still a gap between the overall strength and the top international teams. Another netizen also agreed: "I don't think there's anything surprising about this loss, when you watch the game, you can obviously feel that we are slightly inferior in speed and technique." ”
Another netizen mentioned: "I have always felt that the current state of our women's basketball team is really disappointing, although the players are working hard, they feel that the training and tactical level are not high enough, and the coaching staff also needs to seriously reflect on it." Then someone replied: "yes, look at the performance of this game, the defense is full of holes, the offense is also lacking in creativity, and it feels like something went wrong in every part of the game." ”
Some netizens joked: "When watching the game, it feels like a drama of 'the other party kills all sides, and our side is embattled'." The game fell behind at the beginning, and it was difficult to overtake later, and I really sighed that our women's basketball team still needs to work hard. Another netizen said with a little sarcasm: "It's better to learn some lessons from the head coach's sentence 'we are not a strong team yet', give the players a clear understanding, and truly recognize the gap, so that it is possible to improve." ”
Overall, the loss of the Chinese women's basketball team in the first game was not meaningless, it sounded the alarm bell for the team, and also provided valuable experience for future games. I hope that in the next games, the team can adjust its form, play at the level it should be, and lay a solid foundation for the Olympic road.
