Heroes come out of teenagers! The Chinese men s basketball team has exceeded the task. The bleeding in the final is more important than the winner

On August 17, the Chinese men's basketball team has now returned to the Asian Cup final after 10 years, and will challenge the Australian men's basketball team, which has already won 17 wins and 0 losses in the Asian Cup. Can the Chinese men's basketball team end their opponent's 17 consecutive victories and prevent their opponent from completing three consecutive championships? It is naturally a good thing if the Chinese men's basketball team can "explode" to defeat the Australian men's basketball team, which has super strength, win the championship, but if they lose and win the runner-up, they will still successfully complete the task. In the final, they only hope that they can use their lives to play the bloody nature of their due. The process is already more important than the victory or defeat.

When there are 9 players in the Chinese men's basketball team this year, this is the first time that it has played in the Asian Cup, only Hu Jinqiu (2017), Zhao Rui (2022) and Hu Mingxuan (2022).

When the Chinese men's basketball team lacks most of the main lineup and the remaining lineup will go on the battle, Yang Hansen "takes leave" to participate in the Trail Blazers' short training camp will be approved, and Zhou Qi, Cui Yongxi, Zhang Zhenlin, Zeng Fanbo, Zhao Jiwei, Sun Minghui and other main players have different degrees of injury problems, and can only use the remaining lineup to compete in this Asian Cup.

The Chinese men's basketball team failed at home in the 2019 Men's Basketball World Cup to miss the Tokyo Olympics in 2020 (actually held in 2021), and then again in the 2023 Men's Basketball World Cup, and the second team of the Philippines's second team reversed 20 points in the semi-finals of the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games and missed the title defense, and missed the 2024 Paris Olympics...

The Chinese men's basketball team was in a low point for a long time, which made the outside world generally "resentment" about the Chinese men's basketball team, and correspondingly lowered the general expectations for this year's Asian Cup. Before the Asian Cup started, the outside world generally believed that it was enough to reach the semi-finals. Captain Zhao Rui also had the goal of being interviewed by CCTV before the Asian Cup.

Zhao Rui clearly stated in an interview that the Asian Cup goal: "Get cards and stand on the podium, there is no other goal. My goal, including the goal of the whole team, is to stand on the podium, which is what our Chinese men's basketball team needs most at present."

So far this Asian Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team has played in the "remnants" and has won five consecutive victories. After 10 years, it has returned to the Asian Cup final. From the group opening game, narrowly defeated the host Saudi men's basketball team 93-88, to defeating the Korean men's basketball team 79-71 in the quarterfinals, and then to the domineering elimination of the "divorce" New Zealand men's basketball team 98-74 in the semi-finals. In fact, the continuous transformation and progress of the Chinese men's basketball team is already surprising enough.

In view of the prospect of challenging the defending champion of the Australian Men's Basketball Team in the Asian Cup final, all fans who support the Chinese Men's Basketball Team naturally hope to win the championship, and they also look forward to creating a "upset" miracle in the final and competing for the 17th championship in the team's history tournament.

It is only before the finals start, it is necessary to clarify the strength gap between the Chinese men's basketball team and the Australian men's basketball team. Although no active NBA player in the Australian men's basketball team participated in the competition, they have won 145 points in five games and beat the Iranian men's basketball team for 44 points in the semi-finals.

Australian men's basketball team has won 17 wins and 0 losses after joining the Asian Cup. They have won the championship in the past two competitions. They are targeting 18 consecutive victories in this Asian Cup and strive for three consecutive championships. It is unknown whether the Chinese men's basketball team can defeat the Australian men's basketball team "up" but at least the Chinese men's basketball team advances to the final to ensure that they can win at least the runner-up, which is already the mission of this Asian Cup ahead of schedule.

As the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team Guo Shiqiang said: "We have many experienced players who are unable to participate in this Asian Cup due to injuries, but the most important thing is that we show that we always play teamwork, and show our fighting spirit and selfless style on the court. We are a young team, with 9 players playing international competitions for the first time, but there is an old saying in China that heroes have been young since ancient times. In this case, I don't want our players to think that we are just young, but want us to be full of energy. We should welcome all challenges and strive to win."

As for whether the Chinese men's basketball team can win the championship in the final, the result is still important, but what is more important may be the process. The Chinese men's basketball team coached by Guo Shiqiang makes people see the long-lost blood, the burning fighting spirit, and the transformation and progress... It is enough. I hope that they can continue their previous performance in the finals and continue to bring us more surprises and touches.
