Su Qun: The biggest gain of the Asian Cup is to rekindle hope for the World Cup and Olympics

. Because of this, Hu Mingxuan, who had no points against South Korea, continued to be reused, which led to him scoring 26 points in the final and persevering the game until the end. Although it is a pity that it is only 1 point away, it allows the Chinese men's basketball team to more clearly recognize the existing shortcomings. For example, due to physical conditions, our rebounds averaged 39.2 in the Asian Cup, ranking only 10th, nearly 10 fewer than the Australian team. But our average frontcourt rebounds are 12.5, and we can rank sixth again, which means they are indeed fighting. Facing joint defense, the Chinese team lacks sufficient breakthrough ability and experience, so they often fall into trouble. Liao Sanning, the only one who could make a layup, shined against New Zealand, and the taller Australian team blocked his layup. Fortunately, there are too many people missing this time, and we still have many opportunities to improve. For example, on the outside, it is very likely to add a naturalized player, which can greatly improve our ability to attack and make the ball transfer efficiency higher. But this time, I hope to find naturalized players no longer just to find relatives of blood, it’s best to be relatives, and it doesn’t matter if they are relatives. Because this is basketball, he came to help us play according to the rules of the FIBA. Our injured forward will come back and there will be more room for employment. This time, Wang Junjie returned from overseas at the age of 20, showing his solid shooting skills, especially his independence, which made the Chinese team's scoring methods much richer. Don’t forget that there is another Yang Hansen who is preparing to start his further study in the NBA. Therefore, the biggest gain of this Asian Cup is that we have rekindled our hope for the 2027 World Cup and the 2028 Olympics.
