In the early morning of July 16, the Chinese men's basketball team ushered in their first warm-up match this summer. Facing the European powerhouse Dutch team, the Chinese team was in good shape. Under the leadership of Hu Mingxuan, Yu Jiahao and others, the Chinese team finally defeated their opponent 84-76 and successfully got a good start. Although the main players such as Zhou Qi, Yang Hansen and Zeng Fanbo were absent, the Chinese team still withstood the pressure. In this game, the men's basketball team's internal and external lines were blooming in full swing. Yu Jiahao, Hu Mingxuan, Wang Junjie and others all handed in good data, and Yu Jiahao and Wang Junjie were even more eye-catching. Especially Wang Junjie, he has become the biggest gain for the men's basketball team.

As we all know, the only task of the Chinese men's basketball team this summer is the Asian Cup held next month. As the overlord of Asian basketball, since winning the Asian Championships in 2015, the Chinese team has not won the Asian Cup championship for ten years. In recent years, as the older generation of players such as Yi Jianlian faded out of the national team, the Chinese team has been deteriorating. After suffering losses in the Asian Cup, Asian Games and World Cup, the Chinese team also ended the contract with Shuai Qiao in advance. The famous local coach Guo Shiqiang took office and took over the Chinese men's basketball coach again.

After nearly two months of secret training, the Chinese men's basketball team also made its debut in the warm-up match. Facing the European powerhouse Dutch team, the Chinese team is in pretty good shape. After the first quarter, the Chinese team quickly entered the game state, scoring 22 points in a single quarter, ending the first quarter with a 22-17 lead. After entering the second quarter, the two teams fell into a tug-of-war, and the Chinese team's offense was still stable, scoring 20 points in a single quarter, while the Netherlands was not willing to be outdone and contributed 20 points in a single quarter. At the end of the first half, the Chinese team ended with a 5-point lead.

After the change of sides, the Chinese team continued the hot feeling of the first half, and the offense and defense still suppressed the opponent. In the entire third quarter, the Chinese team scored another 20 points in a single quarter, and the offense and defense ends played in high-efficiency state, while the Dutch team felt cold, with only 12 points in a single quarter. In the entire third quarter, the Chinese team won 8 points in a single quarter. At the end of the first three quarters, the Chinese team already had a 13-point lead. In the last quarter, the Dutch team launched a full-scale counterattack. They scored a high score of 27 points in a single quarter. Fortunately, the Chinese team also withstood the pressure and refused to be reversed by their opponents. In the end, the Chinese team defeated their opponent 84-76 and successfully got a good start.

In this game, the Chinese team has blossomed in the internal and external lines. Yu Jiahao scored 16 points alone, becoming the pillar of the Chinese team's inside line. Without Zhou Qi and Yang Hansen, he became the well-deserved thigh of the men's basketball team's inside line. In the forward position, Wang Junjie, who is "Xiao Zhang Zhenlin", scored 13 points, becoming the best among the new generation of Chinese players. On the back line, Hu Mingxuan scored 13 points alone, and Liao Sanning also scored 9 points. These two people are in very good condition. Overall, the performance of the Chinese team in this game is quite remarkable.

However, as the main point guard of the men's basketball team, Zhao Rui's performance in this game is indeed a bit worrying. Zhao Rui's touch was very average throughout the game, and only scored 3 points in the game. Moreover, Zhao Rui did not integrate with the team at all in the game. Although Zhao Rui is better than Hu Mingxuan, Gao Shiyan and Liao Sanning in terms of personal talent, Zhao Rui is the worst performer among the defenders in this battle. Of course, this is just the first show between Zhao Rui and the men's basketball team. I believe that in the next game, Zhao Rui will be able to regain his form and return to the king.
