To clarify what we should expect from Li Kael, let’s first look at what China’s men’s basketball lacks most.
INSIDE: The No. 5 level of China’s men’s basketball is at the second-class gate of the world. The inside combination of Zhou Qi + Wang Zhilin + Hu Jinqiu is the basis for men’s basketball to be qualified to fight with people in the FIBA world. The space type 4 with the most lack of comprehensive quality and stable projection ability.
Front line: China has been weak for a long time in men’s basketball. After Ding Yan Yuhang and aludu salad wood faded out due to injury, they were even more stretched. Asian Games were not necessarily stretched, the problem needs to be solved by three defenders in the long run. The most important thing is to be able to handle the ball and connect the inner and outer line front line.
Zhang Zhenlin has performed well in the warm-up match recently. You can look forward to it.
Rear Guard line: Men’s Basketball of China’s defenders are always the most scolded, but in fact, in most cases, they perform better than the front line (but not much), and even occasionally some similar to Wu Qian playing Canada, hu Mingxuan played such a bright spot as unsuccessful race.
We do not lack qualified ball handlers and porters, but in world-class competitions, few people can give consideration to defense, organization and individual attack. In addition, the support provided by the front line is not enough, resulting in insufficient ability to digest ball rights, high-end Bureau can only take care of one thing and lose another.
Therefore, in the rear guard line, we most lack the master key that can devour a large number of balls and pick up the pot to dismantle bombs.
What can Li Kael satisfy? The answer is obvious……
Theoretically, naturalizing players is a means to improve the team’s strength, so most countries pursue immediate solutions. Therefore, it is often the fastest way to make a cut-down American ball holding core-this is also the choice of many European teams: whether it is Russia’s JR-Holden in 2007, in 2011, Bo-macaleb in Macedonia was the most typical case.
The killing of Holden in 2007 won the Russian team’s European Championship.
In 2011, Bo-macaleb led Macedonia into the final four of the European Championship.
Therefore, from this perspective, people think that the demand of China’s men’s basketball for domestication to supplement combat power may be guard> front line> Inside Line.
It is not difficult for us to understand the worries of many people about Li Kele-first, he is not a bottom-breaking small guard. In NBA, Li Kele’s positioning is more like a super role player of type all purpose balm, if we expect a master key in the FIBA competition, Li Kele may not be more appropriate than Clarkson in the Philippines next door.
But is the speed road that most people take must be suitable for Chinese basketball?
For China’s men’s basketball, finding the ultimate mercenary has never been our ultimate goal. There are more defenders on the market who can cut points, and CBA Foreign aid has caught a lot. It’s really hard to pull it to the FIBA field. Without good support, how can you ensure that your “small foreign aid” will definitely beat the “small foreign aid” of the other side when the fire is against the bang “?
From this perspective, apart from the Chinese lineage and cultural identity that basketball Union himself pays most attention to, the basketball style is also a manifestation of the Basketball Association’s right medicine for the national team.
Our basketball system does have defects, but it is not hopeless. Our players have their own abilities, blindly introduce cheating device beyond the system, and regard all others as workers around him, this is not a good thing for the development of men’s basketball.
And this is exactly the characteristic of Li Kael at the national team level: Li Kael’s core competitiveness in NBA is his ability to organize and control the ball as a high-front line, which is not even proved by data, anyway, looking through the history of men’s basketball, you can’t find one better than him in this field-the one closest to him may go back to Sun Yue who could play NBA more than ten years ago.
Of course, if you compete with NBA data, Sun Yue and Li Kele have more than one level difference.
Therefore, judging from the positioning of the national team, the current Li Kael is actually the optimal solution on China’s men’s basketball attack line.
Yes, we don’t have to expect a patch to plug all the vulnerabilities, but making the best use of everything is the most efficient reinforcement. It is what men’s basketball need to let Li Kael play with his most accustomed rhythm.
In China men’s basketball, we don’t have to expect Li Kele to play a role that he is unfamiliar with and uncomfortable, more often, he should be the fulcrum of the men’s basketball tactical system-you should know that basketball is not only a one-to-one or one-to-one scoring method in positional warfare, which enriches tactical play and makes teammates better, it is also a manifestation of the ace player’s help to the team.
What’s more, our goal is not to eat a fat man in one breath and immediately punch America and kick France (now because a large number of players in Serbia are absent, there are even people on the internet who are counting on defeating their opponents…), Now our most realistic goal is to beat our opponents from Africa and America stably (which is also the goal for a long time in men’s basketball), gain the highest ranking in Asia and win the Olympic qualification.
If this goal was not enough before Li Kele joined, the mentality was “no matter how hard he played, he couldn’t watch the second stage of qualifying”, then now after Li Kele joined, we have been able to set our goal to get the Olympic qualification directly after the group match.
It should be noted that Li Kael will soon be 30 years old, so apart from his achievements, his most important role is to help men’s basketball get through the difficulties, then stimulate the growth of young people (especially the young front line groups in the future men’s basketball, such as Zhang Zhenlin, Zeng fanbo and Cui Yongxi-they are the future of China men’s basketball), help the development of Chinese basketball enter a positive cycle-this is what we want to see most.
In the world of FIBA with bullets, Li Kael was not the cheating device for people to block and kill Buddha. His existence was to replace the pistol dagger in the handle of Chinese men’s basketball with a micro-punch, put on a bulletproof vest helmet and a sack of grenades.
This is enough for China’s men’s basketball.
