The dilemma and future of the Chinese women s basketball team: From serious mistakes in choosing coaches to rebuilding and returning to the top of the world

1. Select coach

The current coach of the women's basketball team, Gong Luming, is not a particularly suitable candidate. First of all, the age and resume are inappropriate, which is the biggest inappropriate. Gong Luming took over the women's basketball team at the age of 70. He has been away from the front line of coaching for many years. Secondly, the concept caused by age is inappropriate and is indeed outdated. It is impossible to bring new ideas and ideas to the women's basketball team. The guidance and international alignment are definitely weaker.

2. Goal

The Olympic goal of 2028 should be positioned to win the cards! This goal is not very high. After all, in recent years, the women's basketball team's Olympic record and World Cup record are both world-class teams, and the world ranking is also a stable top 10. With Zhang Ziyu joining, the goal of winning cards is unchangeable.

3. The selection and replacement of personnel is a big topic! Obviously, Li Meng and Zhang Ziyu are topics that cannot be avoided. Let’s talk about Li Meng first. Li Meng may not be able to persevere until 2028, but in terms of the current reserve of the women’s basketball team in the No. 3 position and the concept of using old to lead newness, Li Meng should still play the role; let’s talk about Zhang Ziyu, leading Zhang Ziyu must have new ideas, new horizons, and new usages. Any old and outdated way may damage Zhang Ziyu’s growth! From this perspective, Gong Luming's handling was also quite average.

4. Tactics

For women's basketball team, tactical concepts and styles of play are actually not a big problem. It is OK to hit fast or high. The biggest problem at present is that the ideas and implementation of tactical implementation lack effective design and operational steps. More time to focus on basic skills and physical training, the role of the Chinese women's basketball team returning to the top 3 from around the world's 10th place is limited!

5. Development

First, look at key players. Players like Zhang Ziyu and Han Xu still have to go out. If you can go to the WNBA, you still have to go to the WNBA;

Second, look at young players. New players like Tian Yuanyuan still have to grow into stars in the league first, and then talk about shining and radiating in the national team;

Third, look at team management, and you still have to work hard on basketball ideas, concepts, and tactics.

Summary

Guo Shiqiang's core to the success of the Men's Basketball Team's Asian Cup is still a change in tactical play, which has brought about rapid progress in the transformation of the Men's Basketball Team from positional warfare to speed warfare. This is actually worth learning from by the women's basketball team.
