A few days ago, China's men's basketball team defeated Iran and Bahrain in the living preliminaries, locking the place for the 2023 men's basketball World Cup in advance. Although the two matches had ups and downs, the Chinese men's basketball team members dared to play and fight. Relying on the excellent performance of Wang Zhelin and others, they won the game without danger and won the World Cup quota, completing the set goal of the Chinese men's basketball team.

It can be said that the result of this Chinese men's basketball match is satisfactory. Due to the fact that the window period of the World Preliminaries is very close to the first stage of the league, the physical condition of the team members is in a period of exhaustion, and many people are injured. Aaron Guo, Zhao Jiwei and others also fell out of the big list, and the Chinese men's basketball team suffered from the dilemma of incomplete lineup. In the face of so many difficulties, the Chinese men's basketball team played with vigor and vitality. Even though the team's performance in some games failed to satisfy the outside world, the efforts of the whole team are worth affirming. In the game against Iran, Wu Qian cracked his eyebrow bone and hit the winning three points with a hemostatic sticker. It is reported that Wu Qian went to the local hospital for six stitches after the game, and this spirit of selflessness for victory moved us.

At present, Chinese basketball is still at the top level in Asia, but the situation of Chinese men's basketball is not optimistic. Although Iran is in a turbulent period of youth shortage and the transition between old and new, the Philippines, Japan and South Korea are on the rise, especially many Japanese players playing in the American professional basketball league, which brings a lot of pressure to the Chinese men's basketball team. On the other hand, the men's basketball team also has the problem of the alternation between the old and the new. Our advantage in the internal line has declined. Although the external line has shown a trend of multipoint blooming, the problem of unstable scoring points in the external line has not been solved, making the team's state fluctuate. Although the World Preliminaries have completed the task, the existing problems need to be solved and improved urgently.

The achievements belong to the past, and there are still many ways to go in the future of the Chinese men's basketball team. It is reported that the Chinese Basketball Association announced on November 16 that the position of head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team will be held by Alexander Jorjevic, a Serbian coach who once led the team to the runner up of the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. Less than two years before the opening of the Paris Olympic Games, this decision is extremely important for the Chinese men's basketball team.
