On the 6th, China ended its two-week training in Qingdao men’s basketball and set off for overseas training and warm-up matches in Slovenia. China men’s basketball hopes to achieve the purpose of inspecting players, adjusting their status and running-in teams through these warm-up matches.

According to the plan, China will first go to Slovenia men’s basketball to have a warm-up match with Croatia, Egypt, Italy, Cape Verde and Slovenia, then go to Germany to participate in Super Cup, and return to China to continue to participate in the warm-up match in mid-August, make the final preparations for the World Cup.

Before that, China’s men’s basketball coach Joe Evich said: “We will play against many strong teams in this warm-up match, such as Slovenia men’s basketball, Germany men’s basketball, Italy men’s basketball. These competitions help us adapt to the intensity of the competition and prepare for the competition.”

For China’s men’s basketball, these warm-up matches are of great value. First, coach Joe needs to examine the status of new players and whether they can play their own roles in the system. Players such as Fang Shuo, Sun Minghui, du runwang and Fu Hao all entered the training lineup of Joe Shuai for the first time. Whether they can quickly integrate into Joe Shuai’s system depends on their performance in the warm-up match.

Second, China’s men’s basketball needs to further run into the lineup. In the past two weeks of training in Qingdao, more drills were conducted in terms of techniques and tactics. Therefore, China’s men’s basketball will need to establish better chemical reactions through high-quality warm-up matches. Third, Chinese men’s basketball need to let Zhou Qi find a better sense of competition. Qi Zhou has not played for a long time, and his game status and feeling are declining. However, the importance of Zhou Qi to China’s men’s basketball is self-evident, so Zhou Qi needs these warm-up matches to find the feeling of competition.
