What Yao Ming said is all on his own, do you understand?

The women's basketball group stage of the Paris Olympics was all played, and the Chinese women's basketball team finally ranked third in the group, but because of the difference in net points, it was the third group with the worst record, missing the quarterfinals, and ending this Olympic journey.


The Chinese women's basketball team played the most like itself in the last game of the group stage, beating Puerto Rico by 22 points. But the 22-point margin is already one of the few we have won against Puerto Rico. Last time in Tokyo, we won Puerto Rico by 42 points.



A 1-2 record in the group stage, plus an earlier finish. That meant we had to look at the faces of other people if we wanted to get to the quarter-finals, and the situation was kind to us.


As long as Belgium wins Japan by 27 points, we will qualify; As long as Canada wins against Nigeria, we will qualify; In the last case, as long as France wins against Australia, we can also qualify.



But Japan lost "just right" to Belgium by 27 points yesterday; Canada, which is not as strong as Nigeria, also loses temperlessly; France vs. Australia, which ended in the early morning, ended with Australia suppressing France in the whole game. France as the host could not not fight, so many home spectators watched, but there was no way, Australia is also facing the pressure of qualifying, and the battle is against the water.


I don't want to say too much about Japan's game yesterday, but we all know if it was deliberately done. Japan, as the runner-up of the last Olympic Games, lost all three games in this competition, losing an average of 20+ per game, and it was they who lost face.



This schedule is also extremely unreasonable, the first to finish is to have an obvious disadvantage, and the later start only needs to stare at the net score to play. This also gives the opponent room to operate. It would certainly be fairest if the final round was played at the same time, although it is still questionable whether France can afford to hold so many matches at the same time.


In the first group stage against Spain, Li Yueru 31+15, the Chinese women's basketball team lost to its own 23 mistakes and two stupid fouls. In the second group game, Li Yueru, who was very powerful in the last game, only had 3 shots in the whole game, and we defeated Serbia.



When there was no way out, we found the familiar defensive intensity, found the accuracy of the outside, and Li Meng's offensive touch was also recovered, so that we would not also lose all three games to end the group stage.


Previously, the Chinese women's basketball team had participated in a total of 9 Olympic Games, of which 6 successfully reached the quarterfinals and 2 reached the semifinals. This year's 10th edition, stopped in the group stage. Who can blame it? No one can blame it, but only blame yourself for not being angry.



Five years ago, we won against Korea in the men's basketball World Cup qualifying match, and the atmosphere in the locker room finally eased up a bit after the game. When Fang Shuo was complaining about the referee, Yao Ming said three times in a row: "It's all on yourself, it's all on yourself, it's all on yourself." โ€



At that time, we were still at home in the World Cup, and Yao Ming still said that we could only rely on ourselves, of course, after the game, it seemed that we did not have any home advantage at all. When you go to Paris to compete, you have to accept these "unfairness" from the outside world. If we make one less mistake and one less foul against Spain, why do we need to look at other people's faces?


Five years later, Yao Ming is still with the team, still worried on the sidelines. Against Spain, he shouted no foul before the final attack in regulation time, and then Yang Liwei delivered that unforgettable 3+1. From the World Cup five years ago to the Olympics five years later, Yao Ming is powerless.



In fact, I am not optimistic about the women's basketball team's Olympic journey, the extremely poor record in the warm-up game, the ups and downs of the players' physical condition, and the lack of tacit understanding due to the lack of tacit understanding due to the lack of cooperation for a long time. It's just that this sense of disparity that gives people hope and is quickly disappointed is still quite uncomfortable.



Li Yueru's strong return this time proves that practice is useful, and if we want to bottom out, we still have to practice. Whether at home or abroad, we should never rest on our laurels, let alone our status quo.
