China won the defending champion Japan 73-71 on the 2nd women’s basketball, and they returned to the top of Asia after 12 years. According to the analysis of relevant people, in fact, China Women’s Basketball encountered a lot of difficulties before this cup. For example, Li Meng and Han Xu, the two WNBA players, returned to the team late and ran in with their teammates, at that time, it might be a concern from the outside world. But in fact, from the perspective of the Asian Cup process, after Li Meng and Han Xu returned to the team, the cooperation with their teammates was almost seamless. China’s women’s basketball has always been a team that relies on overall playing, and the degree of tacit understanding between them is very important. However, Li Meng, Han Xu, Wang Siyu and Gao Song, the main players of the Asian Cup, who played together in WCBA in Sichuan Yuanda Meile club during the 2022-23 season, after they come to the national team, they can quickly produce chemical reactions and produce greater synergy, thus bringing more help to China’s women’s basketball.

Fans who are familiar with WCBA league must know that Sichuan Yuanda Meile and Inner Mongolia Women’s Basketball gathered most of China’s women’s basketball national players, and they are also the two strongest teams of WCBA this season. In this year’s finals, Sichuan Yuanda Meile women’s basketball, including Li Meng, Han Xu, Wang Siyu and Gao Song, defeated the defending champion Inner Mongolia Women’s Basketball, thus achieving success. Han Xu won the most valuable player in the finals. However, Li Meng, Han Xu, Wang Siyu and Gao Song further increased the degree of tacit cooperation in this process, and the chemical reaction between them was very unusual. In the process of coming to the national team to fight for the Asian Cup, Zheng Wei, the coach of China women’s basketball, also put these former players together on the court many times in the game, which is exactly the degree of tacit understanding between them. In the end, the effect of these players on the court really reached the expectations of the team.

In fact, since Sichuan Yuanda Group, a private enterprise, took over Sichuan women’s basketball in 2019, they immediately established Sichuan Yuanda Meile women’s basketball and Sichuan Yuanda Meile basketball club. Zhang Yuanping, chairman of Sichuan Yuanda Group, has invested a lot in women’s basketball. In recent years, the team has successively introduced new and old Chinese players such as Shao Ting, Li Meng, Han Xu, Sun Mengran and Gao Song, Xiao Tong, Fang Jorya, local players such as Qiluo and Tang chenmeng also grew rapidly, becoming a strong team in the domestic women’s basketball court that cannot be ignored. And such high investment also ushered in high returns. The championship results of the 2022-23 season are the best illustration. And this team building mode also “helps” the national team to continue training to a large extent. This is also an important reason why China has made great achievements in women’s basketball these years.
