*Shakes head* If you asked me in 2000 whether I thought China's national basketball team or China's national soccer team would be the first to be considered "good" or "competent", I would've said soccer. Now, it seems China's soccer team is unlikely to become good before the heat death of the universe.This team looks a lot better than recent teams. Even with Yao Ming back then, they had problems beating Australia and New Zealand consistently. Wang Junjie has been playing in the NCAA. They need more of this type of player with NCAA experience. A couple of their best Chinese players are not even on this team for various reasons. So this current batch of players looks promising.
Soccer is the hardest to get a team to be good at. You need 11 good players which is more than most sports. And they need to work well. And in the most played sport.*Shakes head* If you asked me in 2000 whether I thought China's national basketball team or China's national soccer team would be the first to be considered "good" or "competent", I would've said soccer.

There is a Japanese college in this league has 6 blacks in the teamTheres an ongoing inaugural Asian University Basketball League 2025 in Hangzhou.
Then if they win, we should raise them a different flag than the Japanese one. Either do a genetic test on thier doping control blood samples and find out where in Africa they are from or raise the Black Panther/Wakandan flag whenever they win. Bet you they wouldn't even be offended; they'd start crossing their arms over their chests for the Wakandan salute! LOLThere is a Japanese college in this league has 6 blacks in the team
Honestly what's the point of all these "international" competitions if every country is going to recruit the same few people that's clearly not representative of their own countries.There is a Japanese college in this league has 6 blacks in the team

It's why people aren't interested in seeing table tennis when a lot of times it's just China vs some other Chinese. Sports is all becoming like that.
