"Qualifications are the first, there is no refutation of this, but ability, I can't see it. When Yi Jianlian first entered the NBA, he was only the sixth pick in the first round, Chen Feng is the eye of the list, why people chose Chen Feng as the leader of the NBA, it is because of their outstanding strength. ”
"I don't agree with that. Chen Feng's ability is very outstanding, but he is still young, and I don't believe that he can be compared with Yi Jian now. ”
"Yes, I think so too. Seeing that the warm-up game of the men's basketball team in front of him was not easy to concise, it was the undisputed core, and Chen Feng was just a bench player. ”
"Who is Chen Feng is the bench player, you stand up, I promise not to beat you! The national team is hiding its strength, do you understand?"

On September 22, 2015, the opening ceremony of the Asian Championships was held at Huaya Hotel.
A total of 16 teams participated in this Asian Championships, namely China, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, India, the Philippines, Palestine, Kuwait, Huaxia Xiangjiang, South Korea, Jordan, Singapore, Chinese Taipei, Lebanon, Qatar and Kazakhstan.
Starting on 23 September, the 16 teams will compete in 64 matches for the title, which will go straight to Rio 2016.
At the opening ceremony, the flag-bearers of the 16 teams, led by the hostess, entered the venue holding the national flags of their respective countries.
First the host Huaxia, then Malaysia, Lebanon, South Korea, Singapore......
When the flag-bearers of the sixteen teams all entered, and the players of each team also entered the hotel, a group of players of the Chinese men's basketball team sat around a table, talking to each other, laughing constantly.
On the stage, the Secretary General of the Asian Basketball Confederation, Hagaop, encouraged the participating teams at the opening ceremony, saying: "Each team will bring different highlights to this competition, and you will see the best performance of the Asian basketball teams in the next games!"
The applause thundered throughout the hall.
Next, the organizing committee announced the group list of this Asian Championships and the schedule of the competition.
The 16 teams are divided into four groups: A, B, C, and D, with four teams in each group, and the specific groupings are - Group A: Iran, Japan, Malaysia, and India.
Group B: Philippines, Palestine, Kuwait, Huaxia Xiangjiang.
Group C: South Korea, Jordan, Huaxia, Singapore.
Group D: Chinese Taipei, Lebanon, Qatar, Kazakhstan.
The schedule of this Asian Championship is divided into three stages, the first is the group round-robin, each group of four teams will take a round-robin competition, ranked by points, and the top three in each group will advance to the second stage.
The second stage, the group single round-robin, can be called the semi-final.
At this stage, the top three teams from the previous four groups A, B, C, and D will be mixed together to form two groups, E and F.
Group E: A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3.
Group F: C1, C2, C3, D1, D2, D3.
At this stage, the teams that have already played each other in the group stage will no longer meet each other in the semi-finals, but will bring the results of each other's matches into the rankings of the semi-final stage. The top 4 teams in each group in the semi-final stage will qualify and the top eight teams will enter the knockout round.
The knockout stage, which is the third stage, has a total of eight teams, represented by E1, E2, E3, E4, F1, F2, F3, and F4.
These eight teams adopt cross-elimination, that is, e1vsf4, e3vsf2, f1vse4, f3vse2, and finally decide the top four.
The final four will be played again to determine the last two teams for the championship.
The two teams eliminated in the semi-finals will also play another match, qualifying, and the winner will finish third.
This is the schedule of the entire Asian Championships, from the group stage, to the semi-finals, to the knockout round, a total of three rounds, but the time is only ten days, and there will be at least six matches a day.
For those teams who can make it to the third stage, with at least six games in ten days, back-to-back at any time, their physical strength is a concern for the players. And for the team, it will also be a test.
