China's team is awful. They probably won't do anything until they give in and let Stephon Marbury be the national team coach. And Yao gets involved in the training regimen. As it is, they just prioritize slow plodding 6'10" guys who can't even get physical. Those types are aight in the international game but you need a diversity of players to be successful. Their PG for a while was Sun Yue, who was a slow plodding 6'9" guy who actually rode the pine for one of the Kobe/Pau championship teams.

Anyway, the China bracket is weak af. Poland, Venezuela, Ivory Coast. They might be able to advance. But I wouldn't bet on it! 😂
