On the evening of July 29, the Chinese Men's Basketball Team will continue its warm-up match in Nanjing, and the team will once again play against the Bosnia and Herzegovina Men's Basketball Team. On the 27th, the team defeated the opponent 90:70. During the game, the team hit 12 three-pointers, which became the key to winning. In the fight again, in addition to maintaining the feel of the outside line, the problems exposed in the first game also need to be compensated as soon as possible.

For the first match, in terms of physical confrontation intensity and tactical execution, the Bosnia and Herzegovina men's basketball team, which played with most of the main players, formed significant oppression on the Chinese men's basketball team. In the first half of the game, the Chinese men's basketball team only completed 8 assists, but made as many as 11 mistakes. Especially in the second quarter, the offensive end is often powered off, allowing the opponent to overtake 4 points in a single quarter. After the game, coach Guo Shiqiang admitted that the team did have some fluctuations in the second quarter, "The team had some problems in the second quarter, and their concentration was a bit reduced." On the offensive end, the Chinese men's basketball team's intention to pass the ball was too obvious and inadequate, and problems such as insufficient response after being attacked were exposed. The defense was slow to return to defense and was continuously beaten by the opponent to make a quick counterattack; in positional battles, a fatal loophole occurred after the opponent's large-scale transmission of the ball, and he was scored by the above basket several times.

With Yang Hansen, Zhou Qi, and Zeng Fanbo absent from the warm-up match and even the Asian Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team is indeed facing considerable pressure in lineup matching, especially in the rotation of insiders. Judging from the warm-up match, Hu Jinqiu has become the center forward that the Chinese men's basketball team can rely most on, and whether he is present or not has a significant impact on the team. In the first match between Bosnia and Herzegovina, Hu Jinqiu scored 12 points in 19 minutes. After the first match, the head coach of the Bosnia and Herzegovina men's basketball team revealed that in the next match, their No. 17 player Moussa will play. He is the No. 3 scorer of the Bosnia and Herzegovina men's basketball team in the European preliminaries and has also won the La Liga MVP.

This means that after the time difference adjustment and new players arrive at the team, the Chinese men's basketball team will be a stronger opponent. Under continuous high-intensity physical confrontation, whether young Chinese men's basketball men can still achieve the same shooting level as in the first game will become the key to determining the direction of the game.
