No matter how difficult it is, it’s still possible to win one game, right...
Those who guess correctly will receive a reward of 15 gold coins; feel free to make your guesses
Just show the spirit of my Greater China – we can fight at most one battle; zero wins are expected
Are 15 gold coins wealth points or HaiChuan coins?
I guess the men’s basketball team will win one game; if there’s a surprise, they might win two

The schedule for China’s group matches in the Olympics (all times are in Beijing time): On August 7 at 6 a.m., China vs. the United States. Needless to say, China has no chance of winning; a victory would only be possible if they lost by less than 50 points. At 9:30 on August 9th, China faced France; in this tournament, five NBA players from Chinese teams participated – Tony Parker (Spurs), Nicolas Batum (Hornets), Boris Diaw (Jazz), Rudy Gobert (Jazz), and Löwenthal (Nuggets). As a result, there was no chance for the Chinese men’s basketball team to compete. At 9:30 on August 11th, China will face Venezuela in a match where victory is the only possible outcome. However, Venezuela performed very well in its warm-up games against the United States. Although Venezuela doesn’t have any star players, its team coordination is excellent. I really hope the Chinese men’s basketball team will win, but it’s likely just a wish – it’s going to be very difficult. At 1:15 on August 13, China vs Australia – several NBA stars will take part: Andrew Bogut (Mavericks), Patty Mills (Spurs), Matthew Dellavedova (Bucks), Aaron Barnes (Pistons), Joe Ingles (Jazz). There is a significant gap in skill at the guard position, and Andrew Bogut, Patty Mills, and Matthew Dellavedova have all appeared in the finals in recent years; therefore, this men’s basketball match has little chance of success. At 9:30 on August 15, China vs Serbia. Serbia has a strong team structure, and with Nikola Jokić (Nuggets) and Miloš Teodosić as leaders, it is a team in the group that can compete with the United States; therefore, the Chinese men’s basketball team has no chance. In summary, if the men’s basketball team performs well, it may be able to defeat Venezuela; otherwise, there is no chance of winning in the other matches. Moreover, given the schedule, the opponents are not likely to go easy on them.
Unable to win even a single match, they can only settle for duck eggs; without Yao Ming, the men’s basketball team can only show off its strength in Asia, and Yi Jianlian still has a long way to go in terms of development.
