In the U17 national final, Shandong women's basketball team won the runner-up by 33 points, which was incomprehensible to netizens. Insiders： the test standard is a bit ＂dogmatic＂.

　　At the recently concluded 2023 World Middle School Football Championship, the women's football team from Licheng No.2 Middle School in Jinan, which represented China, won the women's team championship with a total victory of seven games, reaching the top of the world. In the top 16 women's team competition of the National U17 Youth Basketball League in 2023, which ended on August 2nd, Shandong U17 women's basketball team also won seven games, and finally beat Zhejiang team 96:63. However, Shandong U17 women's basketball team only won the runner-up in this competition. What on earth is going on?

　　The "comprehensive ranking" ranking caused controversy.

　　It is understood that the top 16 women's team competitions in the national U17 Youth Basketball League are divided into two stages: group stage and elimination stage. The 16 teams in the group stage are divided into four groups for single round robin, and the Shandong U17 women's basketball team is divided into group B with Fujian team, Shijiazhuang No.2 Middle School and Shaanxi team, and all three games win by big scores. After entering the elimination stage of the cross match, Shandong U17 women's basketball team beat Liaoning Experimental Team 95: 62 in the 16-to-8 competition, Sichuan Team at 111: 77 in the quarter-final, Hunan Team at 86: 69 in the semi-final and Zhejiang Team at 96: 63 in the final, and won the first place in the competition. In the end, the overall ranking of Shandong U17 women's basketball team was the second, head coach Luan Mingjie won the best coach award, and athlete Zhang Ziyu won the most valuable player award.

　　In fact, in the past few years, the Shandong young women's basketball team also had the first competition result and the second overall ranking. However, many fans still say that they can't understand the "strange thing" that Shandong U17 women's basketball team won all seven games but ended up in second place.

　　According to the official explanation, the calculation method of the total ranking of the top 16 women's teams in the national U17 Youth Basketball League in 2023 is as follows: total score = competition score+quality and technical standard score+technical evaluation score. Competition score = (number of teams-ranking) × 75%; Quality and technical standards score = (number of teams-ranking) × 15%; Technical evaluation score = (number of teams-ranking) ×10%. In this regard, the netizen "the scholar who killed the pig" questioned: This is more funny. Competitive sports are not the result of the competition, but they have to calculate the ranking and achievements through a series of complicated formulas. Even the MVP of the CBA finals depends on the data calculation formula. It is even more outrageous. Netizen "Shengkai Qingfeng" commented: "Strange and strange! There is such a magical operation! This is more magical than Journey to the West and Romance of the Gods! I hope this advanced calculation method can also be introduced into the international football field, especially the men's soccer team, so that the China men's soccer team can rush out of Asia and go to the world! "

　　Of course, there are also a few fans who know the situation better. They think that it is right to guide the players to improve their overall quality by not excessively pursuing achievements in the youth team competition, but there can be better methods in specific operations to avoid disputes. One fan left a message saying: "The original intention of this rule should be to force strong teams to do a good job in physical fitness and skill training, but after all, it is out of the purity of the game." Perhaps the name of the event will be changed to the comprehensive quality evaluation of youth basketball. As one of the projects, the league will issue the champion and runner-up trophy, and the comprehensive quality evaluation will issue the ranking certificate. In this way, the Shandong team can win the championship trophy, while the Zhejiang team will get the certificate of the first place in the comprehensive quality evaluation, so that everyone can understand it better.

　　Insiders: The test standard is a bit "dogmatic"

　　There is a star player in this Shandong U17 women's basketball team. She is the center Zhang Ziyu who is 2.26 meters tall. In this competition, Zhang Ziyu can contribute 32 points and 12 rebounds per game, but her performance in the quality and technical standards test is not very good, which may be one of the reasons why the team failed to get the first place in the comprehensive ranking. In this regard, some insiders also put forward their own views. "In this U-series competition, the test standards are basically set according to girls who are about 1.60 meters to 1.70 meters tall. So you let Zhang Ziyu compete with these athletes who are 1.6 meters or 1.7 meters tall. What line is she? "

　　In 2023, women's basketball in China is a bit high and low: first, China won the Asian Cup championship after 12 years, and then China's U16 and U19 women's basketball teams were defeated in international competitions. To this end, many fans called on chinese basketball association to give a special talent like Zhang Ziyu a chance to be selected into the national brand. However, according to the existing test standards, Zhang Ziyu will definitely not pass the test. I still hope that chinese basketball association can not make a one-size-fits-all approach to comprehensive quality testing, but should set different standards according to height and weight. In this regard, CBA league has actually made a good attempt.
