Comparison Study of Efficiency of Guards in Men's Basketball

-- A Case Study of the Top Six Teams in the 28th FIBA Asia Cup

Abstract

Guards, as the brains and commanders of a basketball team, play a crucial role in the game. This study utilizes methods such as video observation, mathematical statistics, and logical analysis to analyze and compare the technical indicators of guards' game efficiency in the top six teams of the 28th FIBA Asia Cup. The research indicates that South Korean guards excel in assisting and fast-break performance. Lebanese and Chinese guards demonstrate strong fouling-drawing abilities, mainly through dribbling. Philippine and Iranian guards exhibit strong ball control and minimize turnovers, particularly in passing and receiving. Individual guards from China and the Philippines show outstanding game efficiency, but there are notable gaps between guards within the same team. Lebanese and Japanese guards, as a group, display higher overall game efficiency and balanced performance.
