52+13 in two games are hard to win: Goodwin is praised for his NBA s level of operational control, media people joked that they are preparing for the CBA in advance

On August 8, in the 2025 Men's Basketball Asian Cup, Qatar's men's basketball team suffered a 83-97 defeat in the South Korean men's basketball team and suffered a two-game losing streak. Qatar's two-game losing streak fell directly to the bottom of the group. Their next opponent is the Australian men's basketball team, the strongest in this Asian Cup, so Qatar should end the journey of this Asian Cup with three consecutive losses.

This is a bit uncomfortable for Goodwin. He has really tried his best. The 29-year-old 6-foot defender shoulders on both ends of offense and defense. He fought for 35 minutes in the whole game, 5 of 12 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, 7 of 12 free throws, and scored 19 points, 6 assists, 7 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block. His shooting percentage is 41.7%, and his three-point shooting percentage is 33.3%. He has been double-teamed by three Koreans in the air.

Qatar fans: Goodwin's passing ability is also so outstanding. His ball-handling ability has always been at the NBA level. Lee Hyun-chung of the South Korean team does not have this ability.

Qatar fans: Goodwin can easily break through Zheng Chengyou's defense with the ball, which shows that Goodwin's dribbling skills are far superior to the South Korean team.

It's a pity that one Goodwin could not bring victory to Qatar. Goodwin's personal performance in this game is actually not as good as Li Xianzhong. Li Xianzhong made 7 of 12 shots + 2 of 6 three-pointers, scored 24 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. Li Xianzhong's efficiency and scores surpass Goodwin. Goodwin made his debut against Lebanon in 35 minutes, making 10 of 17 shots, 4 of 9 three-pointers, scoring 33 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals, shooting percentage of 58.8% and three-point shooting percentage of 44.4%. In other words, Goodwin has scored a total of 52 points, 13 assists and 12 rebounds in the two group matches, and he really did his best.

Media people three thorns: Goodwin has basically only the last game left in this Asian Cup, so he can prepare for the CBA as soon as possible. The Qatar Basketball Association should have been very busy in the past two years. If 2027 is not so ugly, this wave of people will have to be replaced.
