If China B can beat the guest teams, then it only means the guest teams are way weaker than China A.
the guest teams are also b or c teams of their respective countries.

China vs Australia in Stancovic Cup now playing live...
1st Half.. 26-40
Australia vs China
Does anyone knows which Chinese team is playing in Stancovic cup? Is it the National Team that will come to Manila in August?
the guest teams are also b or c teams of their respective countries.
Hoping that we won't see Jordan Clarkson's b*tch in Manila![]()
and we are hoping to see Jordan Clarkson in a PHILIPPINE basketball uniform![]()
Is he eligible ? Is he interested to play for our country ?
Honestly, me too. I want Korea in the knockout stages since we're familiar with how they play, not some team that's pretty much under the umbrella of obscurity like Kazakhstan. It's a huge gamble considering what is at stake (not just the semifinal and WC slot, but also the pride of the Filipinos raring to get back at them after Busan and Wuhan).
Remember, Chot is the only guy that coached a Philippine team that defeated a senior Sokor NT since Busan and that was in the 2007 Jones Cup. Heck, that was the only time we beat them since Busan.
Yeng's team got close, but were beaten three times -.- . 83-80 in the 2009 Jones Cup, 69-56 and 82-80 in Tianjin 2009.
Toroman meanwhile, had a 78-70 loss in the Jones Cup followed by that pakengshet game v2.0 in Wuhan, 70-68.
I really think our current team can pull it off. Imagine the quarterfinal atmosphere in MOA when we face the Koreans in a KO gameIf I were in the stadium, I'd make a banner:
"VENGEANCE FOR BUSAN 2002 & WUHAN 2011."![]()
Good karma lang. We show respect and Class, we are sure to receive something else in return.I think we should never have hatred on what happened in the past.. because in the end it will haunt us and still never get the job done..What we think of Korea is what Taiwan thinks of us..
Think about it...we all knew what Taiwan is in Phil. Basketball...
MANAMA moved one victory away from clinching this year's title in the Zain Bahrain Basketball League following a thrilling 73-70 victory over Muharraq last night in game two of their best-of-five championship series.
Manama squandered a 15-point lead in the second half but did enough late in the game to hold on to the advantage and take the commanding 2-0 finals lead.
Mohammed Hassan made two pressure-packed free-throws with 7.6 seconds remaining to give Manama the three-point winning margin.
Mohammed Abdulmajeed had a chance to tie the game for Muharraq on the next possession, but his desperation three-point attempt clanged off the rim as the final buzzer sounded.
Manama can now finish things off and ensure their coronation as this year's league champions with a victory in game three on Thursday. A win for Muharraq would extend the series to a fourth game, scheduled for Sunday, while the fifth and final game, if needed, will be held on Friday next week.
Muharraq mounted a furious comeback from 10 points down beginning the fourth quarter to set up the nail-biting finish.
Naturalised Bahraini big man CJ Giles made a pair of three-throws with around five minutes left in the game to bring Muharraq to within two, 56-60.
And then after an offensive rebound and put back by Senegalese import and former NBA player Pape Sow (207-F-81, college: CS Fullerton) put Manama back up by six, 62-56, Ahmed Al Derazi buried back-to-back three-pointers to tie the scores for the first time in the game and give Muharraq new life.
But just as Muharraq had levelled the proceedings, Sow made a jump hook and then two charity shots to give them another four-point lead with under a minute remaining.
Ahead
Baskets from Al Derazi and Mohammed Hussain on either end of the floor kept Manama ahead 68-64, and then after a pair of Giles free-throws, Manama point guard Ahmed Abdulaziz drove the lane and found Sow who made a crucial basket for a 70-66 lead with 18.8 seconds remaining.
Super substitute Kadhem Majed banked in a shot for Muharraq, who then fouled Hassan Nairouz on the inbounds to stop the clock.
Nairouz made just one of two free-throws, keeping Muharraq within a single possession, and Giles scored on the other end to make it 70-71 and set the stage for Hassan's two game-clinching charity shots.
Sow top scored for the victors with 26 points. Hassan finished with 18, while Hussain chipped in with 15 for Manama. Giles paced Muharraq with a game-high 28 while Al Derazi added another 20 in the loss. Abdulmajeed scored nine points while Majed came off the bench to contribute six.
Manama came out firing on all cylinders in the first quarter last night. A Hassan fast-break lay-up gave them a 10-2 lead, and then later a Sow triple made it 20-7. Another long-range bomb from beyond the arc gave Manama a commanding 23-8 advantage to end the first quarter, and then in the second, they continued their barrage and led by as many as 17 on more than one occasion.
A Hussain three-pointer late in the half helped put Manama up 38-23 heading into the locker rooms.
Muharraq did well to bounce back in the final 20 minutes, but came up short in the end although missed a couple of chances in which they could have taken control of the game.

I think Chot also won against a Korean team (albeit, a ballclub) in the 2012 Jones Cup, through the heroics of Jeff Chan, if I recall correctly.
