hmmm... Philippines?
since 1990 only 4 times they sent their best available players. 1990, 1994, 1998 and 2002 asian games. they finished 2nd, 4th, 3rd and again 4th after losing to korea by a point(freak buzzer-beating trey) for the right to face china for the gold medal in who would have thought, korea. they defeated twice the world champioship bound lebanon by a ragtag team hastily formed 3 days before the match. and they only saw the B team. lebanon's coach once said during an interview "you beat us twice but who's going to the world championship?" the world watched the world championship unfold expecting to see the best team without knowing that there are countries who are a lot better just watching on their tv sets at home.
