Comparing Lebanon nt to iran china and other nt

[kerdito2]

dont underestimate the jordanians. they are working on the team like hell since years now and they improved massively.if we beat jordan in our first game we will have an almost sure chance that we'll reach the semi finals against a team other then china.

Man I know the Jordanians very well I played with Zeid Abbas and many of ASU players. Also I know their NT very well they lack a Center and Power Forward (they have Ayman Doeis but he is old and can't give always a 40 min game) and Zeid Abbas performs better on the Small Forward. They cannot Defend Vroman nor Matt in the presence of Fadi and Brian on the court. Oh and they lack 3 pts shooters yes they have Enver and Abou Shamala but Enver is not being consistent and they have done a very big mistake against us by revealing all their weapons just as they always stupidly do before Asia!!!!

And about the semi-final we will face Iran probably if we won Jordan in the first round and lost to China in the 2nd....because Iran are most probably going to be the first of both groups A and B if Korea won't make a big surprise....

The Philippine NT is not a complete team right now. In the upcoming FIBA Asia, our NT will be the underdog that can make upsets because knockout games mean that there'll be insufficient time for preparation for all teams. I believe our current NT can win via upset through tough defense in every given game.

The next FIBA Asia will be our target since Philippines will be fielding a very well-prepared national team composed of new and tall young talents.
