This game against Iran is Palestine's last chance of staying alive in the tournament. Unfortunately for them, Iran will most definitely go BEAST MODE on them after the Philippines handed them their first defeat in a long time in FIBA Asia.
This is probably it for Palestine. They are feeling the effects of a 6-7 man rotation in the 2nd round. Nobody can just play for full 40 minutes on a consistent basis no matter how good you are.
But I'm still happy for Palestine to come this far into the tournament. Their huge debut in Asia's highest level of basketball is surely a token of inspiration for their people in a war-torn land.
With Iran getting the #2 seed in Group E if the Philippines beats India, they will probably face Lebanon or Qatar in the quarters and China in the semis.
