  • my guess on what ranking may happen in ABC

    1. Lebanon- they've been to WBC and sure has a lot of experience. with china using team b, makes them vulberable hence,asia's #1 contender becomes the #1. if they got through european 3rd placer France why cant it beat other asian teams?they must avoid overconfidence and fight hard as if they were the underdog always.

    2.Iran-the team has improved a lot and had surprised japan and korea last asian games.they must have gained confidence from that but still less compared to lebanon. also their asset is height.

    3-4. japan/philippines/korea-
    japan's homecourt advntage can boost them but still not enough for them to win the gold.they're still stagnant and no improvement has been seen .

    Philippines, has improved a lot too. it's starting to play the international kind of game and relies on quickness&outside shooting. but absence for 5yrs had given chance teams like lebanon and iran to learn more and surpass us. we're having problems also in height.

    as for korea, their team is mysterious and may shock other teams so they shud not be taken for granted. their performance in asian games was kinda dissapointing tho.

    ************************************************** *******
    Now,China for me has no place given that theyll use team B.if im not mistaken, most of its players must still be kinda immature of international games and have little confidence. expose their team B more in intl' games, they can get a place in the next ABC.

      Of course there could be an endless discussion now about who is stronger - a clubteam with two imports or a true national team with a certain number of players still to be added from other clubs. As for Kazakhstan, a NT with the best locals would certainly be stronger than the clubteam playing in Iran - for the teams from the Middle East I couldn't really say, and probably no other Filippino fan here either. Our friends from Lebanon could possibly come up with some info here.
      Until the Asian Champs begin, and every team has to show its real face, everything is nothing but pure speculation.
      Yet the Philippine team hasn't accomplished anything, that could possibly make anyone believe, that they are already a top team and a safe bet for the Olympics. Too many other teams also have a solid chance in my eyes (of course the Philippines being one of them!).

      So far, losses against the iranian clubteam and the NT in a friendly match, a loss against the clubteam from Kazakhstan and a big loss against the clubteam from Syria - ont he other hand a win over a clubteam from Bahrain, that has lost big time to everyone else too and a nice win over the Bluestars.
      I don't think this is yet any kind of indication for being the number one contender for the olympic ticket
      .
      Nor is any indication that the RP squad wouldn't come out on top.. You said it yourself there is no way for us to find out since RP are the only ones that fielded a national squad.

      • Like i said in many posts in this thread that we can't give the top 4 teams in Asia bcz many things :
        1-All asia teams changed his players like jordan,syria,....
        2-A new NT will participate in asia champ(Philippine) and this last is a good team.
        3-Chine will send his B team .
        4-The competition is very difficult,all the teams try to get the first position to qualified to olympics games next year !!

        • True. So many things have changed. This thread should be updated only after the Asian Championships.

          • Daniab is correct, we can't establish the top 4 teams yet. We have not seen this RP battle it out yet with these asian teams so everyone stop rating them.

                just a side notes, china B team won a tune-up game against A team last night. Now they split the record of 1-1. A team played without their top 7 key members though.

                B team will play 2 games against Melbone Tigers this week.

                  So, no matter is China A team or China B team, the strength very is all formidable in Asia, as for very many friends thought " B team was inferior A TEAM " the view is very one-sided. Therefore, PR;Lebanon;S.korea and so on...do not have to think we dispatch B team to think this year the competition can very with ease defeat us, we cannot let you be very relaxed in Japan

                  • China is the team to beat in asian region... They got a height and power...
                    no question about that.. But some asian team are improving... like lebanon who beat france ( because no tony parker ) at that time. Iran who beat sokor.. Philippines who beat lebanon not once not twice but 3 times.... SOKOR.. quite still dangerous...

                    Talking about china's arrogant.. they send a so called B team.. i guess anyone will agree on me that doesnt matter what type of class do you have... Nevermind if you send yao ming or bruce lee the bottom line every asian team except china... want a competition among asian countries... So beware chinese team... dont say ending words yet.. maybe one day any asian team will shocked your basketball team, just like SOKOR screwed you on ASIAN GAMES...

                          dude we know that we got it and we've been teling it to others for several times.no people here on asian bball forums dont know it. let's stop bringing out past stuffs and focus on the present, our RP 5, cus it's useless. they jus tend to say "the only thing u can do is brag about something happened long time ago."

                          peace

                            hey, can u name an asian country aside from china who can beat a team with 7'3" monster import? and bottomline is, our NT team went there not to aspire for the championship but just to learn or at least see how other countries have developed. i mean their NT players who are playing there.
                            and one thing more, if we bring the worst team in our div1 and put a 7'3" monster import and another who has a very good touch in shooting. i think they can beat the saba battery of iran convincingly.

                            • daniab/karim, do you know the complete line up of lebanon who will be at the tokushima games? do they naturalized some players too just for the july games? i believe series of exhibition games between lebanon NT and philippine NT will be played here in the philippines just before the olympic qualifier in japan.

                                don't forget that china is improving too.
                                Your lebanon and Iran cases are supportive to your point. but couple wins in some friendship games mean nothing for philippines. IMHO, philippines basketball is still as same as his before if not worse, but other asian countries are playing much better basketball now.
