24th FIBA-Asia Championship [Jul 28-Aug 5 Japan]

Problem would be will the players allow themselves to undergo such process... Telling them what to eat and not to eat

[anti_morales]

Yes in any army generals keep the soldiers' morale high by giving them lots of delicious food. But perhaps if the mother clubs (which are the ones paying the players) would cooperate and give the orders to the NT players, that might just work.

Thx man very good news indeed Sam alone is like 30% of the NT..if he makes it i think we have a big chance

[anti_morales]

Too bad. He did a very good job in stopping chinese centers in 1998. I even remember his blocks against wang zhizhi

It was MArlou Aquino.. that coward!!!

but he will be like a useless bamboo standing in front of yao if ever u he'd be joining the rp team... plus i dont like him since i've heard that comment from him... it's good that he's out of the NT.... we don't need such cowards... i do understand his concerns but no need to air such cowardness. He could have kept it to himself...

good chance in wat ? making the olympics ?

[WIZARD]

good chance in wat ? making the olympics ?

Yes...why u sound surprised??? arnt we good enough to make it?

[karim]

hehe....it started with leb. and qatar wanting to qualify.....than philippines lifted the suspension so that it would go.......than japan and south korea are getting their best players to try to qualify......and than theres iran and syria who r the black horses of the tournament as every1 calls them.....after all the problems in leb. i agree that our chances r pretty slim to qualify......but i still think all these teams are better than jordan.....i think jordan are maybe 7th or 8th in asia , no affense man , the asian games which is more like a friendly tournament for teams like leb.,china and south korea and jordan got 4th position which is probably the best they would get........i dont see a team who is 8th in asia winning the asian championship yalla the next step is a guy from malaysia writing that his team wants to qualify to the olympics .......no hard feelings man its just my opinion i hope it doesnt start a fight or anything now but u really shocked me with wat u said

Well i dont know where to start from?? anyway there is alwys first time so it maybe our best chance to make a good thing now do u really think syria is better than us?we have played syria like 8 times last 2 years we wont all of those games about korea and japan we did beat korea last time while they played with their first team iran we beated them also and lost by 5 pts cuz we had few problems that game a death accedent..now ur talking about jordan being 7th in asian game!! well do u know that we played then with young team with out our key players only al khas and sam daghlas played
enver and ayman were injured ,,,my friend i told u i dont care about history
as i told u in basketball there is no dominant country something else how u know its a friendly tournement i mean asian games?? so your games against canada and venezuela wont count either!!! maybe those games arnt ranked with fiba but it was sure damn better than asian cup 2005 ..i think u were saying that cuz Lebanon didnt make anything there!!! anyway WABA is in few weeks and we will see the real level

[WIZARD]

BTW just heard that Vogel and Omar turk arnt playing either!!!!!how accurate
is this?

[zouz]

man i wanna say something that all the team have a chance to qualify but don't count lebanon.
i believe that after a year from now we will be back 2 times stronger,now we are going through a difficult moment where our president won't sign the paper of nationalisation because he sees that the governement is illegal
so u can see that we can't bring our strong players abroad
but i can assure all the guys here that we will be back next year sronger than anyone in asia(even china) because by then we will have minimum 4 to 5 players playing abroad of lebanese origine + the fact that we may change vogel and get another one who is stronger(that what fouad abu chakra said)
the olympics qualification this year are far to achieve but we have the best national team for youngesters(maybe 90-91)so maybe we have a chance in 2012(by then i hope the conflict in lebanon will be finished)
so if a team beats lebanon this year don't think ur better because we will be back next year stronger than anytime before

[zouz]

and by the way karim now jordan is stronger than lebanon and they can win by 10 to 15 points because jordan is under a heavy training camp while some of our players are affraid and some are getting married
karim, we are weak now, we can't do anything in asia,i think we will achieve a rank between 6 and 9 no more than that

by the way rashim wright who is playing with jordan is a very kind person.We in tripoli love him and we hope he comes back to almuttahed so if lebanon won't qualify i will chear for jordan(+ the fact that my brother wife is jordananian)
Jordan is stronger than philippine and syria and i believe they have a good chance of qualifying
i jusy hope that a miracle happens to lebanon and everything is fixed
