  • Group E, Day 3: Philippines vs Kuwait

    Starts 9:00 am Tianjin time.

    Kuwait is a running team, so expect perimeter and outside shots from this team.

    If the defense we used on Korea, Japan and Taiwan clicks along with our shooting, then there's no doubt we can beat this team.

      Kuwait can play but their problem is that they lack presence in the paint. Most of their points come from perimeter, lay-ups and outside shots. So when high caliber teams saw this weakness, they employed rough defense to give Kuwait a miserable time in hitting their shots.

        Unlike the contenders we don't have the luxury of playing our A-game every single time. i feel bad for Kuwait because we will be back to playing our rugged physical defense tomorrow. i don't know what will happen to our offense but this is the last bus for the other guys to build their confidence. Yeah, i meant Santos, Raymundo and a bit of Aguilar.
        If there is no basketball in heaven, i am NOT going.

        SMALLBALL, bitches..

          We definitely need this win tomorrow so YG mustn't take any chances.

            I want to see more of Japeth tomorrow. And a whole lotta Arwind. Maybe we can start Kerby at the PF while we're at it.

            We should keep on pounding the opposition -- inside, outside. Feed the ball to the low post at every opportunity. To keep defenses honest, we should also start Norwood at SF -- he had a good game earlier and he should be ready to carry that over tomorrow.

            We will win this one by at least 10 points.
            Keep running, big boy.

              i am predicting a deficit around that number as well. But the ideal finish for tomorrow is that we end it as soon as possible; meaning we blow them out. Nothing like a good confidence booster going into Friday's knockout showdown with Jordan/Lebanon and ugh, maybe China if they get upset one way or the other this round.

                  You mean something like: "First quarter pa lang, tapos na ito"?

                      Thanks!! But it's not the kind of mentality they need for tomorrow. They should give the same passion they showed today. The Lead doesn't matter, what matters is that the big men gain their confidence back.

                        RP will win by at least 20 pts ...we tend to play lax against lowly team but i hope i'm wrong.

                          I think every team does. Look at Iran in the 4th Q.

                              No disrespect to Kuwait but i think we'll win this game. More than that, this is a perfect time for us to sharpen our execution and hopefully slowly get Japeth back in rhythm because we will definetely need him to produce in the coming games for us to have a better chance in this tournament.
