I'll pick Japan over Iran"A king may move a man, a father may claim a son, but that man can also move himself, and only then does that man truly begin his own game. Remember that howsoever you are played or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone, even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power, when you stand before God, you cannot say, 'But I was told by others to do thus,' or that virtue was not convenient at the time.

Hrabak is more of a stretched big while Konov is a natural wing. BTW your prediction that Batang Gilas will win by not less than 20 points was spot-on..Originally posted by JAMSKIE View PostComment

I hope my prediction on the Batang Gilas vs. Australia quarterfinals match would be wrong. Come on coach Josh, make me look like a dumb!!!!!!!Originally posted by tomcat View Post"A king may move a man, a father may claim a son, but that man can also move himself, and only then does that man truly begin his own game.

i didnt get to watch last night, but looking at stats from FIBA website, Konov had a great shooting night. something that a lot of fans was hoping to see before the games even started. the last 2 games, his shooting was really bad.Originally posted by tomcat View PostWE DON'T COUNT YEARS, WE COUNT CENTURIES

I know the Nieto u16 team did not encounter Oz or NZ. Did Kai? Realistically speakimg we are 4-6 in this age group after Oz, NZ and China. We are around the level of JP, Korea. I dont know anything about the ME teams though.Originally posted by juggler View Post

Iran and Lebanon probably has a team that can match well with PHI, KOR, JPN every other batch or so.Originally posted by Rds View PostComment

I have this feeling that Lebanon isn't in the same level of Japan, Korea & Phi in this tournament.Originally posted by Juancho View Post"A king may move a man, a father may claim a son, but that man can also move himself, and only then does that man truly begin his own game.

Yep. Kai's batch faced NZ.Originally posted by Rds View Post
Semifinals there was:
Philippines VS China
Australia VS NZ
Nz and Philippines lost. And faced each other in the battle for 3rd place where BG lost. Settling for 4th place.
Australia Beat China in the FinalsComment

With the game against Kazakhstan, the Japan loss became more unforgiveable because seeing how other teams performed, a slot in the finals was very doable. Of course, Australia will likely win but at least we get to enter the Worlds.
We really need some help from some Goodfellas to solve our coaching problem.sigpicComment

Is Basti Reyes related to Jay-R Reyes and Choke Reyes?Comment
-
-
Basti is not that bad (in Ph level) its just that he was billed as an all-around player at 6'5ish. What we've seen with Bayla is i think how i expect Basti to be. Really unfair for him actually since si Bayla my guard rep/training overseas. If someone said from the beg that he's in the mold of Porter just slimmer&quicker (strictly as a big)then yes he's not that badOriginally posted by crenshaw View PostComment

Basti is skilled. Can rebound and bring the ball down himself. Best part is that he is a consummate teammate and willing passer. For this tournament its probably a confidence thing. But @16 he could still be a monster.Originally posted by carmelo7 View PostComment

In the event of a miracle happening. (Again, A Miracle)
I mean batang gilas beating australia.
Will the credit go to coach josh?
Or, to our bg players.
I believe it will still credit to the players. Haha.
But that is very unlikely to happen.
Sayang yung japan. I believe it is a winnable gameComment
