My thoughts on the Gilas-Indonesia game: Indonesia came out strong in the first quarter, well-prepared to face Batang Gilas. Gilas initially tried to replicate the strategies they used in SEABA, feeling out the game. However, Esperanza's right driving lane was effectively sealed off, preventing him from executing the DDO or penetrating the defense.
The second quarter was a different story. Gilas made key adjustments, aggressively applying the press and even running a triangle play, which disrupted Indonesia's defensive strategy. Cabonillas unexpectedly showcased his outside shooting, as did Drei Lorenzo. Medina continued his usual routine, sinking threes, and mid-range shots while using his long arms to swat several of Indonesia's wing attempts. Esperanza's all-around game was impressive. On the other hand, Velasquez, who replaced Andy, struggled and was hard to watch. That kid Esteban, though, showed great athleticism and reminds me a lot of Abadam.
Jordan has size on their side, but they seem to struggle with ball-handling. A quicker Batang Gilas would likely take advantage of that. I believe NZ is beatable as well.

Sometimes miracles happen.
That being said, I don't see us beating Japan or China in the playoffs if we drop the NZ game.
No fucking way we're beating Australia if we squeeze past Japan or China.
Yes, we're 90% done by this point.

I know it's fucking Snow Badua but I really hope this article:
As calls for his head grows louder, Josh Reyes has one final chance to redeem himself in the Jordan tournament
means Joke Reyes is finally out of the Youth program and should never be given a Gilas coaching role.
