      1. dillinger/norwood/baguio on kamrani.
      2. dillinger/norwood/santos on samad.
      3. asi/pennisi on haddadi.

      please, no james yap on either kamrani or samad. miller/helterbrand may also need help on kamrani. maybe they should guard the SG instead.

        But it is a given that they are the strongest. But here's a thought, if we do consider this strategy imagine the horror when Jordan manages to upset China and we were stuck at #3! It's a collision with China anyway!

        So yeah, play our cards every time and play them to win. If this was poker, we never have the big stacks to begin with; what's the point of strategy if we are going to lose 'em chips anyway?

          PENISSI - C
          AGUILAR - F
          DILINGER - F
          YAP - G
          NORWOOD - G

          But if he is out of rhythm again in the 7 mins. play for 1st qtr. I guess it's time to substitute, the important is coaches test his playing minutes..

          - Still Gabe, Kerby and Arwind are out of rhythm, James Yap is done for CT, hope this guys shown tomorrow...
          i agree. FREE GABE NORWOOD!!!

              Win or lose we eventually have to face either Jordan or Lebanon. Right?

              And the only way to meet Qatar instead of those 2 is to beat Iran and Kuwait while Iran beats Korea. Right?

                That's about right. And even then we'd have to worry about how many points Iran has over Korea. So it's really out of our hands positioning, match-ups)

                i say, let's play to win nonetheless.

                  This team has not played together for so long i think it's important to continue building on their confidence as we go along--- we need that, we have such a volatile, streaky group of players that i think playing to win helps more rather than scouting/preparing and such.

                  Oh well, we'll see Guiao's plans about 12 hours from now.
                  China's focus is somewhat questionable, based on their games with UAE and Kaz--they couldnt blow them out thoroughly. Yes they're strong right now but so far, they've not been the mad beast i expected. I won't be that surprised if the hungry Mideast teams beat them.

                    if I were Coach Yeng since we'll eventually meet either Jordan or Lebanon i would use tomorrow's ballgame to test some really good set plays that can free up our SF.. so far they're not really successful with Jared and Norwood didn't even attempted to attack the basket that often..

                    they should also slow down the game to avoid injury and conserve energy.. at this point in the tourney, it is really important also to prepare ahead..

                    winning or losing does not really matter for me.. the important thing is they'll develop some penetration and inside play..

                    if they win then good, Iran might pull an upset against Korea.. yes it's not a typo, Korea is my favorite to beat Iran slightly..

                    if they lose, then at least they've gained something from playing with a MidEast country..

                        Gabe is not ready to lead this team, I don't see it happening, you got Jayjay who leads the team in assist and Miller who shows he can light up the outside shots at the 1 spot already. Gabe has not done both, so it would be counter productive to pressure Gabe at the 1 spot when he has yet to get any footing in the tourney.

                        Also I'm getting pissed at Kerby's tendency to not make the quick pass and opt out to pump fake the pass and letting the opponent set up their defense, he just can't let go of that tendency.

                        Dillinger on the other hand won't scrap for the ball when its going outside, this is the second straight game where he let the ball go out, thinking the opposition touched it last, you don't think, you just get the ball.

                        Thank God for Willie, James and Jayjay 3pt shooting they lit up the game against CT.

                        I don't expect us to win tomorrow but I would like to see a close and respectable game still.

                            maybe. but IMHO, gambling with Norwood at PG may be key to winning over the WABA teams and China. We need a tall line-up against those teams. A back court tandem like miller-yap is just too undersized for the bigger teams.

                            you don't expect us to win tomorrow? you are entitled to your own opinion. but given the track record of your predictions (nothing new here, you consistently think we'll lose), i think we'll do good tomorrow.

                            I know we are going to lose, I just hope its not that bad and we somehow by a miracle reach the 3rd round.

                              agreed that norwood should be allowed to play PG. i saw him yet again bring down the ball for a few seconds. i thought he's way better than our best buddy Miller who by the way is a hero in this win over taipei. But Miller got pawned again by the opponent's pg turning over the ball in a one on one match up hehe.

                                Where did the flame bait come from? I don't make predictions, I hate making predictions, Don't take my word out of context for pete sake, didn't we lose 1 game to SoKo already? All I want is respectability is that too hard to ask and respect?

                                Dude if you need to look for a hater to flame someone, your looking at the wrong guy. I don't hate and if you've really followed my post (which of course I bet you didn't and of course couldn't....) I always stated and I quote "I rather be proven wrong"

                                Go to PEX my friend if you need to flame bait someone.
