Pilipinas back on track, eliminates Thailand. 108-80

We won big against Thailand today, sending them home along with New Zealand. We managed to widen the lead in Q2 and never looked back.

Pool B (Taiwan, China, Indonesia & Singapore) and Pool C (Hong Kong, Malaysia, Lebanon & Pakistan) are pretty much set, order na lang nila yung ide-determine next week.

Sa Pool A naman, Australia at Macau pa lang ang sigurado. May 2 spots pa na pag-aagawan natin with Iran (3-2) and Korea (2-3). Korea will be facing Australia next week and will need a big win to advance. Tayo naman ay Iran ang katapat. Tabla natin sila ng record pero lamang tayo sa point differential. If we win, we'll proceed na next round at sila na mag-aagawan sa last spot.

Looking forward to great game shape sa ating mga players to make sure we secure our spot. Maraming salamat sa lahat nang patuloy na sumusuporta.

Laban Pilipinas!

Pilipinas lost a nail biter against Iran, 137-134

In a tightly contested game throughout where both teams were trading blows, Iran managed to one up us at home. Atoy Fulgencio was stellar for us, managing a 21pts & 13rebs double-double. So does starting PG Hutch Ordoves who managed to get a double-double as well with 19pts & 14asts.

Ito na yung last game sa round na ito at magtatapos tayo na may 3 panalo at 3 talo, good for 4th sa Pool A. Pasok pa rin naman tayo for second round with 5th placed Korea holding a 2-4 record.

Next week, second round naman at ito ang magiging paghahati sa mga nakapasok.

Pilipinas grinds it out against Malaysia, 76-59

Ibang klaseng opener para sa second round campaign natin. We managed to get a win against a feisty Malaysia team who kept us under 50pts before the 4th quarter. Kung gaano ka-high scoring yung last game natin, kabaliktaran naman ito. Brickfest malala.

Tatlo lang sa starters natin ang naka-manage na maka-double-digit sa puntos. Abysmal shooting from the team but we managed to have 17blks. Fortunato Arcega claimed a third with 6, Dave Lemoncito had 4 while Leandro Toledanes and Alan Adrian Marquese each had 3.

Next week, Australia naman ang makakaharap natin. This is a rematch of our first round encounter. Exciting at close din ang naging laro natin laban sa kanila ngunit natalo tayo. Sa ngayon, may 1-0 record na rin sila matapos ma-upset ang Taiwan, beating them by 16.

Looking forward to another great GS week sa Friday at mabigat ang ating makakalaban sa lunes.

Maraming salamat sa lahat nang patuloy na sumusuporta at Laban Pilipinas!
