We played a game against Vietnam, the victory is +21.
Spence has returned from injury, but he is still in shape 5. We defended well, but our attack was not outstanding. However, the roster was far from optimal. Lyle didn't play the strongest game again. But this time he was playing against the strongest player of the opponent, so he focused on defense and drawing. It was mainly our wingers who attacked. I put spare bigmen in the 9 shape at the start. In attack, they did not show themselves well, but they worked well on the selection.
The following rivals became known: Germany, Barbados, Turkey, Andorra, Portugal, Azerbaijan. Moreover, we play with strong opponents on the road, with weak ones at home. In general, I am satisfied with the draw. We have to take three wins if we are in the optimal composition.
A good week on upgrades: Boyd +1, Lochiel +1, Blair +1, Michael +2, Lawson +2.

Sounds good. And maybe a surprise victory on the road, who knows? If gameshape is great, something might be possible. But I'd advise to play CT against Germany. Not only because it's my home country but because I know most of the skills of the players on the roster.

Good luck for the season. And great to see that Boyd is still collecting ups.

What is going on with Lyle this season? He hasn't scored under 20 ppg since his rookie year (seems to focus more on passing this season). And now his streak of scoring titles on the NT is also in danger. Hope he'll have his first 30+ point game soon...
No chance of winning the game against Germany, but we still appreciate your work Let's win the next one against Barbados!

Maybe Lyle just saved some energy in order to score 40+ points next game?

Unfortunately, we failed to impose the struggle on Germany, the defeat, -53.
After all, they are the second team in the world, and played at home. Besides, I didn't guess the opponent's pace. I expected that the German coach, as in his previous two matches, would play quickly. But he preferred the low post and did not lose. Spence is still only in form 7 after the injury, he is not very much feared. Our base offense played controversially. Yes, the implementation is weak. But I am happy with the distribution of throws and the number of FT.
Yes, indeed Lyle falls out of the team game a little. But we need to understand that from this season he is no longer the strongest player of the team. He also plays PG, it seems to me that he would be better off on SG. There is simply no alternative to it yet.
But Boyd began to reveal himself as a point-forward. He still lacks attacking skills, but there is still time for upgrades.
Upgrades: Lochiel +2, Blair +1.
Barbados is ahead, we must win

We didn't experience any problems in the match with Barbados, victory, +62.
It should be noted that the match was held at home and I guessed the opponent's pace. Nevertheless, the match turned out well, especially in defense. The opponent made less than 15% of shots, earned less than 40 points. But our team was going for it, the progress in the defensive skills of the team over the past two seasons is significant. We attacked well, but without brilliance. Shots from beyond the arc rarely hit the target. But so far it is quite satisfactory.
Turkey is visiting ahead, I will try to soften our defeat.
No upgrades this week =(

That‘s what is usual for senior NTs. So maybe that‘s a good sign that your players are finally close to international competitiveness. But I wouldn’t object to you seeing some green arrows on future Fridays!

…and by the way: congrats on the victory!

The match with Turkey was played. Defeat, -23.
Considering that the match was held away, this is a good result. It turned out to be quite a big difference between the percentage FG from us and the opponent. But this difference was reduced thanks to offensive rebounds and free throws.
The attack tactics didn't play quite the way I wanted. I didn't really like the distribution of our shots in this match. There weren't many attacks through Boyd. But 88 points scored is a good indicator for us.
Ahead of the match with Andorra, we need to win.
Upgrades: MacKersey +1, MacShimes +1, Lawson +1, MacNuir +1.
