Sorry guys, I couldn't get us over the line against a strong Hong Kong. We put since effort into getting this win as it was one we really wanted to put us in a good place for finals, but we were not the strongest side.

Mvps
3- Flood with 22pts, 7 assists, 4 rebounds
2- Khaira with 15pts, 6 boards, 3 assists
1- Van Der Spek with 13pts (on 25% shooting), 7 assists, 5 boards

I missed the mvps on UAE last week:

3- Murry 20pts, 6 assists, 5 steals, 3 boards
2- Khaira 18pts, 4 assists
1- Traina 17pts, 9 boards

Looks like its been a challenging season tactics wise with our big man weakness. Although van der Spek getting totally shut down doesn't help. Annoyed Flood wasn't in better GS and couldn't start because he had 70 minutes which is pretty normal.

Yeah all good though. Firstly, Phillipines are a great balanced team with plenty of fire-power so it was a good win for them. Our bigs couldn't challenge the better sides, we are a long way behind them. This makes our great guards look powerless as they are being shut down. But yeah something wasn't right for flood and I had to flick him to the bench. I thought khaira would have played better to be honest, he is pretty good!

Mvps
3- Luu
2- Vansterdam

Flood actually dominated my Relegation game, led my team to victory.
