I won't comment on your personal life but I guess you now have many stories to tell, that's one thing which makes life interesting, living it. May you be happy with your life.
I like the 11-man team we have, the oldest player is 31-year old so the team should only get better in the coming 2 seasons. As for Israel, we already showed them what Malaysia NT is capable of, they won by 7 with the home court advantage. They won't take us lightly, they know we can beat them.
Just one point about the draft, Malaysia never had a 70 TSP draftee. We had a few 60+ 18yo players but they were rare. Even rarer were those high 18yo TSP combined with good potential. Zhuang Changming was the most memorable one in the past seasons.
