Game 3 - Scotland 89 - 90 Nederland (81693)

A brave defeat by the narrowest of margins. Our defence kept pace with the Dutch Look Inside focused method of attack. We had a chance to win in the closing moments but ultimately came up just short.

Unfortunately it looks like a double incorrect GDP might have cost us the chance of an upset, this is a sore one for sure. We had a bit of good fortune during the game in that the Dutch sides best player got injured early in the 3rd quarter.

This is a very promising performance and i take great confidence that this team can start winning some of the more equal contests

Our best performer of the night was C Anderson Lyall ((54236814)) with 20 points, 13 Rebounds, 1 Assist, and 1 Block over 34 minutes.

Jeffrey McCoist (54853389) For our football fans, Ally McCoist was a name synonymous with scoring, but Jeffrey McCoist took was more of a provider tonight with 7 assists off the bench.

Our next game is against Russia. We do not have any realistic chances in that match and it will be damage limitation.

Game 4 - Russia 103 - 63 Scotland (81699)

Another difficult match ending in a decisive defeat. a 40 point defeat again. There is no shame in this as Russia look like a top tier side at u21 level this season.

Russia threw in a curveball by electing not to play a fast pace offence, and we missed our GDP prediction.

Our best performer of the night was SG Gary MacIlduy (54541798) with 34 points, 3 Rebounds, 3 Assists and 1 Block over 31 minutes. A shining light in a difficult campaign so far and he did not deserve to be on the losing team with such a performance against a powerful opponent.

Our next game is against Azerbaijan. A game that we really need to win and are expected to do so. We pray our players stay fit and in good shape.
