We defeated U.A.E. 93-55(46175) to improve to 5-0 in the group Monday. Four players scored in double figures, including Nakao who led all scorers with 26. We will close out the first group next week against undefeated Australia. We are guaranteed to finish first or second in the group and will advance no matter the outcome.

I once had a team with 1757 players and was $25,835,360 in debt. This is not that team. Join the Discord group open to anyone, but especially for USA managers to improve your club or get involved with the U21 and NT programs (https://discord.gg/cKpNkt2).

We fell to Australia 79-59(46177) to finish group play 5-1. This puts us in a second group with China, Malaysia, Iran, Taiwan, and Lubnan. That is also the order in which we will play them. This is the stronger of the two second groups, but I'm hoping for two wins out of this.

I also find it hilarious that we went 5-1 in the first group and my Manager Popularity fell to 50%. If anyone has an issue with how I've managed the team, I invite you to reply here or send a BB-Mail so your concerns can be heard.

We've gone 4-2 in the first group just 3 times ever, including my first season in Season 40. This season we did the best we've ever done at 5-1 and very easily could have been 3-3 instead.

You're doing a great job. You should ignore those ratings.

Lol only need 7 more votes with at least 6 against to oust me.

I don't put a great percentage of stock into the rating, but it does help to know that there isn't total support for the success during my term. I had already considered this being the final go, so I'll just make that announcement today that in Season 44 I will not be running for reelection.

Man, you are doing a great job!! Ignore those chumps whose players didn't make the team and this is how they vent. Keep winning and I will always vote for you.

Nippon had never beaten China in their 9 total meetings since Season 6(0-8 in Asias, 0-2 in Scrimmages)...but that all changed today! We felled the beast 103-96 in double overtime. Matsuoka dropped 61 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to lead the way while Inaba also had a double-double of 15 points and 20 rebounds.

I tried to get cheeky and guessed wrong even though my guess had originally been correct before talking with the China U21 manager. We also burned a Crunch Time in this one, but I feel it was worth it and we'll see how the rest of this season goes as we try to make up that difference.

We will next face Malaysia who defeated Iran today.
