Well,
This was a though loss for us today, against a team we had a chance, Lubnan.
On my mind, the history of this game was the big enthusiasm diference between botyh teams, they used Crunch Time and we used Take it Easy. Also we had no enthusiasm after the wins against Iran and Singapore...
Than the injury of Trevor Hardy (our best guard for this game, at good shape) at 2 minutes gameplay was also tought hit for us..
Next game is a must win for us, as we want to go to next phase!

Best regards!

Good Year New Zealand!

Not such a good start for our NT. Unfortunatly we won't advance to the next phase, even with this last win that gives us 3-3 record.
I'm really sad, I think we deserved this alot, but as Singapore and Iran have better point diferencial (despite being 3-3 also) we are out. On Pool A and B teams with 3-3 passed but this was really balanced.

Now we will make scrimmages and prepare for next season. My mission is the same, improve New Zealand rank, this result was disapointing, but I still consider a great result..

Best Regards

Hello everyone,

Sorry for not posting for a while...but since we have just been playing scrimmages, it hasn't been much interesting.

Soon I'll talk about next season objectives, since we still don't know who are we playing against.

Best Regards all, and remember to vote for the U21 NT position!

Hello my friends,

The season as started for us, our 2 first oponents were known a few days ago...and bad news, 2 hard oponents to start of...Nippon and Schweiz!

Surprise surprise...we beat Nippon today! eheh... They had poor game shapes, we had some good ones, and then an injurie to their SF also helped us on that win.

Good start for us, next game will be even harder and probably an ugly loss is incoming, lets wait and see.

Regards all!

WOW!
great win.
how much fun to see Burton and Hardy, and Day and Styles like they today, I remember they as much little, and much less good players.

*I don't think that Inside Isolation is good tactic for this roster, but you win this today, so this is really not important.

It was a good tactic when our 2 best Centers had good game shape vs their bad shape ;)
It is an opinion, but I know what I did eheheh!
Thanks

Good center = look inside or low post.

This is not what inside isolation give for us.
You need good players who know to shoot from outside once you play like this and more.. this is not only good shooting from inside.. look at your 3PT%.
Look inside could give you much better results.

But win is win.

Well, Its not my job to justify my tactic decisions, but I like doing it eheh...

5 from 17 isn't that bad...and should be better since our guards can shoot from range. Its still better than their 3 from 12.

On a Look Inside we would have more action from our guards vs their guards before throwing the ball inside and I didn't want that. One vs One Inside puts their Centers much more in cause forcing them to defend and make fouls. Check their team fouls...

But yeah, I won't discuss this much more apart from this post Still thanks for your help and opinion ;)

Hello hello again!

Last game we had a loss against a strong oponent...we didn't even try to contest the game as we knew it would be impossible for us. We used no enthusiasm and made no big chances on our tactics, maybe we can pick somebody asleep on a thougher game later.

Next games are already out, as expected we got ourselfs hard games on those next weeks....qualifying for the next stage is nearly impossible. We will try to keep our ranking going up as we did last season tho.
Our most important game will be against Shqipëria, wich has a team close to ours I think...

Regards all

And there goes another loss to us...

After some good results last season, this time I am a bit sad that I am failing to get wins. I'm sorry for that, I don't know what I could do diferently to get this win.

We got tough matches all season, and this was for me our best chance to get a win. Used all effort, went inside for our big guys that were in good shape, but failed to beat them at their hometown (they used max effort too).

Now we will wait for the rest of the games, maybe we can surprise somebody
