Congratulations the guy is deceptively good did not know by the looks even he can made a crack to the UP varsity team hehe that shows you persistence and willingness to play its not all about talent

[WIZARD]

Is this official?? seriously the last guy??!!!!

[Kings]

edit: Kings has confirmed that this is NOT the official selection.

Official selection

Hm, is Lee Hsueh Lin a better selection than Sam Daghles or Rony Fahed? I never like all tournament teams shackled by positions - shutting the door on much more deserving frontcourt players like Yi, Zaid Abbas, Vroman, etc.

I think its official... I notice, most of the time, Kings usually post official schedules, announcements and others stuffs about Chinese and Asian Basketball...

[icebreaker]

Is there a second mythical five to make the team?

[rocketstar47]

i think this is the right team
C-Haddadi
PF-Wang
SF-Nikkah
SG-Wright
PG-Fahed

[AlYuson]

I think they overlook pointguard Mehdi Kamrani of Iran, the assist leader in this year FIBA Asia...although that makes 3 iranians at the roster of Asiabasket all around team...

[M.I.07]

This is the stupidist thing i have ever seen.Where are the lebanese players.Where is mahdi kamarany?Where is zaid abbas? where is jianlian without jianlian china wouldnt have qualified for the quarterfinals?Also where is the uzbek referee of china's match he hit some good shots against lebanon in the semi's

[RAWAD]

The best lineup is:

C: Hamed haddadi(jian lian)
pf: Jackson vroman(wang zhizhi)
sf: Samad mohammad nikkah bahrami
sg: Rashim wright
pg: Rony fahed(mahdi kamrani)

[stuart]

Nothing we can do about the first team, but I would make the second team:

C: Jackson Vroman
F: Yi Jianlian
F: Zaid Abbas
G: Sam Daghles
G: Rony Fahed or Mahdi Kamrani

This 2nd team will kick the 1st team's ass
I would opt for Kamrani though

[Buran]

when was this all tournament team line-up announced? where is the url?
please provide a link for such posts

[fadiserhal]

I think this was a true silly choice for a PG position! We have seen much better players and much better performance! this guy is in his 5th participation and he's still with such low Average!

Hi Buran, you are correct, I checked with Kings and he double-checked his sources - this was an unofficial selection

[stuart]

Now that we've determined that it was an unofficial selection, who would be on your Asiabasket team?

First Team:
C: Hamed Haddadi
F: Jackson Vroman
F: Yi Jianlian
G: Samad Nikkhah Bahrami
G: Rasheim Wright

Second Team:
C: Wang Zhizhi
F: Zaid Abbas
F: Matt Freije
G: Sam Daghles
G: Mahdi Kamrani

Third Team:
C: Ha Seung-Jin (KOR)
F: Fadi El-Khatib
F: Anton Ponomarev (KAZ)
G: Lee Hsueh Lin (TPE)
G: Saad Abdulrahman Ali (QAT)

Was forced to put Seung-Jin on the third team because I needed a center... and I struggled to represent 5th place Taiwan, as the first two teams were dominated by the top-four teams - Iran, China, Jordan, and Lebanon. Rony Fahed didn't make the cut in this scenario.
