China
Iran
Jordan
Philippines
well, that could happen. but i don't think china is the strongest team in group a, i'll give jordan that distinction. for Team Pilipinas, we just have to believe that we can make it. we just have to believe that we can win. let's put that so called, "pilipino pride" in good use, i want to see that never say die attitude. "Never give up!!!" that should be the motto of Team Pilipinas.Originally Posted by ryannaja
its a tough group but i go for:
Jordan 3-0
RP 2-1
China 1-2
Iran 0-3
LIVE ON PHILIPPINES!!!
NEW ORLEANS HORNETS 2008
Jordan is overrated The chinese and iranians are being underestimated
it can also be
3-0 china iran rp or jordan
2-1 anyone
1-2 anyone
0-3 anyone
this is really the group of death
agree, agree, agree, and yes agree with you there bro... anyone of them deserves a slot on the Quarters.
wow....good logic...how didn't i think of that.
SMART GILAS: all the way
veryobvious... Philippines will win in this POLL.
to be realistic Philippines is a sure 2nd Place in Group A. And could be Ist, depends on how they handle the JORdanians. I say they have a good chance beating R>WRIGHT and company so 3-0 is very possible...

no comment as well
(#23) lebanon vs (#65) RP
3 games this year (2007)
result
jones cup --- lebanon wins by buzzer beater three off the glass
manila invitational --- RP wins both games
2006 (2 games) lebanon loses both games
with the chinese sending basically the same team that played in manila invitationals, this group will become more interesting. it seems they will need a quotient system to determine who will advance.
speaking of Chinese..the CCTV 5 channel is airing the Jordan vs. China game right now..I'm watchin through Sopcast..with the help of Clark guy from the Phillippine forum, Jordan 35-China 30 at halftime
It's ironic to see limited efforts from players with maximum salary.
I wish they would apply "sabermetrics" in those financially challenged PBA teams to acquire players who are value for their money.

end of 3rd Qtr!
Jordan 60
China 49
Zaid Alkhas and Rasheim Wright doing most of the damage
Seems like China is not using its roster's full strength in this game

Jordan beat China quite easily 78-65 with Wright and Alkhas offensively just being too much for the highly dissapointing Chinese, who didn't really look like they were at least trying hard to win (no tactical fouls in the end etc.). Jordan quite impressive.
Totally agree with you. Jordan's the team to beat in the Olympic Qualifiers.
with this dominating win of Jordan, the game between RP and IRI is a must win for both teams.. Jordan seems invincible, and if they can't win today, they'll probably have only one win or worst nothing if they lose against China...
Impossible is Nothing!!!
KAPIT BAYAN!!!
you don't actually believe will lose to Iran, do you?!
Coz If that's the case and we lost to Iran then will end -up 0-3!
Because Iran and China in this Fiba-Asia is on some what the same level.
I say will end-up 3-0, depending on how hard we play against Jordan.
Looks like Jordan leave to its billing the favorites in the group
anything is possible bro.. Iran is a no push-over team...
Impossible is Nothing!!!
Its only 3 hours to go.
Kahit na ba tatlo 7 footer ng Iran, basta gumana lang ang outside shooting ng Pinas, It will draw out the electric posts out of the lane, then pwede na tayong mag penetrate.
Harass the guards so they will have a hard time giving the entry pass to those giants.
The suspense is killing me
Sweet as expected!
Lets chilax....w8 for our game. All of the game is a must win for us. If jordan defeated china we can do it too. It only means we are going to see the most dramatic come back of a team in history of World Basketball by being absent for a long time.

It's not who I am underneath but what I do that defines me... I'm the best there is the best there was and the best there it will be.
