Who is the world's most expensive U21?

No win but I think the team did really well.

Sigh... losses to Iran and Indonesia - not totally unexpected, but I did have hopes. Tied game after 3Q, and then outscored by 5.

I'm quietly confident about the next two games - Kazakhstan with the surprise walkover win over China has me thinking that something is fishy there about where they want to finish (I hate that kinda stuff), and next up Pakistan.

Keep those pops coming, and GS in order!!

Well... crap.

I missed a scrimmage opportunity through not paying attention (or close enough attention) to the game dates.
Ugh... I'm sorry all.

And that's that. We won the games we should have won, and lost those we should have lost.
Unfortunately, the gap between those two groups remained a little too large for us *this* season, and we'll finish just outside of the four.

Some good players sticking around for next season. We could have a pretty good team. Work those pops, guys!

Yessir.

But honestly, this was not our season. Our draw was always a little beyond us - even the most likely to win of the losses (Indonesia) where ranked nearly 40 places above us. I'm hopeful that the next season should be a little better...

Scrimmages from now on will mainly be 20yo guys, or younger. 21s... you're on the way out. Thanks for your service - g'luck with making the NT!

Two nights ago we played Sweden, and only ran our 20s - good win. Our bigs really controlled the boards, and we finished with a massive rebounding advantage. We have a good mix, and I'm expecting a better season next time around.

Soon, I'll be booting the 21s... so if you're thinking of selling one - now's the time to do it (whilst he still has the badge!). In a week or so, they're outties.
If anyone has a 18-20yo that they think should be on the roster, lemme know!

Nice... tho' allstar's about the limit I'll accept, and even then - only if there are spots available.

BUT... in all likelihood, I'll add him in the not too distant future.
