I am proud to have you as our u21 coach. We competed, fell short. It happens. Takbo ka ulit, masyadong mahirap ang transition between u21 coaches. Besides, you are the best man for the job. Try to groom someone to be your assistant in the future. Para minimal lang ang learning curve. You need a second term para makita mo yung pinaghirapan mo.

Malas talaga tayo sa last chance ever since. Takbo ka ulit. Lets move forward, we still have the consolation round. Message mo ako pag may prospect i will train for you.

Salamat Obi. Matagal pa naman ang season, so hindi ko pa pinag-iisipan kung tatakbo ako ulit. Either way available naman ako para tumulong sa U21 at NT.

Salamat din ASH!

Kaya mo yan Coach, Good luck!
mas okay nga po kung tatakbo kayo ulit for U21.

Introducing a New Assistant Coach

Archfiend002 (55059) will handle the development of the 18 year old team. An active member of the forum, he developed Carlos Miguel Octaviano (38155686) who was a key member of the U21 team last season. Let us welcome Archfiend002!

Manuel Caritat Becomes the 15th Player of the Team

Averaging 7 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, Manuel Caritat (39709783) will add depth to the team unable to play some players due to game shape. Get a chance to watch him play on Tuesday, December 27, 2:30 AM against Al Jazair as we try to keep our world championship hopes alive.

Pilipinas U21 Use a Strong 4th Quarter to Overcome Al Jazair 94-80 (39962)

Despite being down 28-18 after the first quarter, Pilipinas fought back by slowly trimming the lead. Pilipinas finally got the lead after Clark hit a shot with 2 seconds left in the third. From that point onwards, Pilipinas never looked back, outscoring Al Jazair 28-16 in the fourth on their way to the victory.

Engelbert Nisperos (38956653) led the team with 20 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 blocks while Clark Lloyd (38955973) added 18 points in 23 minutes.

Unfortunately, Lietuva won their game against Brazil so they were able to qualify for the World Championship. In our case, we are sent to the consolation tournament with a record of 0-2. Having the best finish among Asian teams will give us the home court advantage in the tournament next season. For now, we focus on our next game against Indonesia on Monday, January 2, 2017, 6:30 PM.

Pano naging 0-2? Pasensya hehe

Siya ang default na record para sa lahat ng teams na hindi nakapasok sa second chance qualifiers (yun laban natin against Brazil, Lithuania at Algeria). Makikita sila sa standings na 0-2 record, 0 PD

Pilipinas U21 (1-2) Blows Out Indonesia U21 (0-3) 108-52 (40381)

Engelbert Nisperos (38956653) again led the team with 18 points, while Victor Perfecto Suarez (38956273) added a double double with 17 points and 13 rebounds. Manuel Caritat (39709783) finished with 7-8 shooting for 17 points after starting 0-3 from the field.

Pilipinas started well defensively, holding their opponents to 8 points in the opening quarter. However, their shots weren’t falling so they were only able to get 16 points. At the start of the second quarter, it seemed that Pilipinas easily cruise through a victory after a 8-0 run. But after a timeout from Indonesia, they countered with an 8-0 run of their own. From that point onwards things went back and forth until Pilipinas finished the half with a 7-2 run. Finally, Pilipinas was able to pull away in the third outscoring their opponents 29-16. By the fourth quarter, Pilipinas padded their PD through a 39-9 trashing.

Our next game will be against Việt Nam U21, which will be on Monday, January 9, 2017.

After all the games are done, Pilipinas moved from rank 61 to rank 34, leaving us just outside the top 32 teams which will move on to the knockout stage. Among Asian teams, we are second behind Nippon (2-1) and ahead of Australia with 56 PD vs 12 PD.
