Again a wild ride against Belgium.
Our SF was injured after 7 minutes and his back up, who was only set up as a test, had to play for the rest of the game. grml.
Nontheless, our team was strong and had a big lead during the game. Unfortunately only seconds before the end of the game, Belgium could tie it and the last shot from our side was a miss. So the dicission was postpone into the OT and Belgium could get the win by a thin margin -.-

Our biggest topic was the free throw shooting. We missed 17 shots! But I can assure you, the managers of the current NT players are training FT, so I expect better shooting in the future.

The tests for the starting line up for next season are still under way. It's now more or less clear which players will start and on which position. Yesterdays game against Switzerland showed again an impressive Säfen (6-7 3ptrs and 20 pts in Q3), but also that Sunesson, despite his low salary, has some impact as a SF.
The inside is currently dominated by three players. Behind them we have a couple of others, who will play according to the tactic.
We still miss a second guard who is on the same level as Säfen, but I hope during the next season, a second one will emerge. With that our line up should be finished and ready.

So, I'm almost through with my tactic and lin eup testing. One last test is left and I will run it next Monday. After that, hopefully we will have at least three different and effective options.

At the end of this week, I will post again the development of our players.

The test phase is over. The last game was against Canada and I tried Low Post as an offense.
We had a good FG% and the expected players scored. During the tests it was obvious, that we had some bigger defense problems. This is a topic which has to be improved. The offense was sometimes crazy or not understandable. As why Westerlund had more problems than Tjädermo, despite almost the same skills.

Yesterdays game was a great reminder that the ratings are garbage. According to the ratings, we lost with around 25 pts. But it were only 8 and because of the stop the clock.

Alot will depend on the schedule and opponents. With a good schedule, we should play a strong season. So let's hope for the best ;)

No more tests, so today was again a real run. Hit first and hit hard. We played against Slovenia and won 130:118.
According to the ratings we should lost, so we have a really funny team ;) Our three little boys scored 25+ pts each and old man Tjädermo had some fun as a back up.
We still have some spots which need improvement, but our team is on a good way. If everyone stays in good game shape and the younger ones receive their training, we could have a deep run this season. It will depend on the draws but the basis is there.

First game, first win, first CT against us.
Luxembourg tried to steal a victory from us. It was quite obviuos that they will try to CT us. Thanks to our home court advantage we managed to get the upper hand and finish 105:96. For a first game after the season break our team showed a strong performance and I hope we can keep this pace. I wouldn't be sad, if we can go through with a lot more victories

Next week we will visit Armenia. After that the next games will be drawn.

After two wins we have a good standing. Our next opponents are:

@ Wales - should be a win

vs. Indonesia - tough team, higher ranked than we are but we have the HCA

@ Macau - could be dangerous

vs. Slovenia - highest ranked opponent, very good and our luck, that we have the HCA

@ Greece - extremly tough game

vs. Aserbaidjan - should be a win


We don't have one of the most dangerous teams, but still some hard to play. A lot will depend on the game shape and tactic, but my target is the K.O. round.

Crap! OT loss against a patient I'm pretty p*ssed about this. HCA, exellent GS, the best possible outside team and still 46 pts from a 33y old SF. -.- This loss wasn't planed and brings the team in a more difficult position. With two stronger opponents left, we have to beat one of them now, no matter what...

We are back on track again. The next two games will show where we end up. The loss from last week is such a bother and makes it pretty hard. So let's hope for the best and a strong TU on friday...

What should I say? I set the best Line Up which was possible for this game. Our team played an impressive LI and had +16 rebounds. We injured the starting SG, fouled out 3 other starters and in the end Klavc shoot us out. The irony here is that the manager of Klavc (Aleksander) asked me several seasons ago how to train and use him...
The ratings are in our favor and prove once more that they are meaningless in BB. Even the HCA wasn't enough to pull out a win. Next week we face elimination against Greece. And they are unbeaten, what else!?

It was clear that Greece will go outside. So I went with a 3-2 line up. OD player at 1-3 and ID/SB bigs on 4 and 5. This left me with RnG AS an offense. Bitte even with more effort it was not enough to crack Greece. Every quarter was almost at the same level but as a sum, it was too much. Now we are two places behind the ko round. With our last home it is clear that the ko round is the main target.
