New Zealand U21 104 - 81 Indonesia U21

Today we paid our debts to Crunch Time from previous game. New Zealand’s coach was wise and used his chance to win the game playing CT. This loss means not too much to us because New Zealand with this low enthusiasm won’t be able to beat Australia nor Praphet Tai so at the end there I expect to have triangle where points difference will decide on third place.

Please bear with me and keep your players in good shape

Cheers!

Prathet Thai 106 - 105 Indonesia

One more loss. This time against Prathet Thai and I have to say that the only advantage for our opponent was playing at home but it was more than enough according to the engine. They missed defense, GDP and they have a worse team but the engine decided to reward our hosts.

The idea was to take a risk and pump enthusiasm up so we can go and play against Australia and beat them up again but this loss was unexpected...

Also, I have to mention that we had to play without our standard small forward, Jordy Wong, who was injured and who we really missed this time...

The game goes on, we have two more matches to play in this round. Those will be very hard games and I would say that we are not without chances against Australia but will see what will happen. We are out of luck in this second round regardless we were prepared for it...


Cheers!

Australia U21 96 - 108 Indonesia U21 (63892)

Last week we won our first game in the second round of the competition. It was against Australia and it was a good showcase of how much we missed Jordie Wong in the previous match. He scored 23 points with a great shot percentage of 10 from 19 and had 7 assists.

Indonesia U21 65 - 109 China U21 (63894)

And today we lost against one of the best teams in the competition, China. We invested all our efforts but were too weak for them.

Even before the game against China, we didn't have any chance to advance to third place which brings qualifications for the World Championship. Some of you will say that I made a mistake when I went with Crunch Time against Taiwan in the first match of the second round. Ok, maybe you are right but that was our only chance to take second place in this hard group and I decided to try. I knew we can't beat Australia and China in two games in a row so I had to try to take Taiwan's place in the semi-finals because when I saw a group for this second round I knew China and Taiwan will take their places in the best 4 teams. It was all or nothing and this time we got nothing, but we will have another chance and hopefully more luck that time.

As I told you last season, I will keep your players on the team for a week or two so you can sell them for a bigger price if you want to put them on the transfer list and then will scout a new generation of Indonesian players.

Cheers!

Hi guys,

In just a few hours we are starting with a tournament for this season. I waited until the last moment to invite players for the first game. They were all scouted and then removed from the team to hide what players we have.

The first opponent is the national team of Colombia. They are strong, would say have more quality players than we do but we will try to make a surprise and to win even we play at their home court.

I hope to have great news for you tomorrow and if you have time, please support our boys. (In Serbia it will be 1.30 AM so I doubt I will watch the game).

Cheers!

It passed a while from my previous post so I will cover all three games we had this season...


Indonesia U21 92 - 105 Colombia U21

The first game in this year competition went bad for us. We hit their focus, but they were too strong for us and they had home court advantage.


Costa Rica U21 69 - 102 Indonesia U21

Game against Costa Rica was better. Again, focus was guessed and we had an easy win with a huge difference which is very important


Azerbaycan U21 88 - 111 Indonesia U21

And today we played against Azerbaycan. We guessed their focus and also a speed. We also invested less effort than they are and again had an easy win.

One of the problems is that we couldn't count on one of our the best players Yosyoppie Utama who suffered an injury and will be out for two weeks. Also, the second best player Tommy Putra Wirayuda is out of game shape and we hope he will be better next week when we will play against Lubnan. With a win against them, we will be in great position to advance in the next round of competition...

Thanks for reading and let me again invite you to join me and start writing here. Also, I am here for any questions, I will be glad to answer and resolve all doubts you maybe have!

Cheers!

Wooooow what a match!

Thanks to the manager kasep (50601) for the great organization of our match against Panama in the full greenmonster arena.

We were losing for a whole match, and then the match got tied at the very end of the 4th quarter. After that, we had to play 2 overtime periods and we WON at the end!

Panama U21 92 - 101 Indonesia

Again one of our best players suffered an injury during the match but the rest of the guys then took revenge for him and took a very important win.

The report from the previous match against Lubnan wasn't this good, we lost easily at their home. If you take a look at their ranking you would say they are an easy opponent but the roster says totally different as well as their previous matches.

We still do have theoretical chances to advance to the next round of the competition but it will be hard. We have matches against Hellas and France at their homes where we will be underdogs but we won't go there with a white flag!

Stay tuned and cheers for our guys.

Cheers!

Hello again,

I have to say I was quite dissaponted not reaching the next round of competition. We put all our effort to win the match against Greece but without success. They were too strong for us, unfortunately.

As I wrote on NT wall when I took this team can be seen again. We are somewhere in the middle by strength and we need a lot of luck to advance to later stages of competitions. This season we had matches we couldn’t win, they were in Greece and France so we could not afford to lose one more match except those two. Unfortunately, we played Lubnan at their court, and that one stopped us for advancing into the next round.

Now we are playing scrimmages, as every season, I will let 21 year old players in the team so you will be able to get more money if transfer list them.

If you need any help about training your players, do not hesitate to contact me,

Cheers!

Hey guys,

There is one player on TL that played for U21 this season and for sure will be a part of the U21 National team next season...
(49919130)

He needs to get passing training so if he fits your training plan and you have money - buy him. That way you will have our NT

Cheers!

Terima kasih kepada rekan LA saya, LA-sionk, untuk terjemahannya.

Saya sangat ingin mencoba membangunkan masyarakat Indonesia agar kita bisa merayakan piala tim nasional. Langkah pertama adalah menggunakan google translate (seperti sekarang) dan memiliki semua pesan saya dalam bahasa Inggris dan bahasa Indonesia. Langkah selanjutnya adalah membuat dokumen google dan membagikan keterampilan pemain kepada Anda, sehingga Anda dapat benar-benar melihat pemain apa yang kami miliki dan mengapa beberapa dari mereka diundang untuk bergabung dengan tim nasional, dan yang lainnya tidak...

Bersulang!

Thanks to my LA colleague, LA-sionk, for the translation.

I would really like to try to wake up the Indonesian community so we can then celebrate national team trophies. The first step will be to use google translate (like now) and have all my messages in both, English and Indonesian language. The next step will be to create a google document and to have player skills shared with you, so you can actually see what players we have and why some of them are invited to join the national team, and others not...

Cheers!
