After having being defeated by Senegal, only 5th place can be achieved. I was confident that higher attitude would have been compensated the lack of GS, and in fact that was what exactly happened in terms of pure evaluation. However lower circulation added to an almost inexplicable -10 at rebounding made the difference in favour of Senegal. Unfortunately the MOTS of Tounes in first phase of the tournament will prevent us to run for a medal.

I am sorry for having missed my stretched goal. To complete this season we have just two matches and a mission to accomplish: at least 5th.

Better game shape than last week. At least we have more 8 and 9 GS, hope is enough to get the fifth place!

too late

5th is almost automatic, however we have to close better that in the previous mandate, so another W is the minimum.

I was really mad with Galvin's injury :(

you did a wonderful job Ebene. Your player were kept in great GS (apart of random, you cannot avoid it) and Galvin was "just" injured almost +3...

Hintse and others were treated in a silly way.

It was enough to be mathematically sure to fight just for the glory to have all players reaching the right minutes in the week

Last match of the season with Tounes is approaching, after it I will tell the "story of the season"

quite upset for today loss. for the second time, result does not reflect evaluations. However. 12/25 3pts made a lot of difference. I expected to outrebound them to compensate external attack, so m2m instead of 3-2. Result is a sad 6th place with 2 losses against Tounes against a target of 5th to 4th (stretched goal).

In next few days I will disclose my personal balanced scorecard. Meanwhile, I csn anticipate I am dissatisfied.

well it is a disappointment but not sure you could do better with the current team
some players are either good or just okay but overall the roster seems weak
I think the biggest flaw is the lack of a quality shooting guard

it is a precise analysis. Our big men are not great but passable (and we missed Galvin), guards are below par. Disappointment is because I was convinced to be able to do more (5th or 4th as said), although there was not much more to do (including dropped GS in the most critical moment of the season). But you know me enough to know that I aim as high as possible and .... well, am disappointed if I miss my goals.

Even if you failed your main goals, you couldn't do better. The roster is aging, the game shape was a problem all season long (except for Ebene's players) and as you already said we lack high level guards.

Anyway the results don't tell everything you've done this season: you first identified the problems of the NT roster and now you are trying to fix them. I'm really glad to be part of your staff.
