Indonesia 124-86 India


Almost 40+ win against India yeah! Thats very good for our team, now we have a 2-0 record, we are in the race for the semis. In our group Hong Kong beat Australia, now the kangaroos are with 0-2. In the next round, we will face off with China, probably the best team in the whole championshop. Lets fight against the lion! GoGo Indonesia!


And thanks to the owners for these really good game shapes, keep it up guys!

Well thanks for playing my player.
I'm not sure how much is the enth, but i was expecting a TIE ... so we can do a CT against one of the strong opponent.

Thanks for his great game shape I dont want to talk about the effort level tactics in a public forum, but if you want we can talk about it in pm

Nice game indeed.. keep it goin coach!

Cheerz!
Happy BB!

China 113-95 Indonesia


Loss against Chine, probably the best team in this championship. It wasnt an easy match for them, we won the first quarter, and in the 4th quarter at 5 minutes left it was only -8. Unfortunately our defensive tactic wasnt the best, but we had to try something against a much better team, man to man defense isnt good against a much better team. But this loss was in my calculation, so we are still fighting for the second place, two hard matches left, gogo let win them!


Please take care on the game shapes guys! In the last few weeks it was really good, but this week we had some problem with it. Keep it up gogo Indonesia!

Again I just don't understand why did you use the lousy 2/3 ,,, hmm

What would be your choice? Man to man defense is self killer against a way much better team, China used inside attack mor often than outside, therefore ive decided to use this. Plus our SF was injured, so for outside defense i had to put someone to the SF without any inside shot, and we would have weaker inside attack. In my view in that match we have to risk because the opponent was much better, finally it was a close match, but we lost it unfortunately

But as i mentioned, that loss was in my calculation, so we have to look forward, and win the next two matches, thats the most important.

China used inside attack mor often than outside, therefore ive decided to use this

Man to man always your best D when you're against a team that often change the lineup.

They were using 2 times Princeton & 3 times LI. Slightly more LI doesn't mean that they will use LI to face you. This is not math lesson. Gambling on what they will use on their tactic is risky.

I'm not saying you must win China, just worry that this kind of tactic selection will happen again on next game.

If we used man to man defense, we had lost this game too. Thats sure.

Thats much more complicated than u think.

China has the potential to beat our man to man defense on both sides, (but minimum 1 side) so if we played this, it would be 100% that their offense will beat our defense in outside or inside (maybe both). So if we wanted the chance to catch their offense, we had to choose between inside or outside defense.

Other thing: As i mentioned, our starting SF was injured. The outside man's game shape wasnt good enough to play outside offense with high efficiency ( and our inside offense is just better ). So it seemed the best to play inside offense, because thats our strongest offense. But our SF is injured... So what to do? Play inside offense with an SG or PG in SF, which is much weaker than a PF plays SF and play outside defense, or play inside offense and inside defense with a PF in SF, which is strong enough to beat their defense, and catch their offense if they play inside offense?

I think the 2. variation is more logic. Before our match China used inside offense more than outside. Thats a fact. So with this tactic we had the chance to beat a way much better team, if they play inside offense, which they used more often in the past.


There are a lot of reasons to play this or this tactic, but i think my veiw was logic, and with this tactic we had the biggest chance to make a surprise. Of course, after the match everyone can say : hey man they played princeton we had to use 3-2 zone. But you have think with my head BEFORE the match. See the game shapes, injuries, the opponents team, tactic etc. There is no tactic for 100% win, but you have to with the tactic with the most % to win.

I hope i was understandable Cheers.
