During the last weeks I had sadly not the time to write about our games in the consolation tournament, but I will do that now.


Game 6: Scotland - Montenegro 99 - 128 [2 - 4]

Against a superior team from Montenegro I was saving some enthusiam for the next game against Tunisia. During to shape trouble the guys who joined the team after the fourth and fifth game had to play and did their job at least in offence well.


Game 7: Scotland - Tunisia 80 - 90 [2 - 5]

This was the last game with realistic chances of winning. So we played will full enthusiam, but we were not able to equalize the homecourt advantage of Tunisia. This game showed me that we have serious problems if some keyplayers are in bad shape.


Game 8: Canada - Scotland 93 - 76 [2 - 6]

We played our last game with full enthusiam against a team of Canada which was already qualified for the next round and didn't make a surprising victory.

Summary

We had two victories and six losses in the consolation tournament. That result is okay compared to the european qualifiers, but there was a good chance for a third victory against Tunisia, so I'm not fully satisified.

Our development in world ranking is okay. Last season we dropped from 90 to 94 and this season we raised to 82 at the moment.

Special thanks go to the managers of the following players who had a good shape during the consolation tournament:
Lawrence, Foulis, MacInroy, Dove, Clement, Breslin, Luke, MacWhirr, MacLammond, MacNider

The game shape of the other players was not constant enough in my eyes. So I will keep that in mind if I'm elected for a second term.

Offseason

We will do some pratice games against teams at our level.


Morocco - Scotland 107 - 106

We lost the game despite leading nearly all the time in the last minutes of the fourth quarter. I was testing 3-2 zone defence and made some personal conclusions for the future.
