Yeah, i'm not saying your tactical decision had any real impact on whether or not the game was particularly winnable, I just kinda scout what happened in losses first before wins, and saw the 2-3 in that one before the malaysia game. Additionally, that was also one of the more tough matchups, where you can learn a lot about what works against better teams and what struggles.
I would say that i think the injury to their starter would've made this a bit closer in man given i doubt that they had the depth at PG (their backup's Assists per minute elsewhere were more mediocre than what it was in this game).
