27th FIBA Asia Championship [Manila, Philippines, Aug 1-11]

[tonistork]

against team with tall frontline, pwede ng pagsabayin si Douthit at Aguilar at magslide sa 3 si DeOcampo, para mas matangkad tayo at mas may advantage sa rebounding battle.

Gilas Pilipinas shackles Qatar, keeps hopes alive for top spot in group stages

The Philippine national men’s basketball team put together another fine defensive performance to come away with an 80-70 victory on Tuesday at the Mall of Asia Arena.

But Gilas Pilipinas had to contend with a late threat from the Qataris, who cut a 23-point lead down to just nine points, 74-65, with just 2:11 remaining. But Gabe Norwood coming up with a pair of big defensive stops on naturalized star Jarvis Hayes as Qatar managed just five points, including a three-pointer at the buzzer, the rest of the way.

The victory kept the Filipinos’ hopes alive to finish on top of Group E. Their final placing after the group stages would still depend on Wednesday’s showdown between Chinese Taipei and Qatar and the Philippines final second round match against Hong Kong.

Like in the Philippines’ victory the previous day against Japan, Japeth Aguilar came in to spark a big run for the team. Gilas outscored Qatar, 25-7, to take a commanding 47-29 edge heading into halftime.

The Philippines led by as much as 23 points, 57-34, in the third quarter and still nursed a 19-point lead heading into the fourth quarter.

But Qatar slowly chipped away at the lead after Gilas naturalized player Marcus Douthit got hurt midway through the quarter. With the Philippines’ top center out, Qatar made a final push, before Gilas clamped down to hold on to the victory.

Douthit carried Gilas against Qatar’s taller frontline, finishing with 19 points and 14 rebounds, but was visibly hobbled by injury toward the end of the game. Aguilar added 14 points and seven rebounds for the Philippines, which won despite shooting just 29 percent from the three-point line.

Hayes finished with 17 points and 11 rebounds, but shot just 41 percent from the field. Erfan Ali Saeed added 13 points for Qatar, which struggled against the Philippine defense, managing to shoot just 39 percent, including a miserable 19 percent from beyond the arc.

With a lightweight opponent in Hong Kong scheduled for Gilas on Wednesday, the Filipinos can afford to rest some of its injured players in time for the knockout rounds, which will begin on Friday.

FIBA Asia Championship: Qatar defeats Chinese Taipei, gives Gilas Pilipinas clear shot at top seed

Qatar dealt Chinese Taipei its first loss of the tournament, 71-68, on Wednesday in a thriller at the Mall of Asia Arena that had major implications in the FIBA Asia Champions Cup playoffs.

With the victory, Qatar and Chinese Taipei finished tied at first place in Group E with a 4-1 win-loss record. The Philippines can forge a three-way tie for the top seed with a win in the evening over minnow Hong Kong.

If Gilas Pilipinas takes care of business, it will end up No. 1 in its group by virtue of better point differential.

Qatar could have chosen to intentionally lose the game to avoid an early quarterfinals date with Asian powerhouse China, but instead went all out for the victory against Chinese Taipei.

The two teams went toe-to-toe for most of the game, with Qatar nursing a slim one-point lead, 49-48, heading into the final period.

The Qataris still led by only a single point when they unleashed a 13-2 run to open up a 66-54 advantage. Chinese Taipei responded with a 14-2 spurt to tie the game with a minute remaining.

Daoud Mosa Daoud managed to stop the bleeding with a strong layup with 43 seconds left, giving Qatar a 70-68 edge. After forcing Tien Lei to miss a difficult fadeaway at the other end, Jarvis Hayes split his free throws to push the lead to three points.

Tsen Wen-Ting had a chance to send the game into, but missed the potential game-tying three-pointer with a second left.

Longtime Qatar star Yasseen Musa had a monster effort, finishing with 20 points and 19 rebounds. Daoud added

Naturalized center Quincy Davis led the way with 22 points and eight rebounds for Chinese Taipei. But the team’s other stars fired blanks, with Tien Lei and Tseng Wen-Ting combining for just seven points and Lin Chih-Chieh failing to score.
