So it will be Gilas vs Brazil in the semi finals, the game will be tomorrow at 8:30 pm. This is good because that will give Gilas a time to rest, and of course, we will continue to support the Gilas to win this game. As to the FIBA ranking, https://www.fiba.basketball/rankingmen...

Brazil is currently at 12, so it should not be a problem with Gilas because they beat the number 6 which is Latvia. The problem I see here is they might not be able to play Sotto due to the injury he suffered against Georgia, but let's wait on the development of that but I heard in the news that he was hospitalized.

Imagine how tough Brazil for Philippines since that team got 6 NBA players in rosters and so far they are doing good in the tournament so provably they will give a huge problem to our National team. But if they lessen up their turnovers then they can able to connect there 3 pts also their free throws then provably that they would have a great chance to defeat Brazil.

They need to show their energy just like what they do against Latvia since by that for sure we can see them kicking good and provably get more chance to advance next round. Gilas became more interesting and it gather lots of attention now in international scene so if they successfully surpass those challenges and get a spot on Paris Olympics then Philippines basketball program might get recognize in international scene. Also hopefully Kai will be available on their next game since Gilas need his presence inside the paint.

We will certainly miss his service but we proved that we are still a strong team as we almost beat Georgia.

Let's discuss the betting odds. https://www.oddschecker.com/olympics/basketball/olympic-basketball-mens/philippines-at-brazil/winner

Philippines is a heavy underdog, currently at x4. I think it would be interesting to know what you guys think about this. Would you still be confident on betting on the Philippines knowing Kai Sotto might not be able to play?

Of course I'll take that odds even if Kai Sotto will not be available. This is the semi finals, a very important game for Gilas, so it's just right to back them to win. And about being underdog, we were never a favorite in the last 2 games,  and yet we were able to compete and even surprise Latvia on the first game.  But wait a minute, we have some good news about the status of Kai.

Quote
Following a battery of tests, a source told me "x-rays and ultrasound taken on the ribs of Kai Sotto all turned out negative."

it's negative, so there's a chance that he'll be able to play, maybe some pain reliever, that would already make him available tomorrow.

WHoever will be the next opponent PH national sqaud already developed that Puso and laban mentality, we've seen how great the players shows even those young guns who only got some minutes to play they are all in playing for one goal, I'm hoping that they will continue improving and adopting how the international competition works and how they will suit themselves in any situation that they'll be going to face.

Moving to the semis means another tough contender who have that same intentions, OQT is almost at hand they just need to prepare harder to earn that spot.

Gilas will be facing powerhouse Brazil in the semi-finals, another tough opponent but with the confidence that the Gilas boys have now, i think they have a chance to beat Brazil though slim but the possibility of an upset is there.

Win or lose against Brazil tomorrow, we should applaud what the Gilas under coach Tim Cone have done this FIBA OQT.
With that upset win Vs. Latvia, I don't want to underestimate our team anymore.
That win might just be one win only, but that changes how I see our team now. Oh wait. They're being coached by one of the best coaches that we have right now in Tim Cone.

Right now, even a 1% chance of winning is already huge for our team. I also said that Latvia is a powerhouse team in Europe, but they lost. Anyway, let's support our team and whatever happens, I'll be proud with the achievements that Gilas got. Just a bit off-topic.

Did anybody saw how Bitadze tried to tie the game into overtime in the final seconds of the game so that they will have a chance of going to the semi-finals? What if that putback from him went in? Is that legal based on rules?

Yeah, i saw that. If that went in, the game could go into overtime as it is legal. But the way i saw it, even if that game went into overtime still they can't blew the Gilas away as they need 19 points in order for them to advance to the semi-finals. Idiotic but totally legal move by Gago Bitadze hehe.

I'm 2 out of 2 in betting for the Gilas team and will bet for them once again tomorrow whatever the handicap will be.

A bad start for the Gilas when they've been zero point and I think 16 points for Georgia. But as the 1st and 2nd quarter ended, I can say that it's still fine. They've managed to lower the lead into 6-8 points, and now Georgia is up by 12 points at the first half. Hopefully, the second half will be in favor of Gilas. Most of the threes are in and our boys need to strengthen their posture as these Georgian's are physically playing the game, well this is basketball and it's all physical and that's why they need to harden their postures. Hoping to see a positive and win for this game, <3 Gilas.

We are now in a one point lead a minute before the 3rd quarter ended, it's really a big time ball game for both JBL and Ramos they are fighting back and with Newsome, Tamayo and Fajardo helping in tighting the defense we might win the game or we might make it if Georgia will only win less than 18 points, I think if the squad will maintain this momentum it will be a surprising appearance for team PH making it to semis for the chance of OQT birth.
The Gilas will go to the semis. I have forgotten about the quotient points system and I was moved by those big men of Georgia that have been playing physically. But this is more painful to them, I'm not sure if they're going to face Montenegro which seems to be a harder team to beat. Whilst for Gilas, they will have to wait who's the winner of Brazil and Cameroon. But I guess whichever teams gets to the semis and will have to face Gilas, puso is the key, right?  Grin <3
Congrats again Pilipinas, everyone will have a goodnight sleep.

Perez is heat up on 4th quarter and he hit multiple 3s to go closer to Georgia. Now we can see that its totally over and its good if Gilas could able to defeat Georgia so that it will boost their confidence more in next round.

But guess the game ends still its so good to see how Gilas boys play against Georgia since early quarter is so heavy for them especially that they are been so buried so much.
committing turnovers and hit their free throws since in that areas they always got upset an upset.
It was Brownlee who energized them, it's just sad that Kai Sotto were not able to comeback in the game, hopefully he doesn't have a rib fracture. Anyway, though we lose but it's still a win for us as we are now advancing in the semi Finals.  What a game for CJ Perez too, he wasn't selfish, he made the right shot and he earn it.  The real hero here is Brownlee, because without him, Gilas would already lose by a huge margin.


Anyways congrats to Gilas they advance for next round so hopefully we can still see more good performance with them also they should avoid committing turnovers and hit their free throws since in that areas they always got upset an upset.

Yes, they will be in the semi finals. I heard that Latvia will face Brazil, which team will Philippines be facing next?

Not the kind of game I expected for Gilas to play. They came out flat in the 1st quarter, but fortunately, they were able to come back in the 2nd quarter, and the lead is now just 12 points by Georgia. I see it as a manageable lead, and I hope they'll be able to have a strong 3rd quarter so we will have an exciting game in the 4th.

tonight at 7pm, we will be seeing the Gilas to play with the Georgia, per bookie, we are currently at +6.5, I think I'll still go with the moneyline here.

It's actually 8:30 PM. I checked on the sportsbook and the line had dropped a bit, it's now +5.5 and the total is 158.5.

I'm confident that Gilas will win because Latvia had dominated this team, so we really have a huge chance and I see the line is quite undervalued so I took the moneyline instead.

Thanks for the correction. The game has already started just search in your facebook as there are plenty of free live streaming.

This is in, Kai should still continue is aggressiveness as we need to play harder even Georgia is of lower ranking compared the team that we beat.
Good luck to us and to Gilas, may tonight be full of winning bettors.  Grin

It's the Philippines x17 to win a.....

So did anyone able to hit the jackpot? I did but just a small bet, however on the handicap, it was too easy and I never felt the thrill watching the game as the Philippines have dominated a very good team. They were surprise and probably didn't have the system to beat the triangle offense of CTC.

Tonight, another try for Gilas to win and for them to advance in the semi finals. Based on what I read, win here and loss not more than 18 points, they'll automatically proceed in the semi.

GL Gilas Pilipinas, make us proud once again.

Congratulations again to our team and with this win, it ended the 64-year losing streak against European teams, and we already have a high chance of entering the semi-finals of OQT.

Wow, this is history and what a time to break that losing streak with Brownlee leading the squad. Fajardo and Sotto were milking the defense of the Latvian downlow as they were having a hard time defending the Gilas bigs. With this win, the Philippines is on the map again in terms of world basketball and they can't forget the name Brownlee who have done an awesome job in leading the Gilas boys both in Asia and in Europe.

I have put a few dollars for PH +21.5 @1.86 think that even if they lose, the game will be close but they exceeded my expectation hehe.

I didn't expect we will win that easily. What a game by Gilas, it their effort and the good ball movement that made it possible to win against the number 6 in the ranking. JB is just too good and good think Kai really showed up, I hope there were NBA scouts who watched that game, also, for Brownlee, I think he still has a chance to be in the NBA since he is really good, even better than an NBA player.
I'm surprised as well, I think majority of the fans were surprised with the result. Now, I know that Gilas is really capable of not just competing by winning  against any Europian team. I even think that it's possible we will qualify in the Olympics, at least that's the goal first and if we make it, let's discuss our chance of winning the gold.

Anyway, here's the news! Gilas won against Latvia top 6 team in the basketball power rankings. The defense of the Philippines was big! (Solid na solid) I thought Latvia would comeback in the 4th quarter, but it was unlikely because coach tim come knows what he's doing! its okay to get 24 second violation as long as Latvia didn't score. Brownlee also carried the team in scoring. He even made 4 point play, that was the I know Latvia can't comeback.
What an upset. Nobody expected it to happen. We know that there's a chance, but what are the chances. Cheesy

Our team held the lead all throughout the game. Started with an 8-0 lead and from there, the lead just ballooned out to double digits and at one point, it was more than 18 points already. Latvia tried to make a comeback, but it's too late for them already. I like the system of Coach Tim Cone and how he utilizes our bigs because he knows that the players of Latvia can't defend both of them that much. Fajardo and Sotto scored 11 and 18 points respectively. Of course, let's not forget Brownlee with an almost triple-double performance.

Key reasons that I know why the Gilas won is their interior defense that caused the Latvia to score more on threes. The problem is their threes isn't going in as well. They only shot 10/42 on the field which is awful. Anyway, here's the situation for Group A. LINK
Quote
LATVIA - Group A

🇱🇻 Latvia have qualified for the #FIBAOQT semi-finals
🇵🇭 The Philippines will qualify if they beat Georgia OR if they lose by 18 or less
🇬🇪 Georgia will qualify only if they beat the Philippines by 19 or more points
Congratulations again to our team and with this win, it ended the 64-year losing streak against European teams, and we already have a high chance of entering the semi-finals of OQT.
