NT Press Release:
Pilipinas beats Australia, 91-74

Team Pilipinas outscored Australia in the final quarter by 24 points to win their last game in the Group A round robin pool of the Asia Championship Tournament, 91-74. Dingdong Fornoles, Ramsey Paspe, Kidlat Celebria, and Guillermo Penasales scored at least 6 points each in the final quarter to secure the win.

Australia must have gotten inspiration from the 2016 Atlanta Falcons, dominating the game for 3 quarters before collapsing in epic fashion. “I’m thinking of getting the Australian coach a Matt Ryan jersey and Dann Quinn autograph,” Coach Lord Woody said after the match. The Panthers will close out Pool A undefeated, and will join Thailand, Malaysia, Iran, Taiwan, and South Korea in Pool D of the phase of the tournament. “I like our chances in this bracket. I honestly feel we can win at least four games, and maybe upset Taiwan and Malaysia. Maybe we can win all of our matches,” Coach Lord Woody continued.

The Panthers face 34th ranked Iran in their next match.

Our next Senior game is against Hanguk last time we faced them we lost on the road against a CT season 50 (56383)
obviously you were not coaching then and you had nothing to do with that loss. Just like to remind everyone thats how bad we were when we were ranked in the mid 40's.

To sustain our improvement we need more trainers some have even bought supporter to increase the training slots and extend to the second team. If you are already in touch with our coaches no need to reply. Im hoping we could get 3-5 more people heavily invested in training and development. Your training slots and draft picks are what we need. I know there are more trainers out there. Step up with us, its time.

Pilipinas NT Report:
Panthers stun Taiwan, 106-95

Dingdong Fornoles scored 39 points to lead the Pilipinas Panthers win against Taiwan, 106-95.

This was a pleasant surprise for the Filipinos, who outhustled the Taiwanese (+10 in rebounds, +4 in steals) throughout the match. “I came in and did my part. What’s important is we win all of our games so we can finish this round with no loss”, Fornoles said after the game.

With the victory against Taiwan, all that’s left now for the Panthers is to win against Malaysia. “I really think we can do it, but I wouldn’t want to be complacent. We still have to face South Korea and Thailand”, Coach Lord Woody said in a text message. “That being said, I am happy with what we’ve accomplished. We have a shot in sweeping this round, and hopefully face Indonesia in the cross-over semifinals.”

When asked to comment about Indonesia’s run, Coach Lord Woody said “Well, we won against them last time, so look forward to meeting them in the next round.”

NT Press Release:
Pilipinas trounces Korea, 111-70

Gabriel Hosillos led six players in double-figures, as Team Pilipinas made quick work of Korea, 111-70.

The Panthers pounced on a hapless Korean squad in the first half, 59-25. GM-Perpete, the Korean coach, must have forgotten to plug the controller in the first half. The match was closely fought during the second half, with Team Pilipinas outscoring Korea, 52-45.

“I am happy with how we played against Korea, but I am more focused on our matchup against Malaysia. That, to me, is our objective.” Coach Lord Woody said during the post-game news conference. He is right – a win against Malaysia gives the Panthers a huge chance in sweeping this round.

The Panthers are set to take two days off for some rest and recreation at the Loreland Farm Resort in Antipolo.

NT Press Release
Panthers beat Malaysia, 73-48

In what was supposed to be a close match, the Pilipinas Panthers instead made quick work of the Malaysians, limiting them to 20% field goal shooting.

Prudence Oton had another career game, leading the Panthers with 28 points. His total point output was more than Malaysia’s total score by the end of the first half.

Malaysia’s poor shooting is as atrocious as the Minneapolis Lakers, who finished the game with 20% field goal shooting against the Fort Wayne Pistons in November 17, 1951. Rumor has it that Malaysia’s star guard, Raymond Asmara, channeled the spirits of Kenyon Martin and Tim Hardaway, finishing the game with a forgettable 2 points in 36 minutes. He shot 1 of 24 from the field.

With the win, the Panthers now have an almost clear path to sweep this round. All that’s left is for the Philippines to win against Thailand.

NT Press Release:
Pilipinas beats Ghana, 127-73

The Pilipinas Panthers begin their campaign in the Season 54 Repechage with a 127-73 thumping of Ghana.

Bigman Royce Cardino must have watched a DeAndre Ayton mixtape before the game, leading the Panthers with an impressive 20 points, 16 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 blocks in 30 minutes of action. “We are preparing for a close match against Chile, so this win is important to us,” Cardino said during the press conference. “Chile won against Italy, but it appears their players were too exhausted after the game. I think we will have our chance on Monday,” Coach Lord Woody said during the post-game interview.

Eight of the ten Pilipinas players fielded scored in double figures, and the expectation is the same balanced attack will lead to another Pilipinas victory against the La Roja on Monday.
