Then, on August this year they will go to China to participate in the tournament that they are preparing and aiming to win the FIBA Asia Championship, which if they win that tournament automatic they will be the one who will represent Asia in the FIBA World Championship next year.
Getting the title for the Nationals is not that easy as the Indonesians were very determined to win despite that they were out skills by the Filipino cagers. In the third quarter of the match the Indonesians keep the margin only down by three points before the RP team accelerate and never looked back giving them their largest margin at the end of the third quarter 91-54. In the start of the third quarter the Indonesians manage to have a run but the fire power of the RP team is unmathced closing the game with a 30 points margin over the Indonesians 68-98.
It was a balanced scoring ballgame for the RP squad each of the players scored atleast 7 points. Leading the way were the combination of Gabe Norwood, Jareed Dellinger, Cyrus Baguio and Mick Pennissi. The improvement of the team, the system and the way they play defense was noticed by the Indonesian coach much improved and the system are different compare to the last FIBA Asia qualifying tournament.
