00:11Communication is different. You need to attack from outside. This is how you contest.
00:16Deny! Deny!
00:243x3 basketball is 10 minutes basketball or 1st to 21.
00:28If we compare 3x3 to 5x5, 3x3 is like a 100 meters dash.
00:33So, because it's just 10 minutes, so a lot of things can change. Momentum can change within that 1-2
00:38minutes.
00:40In 3x3, it can go either way.
00:43Whichever team is willing to fight for every board usually comes up by the winner.
00:50We have a lot lined up this year. First up is Asia Cup.
00:56I think we are prepared.
01:00We have a slight hint of nervousness.
01:02But I mean, it's a competition at home. Nobody wants to disappoint anyone.
01:08We are the champions.
01:21Kind of looking forward to watching how the team plays against Japan.
01:24Because, Japan is one of the strongest teams in Asia and hopefully we can have a good fight against them.
01:29Welcome to the team, Singapore!
01:39All right, game time.
01:42Oh, look at that display.
01:45And Singapore, not much of a fight against Japan.
01:49Singapore is playing good.
01:50Japan has the advantage, clearly.
01:52Oh, it will finish officially.
01:5520-16.
01:57Hello!
02:00Juice ball from deep from Alpha.
02:04That shot will steal the hopes of Singapore, however.
02:09In the final few seconds, and that's it.
02:12And the Lion City, the last shot in Saipen.
02:15Singapore has been able to impose much offensively throughout this tournament.
02:20That cements this one in the books as a 16-12 quarterfinal win
02:25for China over Singapore.
02:27The home team is heading home.
02:30Nice to draw for Singapore.
02:44Tough losses.
02:46I cannot say nothing to my players.
02:48They really give a heart to this.
02:50And I'm quite sure that if we continue like this,
02:53it's just a matter of time when we're going to be on the podium
02:56on this kind of competitions.
03:00We need to lose this kind of game so that we learn how to win them next time.
03:05Go for it and this is your best way.
03:12I can't believe it.
03:22You can't believe it.
03:25You can't believe it.
03:27You can't believe it.
03:30It's a world.
03:31You can't believe it.
03:32We won't believe it.
03:33I can't believe it.
03:56Ten minutes on the clock we are off and running.
04:00Deronosa getting to it, active early in this one.
04:04Cechia start with the opening procession.
04:07Who are the more physically formidable team.
04:10Don't look now, a 12-10 game.
04:17Alfa does get a hell of a shot there with a twisting finish.
04:23Don't get it twisted, Cechia have come to play.
04:30Spectators on the edge of their seats right now.
04:34It's turned into a game, they double-teamed De La Rosa to no avail.
04:40The Philippines will stay alive, they bounce back with a 21-19 win over Singapore.
04:45A hard-fought game by Singapore to get back in it, but the Gilas would not be denied.
05:08Here we go, Jermaine!
05:12Okay.
05:14We throw good money.
05:18Matilda swings at Jermaine's.
05:20Can the home squad get some home cooking?
05:22Table, table, shelf, shelf.
05:26They can somehow hit a two here.
05:30Oh, smart play, quick move.
05:32That is exactly what Singapore needed.
05:38There's still life for Singapore.
05:41There is still life.
05:44Jermaine is so, so dead.
05:48We are even.
05:50Can you believe it?
05:52Gabriela, she needs to get a shot up.
05:55One second to go.
05:56What is Brazil doing?
06:00Our third overtime of the day, and I'm not sure what Brazil were thinking.
06:07They had plenty of time to get a shot off, and they don't do it.
06:16Here we go.
06:18First team to score two, and OT wins.
06:23Step back, two ball, no.
06:26Track down by Jermaine.
06:29Kicked over.
06:30One look is all they need, and they do not miss their chance to blow.
06:35Singapore!
06:38Singapore!
06:39In OT!
06:41The Lions are roaring with a stunner over Brazil!
06:50Unbelievable!
06:56Singapore, get the win!
07:04Game by game, we are showing the character that we are not giving up until the very end
07:11of the game.
07:11As you can see, like Brazil, there are signs much more.
07:13So we are trying to go with our speed, and of course, our shots.
07:17We didn't start as strong as we wanted to, but I'm happy that we eventually got back our momentum.
07:23This is a big win for us.
07:25Very proud of them, and now we need to stabilize because the competition is not over.
07:30Tomorrow is day of decision who is going to the World Cup, and we are still dreaming about
07:36that.
07:36We didn't stop with this.
07:48Brazil, a little bit sloppy with the ball here.
07:53What this game did relatively inconsequential for them.
07:59Zouan Yang.
08:00No.
08:02And that one just out of reach.
08:05Can they give this crowd something to cheer about?
08:08No.
08:12Markito final few ticks.
08:16He will score final officially 19-11.
08:2111 so our final four will be moving on to the qualification games
08:53Based on results, strictly based on results, I know even the high tests are performed below average
09:00It's a lot of things, we only showed effort, we didn't get to show the technical part
09:05I think we are missing out on experience as always
09:07But there's nothing else we can do from here except to improve
09:13You don't have to prove to nobody nothing
09:16You just need to be yourself, the best version of yourself
09:20But be truthful, is this your best?
09:24Is this your best?
09:25Is this your best?
09:27Is this your best?
09:28Is this your best?
09:29Your alpha
09:29Is this your best?
09:32So that's why we lose
09:33When you come and you give your best, you will not lose
09:37Understand?
09:39Let's recover from this
09:41Let's work hard
09:43What?
09:43What?
09:45What?
09:49What?
10:09What?
10:10What?
10:11What?
10:12What?
10:13What?
10:14What?
10:14What?
10:15All right, we are under way.
10:17I'm going to reach in there, but on the unfazed.
10:22Practicing our layups.
10:26Defensive breakdown for Hungary.
10:28And for Hungary, it's a sprint to three.
10:30They've got all the advantages.
10:33Mamma mia, she is fast.
10:36And under a minute to go.
10:38The two's got to start flying.
10:42And Hungary secured the first ticket to the World Cup.
10:47We will see them in Warsaw, Poland at the beginning of June.
10:51A brilliant performance from VB Berondi.
11:00Girls, girls, listen.
11:03We don't have much time now to think about this.
11:06Only thing you need to learn from this game is that.
11:11We didn't give 200%.
11:14You get one more chance.
11:16I'm expecting to die, die.
11:18Understand?
11:39Elsie-Forkman Chet
11:43They won't be the only One war we have.
11:53But the The Game Camp
11:55The Daddy-Fours Miguel
11:58Giant-Youre fucking
11:59têm one more chance.
12:00The Game Camp
12:00The Game Camp
12:01Where is Owen Bill
12:03The Game Camp
12:04Have a greatहeration
12:05My game Camp
12:05The Game Campケer
12:18All righty, the wait is over, here we go.
12:28Oh, Cacho drops the shoulder.
12:43Cacho gets it enrolled in Philippines, draw first blood.
12:56Tilda, we throw, it's not by this month.
13:02Tilda puts the pressure on the defense.
13:05Got you, got you.
13:09Sixty-eight.
13:12Step back, Jermaine.
13:15No.
13:17Travel call on Felix.
13:22Let's see what Singapore have left and there's any magic remaining.
13:31Philippines have done a good job defensively not fouling.
13:36Cacho down low.
13:38Levin in the game.
13:41And the defense needed.
13:43The dealers just want to rock.
13:45Silver medal at the Asia Cup, 40 seconds away from a ticket to Warsaw, Poland.
13:59Bernadino can put this game on ice.
14:04And it is Bernadino putting it on ice.
14:08Hello, hello.
14:09And hello, Poland.
14:12Philippines will be represented at the World Cup as they get the last women's ticket available.
14:19Top in Singapore from OCBC Square.
14:35It's tough.
14:37I know that we can make it, but I don't know where we're going to show up, where we're not
14:45going to show up.
14:48I mean, I always try to be honest with them.
14:51When it's good, it's good.
14:52When it's not good, it's not good.
14:53And today, I don't think the energy was the highest level what we can have it.
14:59And that's the relief-based things to play basketball.
15:04And this is, we need to work on this.
15:07I also tell them that that was a good thing.
15:10Every win, every success is a huge thing.
15:13So we need to move forward, work hard.
