Gilas Pilipinas shoots for a breakthrough win against New Zealand and a chance for a less dangerous foe in the knockout stage. FIBAAsiaCup
The Philippines shoots for a breakthrough win against New Zealand and a chance for a less dangerous foe in the knockout stage of the FIBA Asia Cup when they lock horns on Sunday, July 17.
Clobbered twice by the Tall Blacks in the FIBA World Cup Asian Qualifiers this year, the Filipinos seek redemption as they look to land at second place in Group D. New Zealand and the Philippines are tied with 1-1 cards, with the winner likely to finish second in Group D and face the third seed in Group C, which will either be Kazakhstan or Syria, in the qualification to the quarterfinals.
The loser, on the other hand, will wind up at third and will tangle with the Group C second seed, which will either be Japan or Iran. Barring an upset from winless India , Lebanon is expected to top Group D and clinch the outright quarterfinal berth.
