                    [Summary] => HO CHI MINH (Via Globe Telecom) — Whether it’s bad case of overconfidence or run of injuries to key players, the highly-regarded Philippine basketball team turned back a fighting Indonesian side to hack out a 75-70 win in the  22nd Southeast Asian Games here.

                    [Title] => RP cagers bow to lowly Kuwaitis
                    [Summary] => From worse to worst.


That’s where the Philippines has gone to in the Asian Basketball Confederation men’s basketball championship with a 66-79 loss to Kuwait yesterday guaranteeing the country’s worst showing in the 43-year history of the biennial meet.

With a second straight defeat in the consolation round, the best the Filipino cagers can target now is 13th place.

And that will only come if the Philippines beats Syria today. Otherwise, the RP squad will be relegated to a playoff for 15th place in this 16-nation event.
