Gilas Can Not Lose To Japan!

This is the must-win game of all must win games.

If Gilas beats Japan, all possible win-loss combinations have them safely making the semifinal round.

If Gilas loses to Japan, they would be eliminated in about half of the win-loss combinations, with the top four being composed of Korea (sure) Jordan (win over Gilas), Japan (win over Gilas) Taiwan (superior record with a win over Korea) or Iran (superior record with a win over Jordan).

That being said, the boys should be pumped up and ready to go to battle later.

Go Gilas!
