Lost against Beirut who played with four players. They take on a hungry Cordoba squad this weekend. Not loving their chances in this one either.

Forfeited this week. Next week they take on Beirut. Not loving their chances but if they can somehow come up with a win to end the season that can go a long way in helping them out entering the playoffs.

Didn’t get to play this week but got the win against Mombasa because of a forfeit. That win can really come in handy when it comes to playoff seedings. Next week they take on Sana’a coming off their first win of the season. Game can go either way depending on who wants it more, should be a close one.

Finally got a win against Kashgar pulling away in the second half. Bad news is two out of three of their last opponents are Mombasa and Beirut. They’re going to have to give it all they have if they want to win again this season. I think they can manage at least 1 win if they play to the best of their capability.

Nothing positive to say here either. Give them some credit though for trying to keep this one close. Their offense was just not there though and they couldn’t get their shots to fall. Every time they made a run it seemed like Istanbul was able to quickly counter. Next week they take on Kashgar, one of these teams will win and if I had to make make a prediction I would say Suba has what it takes to get the win.

Need to find an answer on the offense ASAP. Disappointing performance on their behalf. 31 points across the course of the entire game is unacceptable unless it was an amazing defensive game which it wasn’t. Next week they play Istanbul and they will have no shot of winning if they play this poorly on offense again. There’s potential it just needs to be found and fast.

More or less the same squad from last season, they had a decent regular season but struggled defensively finishing close to last in points allowed per game. If they’ve been working this offseason though and have upped up their game then I stand corrected. But until we see what they’re capable of this time around, this is where they stand.
