Philippines out of Asian Games
I thought the suspensions specifically covered qualifying for the World Cup?
Did the suspensions actually cover this tournament?

	It was their choice as they don't have good players

And really... who cares. Their best team will always be shit. They will only ever win meaningless comps (if they ever win anything) and I'd be surprised to ever see one of them in the NBA. If they hadn't gone nuts and then get let off easy by FIBA nobody here would give a rats arse what they were getting up to.

So do these games they miss count towards their suspensions?
If not, it seems a strange tactic?
Maybe just having a dummy spit?
 
  
	They have no depth so would rather withdraw than be embarrassed. Like I wrote above already.
 
  
	They are back in.. they are angry at the NBA though for not letting Jordan Clarkson play.. I say it is likely it was Jordan who did not want to play

Can you blame the NBA for not wanting their players to play? lol
