Lebanon had faced a lot of problems and as u know we live now in a war and last year the same.
Our players faced some problems about joining to Lebanon's campaign before Asian champ.
And with all the problems lebanon got the second position .
Lebanon team and Korea NT didn't qualified for the Olympics directly but they'll have a second chances in the Pre-qualifier tournament next year.

Well done Iran. They are probably the most improved Asian country. Phillipines like basketball a lot but their results are not as good. I take it China sent their "B" team since 10th place is certainly too low for them. They'll host olympics and have automatic place.
