Beijing Devastated by Playoff Elimination: The Beijing Express players and coaches held a closed-door meeting today after the club was eliminated from postseason contention.
"We just wanted to talk about the season and where we are right now and how we get to our ultimate goal," said a dejected Isra'il bin Yoonus. "We don't want to have this feeling next season."
Beijing last appeared in the postseason in 2050. This is their 3rd consecutive year missing the playoffs, and in total they have not advanced past the regular season 18 times in their 25 - year history. In the last 10 seasons, the Express have made the playoffs 3 times.
