Then their contracts only amount to what is given to PBA Rookies.
In the PBA even if there is supposed to be a Salary Cap, the teams are known to give under the table 2nd contracts to its player thus evading the BIR. This was revealed by Rene Hawkins and Jayvee Gayoso when other teams does not want to honor the 2nd contract Tanduay gave them. Then there is the money they could earn from the Gambling Syndicates.

Disgust and confusion reigns within the team. More than half of the team unused.
The team you all just saw play are heroes. They played for the country, in spite of all these.

Gilas is really only a 3 year program
The smart gilas program was really only going to serve us thru to the olympic qualifying stage and if lucky to the olympics...after that they are allowed to get themselves drafted in the pba. the salaries (or allowances) they receive now as part of gilas are in line with the rookie max pay of the pba.
thing is smart gilas was formed in 2009...comprised of the best amateur players (sans paul lee) at that time. problem with this is that they planned it to be a 3 year program, ending in 2012...with lutz and lassiter applying for this coming draft, we have to speculate that the gilas program is coming to an end a year earlier.
personally, the inclusion of pba players in the national team this late is an awful move..why not send an all-pro team instead? i would rather have this lineup for the national team: la tenorio, kelly williams, gabe norwood, japeth aguilar, marcus douthit, chris lutz, jimmy alapag, rabeh al-hussini, sonny thoss, jason castro, arwind santos, mick pennisi. the only advantage gilas has is their long time together...give those guys enough time to gel and they will surely compete against the best in asia. looking at the roster we have now for gilas, i'm not keeping my hopes up that we will qualify for the olympics nor the fiba worlds.

Have you been following Gilas? Can you see the BIG difference?
Have you seen how they play against other teams outside the Philippines?
Have you seen how brilliant their tactics are? how smart and good smart gilas players are?
Those pros are talented,yes,locally. But they really dont play good as a team even if we give them plenty of time to jell. They are not all born to fit an international type of game. And they have no good basketball IQ in terms of team play. They are just brilliant on 1-on-1 and against top Asian teams, they wont be that effective playing their game. Even Team USA cant gamble relying on their athleticism and strength.And not all American superstars fit in international type of game.
It would be better if they continue the national team-negotiate now with the PBA and the schools. I mean continuity. Not getting a new and much much younger batch of players(even younger than Gilas players were when they started). It would be better if those youngsters would be insert into the POOL instead of starting again from scratch.
The best way to fix the national team and competitiveness of Philippine basketball is by fixing the basketball calendar of our country.Its not in sync with the rest of the world.
and Gilas started last quarter of 2008.Darling it's better
Down where it's wetter
Take it from me.
