2024 FIBA Asia U18 Championship

Your calculation is wrong,on my calculator its 201 centimeters=6.594488 in per google measurement its 201 centimeters=6.59449,I'm within the parameters,while your calculations won't get you a job in NASA for sure,you will send the Space Plane Dream Chaser in a wide orbit.

Sir, its you that got it wrong. 6.5 feet means 6 and a half feet which is 6 feet & 6 inches as 1 foot is equivalent to 12 inches. Hence, 6.59449 is around 6 feet & 7 inches.

I think you think that 1 feet is equals to 10 inches hence you think that 6.5 feet is 6 feet & 5 inches.

It's like thinking that 1.5 hours is 1 hour & 50 minutes which is wrong as it is actually 1 hour & 30 minutes.

Omg. Smh.

Ano ba Naman kayo , here is the computation...1 inch is 2.54 cm

So 2.01 meters is 201 cm divide by 2.54cm that's equal to 79.1 inches , 79 divided by 12 inches for 1 feet, that's equal to 6 feet 7 inches

Yes, you're correct, and Sir Jamskie and I aren't wrong either. We simply explained how the Google converter translated centimeters to feet and inches.

 

[JAMSKIE2]

I think most posters here are familiar with player height measurements in feet/inches & it's equivalent in meters/centimeters.

194 cm is equivalent to around 6'4"
196 cm is around 6'5"
198 cm is around 6'6"
201 cm is around 6'7"
203 cm is 6'8"
205 cm is 6'9"
211 cm is around 7 feet

I think Amir just thought that 0.5 foot (or 1/2 foot) is equals to 5 inches. Perhaps he forgot that 1 foot is 12 inches & not 10 inches.

It's like the common mistake of some people who think that 1.5 hours is 1 hour & 50 minutes when in truth & in fact, it is 1 hour & 30 minutes.

 

[lem0nadi2]

So based on the recently ended training camp, lineup will be much likely:


1. Gemao
2. Medina
3. Burgos
4. Lorenzo
5. Esteban
6. Cabonilla
7. Ludovice
8. Manding
9. Esperanza
10. Jayden Jones
11. Kurl Figueroa
12. Gabriel Nepacena

​​​​I don't really know who are the last 2 players lol. Don't know what their position or height.

​​I just saw them tagged with coach Rob's post about the training camp.

Gone are Castillejos, Hunter, Santos? not sure.


This is not the official lineup, just the players who attended the training camp.

But it looks like an upgrade from the SEABA lineup though, the non-contributor / benchwarmer guys were replaced.

Looks like Jayden Jones was cut and Santos instead remained in the line up

It is much easier to simply divide the cm measure by 2.54 to get height in inches. Thus, kai is 220.4/2.54 which equals 86.77 or almost 7'2 and 3/4". Average world nt size is 2 meters or 200cm. 200cm is just about 6'6 and 3/4".

To convert inches to centimeters, multiply the inches by 2.54. Thus, 6'7" is 79 inches, or 200.66cm. Oh, a 5'6" person is 5.5 feet as 6 inches is half foot -- 6/12 -- in decimal terms.

(I think you can trust me on this: i have had over 60 units of higher math subjects a very long time ago when a peso factually still had value.)

Yes sir, I know.
I just emphasized that 0.5 foot is equivalent to 6 inches becoz I'm thinking that Amir probably thought/think that 0.5 foot is equals to 5 inches which is a common mistake naman of some people.

 

[Silent Killer2]

Batang gilas u18 team

1. Gemao
2. Manding
3. Burgos
4. Medina
5. Cabonilas
6. Esreban
7. Figueroa
8. Perez
9. Santos
10. Esperanza
11. Lorenzo
12. Ludovice

 

[lem0nadi2]

I guess I was wrong with Jones and Nepacena lol, not really familiar with Allen Perez.

 

[hmbopbaduwap2]

China vs. Dankook University of Korea tune up.

 

[Silent Killer2]

schedule of games

 

[sajubeads2]

I think Allen Perez is a 6-7 kid from Adamson

 

[ccharmed2]

Yes. Tumaneng is a 6'8 from new zealand. Adamson also has 6'7 project perez since last year. Their better scoring "big" last year was 6'3 sf carlo bonzalida.

How bansot coach seyer keeps missing young bigs with some skills is as amazing as a blind sighted man. Putting your friends' kids in the national team is a seyer coaching specialty.

Three big boys from adamson alone. It is simply impossible that other big schools didnt have usable bigs. Nu, feu and ust do not have high school bigs for u16 and u18???

The bigs from FEU are in the lineup already, Cabonillas and Burgos, though Pre was their main big star in that jrs team. In NU, I think this is where Kurl Figueroa enters, also in the lineup. As per UST, Esteban and Manding but Manding is more of like a wing.

The only thing I am not really amuse is the inclusion of Marc Esperanza, the 5'11 guy. I mean the guy was awful in that SEABA tournament. Besides, the team already have Andy (who will probably handles the ball 90% of the time lol), then there's Ludovice a stable back up PG.

I think his slot should of be given to a project big, like the recently cut Castillejos, or Prince Carino, the supposedly member of U17 WC team and will lead the U16 team next year.

 

[lem0nadi2]

I hope they would qualify for the U19 WC because it would open a lot of opportunity to a whole new set mixture of prospects from the U17 batch to this U18 batch.

Paul Diao and Edryn Morales with another 1 year of playing in the US could be a big improvement for them. Then we don't know if James Sanderson would be a big name by next year considering how fast he is getting D1 offers right now.

Then there's our locals who could pop out of nowhere like Carl Tamayo in that U19 team.

Given they are available, would be exciting.

Then there's the chemistry over talent ideology from the coach so, nevermind.

 

[ccharmed2]

No. What i was trying to say is that there are at least a hundred big schools in the philippines. And there are lots of talented players. Fajardo and slaughter started in visayan schools that most metro manilans dont even know about. I would say most are simply wasted because they were not discovered and trained better early enough. Ive travelled to many mindanao schools before, and i often saw some who played as good as uaap players.

The pbs should really have regional tryouts as most parents and players dont want to study in far manila. Like many filams actually. Yes i know that this is almost impossible as the pbs would rather be a client of the donated resources of the pba. But u16/u18 selections of luzon vs visayas vs mindanao is practical enough, and the triad of coaches can fairly select players to be coached by the designated nt coach.

To be fair to Perez, who stands a legitimate 6'7" with a 6'10" wingspan, he has shown significant improvement. Besides being more athletic than Tumaneng, the Fil-Italian kid can also shoot from the outside. I believe he was supposed to be included in the SEABA U18 team but got injured.
