[igorotski2]

And of course, you want me to say Fillipinos is the close second or the strongest. While some may argue as Lebs, Iran.... and so on. I firmly beleive this year is very OPEN! It is definitly everybodies games! And I am looking forward to it!

i agree with u

 

[Projectspeed2]

It will be anybody's ballgame. Good luck to all National Teams especially to my home country the Philippines.

yeah, we can't tell which team will qualify and win


may the FORCE be with Team Pilipinas

wat is this flag which country r u from taipen

I am from Hong Kong, China.
Born and raise here.

 

[igorotski2]

hey taipan, jus curious, which side will u be on at Asian championship? china or hong kong?

 

[taipan2]

this one is interesting:

for CHINA:

height is their main strength. they play more like a european team now, with more passing games and of course, more players in china now has the heft to keep up against bigmen of opposing team. but height will backfire on them. you see, if you have tall guards, you tend to dribble high, and dribbling high is prone to turnovers. ball-handling is china's main problem, since china focuses more on the program of its bigmen. chot reyes, already had his special game plan against china, so to my filipino compatriot, lets be optimistic. there is always a hope.

to be continued....

I really hope that everyone still have the same opinion as yours.
Just wonder if you ever follow team China recently?
their existing guard, Chen, who is listed 188 with lighting speed and supreme ball handling.
Another guard, Lui is listed 190, has been getting 5+ assist a game with little TO.
The only problem they have is the experience. They are both 18 years of age and plays for the China A team!

HK is not going to surprise anyone.
Since HK is part of China, and located
right at the southern tip of China.
When I am on the HK
side, I am also on the China side as well.

hmmmnnn RP NT not yet beat Kazakhstan for the last 9 years?
thats what I'm trying to point out that we shouldn't also ovelook Kazakhstan

No sir..... philippines beat kazakhstan during the 2005 FIBA champions cup in manila, that is our last win against them, because they beat us twice in the 2006 jones cup and once in the last FIBA champions cup in Iran........ hope we get our revenge against them in the coming FIBA qualifying championship in tokushima Japan this july

 

[vladski2]

Vladski,

To be honest, I don't know!
I guess most of the other nations have their strength and weakness.
Some nations play better with others. Japan really afraid of Mid. Eastern style of play. And Korea tends to play better with 120% effort when facing China. While China likes to play Japan and wants to beat the Sh!t out of them everytime(Sorry Japs).
BTW, China team B is not finalized yet! There are still many factors pending on the selection of team A players. Who will go to team B????? Who knows!

And of course, you want me to say Fillipinos is the close second or the strongest. While some may argue as Lebs, Iran.... and so on. I firmly beleive this year is very OPEN! It is definitly everybodies games! And I am looking forward to it!

I understand what you want to say.

And by the way, I am not expecting you to mention Philippines as the strongest among the contenders in Fiba qualifying in Japan. At least for the time being.

China and Philippines rivalry is the longest in Asian Basketball history. And Philippines is trying to revive that rivalry. I know that we have a lot of work to do before we can catch up to the quality of game China has. But who knows, we may take it by surprise. If not this coming Fiba Asia, may be in the years to come. If there's a will, there's a way.

re

re

Seo will not play for NT this year.
He is not in 23 roster.(cuz he had had relation with head coach.)

And..!!
Seo ride at back of Yao in 2002 Asian game?
When do you mean???
I've seen that game so many times but I can't know when do you mean.
(and one moment that i think similar situation is, when Seo lost his balance and trumbled over Yao, referee called Seo's foul.)

Anyone from S.Korea, is Seo Jang Hoon will still play for your NT? I remember this player riding at the back of Yao Ming in the 2002 Busan Asiad and yet no foul was called. That's why they won the gold because of bad officiating which favors the host team. Thats why being the host country really matters.

thanks for that info i tried to search the net and found out that RP NT beat Kazakhstan, which was represented by Tobol, via 88-67...

so its safe to say that we lost to Kazakhstan for 3 straight already?

i'll post my reply in filipino...

mga kababayan, di kaya'y nakakasama sa basketball program natin ang pagpopost ng mga articles at mga scouting reports tungkol sa national team natin?

ang sa akin lamang po, mas makabubuti kung low profile lang tayo. tingnan nyo yung south korea, taiwan, japan. wala silang masyadong publicity tapos pagdating sa laro, masosopresa na lng tayo.

napaka high profile ng RP team natin. nakakantyawan tayo ng mga taga ibang bansa kapag natatalo tayo kasi sobrang bilib tayo sa rp team at ang laki ng expectations natin.

we want our national team to be respected but we're doing more harm than good. a foreign scout wouldn't have to look that far to know who our best players are and how they play because we are practically telling them what to expect from a danny siegle or a mark caguioa. by now, every scout in asia knows that we are trying to emulate the phoenix sun's because our inside game is weak. for sure, they will exploit this. please post and reply sensibly and with consideration for our basketball program.

ngayon alam na nila na si renren streak shooter (babantayan na nila kagad para di mag-init) or taulava is really not that good inside (no double team on taulava, no open shooter to kick out to) or ranidel, raymundo or dela cruz are not much of a threat (they will concentrate guarding seigle and caguiao na lang). tapos pa, we are also making a habit of washing our dirty linen in public (ba't kelangan pa ibrought-up yung mga citizenship issues ni taulava at penissi?) or pinapaalam pa natin sa kanila na we are already cramming and desperado na ang coaching staff natin and we're trying to replace players. mas maganda pa nga kung naging 'secret weapon' si kelly or gabe, mabibigla na lng yung kalaban natin pagdating ng laro.

we are not helping, mga kaibigan. we haven't proven anything yet, so let's not assume we're the best team in asia and also assume that we're better that our national coaches...

peace po sa lahat

yeah, both of them might be small, but how bout china's shooting guards and wingmen? can they handle the ball well? can they play with ball pressure? china has a lot of big wing men. though size will be an advantage for them, i still see some weakness on individual game. i agree with you that both are still inexperience. anyway, we'll see this july if my analysis is true.

I don't think you can find out this July!
They are currently playing for the China A team and won't play you guys till the Olympics (If your nation qualified).

 

[taipan2]

For the mean time, please take a look of how Chen (no. 18, age 18) played last year vs. USA and Germany.

No, I didn't, we don't even boardcast HK balls here in HK.

Anyway, HK is not famous with BBall.

We are good at making money though (top financial centre in Asia after Tokyo)
