SBP to blame.....their goal shouldnt be short term but long term....and they should also think about the best development of the players....Kai would have been better playing for the G League rather than playing in FIBA qualifying rounds.

But maybe for Kai and his Dad, playing for Gilas would be a morale-boosting for Kai as his confidence in his Ignite stint is getting low as he is playing behind Amir Johnson plus the signing of Donta Hall and expecting of limited playing time. We should stop in the blaming game and pagiging mas magaling kay Ervin Sotto(wala naman tayong ambag sa training ni Kai), (hanap nalang tayo ng matataas na babae na pwedeng lahian para makaproduce ng kasingtangkad ni Kai at itrain din natin tulad ng pagtrain ni Ervin Sotto kay Kai LOL!!, baka mas may magaling pa rito keysa kay Ervin Sotto)..Kai Sotto will still play in the NBA someday..

Kai's camp should have learned a lesson from Kobe's stint with Creighton if he trusted the process and stayed after his Freshman season. Minamadali kasi lagi

The problem is the overhype and the "superstar" status that comes with it. They wanted the minutes without actually earning it. Doesn't work that way in the next level.

Baka naman may alam ang EWP na di natin alam? Maybe some teams from the NBA assured EWP that they'll draft Kai so they did what they did. Baka sa huli, genuis pala sila, tayo ung katawa-tawa? #WishfulThinking

this counts as tampering right?
 
Thai pro team interested in Kai

THAILAND CAN ALSO BE A LANDING SPOT?

Chris Daleo, the head coach of the Thai national team and the Hi Tech club, openly tweeted his interest. The money won't be $35,000 a month rich like Ignite but the mentorship will be five-star and the playing minutes is similar to the Sotto family phone plan - unlimited.

Oh what a side trip that would be and I can already see the billboards.

Muay Kai is in The House.

Did SBP forced him to play?
 
Kai playing in Europe, or in Japan or in China or in Australia or even in the PBA would be fine for me. But playing in Thailand? A big NO! I won't even think of it. Kai won't gain anything from it except money.

I don't get why others are blaming SBP? With so many invited players not joining the Calamba bubble, Kai not joining it would be a non issue. Also he is just 18 and still too "soft" for Philippine basketball standards (how pinoys prefer to play the game). It's not like Gilas will live and die with Kai.

It seems to be a completely EWP blunder. 2 poor performances in scrimmages and they're scared s**t that Kai won't get drafted. They should have been patient as Kai grows in the 15 games of Ignite. He will get his touches as he and his teammates get to know each other. But they choose Gilas to impress the scouts with three games against Korea and Indonesia.

Can't blame others for breaking down with how emotionally invested they are with Kai's NBA journey.

PeeZones will be Anonymous 123 version 2 with the way things are going.

Di ako ako katulad mu na ang analysis walang kwenta. Kai and his family need to earn and you dont contribute to their expenses abroad. You dont blame them for entertaining every opportunity to earn a living.

Find 5 7'3 prospect who could move and as skilled as Kai. If Todd would be drafted, for sure Kai would also be drafted. Kai was paid twice than what Todd and kai was assess with higher upside. Ano tingin mo sa NBA scouts katulad mo magisip? KMART JR only played AAU ball and was drafted. Kai's drafting isn't dependent on those games but on his potential and upside. Walang magbabayad ng pera kay Kai kung wala yang kwentang player.

You dont compare him to previous prospects who failed. You could find thousands of Kobe, Parks, Japeth all over the world but you rarely find 7'3 as agile and skilled as Kai. Kaya yang mga rants mu walang kwenta. Keep it to yourself.
 
Kai gotta be a Shark now, he must continue forward... KAI must "PLAY" he must produce an "actual PRO 5v5 game setting" which scouts and devt. coach of (houston&spurs) can screen and evaluate if he really worth their "Project Player/Pick" this coming NBA DRAFT2021 (most likely) Aug/Sept.

Urgent question is, where should he be next?

easy answer would be this coming PBA Conference under them GILAS GUEST TEAM, this would run around APRIL to JULY and with 11 to 18 solidgames, hopefully it would suffice enough for an NBA Team to get and choose him as their project player...

Please argue sensibly and with civility. Respect each other's opinion. Avoid using foul language. And respond constructively to criticisms.

Thanks.

As if they been posting with decency, how could he say that kai's believer would breakdown. Was that proper?

His post and others here who always insist that it was just a marketing ploy that Kai played for gilas was really far from reality. The only reason Kai and EWP played for gilas was mainly because they will EARN FROM THAT STINT. Also, they have deep connections with SBP. To question their decision of earning is absurd, Kai is technically the bread winner of his family.
 
As Daleo said kai has unlimited potential. He will be drafted because of that tremendous upside. Problema sa iba dito mas marunong pa kaayu sa real experts and wala kayung bilib sa bata. Pagmay nagappreciate ng skils ni kai dito you ganged up on them. Pinoy nga naturingan CRAB naman.

Puro lang negativity and criticism wala namang naitulong.
