Decent stats for Kai for his first season in the NBL, not sure though if this is enough to get him drafted

Yeah. Very Very Decent.

As I repeatedly say, No Fiba Eligible Pba Player Can Crack the rotation of Adelaide. Let Alone Contributing as a 6th/7th man in limited 15-20 mins.

Bigs like JMF and Japeth will be benched due to Even worse PNR defense than Kai.

I am not sure if our small pba guards can be given the greenlight in NBL Aus.

As for Nba, Let's see. Kai's NBL Journey is over for Now

The most important thing though is I am glad that Kai survive this physical league without getting injured. Thank God!
With the way they play in the NBL, it's hard to survive unscathed. There where times players tried to dive on Kai's legs, good thing for Kai is he is alert.


Like in this play, Munford tried to dive on Kai's leg twice and get an knee in the face and Kai falling on him instead. :)

So it might be an Aussie thing? Delly was notorious for diving on opponents legs so called going for the loose ball.

i agree with your assessment that our bigs will never be signed to the NBL or any other foreign league for that matter. But I think our guards like Bolick, Mikey, an injury free pringle, prime castro or even romeo could get minutes. Same with some of the Japayukis (not kobe of course he is not mentally tough to survive NBL's defense)

edit: naparaphrase ko si robert

I see only Parks, Mikey and Pringle might crack rotation in NBL (maybe as off the bench)... But if look how Baba played in his NBL stint (I think guys like Perez, Kiefer and Bolick can beat him), most of our guards can get playing time there...

Mikey and Pringle are both Fiba Ineligible. I said and meant only fiba eligible pba players. I agree both of them can play in NBL.

Parks def could. Especially during his prime. He was in G league for a reason.
But he is not a pba player for now.

Hmmm. Perez, Kief, and Bolick. Interesting.

Just Like I asked weeks ago. Are Mitch Mccarron and Tad Dufelmier Significantly better players than Perez, Kief, or Bolick? Or the other way around? Maybe same level???

But for Pba Local Bigs yeah. They will have trouble in NBL.

Well Mitch isn't exactly a superstar. He's an average starter at most. Perez and Bolick are MVP candidates in the PBA while Kiefer might be our best pure PG. It's tough to say since they're not exactly good shooters and relies mostly on going to the rim where it will be tougher in the NBL

Wasn't Castro supposed to play there? Then our guards can easily play there too, off the bench.

To be accurate Castro was recruited as a local, (not import , Singapore stingers could recruit Asians as locals). Heigima is example of wing (not PG) could not make rotation, while Baba is good example of Asian local who can. Note the MVP candidates Adams and Cotton are PGs , while top 6th man PG is Shea ili (team A for Australia or NZL level). Shows how hard it is too make rotation as a guard. (Wing puede pa)
So yes it will be tough for any eligible FIBA Asian perimeter player to make an NBL rotation. Chances are very low for PGs , better for wing defensive player like Baba, or Parks ?

As per Bell's statement reported by Sayson, Kai needs to declare /decide by April 24 (early entrant ) to enter draft. (Which is false , he's automatically entered)
 
Withdrawal process is only for those who declare , (make official early declare list )

June 1 is for US NCAA early declare Withdrawal
While
June 13 is for international early declare players

There is no such thing as a Withdrawal process for automatically eligible players

2 way players can make it there regardless of position imo. Again, the Castro example. Hiejima can't deal with physicality as per FIBA, and I think wings like Parks, Hontiveros, Danny S, Kelly Williams, can make it if they play the 2-3. For our point guards there's Romeo, Bolick, Kiefer, Tenorio, Helterbrand, Caguioa, etc. Not saying they're Team A level, just bench players. So on and so forth.

Remember both EWP situation (no show all star game in Manila ) and Ignite fall out..

I don't think it applies to Kai. The ASG in Manila wala siyang kinalaman dun. And the Ignite situation was just him forced to honor MVP's caprices. It's a blessing in disguise na rin that he was taken off of Ignite, because with his broken jumpshot and definitely 0 playing time, he would've been worse off there than if he played in the NBL and let time develop him better.

based on how I understand the article, I think the mistrust is not with kid but with the handlers, does kai have the same scenario?

Executives found the announcement that Kai graduation date had moved from 2020 to 2021 as dodgy. 2nd Bell's press release that Kai had to declare by Apeil 24 was dubious and nonsense

Lastly NBA front office were not impressed with the actions of EWP in the all star fiasco in exhibition game.

The track record isn't good.

LOL anong amnesia pinagsasabi mo? Ang pustahan natin kung madadraft o hindi, not the eligibility. Isa kang malaking tanga. Basta pag madraft si kai, ayoko na makita mga posts mo dito.

You should ask Astig. (Who insisted it be included in bet )

You're right , you did not bet, but you and the rest of the F4 mocked and made fun of the reality that Kai is automatically eligible, (do you want me to post all your remarks .claiming Kai needed to declare and isn't automatically eligible? ) yup conveniently forget..
 
^
As expected amnesia,
Really, you did not claim Kai is NOT automatically eligible, and believed Kai's camp that he had to declare entry ? Sige c, continue to make up stories and forget.. as expected

Yeah right, it's all for to see, sige continue lieing and try to convince everyone hear you never said he needed to declare (April 24). Tuloy mo yung excuse explanations..

pakita mo san? yung nag post ako about auto eligibility, pakita mo. Wala ka mapapakita kasi wala tungok. Basta pag nadraft si Kai, tangina mo dave, wag ka na susulpot dito :D

Tuloy mo lang... so you're not one of those who mocked me for citing Kai did not need to declare to enter , contrary to all the personalities claim that he needed to declare? (That's proof u laughed at automatically eligibility) Sige lang...make up excuses.
