How about those who were insisting that Kai should avg at least 10rebs per game to be considered NBA ready?hahaha

7'1 Marc Gasol and much heavier cant even avg 4rebs prior to turning 22 while 7'4 Wemby last year was averaging 3+ rebs per game.haha

The insistence that Kai is too far from Wemby and Chet really doesnt hold too much substance based on actuals stats. It is the innate biased by commenters that were so prominent. Both wemby and chet only had the opportunities and the hype with them.

To insist that those two acting like 7foot durants are sure thing NBA stars are all stupid. Even though the NBA is an easier league, both should need to hold their ground against wide bodied bigs of the NBA. I have seen Kai withstand the dirty tactics of the NBL and have stood his ground against 300lb behemoth Nathan Jawaii. Wemby/Chet will need to show that they will be okay after playing Zion and the NBA bigs.haha

Chet is nearer to a bust than anything these days. Wass will only need to give Kai opportunities and Kai will show his numbers and capabilities.

For sure Caffaro will be shelved in the oblivion forever and that is the greatest fact all these time Cocoy!haha

We will also wait for Kai to face Harris and NZ NT against Gilas.hahaha

Too bad scouts and coaches doesn't see that huh?

if Kai trained/transferred to europe around that age (or even younger) he would have been a nba level talent. mind you nba scouts monitor kids as early as 14-15 yrs old.

Some as early as 12. There are even occassional scouts here in the Philippines. Sadly, they haven't seen a talent they are looking for yet. Hopefully Kai's development would make him NBA ready when he reached his peak. As of right now, he is just too raw.
 
and Chet and Wemby are finished products?haha majority of rookies needs development.lol

true, Kai can go to Gilas and average 20ppg 35 mins and scouts won't bat an eye - until he improves on his fundamental deficiencies, he is liability to an NBA team

False. Kai has no liability to any NBA team haha.

Where is your proof that Kai needs to pay NBA teams right now.

You need to show us some hard facts and valid documents to prove that Kai has liability to NBA Teams haha

People my golly stop spreading your biased opinion and for the record Kai has no liability to any NBA teams hahaha.

I think you mistook:

Liability:

the state of being responsible for something, especially by law.


From

a person or thing whose presence or behavior is likely to cause embarrassment or put one at a disadvantage.

Maybe it's better to lock this thread... This is out of control already... Most of here still believe in Kai's abilities... It's already toxic in this thread...

Cant stop a discussion on our top homegrown prospect. Someone will just create a new thread. People already know anyway, behave or get banned.
 
Hahaha Kokoy and Juan has no sense of humor if they actually

think that I was serious and did not know what I was talking about or implying about the "liability" statement lol

I had the same intention or joke when RDO commented about Giannis statement that Gilas players were "dirty" and RDO answered in a serious manner

that they are clean because they always take a bath haha.

Anyway, at least I made you all laugh and had a good time.

To admin Sikatrix, I wasn't offended by them don't worry they did not just get my joke.

I don't get that some people hating Kai... this guy nice and good attitude... napaka Down to earth nung bata eh... If his attitude is someone like Belga or Abueva then i understand that... But his attitude is same as Junmar... Likable na bata and he's not lazy athlete like Kobe Paras... He's doing what he can do to be successful eh... Nakakaawa that some people laughing, hating and criticize him and i hate people who dissing Kai w/o reasons... But i'm sure if Gilas will pick players then i'm sure 100% (even Kokey) will pick unanimously Kai in the line up..

No one is hating Sotto. The outrageous, unbelievable and unrealistic projections by some posters on Kai are being criticized.

Nobody said he isn't. Nobody is questioning his attitude. It's the never ending comparisons, dissing other prospects, coaches etc that's being discussed
 
RJ, top scorer with 21 pts 8 assist and 4 steals. His coach letting him play Pinoy type of basketball. Hope he doesn't settle for 3 like hia last shot and drive to create opportunities for his teammate.
 
Balti getting no minutes again. Shoulda gone to a team which can guarantee him playing time.

Well, at least the B.League sked can consistently make him available for the NT for FIBA tournaments proper, and maybe windows. It's just a matter of him being called up.

pretty much sums up the general consensus regarding Kai, its the hype and the blind fanaticism that is being targeted/critiqued, not the kid himself. before Kai was compared to all time greats like Duncan, Yao, Gasol and Hakeem, then he was deemed better than Poku, Chet and now Wemby. Now Marc Gasol is the goal post. there's a reason why the kid is not drafted. Further, his current situation, the NBL, despite being benched is not bad!. He is being exposed to world level competition and hopefully now fully aware of what he needs to do. (those TSF trainings did more harm than good for his growth)

Sometimes its not bad to drink a little dose of reality and temper expectations. Luckily the kid doesnt lurk around IBN or he'll get a inflated ego with all those hyperboles
 
Thirdy with 10 assists in his last game. Hmmm.. didn't watch the game but question for those who watched. Was 3rdy playing the PG position? If 3rdy improves his shooting we might see him play as an import Europe. IMO
