Reyes wants Pingris on Japan-bound team

SMART Gilas 2.0 coach Chot Reyes said James Yap, Arwind Santos, Marcio Lassiter and the other players from San Miguel-owned teams are welcome to rejoin the national team program, although they have to go through the selection process like everybody else.

All except one: Marc Pingris.

“Pumunta lang s’ya sa practice, tatanggapin ko na s’ya,” said Reyes of the San Mig Coffee (formerly B-Meg) power forward. “He’s the one player I need most in the team right now.”

Pingris and San Mig teammate Yap as well as Santos, Lassiter and Alex Cabagnot of Petron were among the players from the three teams under the SMC umbrella who were dropped from Reyes’ original pool after refusing to sign a letter of commitment with the Gilas program.

Only one player from SMC, Ginebra’s Enrico Villanueva, remained in the pool.

That has left Reyes no choice but to fill his 14-man lineup with second- and third-choice players from the pool for the Jones Cup campaign, where Gilas 2.0 beat formidable odds to clinch the country’s fourth title in the Taipei event and first in 14 years.

From the five, Santos and Lassiter have gone on record to say they are eager to rejoin the Gilas pool in separate interviews with Spin.ph.

Reyes has kept the door open for the five SMC players to rejoin the national pool as he and his coaching staff deliberate on the final lineup for the Fiba Asia Cup in Japan. The deadline for the submission of the teams’ 12-man lineups is on Friday.

“They’re all welcome,” Reyes told Spin.ph after a round of golf at Wack Wack in Mandaluyong City. “All they have to do is sign the letter of commitment, show up for practice then we’ll see.

“They’ll be part of the pool. But just like everyone else, they have to earn their spot.”

However, Reyes said Santos, Yap, Cabagnot and Lassiter may find it hard to regain their places in the lineup for the Japan tournament considering most of the pool members who stepped up and filled their spots gave a good account of themselves in the Jones Cup campaign.

“Maraming nag-step up, players like (Larry) Fonacier, LA Tenorio and (Sol) Mercado. Take the case of Sol. Papaano mo isisingit sina Cabagnot at Jayson Castro ngayon e ang ganda ng nilaro ni Sol. Papaano mo sila isisingit ngayon? Sino tatanggalin mo?” Reyes said.

There is also the danger of messing up the team chemistry, Reyes said.

"It's very rare that a hastily assembled team comes together like the team in Taipei," the Gilas coach said. "Paano mo ngayon bubulabugin ang chemistry. Mamaya, maglalagay ka ng ibang players d'yan, magaling nga pero masisira naman ang chemistry ng team."

Reyes said the tough-as-nails Pingris is a different case, only because he was the type of player Gilas needed – and missed – in Taipei.

“When Pingris backed out, his place was supposed to be taken by Japeth (Aguilar) but he, too, begged off. So napunta kay Jay-R Reyes,” he said. “But we can really use a guy like Pingris (in Japan). He’s one player who can guard all positions except center.”

Reyes said he expects to make between three to four changes – “Maximum na ang apat,” he said – to the Jones Cup-winning team when he submits his lineup for the Fiba Asia Cup.

“We’ll sit down and talk about it today and tomorrow, look at the stats, review the performances (in Taipei) then come up with a decision by Thursday night,” Reyes said.

a BIG NO to Yap and Santos! These guys are laggy,nba-ish and will kill the ball.
We all know James Yap is a killer which is good. But he is inconsistent and needs more touches and playing time to be devastating and guys like him doesnt fit FIBA. Fonacier and Chan over Yap any day. We dont need a 'star player'.
No to Jay washington too if fans would post something related to him, wake up fans. lolers!
Lassiter and maybe pringris, or even cabagnot are the guys we need, for the pool.

At Alaska practice, Tenorio affirms commitments to Aces, national team
Rey Joble, InterAKTV · Thursday, August 30, 2012 · 8:20 am

Alaska guard LA Tenorio was surprised to hear about reports that he had been traded when InterAKTV called him up on Thursday morning — at Aces practice.

“Nasa Alaska pa ako,” Tenorio said. “I don’t know anything about a trade. As far as I know, I remain committed playing both for Alaska and the national team.”

Speculation about the trade reached fever pitch Wednesday night when veteran sports personality Ronnie Nathanielsz posted an unconfirmed report on Twitter that Tenorio had been traded by the Aces to Ginebra. Nathanielsz did not provide any source or quotes for his post.

Tenorio is coming off a sensational performance in the 34th William Jones Cup, where he won Most Valuable Player honors after helping the SMART-Gilas Pilipinas national team win the title.

His status with the Aces has been the subject of much speculation. According to Alaska team manager Joaqui Trillo, teams from the San Miguel Corporation and the MVP Group of Companies have sent him feelers about trading for Tenorio even before the Jones Cup.

For now, however, Tenorio is a member of the Aces.

“Andito nga ako sa ensayo ng Alaska. Twice a day ang ensayo namin, yung isa, early morning, 7 a.m.,” he said.

Tenorio added that he doesn’t know where the rumors started, but surmised that it may have something to do with his pronouncement that he wants to continue to suit up for SMART-Gilas, which will play in the FIBA Asia Cup in September in Japan.

“Hindi ko alam kung may kumikilos pailalim para sa trade,” said Tenorio. “Pero siguro kaya may lumalabas na ganyan dahil hindi nila ako mapigilan na maglaro pa rin sa national team. Kahit saan naman akong mapuntang team, ganoon pa rin ang magiging decision ko. Gusto ko pa ring maglaro sa SMART-Gilas, but at the same time, I will remain committed sa mother team ko sa PBA.”

i guess the trade rumors are not yet true, for now..

Blockbuster day!



Noli Eala ‏@NoliEala

Early start. Lots to do today. Been a crazy last 48hours and next 48 will be as frenetic. Morning everyone!



Noli Eala ‏@NoliEala

Pay attention and watch closely. Always stay 2 steps ahead. Opportunities, game-changing moments, dont come very often.
 
MVP & SBP = trying to put the philippines back in the map.
SMB = trying to foil whatever plans MVP/SBP has.


lols.haha.

Same thing here.

But wait, isn't stipulated in Tenorio's contract a clause that Tenorio can play for the national team when called upon & his PBA mother team can't prohibit him?
 
Thank you for sabotaging the Philippine national team
