It is like condoning Qatar's past and present actions of recruiting foreign mercenaries for basketball purposes.

Don't accused of loser's mentality. It is Indonesia not me for giving up their locals - for admitting that they can't develop their homegrowns. I...

Even if the Philippines or Indonesia had individuals who were there since childhood , the laws of the Philippines at least has no provision for them...

To reiterate, I am not against the Fotu's, the Maker's, the Deng's of basketball because they deserve it - they are genuinely there since their...

Yes, that is main priority.. But it doesn't mean they will just play basketball only for good.. What is the difference of Indonesia's doing to ours...

Then it simple, give up basketball if you don't have patience to develop homegrown players or recruiting Indo-Americans (which they already did).

^ Well if the country isn't attractive for natural migration (not basketball purposes) and the laws do not have a provision to adopt genuine...

There's nothing insular with I said. I even championed the rights of these of FSA's in UAAP and NCAA since it really helps to elevate the skill level...

When will draft combine will start? I don't think it will start within Olympic season (July - August) and FIBA Asia cup running in August also.....

Most guys here are ignoring my argument and sir Jamskie's argument here. We are leaning towards to the concept fair play here. We don't have any...

These guys are racing against time right now. The announcement for eligible players is next Friday. I hope the PBA waives the requirements, even for...

Anyway they have Blackwater to do that.. Just that Terrafirma is so good to do "tank" games.. Now Terrefirma is good at paper over Blackwater.. Maybe...

As discussed in this thread there were players in the past who sat out the college season preceding their draft - Shawn Kemp, Shawn Bradley, Thon...

Have you really read the article. It was Eric Thohir who openly stated that - the purpose is to find players from to beef up their team because they...

Unless MVP requires NLEX to be their Terrafirma the SMC group will always have a stranglehold on incoming top rookies in the PBA, MVP was powerless...

Even if Indonesia hired those African when they were 15 years old, it is still up to them to develop those players. If pinoys were not so insular in...

the world changing and being more integrated , intercontinental mix race local communities is actually a good thing. Of course driven by migration...

Too many "coulds" here plus you're also assuming that he can outplay these players and that doing so automatically merits getting drafted in the NBA....

All of us here are disagree dude.. But this is FIBA rules.. They implement it.. Even Quinito Henson has a numerous post on his Philstar's forum in...

Skipping the OQT and confirming to join the Asia cup, is an independent decision from who they send for whatever competition, NZ will still send...

I have to agree with Maccabeo's assessment. Sfairopoulos is a defensive-oriented coach who lacks a solid gameplan on offense. I think he is a good...

Nah.. MVP will not let that happen.. Anyway Kai playing in the PBA and joining PBA draft is very last option for him.. His skills is too much for...

Well Kai will have a good competition and very legit size wise competition in FIBA Asia cup this August.. As you post before, NZL might bring their...

San Mig has a succession plan for Junemar. When Kai is eligible to play for the PBA, San Mig will get him by hook or by crook. Unlike other bball...

Then history repeats itself - countries will recruit players with dubious nationality or links to the country he represents then FIBA will implement...

Some has this mentality: Eh Qatar pa lang naman at Indonesia ang gumagawa nyan eh. And Qatar with those Bosnian players hasn't really made any impact...
