I actually agree on the score that in general, capable pros are better equipped for this stage than amateurs. This Gilas team is better than any collegiate team, talent-wise. And all of these guys are pros.Comment

40 teams playing in Pre OQT next month... this is more harder going to Olympics, since only winners of each groups will advance....Originally posted by DAdmiral View Post
In Asia, Syria will reportedly host Pre OQT event next month... However, Korea and Taiwan might beg off due to unstable condition inside Syria... Although they host previous qualifier games last year w/o any conflict... If Korea allowed to come to Syria next month, they will be overwhelming favorites.. If not, It will be free for all especially for KSA, Syria, Bahrain and Kazakhstan...
Lagos, Nigeria will host FIBA Pre OQT in Africa... Senegal, Tunisia and Nigeria will fight for a lone slot for Main OQT for Africa next month
In Americas, Buenos Aries will host Pre OQT in Americas zone... Argentina is easy favorites here...
In Europe, Turkey, Estonia and Poland will host Pre Olympic qualifier there... big names such as Turkey, Croatia, Czech Republic and Poland will fight for 2 spots for main OQT next year...

Maybe Gilas try to contact Korea as tune up opponent before going to China for pocket tourney there... Or Bay Area Dragons, Although injuries will be concern here... But they have 21 players from the pool... They need to use all...Originally posted by reamily View PostComment

This is a joke but the extra money media quest have will be given to tge ones who will give the roi.. thats tvj..and the prep games.. i do think they will use uaap teams again and their officials as acegolders for our delegates as if tgey can really be unboased with regards to the logistical aspect of the games..Originally posted by CoJ View Post

im all in for a mix composition of our lineup, i don't know if its only lip service but Chot said after the world cup for sea games and other lower competitions it will be the younger guys who will play, that is why in the national team thread i mentioned about NCC and how it became successful, yes that time basketball is totally different and it was handled by a dictator's crony but if it will be emulated today a big fund will be needed as the competition for the services of the young good players is stiffOriginally posted by IPC View PostComment

what happened to the planned Gilas trip to the US ? while watching the summer league i'm thinking if how the national team will fare against the summer league team or even against gleague and division 1 teams, i think these teams will be the best tune up partner to prepare for dominican republic and angola, gilas with clarkson and kai against these teams will be interestingComment

Bro, I think its just common for national teams (even cadet nat'l. teams) to play tune-up games or pocket tournaments during off-season of professional basketball leagues (which is during the months of July, August, September) even if malayo pa naman yung next FIBA tournament na paglalaruan nila. Isn't teams like China, Japan, Korea, Iran are doing that yearly?Originally posted by DAdmiral View Post
I remember that when Noli Eala was PBA Commissioner during the mid-2000's, when he changed the PBA calendar so as to synchronize it with the FIBA calendar, our national pool made up of the best players in tge PBA, played in tune-up games, & other international tournaments (like the Brunei Cup & Jones Cuo) during the PBA off-season. This even if there was no up coming FIBA tournament or other international tournaments."A king may move a man, a father may claim a son, but that man can also move himself, and only then does that man truly begin his own game. Remember that howsoever you are played or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone, even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power, when you stand before God, you cannot say, 'But I was told by others to do thus,' or that virtue was not convenient at the time. This will not suffice." - King Baldwin IVComment

All these talk about the Olympics is nothing different from the Kai NBA talk.
You guys seriously think we will qualify for the Olympics with Choke Reyes leading the team? LOL
Even if Kouame and JC will be considered locals, I doubt Choke will be able to bring us there.Comment
