Quinones is at it again.

Anderson can be dominant if the style of plays are likes of Chot’s DDO or Latin American style… but because he needs to follow the system of Djorkevic, his talent wasted… sometimes coaches has to adjust too… let Anderson do what he want since he is the best player for China… for sure gilas fans wants to see China fail for their Olympic purposes but this is also proving that not all European style of play are working… it’s all about the fitness to the system… JC might also get that same fate of Anderson if he will follow European system because he can’t use his talent to dominate… some says Anderson is only a role player in NBA but NBA is the highest level of basketball… example also, RHJ (tnt import) is just only a role player in his nba stint… but become a scorer in Jordan… the reason is their coach tell RHJ do what ever he wants…

Again, Slowmo does a lot of things decently but none excellently. He is not a scorer like JC. He is not a defensive stopper. He is a decent facilitator. But he doesn't really break down the defense so so he is best a secondary playmaker. He is not a plug and play player. You really need to study and have the team that can maximize him.

dr beats italy and with that goes our chances, was hoping that italy would go easy on us if they won today but now they will play with fire in their bellies vs gilas to avoid elimination

Aside from home team Gilas it seems AR15 is the crowd favourite…

DR wins… if Gilas wins today, they will automatically advance to the 2nd round… Italy vs Gilas will be virtual do or die game on Tuesday… they will likely challenge USA and Canada for top 2 spots from Americas for qualifying for Olympics next year…

Is Scottie and Kiefer has post moves by a guard? The main PG of Angola is only 5’6… they are obvious size advantage vs Dundao of Angola… coaching staff should maximise that size disadvantage of Angola PG… Or make JC switch w/ him, so that JC can score easily…

Gilas should not underestimate Dundao. Yes he is just 5”7” the shortest in this WC but no one can match his quickness…

Canada is beating Lebanon black and blue.

I really know that DR will be the top of group A… they beat no.4 ranked Argentina last February, the reason why Argentina not in the World Cup plus adding a NBA all star that can change their chances into high level since NBA players are really superior in FIBA level…

Bahamas are not involved here… so not valid… DR has a light schedule in 2nd round… they have a chance vs Jokic less Serbia and Puerto Rico… as long they will avoid USA in the QF…

bahamas has 3 of those so called nba players and they're all good ones

Looking solely on the box score, it seems like DR are outshooting the Italians in the 3pt department (44% for DR and 21% for italians). Feliz and KAT leading the charge btw. I am just scared that the Italian may recover their shooting...against us (yikes wag naman sana trans= I hope not)

KAT is on a mission. He once stated that his WC campaign is dedicated to his Dominican mother and other 5 family members who perished during pandemic due to Covid.

Bahamas is not depth as Dominican Rep. take their big 3 (Ayton, Hield, Gordon) out they are hapless.

Or he is using the WC as his market stock, he is in the trade rumors by his team in the NBA
