Jokes aside I just looked at Vanguard's lineup and they're actually not very tall with the tallest at 6'5. Guard savvy UAAP teams would have done well against them as well i reckon.
Vanguard lost by 11 against the Taiwanese univ champion team. They played smallball as well with their star player basically playing a pinoy style game.

UP has a platoon of 6' 3" and above guys that are capable ballhandlers--Spencer, Murrel, Javi, Tungcab and Noah. It saddens me that Kobe isn't one of them despite being able to crack a Div 1 roster. I hope this is just a matter of nerves (he's been playing overeagerly since game 1) and not a true reflection of his ballhandling skills.Never look too far ahead. You might stumble on a block right in front of you.

Check out slomos of his dribbling. He doesnt lean into the ball when moving at high speed to naturally protect the ball with his body or his other arm. Even a high school defender can easily swat his dribble away. He is one of the worst uaap dribblers i've seen. I wont talk anymore about his passing incompetence as anonymous123 really likes him perhaps a bit too much.
Anyway, i havent described kobe's incompetence worse than other observers. The only reason i even bothered is that im amazed he is still basically nothing more than a high school player who can dunk. A 21 year old with high school abilities still.

Originally posted by ccharmed View PostUP is not ready for a championship run. A trustee, paras, cant be trusted with shooting decisions and has the ball control of a high school player. Kulang na kulang sa disiplinadong praktis sa dribbling at passing. Paras' very bad ball control and shooting control makes him the guy you bench in the last quarter. The rest cant be trusted with timely and reliable outside shooting, amd cant even be trusted to make foul throws.
Vanguard is unquestionably a mediocre team and the maroons cant even manhandle it. Malabo final 4 sa UP. Paglaruan lang ng ust midget ballers ang team na ito. Cant even defend well, and akhuetie has deteriorated, probably permanently, to 60 percent of his peak abilities. Rivero and jgdl, as the real go-to guys, are not good enough to help a team as bad as the maroons against a reliable team like ateneo. Walang disiplinadong set plays ang maroons.
Wala pang jgdl and ricci jan.

The aspiration and fantasy of uaap teams, like their fans, is to be competitive with nba teams.
To use the level of the teams playing in taiwan as a gauge is meaningless. It was already mentioned this vanguard team is not an ncaa div2 team. It is correct that the bullpups can even win against some of the teams in taiwan. The nu bulldogs have legit national players. Paras wont make it to a national team other than the favoritism route.
