Originally posted by robert0326That was still their problem since last conference.. This conference, they lost 3 straight in a row, not just only against TNT (also against Magnolia and Meralco)... CTC has to realize that twin combo will not work this current generation... They won last 2020 because good spacing, as Japeth only legit big then the rest are forwards who can switch any from 2 - 4 spot...

Originally posted by IPC View PostGinebra was kinda fine offensively, actually. 45% from the field.
What's concerning is the defense. It's not just one game, it's been a theme this year. Even with their 3-guard lineups, they get burned. Late rotations, wide open opposing shooters. What's more is that Cone is willing to give up perimeter jumpers. Collapse the paint and whatnot. Plus, the personnel. Only Scottie's a good perimeter defender in the roster.
Honestly, for the record, I'm not against playing small. Brownlee and Arvin as the 3 and 4 is a FIBA-sized small-ball lineup, actually. Might improve the switchability of the team.

People here wants a tall line up which Ginebra did and when get burned or lost to 4 out offense and pinoy ball we get angry. Don't get it
Gilas gave up 16/40 (40%) threes to Indonesia while it gave up 11/32 (34%) to Thailand. That was terrible defense in the perimeter. Tim Cone is just damn lucky that his team was offensively overloaded.Last edited by ja.he; 02-20-2022, 09:42 AM.Attack

So, after the season's over, how does the PBA plan on selecting the EASL teams, especially since we have more than one tournament per regular season? Do we select the champions (TNT and Ginebra), or have a tournament from among the finalists (TNT, Ginebra, Magnolia, MERALCO)?

Originally posted by IPC View PostThe PBA should actually consider having two imports for the whole season, so teams could get used to that setup even if they're not in the EASL. Although I think there could be limitations on the second import. Mine is that they have to have played in the PBA for at least two conferences (which also should give them a chance to be in the permanent roster).Attack

Im not confident with TNT even with 2 imports (Hopefully they could tap T. Jones) and a prime mikey. Troy and Pogoy have a history of choking/sucking at intl tourneys.

Originally posted by CoJ View Postimagine if Pringle and Japeth will be healthy during the EASL, a lineup of a 7FT Import + Japeth + Brownlee + Pringle + LA with the bench crew of Cstan, Scottie, Chan, Caperal, Tolentino, Mariano and Pinto would be scary in the Asian level provided that they dont forget to defend the perimeter.

1 Big 4 small > 5 out offense.

Originally posted by robert0326It shows CTC's coaching is too old school.. while everyone in the world adopting modern basketball system, CTC still stuck to his old school Triangle system that is not effective nowadays... I love CTC and he's the greatest coach in PBA history but his coaching style will not work these days..
