I have no problem with full time coach. But what is his performance. Has Japan improved? If not, good for Japanese fans not over reacting to the losses like us -

Yeah, that's the word - reps. Iskati needs reps just as PBA guys like Malonzo, Oftana, Adams, Newsome, others need more FIBA game reps so as to get used to the FIBA game atmosphere which is different from PBA game. These players need to get the feel of the FIBA game. That's why it is crucial that these players would be able to play for Gilas in the 5th & 6th windows for exposure. The thing is, the roles that these players would be doing with Gilas might be different from the roles that they play in their respective PBA teams, hence they need to adjust. And its a big adjustment actually.Originally posted by Rds View Post"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.

You are the one who brought up results in the first place. Stop giving false leads on the issue.Originally posted by zairex View Post
I pointed out Japan having good structure top to bottom a lot better than ours, can you really deny that? If you'll say otherwise then you're clearly stupid.
I already said despite the losses they still have a good structure, meaning a direction to improve. If your brain can't process that then there is no point talking with you.
Japan is losing to China and the other strong teams, yet they decimated us. So it just means they are facing better teams or they are not bringing their best team because they are already qualified and you saw someone like watanabe can play for them on the main tournaments.
I don't see a reason why they should be complaining when they are clearly better than us. You seriously think Japan can't beat up India and Saudi? The only teams we have beaten? lol even China destryoed Indonesia by some 50 points when Indonesia beat us hahaComment

Japan is top heavy. Without Yuta or Rui, they arent special. With those two Id think they're the favorite for best asian team.Comment

Well they away our top 2 players and we get a repeat of the Indonesia game.Originally posted by Sikatrix View PostComment

You the one that said, Japan beat us so your the one who brought up the result. Without analuzing we were a younger team and one PBA pro. While they have a Naturalized player, NBA player and B. League players. Should that make us underdogsOriginally posted by Juancho View Post
What structure, keep changing lineups every single windows for learning experience. But if we do it Pinoys go crazy stupid. Is that structure?
Compare China were thwy lost big so many times in this period. Yet we only loss to Lebanon on its hometown by 4. So who is better against top level competition.Comment

his turnovers were eyesore.Originally posted by Rds View Post
but with more practice and exhibition games, he'll get better as a playmaker in gilas.
still, i prefer a sure fire shooter who is as good or even a better passer in bolick.
especially if chris and kiefer are ur other pgs.Comment

For those of you active on Twitter, who should I follow for Gilas news?Comment

The big 3 of Quinito, Snow and Homer.Originally posted by sroth3839 View PostNever look too far ahead. You might stumble on a block right in front of you.Comment

Eh? Isn’t Quinito unpopular here and considered a PBA ass licker?Originally posted by NOiNU View PostComment

In so far as Gilas news/updates/developments/facts are concerned, Quinito Henson is good. In fact prior to the advent of internet, Quinito was already very resourceful in his info/facts about basketball players around the globe (in particular PBA imports). Quinito's downside is that his analysis or opinions are sometimes biased.Originally posted by sroth3839 View Post"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.

Henson is a good source for PH basketball news I follow him on twitter for that, but true he is biased towards the PBA and SBPOriginally posted by sroth3839 View PostComment

Enzo Flojo, he is a FIBA.com contributor. well connected and has some insider info but not based on tsismis unlike Homer and Snow. Ryan Alba a popular stats guy who offers analysis based on stats but oftentimes, his takes comes off as "My take is better than yours, because based on numbers". Same as his cohort Izeizeflo. Good takes most to the time, but these guys are reactionaries and really dont offer breaking news.Originally posted by sroth3839 View Post
Noli Eala and Charles Tiu are good follows and very insightful.
Heoball is my go to guy for korea-bound / korea based hoops, not necessarilty Gials news, but good source of info for Pinoy K-BallersComment

Yeah if you want news. Quinito is a good source. Sucking up to the PBA has its advantages.Comment
