Philippines Senior National Team Thread Vol. V

[carmelo7]

Random Q but who does Thirdy pattern his game to? Westbrook or Kyrie?

I?m assuming Russ because they both wear jersey #0?

I wish he'll look at Marcus Smart instead, bulky guard, bit inconsistent outside shot & handles but a tough defender aka role player

Jevon Carter and Melton both wore the number 00 too. Both are more of defensive 2s than lead guards

Russ? including his fashion sense

i thought his outside "J" or lack thereof

hehe, including that too, all those bricks can create shelter for a third world country

What is important is that there are now a lot of available BIG players in all positions. The future teams will have an average height of 6'6-6'7 without reduced athleticism, quickness and shooting power. This never happened before.

We'll have more on the way.

6'5" Caelum Harris, 6'7" Alex Konov, 6'8" Seven Gagate, 6'8" Gab Demisana. Hope we can see more than that, though.

That Jordan game should be a template and a foundation for future iterations of the NT. A solid defensive team filled with players who are willing to hustle and defend. Then add others like shot creation, shooting, playmaking etc.

Ngl. From those. I can only see Caelum and Konov making the Senior National Team. Oh, and I will add Lopez.

Caelum - I think he is already being projected to be a Future Senior Gilas Mainstay. I mean, he was in the pool last time.

Lopez - Same with Caelum

Konov - Interesting. Are you guys already contented with his shooting in Batang Gilas? He can be a spot up shooter.

Wait. Mason and Femi too.

Mason - Good Offensive Player. Composed and Relaxed. Need to improve in defense.

Femi - I hope we can see him in Gilas uniform one day.

IMHO, Mason, factor in BBIQ, shooting and his big frame, is better than Caellum and Konov

I agree, for now at least. Though at their age group, we can't really tell for sure who will be better in the long run. These kids though has a lot of improving to do.

I'm actually more interested in Konov's defense and hustle more than his shooting. But still, couldn't hurt to have a 6'7" guy who can shoot and defend.

And crap, I forgot about Mason. Hope he improves in Ateneo, especially on D.

[BJ_Reloaded]

Guys those kids you mentioned are just a tip of the iceberg, I think come NBTC Global Games 2023, teams from east and west coast(?) may somehow parade some very promising kids, I hope those laddies had already secured(?) that PH Pass.

[reamily]

Bruiser forward..a backup pg is the team needs for 2023

[C2Hamm]

UAAP jrs will be back next year right? Im going to monitor how Domangcas is doing. should be a prospect if he recovered well from injury

What do you guys think about Konov Position?

Can he play the Wing Now in International Competition? Or he is just another Stretch Tall Big?

Mason is good on offense. Need to work on his defense.
