Philippines Senior National Team Thread Vol. V

Yeah, he looks slimmer and faster, although the speed is more north to south. He moves more fluidly now, though.

Naveen Ganglani says that Quiambao does move like a guard, though: https://twitter.com/naveenganglani/s...YNLr2oQYA&s=19

This is good. Another thing to watch out for this UAAP season.

Quiambao is listed as 203 cms which is around 6-foot-8, but I think he's only anywhere between 6-5 to 6-6. Still a good size combo forward. And he's only 22 so he still has plenty of room for improvement. The key here is further improving his 3-pt shooting & defense. He could be another Ranidel Deocampo type of a talent for Gilas.

Yeah, just improve his perimeter defense and shooting. He's already working on his handle. Just work on the two, and he can be a viable 3, or even a tweener if the situation calls for it.

Honestly, versatile tweeners should be the rule among our good bigs if we want to consider them for Gilas, especially considering that most bigs are 6'6"-6'8" and not June Mar sized. Shooting and/or (especially) ability to defend the perimeter is crucial.

I said realistic. My dream line up is different from what I mentioned which is realistic. The PBA wants to impose its presence, unfortunately. So, they would want their "best" players included. I don't want the PBA represented but I am not the SBP which exists to be molested by the PBA.

again, realistic, factoring in the PBA's bullying style of being epal. haha

note the phrase "PBA's need to have pogi points" so they will force the coaches to pick PBA players even if the PBA players have no business playing in FIBA tournaments.

After this WC, I really hope we lessen our reliance on the PBA. Most of the best Gilas options don't play there. After this WC, the only real losses will be Malonzo and Scottie.

Problem is, they want to impose their presence despite not having the commitment to do so. If they want to be present, commit to the NT and find ways of increasing profit while adjusting to the NT. If they can't commit, they should just fuck off.

That is why Tab was sacrificed because he proved that the PBA was not needed and actually detrimental to Philippine international basketball success. Tab winning with college kids and standing face-to-face with Serbia woke up a lot of Filipino fans to the stupidity of the PBA.

Kai, RJ, Heading, Dwight, Navarro, Balti, and Carl showed a lot of upside for FIBA play, more than most of their PBA counterparts. In the case of Kai, the only ones that are in his level are Japeth and June Mar. Dwight was leagues above his PBA counterparts at his position, same with Carl and Balti. Navarro proved to be our capable wing defender, and Heading shot very well. Ange did well anchoring our defense.

Plus, the only useful PBA players at the time were June Mar (this was before his poor window), Japeth, Bolick (he was still in the PBA), Perez (he was still a good prospect at the time), and Oftana. We didn't know Malonzo was eligible, Newsome hadn't been exempted, and we didn't know how Scottie's game would translate.

Kquiam height is almost as same as kenneth duremdes.. he is like a rich man glenn khobuntin

Continued discussion on eligibility from Cambodian SEAG thread ..


super big difference is development and academy residency comparable to pro league thst has an age minimum like the PBA ( 22 yrs old) or requirement to be a college graduate
as the essence of the U16 rule is to develop your Youth age players (Basketball heritage)
Residency as a pro adult 22 years and over is NOT homegrown developed but a finished product earning his income , super big difference
it's contrary to the purpose of what the U 16 rule is regulating

[DAdmiral]

JAWATO is a rare exceptional case , for every Jawato there are a dozen expempted approved cases with residency as a minor ( BTW Jawato spent time as a minor with his father in Indonesia, however short )

Diagne and Kane will get their exemption status by 2025... They start their residency since early 2020... Indonesian basketball future is bright, Bolden, DMX and Diagne are the pillars of Garuda basketball, The scary part is they are still young and will be core of their national team for 10 or more years....

no need for residency requirement if they were issued indonesia passport before age 16.

right sir dave?

They are not listed yet as local in FIBA portal status...

Yup , but not only that if you get your passport shortly after like 17 or 18 yrs old, (Gamber , Spencer, Zain , Fotu) you do not need years of residency, and pretty much immediate is exception..

Do note without a letter from Sec General and passport is over 16, you will initially get a classification as a NP, but not to worry as shortly after it is reclassified to local after the necessary papers and approval are processed

Robert simply relies on what he hears and reads in news to arrive with speculative assumptions on what he thinks the process is, without fully understanding the full context and each case details.

Curious when Michael Philips got his PH passport? He was already with DLSU in 2019, when he was 17.

Sorry, I can't stop talking about Mike Philips. I like the prospect of having him in Gilas uniform. He is an athletic 6'8 and with good nose for the ball (rebounds and rim protection). Maybe raw but can improve.

Maybe RDO is almost as tall as Japeth Aguilar as well

Kenneth Duremdes who was listed as 6-foot-3 may actually be only around a fraction of an inch above 6-foot-2. While Kevin Quiambao is at least 6-foot-5.
