IBN is still much better than any other forum out there. If we have some irrational & dumb people here, kunti lang naman sila & they don't command a good following here."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. Remember that howsoever you are played or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone, even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power, when you stand before God, you cannot say, 'But I was told by others to do thus,' or that virtue was not convenient at the time. This will not suffice." - King Baldwin IV -
Lolz. If IBN is moderated, that thread will cease to exist that moment it is created.Originally posted by JAMSKIE View PostComment

If the newly created Filipino Basketball League can draw involvement of among the biggest business tycoons in the country like the Sys, Gokongweis, Concepcions, Tans, Razons, & perhaps Ronald Mascarinas, & ma manage lang ng mabuti itong liga na to, I feel this new league will succeed.
I heard this league will include participation of foreign teams, then that is going to draw more interest from fans since we want Pinoy players competing with other nationalities rather than just Pinoy players competing among each other. I mean what's the point of a Pinoy team beating fellow Pinoy team?"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.

Fortis fortuna adiuvat is a Latin maxim, from what I remember. Still, you do have a point there.Originally posted by ccharmed View Post
Giving them an international flavor might better prepare them for international basketball. I've always believed that domestic leagues should prepare our players for international play.Comment

Also one spot for former FSA in each team will be a good ideaOriginally posted by robert0326"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.

The GDL's are not lost, actually. In fact, Juan's contract has a clause where he can go back to play for Gilas any time he's called up. I assume Javi will have the same clause inserted.Originally posted by ccharmed View Post
I agree with the Ateneo, UP, and La Salle part. They have bigger players who can potentially become serviceable guards for the national team. Ateneo and UP will willingly cooperate, but I dunno with La Salle. We only got Baltazar because his handler happens to be powerful in his home province.
Cone's not the best at adjustments, either. He just relies on pregame preparations. Plus, his defense is meant only for those who rely on the paint to score. Unfortunately, that won't fly in international ball, as outside shooting is a must, and teams that shoot well from 3 will burn that defense.Comment

Such kind of clause they will never get playing in the shitty league like the PBA, right?Originally posted by IPC View Post
Mabuti pa ang liga sa ibang bansa like the B-league, it is willing to allow a Pinoy player to play for the Phi national team, eh yung mismong liga natin na PBA, pahirapan para sa isang PBA player to play for Gilas, specially pag ang player is playing for an SMC team."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.

According to a 2015 Spin article, it can be agreed upon by the player and the team in a side contract. However, there are instances where the clause is not accepted by a mother team as a condition of employment.Originally posted by JAMSKIE View PostComment

Has Snow actually read the contract (I doubt it)? It came from Juan himself that he had it in his contract that he will be released to play for the National Team.Originally posted by robert0326Comment

Dwight Ramos, Thirdy Ravena and Matt Nieto vs. Dominicana's Liz and Solano.. The result could have been different..
Coach Tab: “Defensively, in the backcourt, we were exposed by the Dominican Republic -- and it wasn’t for lack of effort and it wasn’t for lack of training. It may be a question of guys size, strength, length and experience.”
“For size and length, obviously we missed Dwight Ramos. We’ve thought of an opportunity for Thirdy Ravena, who might have helped us. We missed Matt Nieto with his defensive presence and his leadership. I think that’s one area that we got exposed.”

At least Tab had a rude awakening, Im expecting that he would upgrade his PG pos and RJ wont may the cut till 2023.Comment

Snow said the exact opposite in his online show. He said that every player who went to Japan had a Gilas clause.Originally posted by robert0326Comment

Leagues like the ANBL and NZ NBL ( and i think B -league) are literally under the jurisdiction control of the National FIBA federation ( e.g. Basketball Australia), so typically in the past for the windows the leagues under the FIBA federation have mandatory breaks for representation. And the teams are restricted from disallowing them to be released.Comment
