Why is it that everytime Panlilio is involved into something, U got this feeling na papalpak na naman?
I think he should really be removed from SBP. I think his inbolvement in Phi basketball is even more detrimental than coach Chot (Sorry for bringing up Chot once again. I just want to point out something)."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

If for instance mabigat sa PBA to take a 2-week break to give way to Gilas training & participation in the 2025 FIBA Asia Cup qualifying windows, then I suggest we go with a Gilas team composed mostly of B-league players plus Rhenz Abando & then reinforced it with Ginebra players (Thompson, Brownlee, Malonzo) & SMB players ( Junmar & CJ Perez) with Ginebra & SMB having no games in the PBA in that 2-week span where Gilas prepares & play in the window qualifiers. Kailangan lang ayusin ang schedules ng Ginebra & SMB.
I think this is doable.
B-league players: Kai, AJ Edu, Tamayo, Dwight Ramos, Jordan Heading, Parks (if he's still willing to play for Gilas) Kiefer, Thirdy."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.

So B.League and KBL players are out of equation now?
Plus in the same presscon, they were talking about a basketball summit. So thats probably PBA, UAAP, NCAA, maybe MPBL, maybe Chooks, maybe Delta.Last edited by Sikatrix; 10-09-2023, 11:05 AM.

I'm actually ticked off that Marcial had the balls to put on a smug face and gloat at how that team won in spite of (name all excuses mentioned). It's the sad part of his job to make the PBA look more awesome than it actually is, but it's hard to take anything away from them because a team of PBA players (except Kouame) that wasn't even Tim Cone's choice went home with an Asian games gold medal and partied like it was 1990.
Also, Vargas senile as ever, alluding to how much the PBA has "sacrificed" just to make the World Cup and Asian Games work; as if to say they're not changing a thing and even willing to do it without "talent outside the country" (definitely talking about those playing abroad). The league had already tried aligning with the FIBA calendar during Noli Eala's time, but two things happened: the PBA going back to the 3-conference bullshit when Eala left and FIBA changing their entire cycle starting 2017.
It's not rocket science. All the PBA has to do is schedule their off-seasons between early July until late September then plan their stupid 3-conference format from there. They'll never do that knowing they'll lose to both the UAAP and NCAA for venues (unless it's Ginebra playing, college games sell more tickets) and TV slots (bigger paying ads during college season) to start the PBA.

That’s a fact bro… if Mikey is a local in fiba, he will leave for Japan for sure, same with Cstand… but they can’t… You see almost all 1st round pick of PBA today are fiba ineligibles… because PBA teams know they were not leaving in the PBA anytime…

Or Lasalle or whoever wins UAAP
- we can get the top 2 spot with this team
- worst case we get 3rd spot.
- 6 3rd spot teams fight for the final 4 qualification.
- impossible we won't get in Fiba Asia cup 2025
OQT - best of the best

ideal pool is something like ...
point guards - robert bolick (let bygones be bygones), scottie thompson, jordan heading, rj abbarientos
shooting guards - dwight ramos, renz abando, bobby ray parks jr,
small forwards - calvin oftana, will navarro, jamie malonzo
power forwards + stretch fours - aj edu, carl tamayo, justine baltazar
centers - junmar fajardo, kai sotto, geo chiu (if only for the additional 6 fouls)
np - brownlee
for local exemption - kouame, ken tuffin, philips boys, luis villegas and kai balunggay
