honestly, Philippine basketball hasn't produce yet a PG in the same breath as "The Director", "The Flying A" and "Ra Ra Rah" for me those legends are the top 3 of the food chain
except for the "The Director" whom I don't think was schooled by the other PG of the other backyards and held his own out there
we all know what happened to to "The Flying A" and Ra Ra Rah esp. when they faced that cerebral fat PG of SK during those heart breaking Asian Games of 98 and 2002 respectively
Sir Dotch has a very rich information on that historic moments of 1997 to 2002 timeline
despite of that coach Go Johnny Be Good and coach Olsen occupies the top 3 of the best PG.
in fairness to "the Blur" he is a great PG as well no argument there but my standard why I pick those 3 was due to the fact that the "Game Plan" of both Coach Ron and Coach Tim at
that time has a lot of layers and sequence unto it compared to CCR's in-famous "Do or Die Offense" just gave the ball to Jayson Castro or Jordan Clarkson, it's "Come What May".
I totally agree that Wael and Yuki now occupies the best PG here in Asia alongside Guo Ailun
and currently we don't had a match-up on them
Scotty 2 Hotty(he is really a 2 guy) and the Blitz are not yet on that level
same with the Baby Beast, he is more of the "2" guy
PH Passport holder(?) Remy Martin is explosive and cerebral but still ineligible
even in the ranks of the UAAP and NCAA, I haven't seen that "Cerebral" thing of a PG
it will take time for Andy Gemao and Kiefer Alas if they had the X-factor moving forward
except for Dylan Harper and Vyc Miller , other hafu kids like JJ Mandaquit, Terrence Hill, Jr.,(?), Angelino Mark(?) and Pittsburgh Panthers Jaland Lowe
are all PH docs holder had that "precious quality" in a very young age but unfortunately, they are not yet in the PHI's database as far as FIBA portal are concern

If this is true, I think we already have a replacement for JMF already. Maybe Edu, because yeah, injuries.

Newsome would be too good as a defender against Yuki and Arakji hasnt faced newnew. Newsome over Yuki on offense would be too easy. Yuki had issues against pesky and bigger guards while in Yoko. Newsome is a very capable import stopper. Newsome should be in the upper tier as a PG in the asian scene. He was very effective last OQT against world level competition.

It would be a good watch on how Tim will counter the physical gift adavantage new zealand have, the differenc ewith the otehr intl teams is taht nz players play the right way but still there is no "special" talent on the tall balck that Asians team doesnt have..It will be a message sent to the asia pacific teams if somehow tim defeat this team convincingly..To becomes Asia's Best, we need to compete against the World's Best..
1 Big 4 small > 5 out offense.

Probably they magically altered the date of issue of his passport same as with how miraculously Malonzo all of a sudden became a passport holder at 16 years old despite old articles citing he secured it late at around 17 years old. But if QMB does gain that FIBA clearance it will open up for him possible stints in Taiwan and Japan.
And if QMB does become eligible Gilas could finally move on from Japeth and even Junemar.お元気ですか?

we can move on from Japeth. It is Junemar who we need for the rebounds and his strength. All the bigs we have left are basically finesse players. Even Europeans have a hard time containing Junemar. The space he takes up underneath the basket is irreplaceable right now. QMB has a high center of gravity while Junemar is pretty much grounded but he knows how to use his bulk to make space.sigpic

Homer Sayson claims he saw a copy of QMB's passport as a kid. His credentials are still in question though by the SBP and they want to check first with FIBA since QMB's issue is he didnt renew his passports.
