As I've said several times, PBA still wants to have a place in the Gilas bandwagon, specially with Clarkson in tow. PBA still wants relevance with the FIBA game.

The 4 or 5 PBA players that will likely make it to the 2023 FIBA WC-bound Gilas would be the likes of Kiefer, Matt Wright, Pogoy, CJ Perez, Junmar Fajardo, Rosario.
If only Rayray Parks isn't besieged by a problem, I would consider him in the list over either Pogoy or Perez.
A wing combination of Jordan Clarkson, Dwight Ramos, Rayray Parks, Matt Wright, & either CJ Perez or Pogoy would be awesome."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

A special compromise will surely be made if the PBA bullies once again SBP, like majority of the cadets will be drafted, but owners will have no choice but to lend these draftees to the NT. So total picture will be 7 established PBA Stars (they want to have the majority number) + 3 Gilas Cadets ( but rights owned by PBA) + J.C. and Kai . Ange Koame in all likelihood will be left out if FIBA classifies him as a naturalized palyer. AJ Edu will be the odd man out, he'll be in limbo since he's neither a PBA player, a pro or a GILAS regular.

Gilas Pool Fight for Final 12 slot
Cadet Vs Pba
PG: Heading, 1GDL Vs Kiefer
SG: Dave, Javi, Bulanadi Vs Matthew Wright, RR Pogoy
SF: Dwight Ramos Vs Rayray
PF: Carl Tamayo Vs Troy
C: Kai, AJ, Ange Vs Junmar, Japeth
I guess it will look like this in 2023.
TALENT WISE, ex'cept the Big Man Center Position, Pba Players have an edge talent wise.
BUT if these pba players and the pba team they are being controlled REALLY WANTS TO HELP. I hope that
These pba players will be integrated in the program 1 YEAR FULL TIME.

TRANS: WE CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE A SAWSAW PERFORMANCE IN 2023 WC at home. Our Reputation is at risk

As I've said, PBA doesn't want to be left out of the Gilas bandwagon.
Lumalaki ang mga tenga ng top PBA officials & team owners every time they hear words like "CJ Perez, he plays for the San Miguel Beermen in the PBA which is Asia's 1st professional basketball league" from TV panelist covering Gilas games in a FIBA tournament."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.

Originally posted by JAMSKIE View PostRegardless, SBP wants to keep a harmonious relation with PBA as much as possible. Of course not saying SBP really has good relation with PBA.
You know like Sy, Gokomgwei, Razon, Ayala, Lucio Tan relationship with each other.
What do we call that? Something like "Frenemies". Hehe

Coach tab baldwin’s pick for his mythical 5 (for all filipino players he coached or seen):
Prime Paul Lee (over jimmy alapag, castro, kiefer, etc)
Prime Marcio Lassiter (elite shooter, solid defender)
Gabe Norwood/Jordan Clarkson
Japeth Aguilar
Junmar Fajardo
Surprised with the paul lee pick (he also picked him to take the last second shot over alapag/castro/romeo), but makes sense with paul lee’s skills and size as a defender. Proof that tab really takes defense as a big consideration when picking players.

But still, makes sense. As you said, defense is a huge consideration. Japeth's a good weakside defender and rim protector.
