Filipino Players in Foreign Leagues

[jasper222]

No need to get butthurt my guy

I'm perfectly fine, don't worry. I'm just saying. Kung maka-react kasi ang iba dito, they feel like it's an attack to their person, because they're fully convinced that Kai doesn't have NBA talent. Which is why a couple of them are inactive whenever Kai has a good game, and some boost commentators opinions which are disproved after the game's result...hay buhay lol.

NBA teams aren't frothing at the mouth to sign a defensive liability centre who averages 5 & 4 in the NBL lol.

Even after the numbers you still say this? I thought I was the one with excuses.

Wow..how come the experts in this thread didn't look on this haha

How bout the 36ers greatest choke este coach don't know this?

They should know who's making their team win and who's making them the pabigat player haha

Maybe it's not the players but the coach...oops, I forgot it's sacrilege to mock coaches in IBN. They are the golden geese, the holy grail, and Kai Sotto supporters are all delusional, low IQ, and make clickbait titles on Youtube. Anthony Bennett was a glitch in the matrix.

I like the dream team of Admiral and Gideon in this thread lol

They sounds so you know haha I won't tell

I like the Stevy guy who posted the statistics

Which gives us an overall unbiased picture of the whole Adelaide roster/player's performance not just mere hearsay and opinion from the

dream team and dynamic duo of this thread haha

I think we can all agree that Kai is really relevant if Adelaide wants to win

Adelaide bigs right now Kai>Franks>Galloway>Acuoth>DJ>Harris

Sorry I'm so biased haha I put Harris last because I really hate small ball haha

DJ second to the last because he has no solid contribution on both ends of the floor

He's a liability on defense and average to below average offense currently

DJ can stay as a starter if he's averaging at least 25ppg to 30ppg to compensate/offset his mediocre defense

But he's not so he should start at the bench haha

[DAdmiral]

Be accurate with the context , it's not just CJ, it's littierally the whole NBA , NBL and Euro league industry that has made the assessment.

Jack White under contract was offered an NBA contract
Travers still under contract was drafted and invited to camp
Le Afa was under contract with Phoenix yet NZ offered him
Wetzell and Delaney were under contract yet a Euro team offered him a deal.
They are just a few , what's Kai's excuse for not getting a deal ? (He has the 36ers blessing to look at opportunities)

Isn't that the industry as whole arriving with a view on Kai, let's be honest.. it is what it is, there are no excuses or reasons why this has happened other than what the people in the industry think of Kai.

Oh BTW before people.misncontru what I just shared, this is not my opinion. (Please). This is litterarally the NBA , NBL, Euro executives speaking. They have spoken by their very actions

[coach cj]

The best indicator of defensive skill is honestly just eye test.

I'm sorry but Kai's defensive ability certainly doesn't pass the eye test.

On whose eye?

If it's going to be your eyes then I'm sorry but those eyes of yours only see

the you know lol

Serious answer all the NBA and NBL executives, include Euro .100 % guaranteed if Kai is better defense than Cleveland the defensive player of the year , then he would be the NBA today.. yes the eye test of people who decide

[coach cj]

NBA teams obviously agree that Kai is a trash defender at NBL level and would be BBQ chicken at NBA level hence all 30 NBA team snubbing Kai twice.

Ahhh those eyes haha

The eyes that had multiple NBA lottery draft bust lol

I have question though how come I have never seen you both posting the positive side on Kai Sotto in this thread

You only both post the negative and what had happen in the past, always repeating what everyone on this thread and

the whole world already knew haha

It's irrelevant anymore if you would like to have fun discussion bout Kai.

Why not post about Kai's current performance in his recent games?

Have you both seen the off the dribble penetration running skyhook bank shot of Kai Sotto lol?

[analyzed]

This could have been a constructive and sensible discussion if we were talking about reasonable things , such as Kai is a better defender than CJ, or in FIBA , with Gilas context he would be an anchor , or impact rim protector and really trouble for Asian level teams.
It becomes insensible when people start suggesting Kai is a better defender cause of some stat than the defensive player of the year .
I would get the rational of starting Kai instead of DJ (not meaning DJ will play less ), but from a combination point of view it has at least some merit..
But to say Kai is a good NBL level defender or best in even a top defender for the 36ers is totally off. (Ang layo). If one cannot see this , to be honest you lack basketball analysis

[analyzed]

Again confusing draft bust with Kai's situation of litterarally no NBA team invited him.
Totally different

How is not positive, when my avatar litterarally has Kai as the future of Gilas, and have openly said he will be the center piece of Gilas future..

It's just accurate positive!
Not the kind that is positive but so far from accuracy.
Kai was not considered a serious too 100 NBA draft prospect. Let's be accurate.
He is not considered a 36ers top defender , Let's be reasonable here .
Again many hate the over hype not Kai.

Many people like Big Cat and myself have posted about Kai's refent good games within context, it's just that you guys don't think it's enough.. it's just being accurate

Hmmm...Okay at least we're agreeing on one thing here haha

Kai should play the starter and DJ off the bench as he's more of a pabigat than having real solid contribution to merit being a starter

I would experiment on Kai/Franks, Galloway/Franks and Kai/DJ for the bigs. I already saw Kai/Galloway didn't show any promise in the past haha

Let Harris play the 3 spot to rest AC/Dremic etc for a short time only

Because you both keep on repeating the same argument

that these NBA experts have already made final judgment on Kai's basketball career and it has already ended lol

Again we already know that it's not a big deal if a player is not drafted because there is the so called NBA BUST and Undrafted players making it

big in the future and having longer/healthy NBA career afterwards.

Don't you all still get it haha. So stop already mentioning these because his career is not going to end there like you both wants

us to believe that it is all over for Kai haha

[coach cj]

Which undrafted players made the NBA after not being invited to the NBA Draft Combine or Gleague Elite Camp?

Look no further my friend - Kai Sotto lol

[analyzed]

No that's not accurate , they didn't decide his career forever.
Just that he wasn't a top 100 draft prospect for 2022. Nothing more .
Now historically that does mean something, cause the.chances of someone who was not a top 100 prospect on draft year are historically slim. (Not impossible of course)

Don't forget the NBL and Euro teams also made a decision not to offer him. Now that is accurate.
But it's not all bad ..cause a young Zhou in same situation would also not be offered . So it's all about levels to be accurate

Sorry it's really objectively accurate that Kai's chances of getting a full year guaranteed NBA contract are really slim.

I think a 10 day or 2 way has a bigger chance but less than 50 % to be honest . The reason why the.latter two are possible is cause of significance to Pinoy community.
Remember Kai was 1st Pinoy to be invited to Ignite

[coach cj]

So no one then?

Nope..I already told you Kai Sotto haha

Nah..if there is none so what there is always the first time in everything, yes? lol

[coach cj]

So what? The mere fact that you two both is investing so much time and effort in this thread bout Kai

says a lot haha

[analyzed]

Yes absolutely I really am picky about accuracy of information " dapat totoo". And yes I hate exaggeration and over hype so much that I invest time responding to misinformation

Realize I spent so much time going against the narrative that Kai decided to enter the draft (and that he was automatically entered) against almost all Philippine media and Kai's handlers, why would I do that. Call me extreme, but it really was a LiE (hindi totoo) they were spreading lies and misinformation
I hope all of you would do the same and expose lies . .you need to proactively fight misinformation
