Filipino Players in Foreign Leagues

My first thoughts were about why Kai hasnt been vaccinated yet. He is in the US after all. If Kai just got the J and J one shot then maybe they could waive or at least shorten quarantine.

At just 19 with no co-morbidities and a non-US citizen, I guess Kai was pretty low on the priority list for vaccinations.

Well, even if Kai has been vaccinated, makakahawa pa rin sya ng covid if he gets infected by it. Being vaccinated doesn't get you immuned with the virus & it still makes you a spreader of the virus.

This. You can still get covid but probably just asymptomatic or with mild signs and symptoms and not the serious ones.

The other guys are vaccinated already. Maybe he could get it while he's in the bubble

The real problem lies with the greedy PBA governors. I think the players and owners would want to participate. Problema lang din ng SBP kasi mahilig mangpirate ng players. The SBP personnels specially the coaches tend to further their agenda when dealing with NT players.

Vaccination in the US is now open to most people age 12 and above. The vaccination supply has been stable. You can even make same-day appointment at a pharmacy or hospital or clinics.

I got mine at CVS pharmacy the same day I made an appointment. Not being a citizen is not a factor. Just show a government ID and you're good to go.

Well, I would rather have SBP (or MVP group) pirating players from SMC than the other way around.

The thing is, for every single quality player that SBP or MVP gets, 6 quality players ang mapupunta sa SMC.

The only problem really is the San Miguel Bloc and its lapdog Commisioner Marcial. Effin Hypocrites! Wala pang season hindi puwede magpahiram eh ilan players lang. Pero yung kay TIm Cone barely 1 week from the finals pinahiram lahat. walang pagod pagod. Ang sabihin nila gusto nilang magfail ang current Gilas para magkaroon ng justification ang pagpasok ng San Miguel sa national program. Yan ang totoo.

Well, winning a SEA Games basketball gold medal is such a great accomplishment for Phi basketball.

Great accomplishment my ass

Wish we can like posts in IBN.

If Gilas cadets fail then there will be public clamor for the entry and participation of PBA in Gilas. This feels like 2015 (no SMC players except Ping) resulting to 2016 OQT (public clamor to replace Tab for failing to win).

LOL.

ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEM OF PHILIPPINE BASKETBALL.

PBA, SMC, MVP, SBP, AND EVEN NCAA/UAAP ARE NOT ACTING AS ONE. HENCE, TO PUT IT WORST, ACTING AS ENEMIES AND BRINGING EACH OTHER DOWN. LMAO.

I get it, SMC and MVP, magkaaway kayo sa business. But this is for the country.

For Pba, If you want to help national team, lend players in the right time. If u dont want, that is fine, just don't mess the cadet program.

For uaap/ncaa schools, I hope they can give considerations(not exemptions) to gilas young players/students about their academic requirements

Mismo. No need to be grateful to this hypocrite marcial. Puta pag si Tim Cone available lahat dahil galing sa San Miguel kahit 1 week from finals derecho practice for Sea games. Kinang ina nyan ni Marcial - San Miguel lap dog

yuck dds kadiri

Gilas Pilipinas head coach Jong Uichico beamed excitement over the arrival of Kai Sotto as they ramp up their preparation for the third window of the FIBA Asia Cup qualifiers from 16 to 20 June in Clark.

Uichico said the 7-foot-3 Sotto can still join the team despite doubts due to his late arrival from the United States.


Sotto arrived by his lonesome late Monday and would undergo a 14-day hotel quarantine before being allowed to join the team in the prestigious Asian tourney.

Although time is running out as the earliest that he would be out of quarantine is 14 June, Uichico said the best part is that he is already here and he can train with Gilas Pilipinas in preparation for the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Belgrade from 29 June to 4 July.

“It’s good that he made it here safely. We are waiting for him to clear all protocols then we will take it from there,” Uichico told the Daily Tribune.

Uichico said he is not entirely closing his door on the possibility of having the 19-year-old phenom in their lineup in the Asian tilt.

“We will have to see how much he (improved) when he is able to practice already.”

In a previous interview, Sotto reiterated his excitement to join the team soon and assured his commitment whether he can immediately join the qualifiers or not.

“It’s my very first time to play for the national team, I’m very excited to finally be with them,” Sotto said.

“(Things) might depend on the possible changes that could come, but I’m always ready to play as long as I’m still here in the country.”


Gut feeling is he will be lined up...

The problem is the whole PBA and majority of the issue lies with both SMB and MVP groups. I cant remember if SMB were also poaching players when they were at the helm of our NT. Pero for sure pareho lang yan sila lalo na yang si chua at yang mga mvp boys tsaka mga dinosaur na PBA gov. Kaya matagal na akong wala pake sa PBA kasi puro lang greed and politika yang mga yan. Natitira ko lang ang mvp group these days kasi sila ang in charge.hehe a governing body should be for all and not self serving. Kawawa yung mga teams na dati supportive sa NT tulad ng ROS then sa huli susolutin lang yung players.

These days I am leaning with SMB mainly because of RSA. He has been very generous and very helpful in nation building. Naging supporter yan ni digs nung tinanggihan ni duts ang offer na private plane. Madami kasing nagawang maayos SMB these days. Si MVP wala yang kwenta pabigat sa pinas. Pinapayaman lang ni MVP ang mga indons.
