Originally posted by JAMSKIE View PostI say in case Kai gets undrafted, then let us not put too much fuss into it.

Of course most of us here want Kai to be drafted. But in case he isn't drafted, hope Kai's value as a basketball player & even as a person won't be downgraded by that much. Yung iba kasi dito parang subrang big deal sa kanila yung pagka draft or hindi pagka draft kay Kai Sotto. I feel like Kai's chances of making it to the NBA is being over analyzed by some posters here. Eh halos yung pinag uusapan na lang sa original thread ni Kai Sotto (pinag palit-palit pa nila yung panglan ng thread) eh yung chance ni Kai makapaglaro sa NBA. Puro NBA na lang pinag-usapan sa thread na yun eh. People hardly talked about Kai's stint with Gilas or Kai's future stint in FIBA or FIBA Asia tournaments.
Hope this new thread of Kai Sotto would be spared from toxicity.
Because the reality is Gilas will always be there for him, heck even the PBA if he has nothing else to fall back onto. That is why Kai making it to the NBA is a BIG DEAL. (well for us filipinos anyway.lol)Originally posted by PeeZonesKai is a top ten lottery pick come draft day and the best team for him is the spurs...Kai is way more skilled OFFENSIVELY than duncan, yao, aldridge, kp. etc..Kai is way better offensively than Porzingis by a mile...Kareem isnt really way far than Kai..decent bball IQ for both MJ and Kobe but Kai belongs to the highly skilled and high IQ players...I see talent clearly and they cant.

Originally posted by robert0326I know Kai is eligible.. What i mean is he can withdraw or what? Or he will join or not? Ewan ko ba sa inyo!!! Too much explanation.. I know that already because even the Fil-Ams coming here are also like that.. But the thing is.. IS HE JOINING THIS YEARS DRAFT? OR HE WILL DECLINED AND JOIN FOR 2022? Di nyo ata na gets ang side ko.. Because what Analyzed explaination is he is already eligible.. That is OK.. But my question is He can decline? He can skip into 2022? That is the question...
If Kai really falls in the first category
Nba teams have all the rights to draft him no matter what.
Now, if Kai doesnt want to play for that team. His roghts still remains to that team.
I get your point bro. We are always in same side.
But, this time, if he really falls in CBA, he cant really decline

And..I can't believe we had to create another "Kai Thread" when it's still the same personalities who will be posting on here, going around in circles endlessly debating about Kai this Kai that, who's right and who's wrong, who's gotta bigger ego over the other, "I'm smarter than you" etc...just watch, it's gonna go down the same hole as the other one.Originally posted by PeeZonesKai is a top ten lottery pick come draft day and the best team for him is the spurs...Kai is way more skilled OFFENSIVELY than duncan, yao, aldridge, kp. etc..Kai is way better offensively than Porzingis by a mile...Kareem isnt really way far than Kai..decent bball IQ for both MJ and Kobe but Kai belongs to the highly skilled and high IQ players...I see talent clearly and they cant.

As long as we FINALLY get to see one of our own on an NBA team?

Read some comments on socmed that Kai daw is talking to some top notch schools where he's going to get big minutes. How true is this? Is he still eligible considering he already is earning from his contract plus other business ventures? Realistically what are his options if he can't play with Ignite?
