      While I do think Peezones went too far, public figures are not immune to criticism. Constructive pa nga, when you point out that Givony is partial to athletic big men? Because maybe he'll value skilled big men more in the future, who know how to (or have the potential to) play positional defense instead.

      Saying that people who criticize Givony's assessments don't match up to his credibility and things like trusting an expert over a random nobody is just an appeal to authority fallacy.

        Most Asian centers cannot defend against a point blank hook shot by Kai, that's amazing. I'm glad he hasn't lost that in training to be a bruiser center for Coach Shaw.

        Also, Coach Allen has a new video out, where he criticizes Kai's qualities.



        I hope people will not call him a Pinoy baiter anymore with this one.

          With smithleagues pickup games, kai was obviously running half heartedly. Takbong petix and wasnt going hard. It also showed that he could do things easily. Parang di na need mageffort.hehe

          I think a better gauge was the calamba bubble clips. The mood in that was serious and pace was intense. Hopefully, we will see longer clips next time.

          I think kai could really do well at 18 against all asians teams even against australia, china, iran and lebanon. Only those 4 have imposing bigs who could matchup with Kai.

            Sorry but its really not just kai is that good offensively. I just dont think kuoame is that good defensively. Ive seen it in the jones cup. Its not difficult to score against him .

              Let's wait till we watch a full competitive game first before we judge

                For the record I agree with your comment. Though I enjoy listening to other posters opinions as well sometimes sometimes people can get carried away. It's gonna be bonkers here during draft day..

                  What is wrong with Pinoy as a whole? We are too enamored with foreigners that we lose our identity as a nation. We take foreigners opinion as the holy grail. If you are that kind, then shove it to your throats. I'll stick to my opinion. You should convince your friends because it wont affect mine.
                  sorry to butt in.but he actually watched him before



                  also, you won't know he is not spending time on kai. maybe just maybe he is not worth writing an article now because as we all know, kai havent played an official game for more than a year now lol

                      How would he appreciate a 16year old Kai?lol Givony is more on athleticism and muscles. He would put that over skills.haha He also failed to consider that Kai is 2yrs younger than opponents in U17 tournament. It is absurd for a scout to look for toughness, strength and polish player on a recently 16 year old 7'2 player. I wonder if Givony or any of his kin were so chiseled at 16.hahaha halata di naglalaro ng bball tung si givony.hahaha

                      He should have watch Kai's TSF games. Those saying that phenom reports, suvtv analyst and other scouts present watching kai's games as no name bloggers should reconsider their dependence on Givony.lol it is a pity that others cant create their own assessment and just dependent on a writer.haha

                      I wonder what was his assessment on Zhou Qi at 17.hahaha Qi owned youth tournaments before and was reed thin.lol for sure he will just check the stat sheets.haha

                        Hahaha others here were hailing Kouame as a utility guy. What will be his use with Gilas if he is not a good defender?lol he was their only big for ateneo during that time. You dont expect a player to swat everything.haha

                          I dont know if it was Givony. But the knock on Zhou Qi was he was a bit mechanical and didnt seem to enjoy the game. By Asia levels Zhou Qi is a physical specimen with 7'8 wingspan and decent mobility. So it was not his physicals or skills that was the problem I think. Kai, like most Pinoys, has that love of the game. But he doesnt have as long a wingspan so his laterals should be better.

                          • Givony as a top tier WRITER was looking for strength, toughness and polish ones on youth tournaments.lol you dont see that at that age.haha kung yan lang basis mo sa prospect at that age nakakatawa.haha lebron james or dwight howard lang ang alam nitong si givony.haha most prospects were reed thin at that age. Pau Gasul was a stick at that age.haha

                              China were world champions during Qi time. He even scored around 50 plus. I will look for articles about it.

                              • Question for all here.

                                Do we all agree that Kai Sotto is our Best Homegrown Local Player Right Now??? (Talent Wise)

                                I cannot even think who is the second one.

                                Because I think AJ and Dwight will be 2nd and 3rd talented in Gilas. (But they are not homegrown)

                                Note: I am excluding Naturalized Player.

                                If Kai cannot make it to the Nba any way (draft, Draft and stash, undrfated Signing or 10 day contract), then it will be 10-15 years before we can get another LEGIT NBA DRAFT PROSPECT.

                                Kiefer, Japeth, Kobe, and Parks tried to enter the Nba. But none of them is as legit as an nba prospect like Kai
