I actually like Kouame, but in a big tournament like the FIBA Asia Cup, I think we would be needing a go-to-guy type of a naturalized player like a Cameron Oliver.

Besides, I expect AJ Edu to be playing for Gilas in that tournament so I think having both Kouame & Edu in Gilas with Kai already there would be sort of futile.

On the other hand, we are a bit weak at the 4 spot so having a NP like Oliver who is a natural 4 would ideal.

My concern lang is that the national team is missing a defensive anchor. None among our local options is a defensive anchor right now. I think everyone here knows that I prefer defense for our NT's identity.

If Cam can be a defensive anchor at the 4 spot, great. Has he shown this capability at TNT?

Their 6'8 guy is not a prototype traditional big man... He plays like Troy Rosario, He has range and some athleticism... But too soft and thin if he plays against tough guys like Junmar... But because almost all of the teams in their group are also small, He has the advantage on size... Next year, they should fix the exemption papers of Chris Dierker... They will face tough Guam, Duncan Reid led HKG and Singapore, If they advance in this 1st round of qualifiers....

He’s no rim protector but if he plays 4 with Kai as the 5, Cam is good against opponents who love to switch.

His shooting is a suspect so far this conference, especially in FTs... But he has hops and fast for his size.... Good to be in 4 spot....

Robert (I assume), you're the TNT fan. How's his defense? Can he switch to the perimeter?

No, I just enjoying basketball... But my favorite sport is football.. I'm half Greek-Filipino staying near RMS... But because football is not popular here, I also watching basketball too... I have tickets already to go Qatar next week for FIFA World cup starts later this month... Since basketball is also popular in Greece and most parts of Europe... My friends here always watching basketball, particularly UAAP & PBA, that's why i like it too....

I dont know why the guy was banned. I dont think having poor grammar and being passionate in your posts should get one banned. The guy has some questionable opinions but can I say some here have posted more outrageous stuff and have not been banned. Add to that the guy probably has limited space in sharing his opinions being in the middle east.

Maybe he also got into disputes. He doesn't swear that much too.

[JAMSKIE]

Between Robert & Cocoy, we all know who is worse.

Cocoy is a troll eh.

Yeah.

Robert & I had some disagreements. But that is just normal. But there are aspects in which I agreed with Robert.
