FIBA-Asia Cup 2025 Saudi Arabia

[Silent Killer]

tim deserves to be criticise.. he has the most titles in PBA doesn’t mean he gets a pass..

he’s a NT coach but he doesn’t act like one.. lack of awareness to how things runs for NT..

[Sikatrix]

like this one.. giving tim a pass..

Tab got a hell of a pass by the fans. Even when he did stupid things like trying to bring Kai to the UAAP. Its the powers that be wherein Tim Cone is more well thought off.

[Silent Killer]

To be fair with tim, the limited day of practice was a rule for other guys to do their outside stuff and prevent guys to comein days before tournament while others already preparing for a month or so (ahem clarkson, kai and ceratinly will happen with quiambao) but again they can do some stuff just before kquiam goes abroad..

We'll see 95 percent jones cup will happen before asia cup we will see taiwan prepare for this, and expect sga to field a team.

Tab Baldwin tried to prevent Kai from going to the US or Europe and wanted him to stick to Ateneo. He deserves criticism.

[Silent Killer]

I just think it's bullshit how Tab Baldwin was crucified for having a Gilas scrimmage of all-Ateneo players to start World Cup qualifying with players like Tamayo, Balti, RJ having to go back to their schools, Kai had to pick up what's left of his G-League career at that time, Heading headed back home to Australia... at a time when the PBA had nothing to do with Gilas during the pandemic (which led to his sudden resignation and all out hate for Chot) then no one bats an eye that CTC's team of even fewer PBA players can't do much without the guys playing abroad.

people here are giving a pass on tim cone but not on tab..

It's hard to scrimmage when U got only 5 or 6 players ( Dwight, Edu, Tamayo, KQ, Brownlee & perhaps Mason Amos). Best alternative is to join Ginebra practices from time to time aside from the "every Monday" Gilas practice.

Did KQ will participate Summer league? So that means he is also not available for most of Gilas practice... He will be busy in summer league sessions from late June to mid July at peak...

It might be opposite the japan boys and kbl boys are free and treat this as "papawis" and pba guus will be preoccupied..although it opens a little chance that they expand their super shallow pool hhehe

I think not too many Pinoy basketball enthusiasts are aware that by late May or early June, that is already the tailend of the season of most pro basketball leagues in Asia like the B-league & KBL. Yun na actually yung championship series ng mga liga na yan. Some leagues in Asia end their season earlier than that. Yung iba, by early May tapos na yung season nila.

Nasanay na kasi tayo sa ating beloved PBA which runs for 14 months per season(just a hyperbole).

[JAMSKIE]

It doesn’t even have to be every Monday.

the non-PBA guys can also do 3-4 times a week practice.

I think by late May the KBL finals will already be over so even if Carl Tamayo's team makes it to the finals, Tamayo will be available for Gilas practices by early June. AJ Edu & Dwight Ramos are already done with their 2024-2025 season with their respective teams in the B-league, so as KQ with his KBL stint for the 2024-2025 season. Meaning by early June, everybody can attend the "every Monday" Gilas practice that coach Tim is planning to do.

Well, I'm glad that coach Tim is planning the "every Monday" Gilas practice. Hope it pushes thru.

The Japan and Korea boys are already done except Tamayo and KQ (summer league).

it will be fine.

Still think the short preps are due to the contract clauses of the foreign based players

Or pba doesnt adjust its schedule to fiba asia cup tournament. Kbl and japan guys will be free from june onwards meanwhile pba still ongoing.
