Very much agree with U bro. That is why Gilas reclaiming the gold (although not a spotless win-loss record) has gotten much more significant becoz it was done against highly competitive opponents. Indeed, its not just about winning the gold that is important. It is mainly about lording it over worthy opponents. Becoz there's nothing much to be proud of & its much less fulfilling being crowned as the "one-eyed king in the land of the blind"."A king may move a man, a father may claim a son, but that man can also move himself, and only then does that man truly begin his own game. Remember that howsoever you are played or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone, even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power, when you stand before God, you cannot say, 'But I was told by others to do thus,' or that virtue was not convenient at the time. This will not suffice." - King Baldwin IV -
Agree with U on this bro.Originally posted by Giannis34GOD View Post
This I say: In the next SEA Games, silver medalist Cambodia would be back to the slaughter house. Indonesia & Thailand would be Gilas' main rivals.
Just let the SEA Games be a training ground or learning experience for our young/developmental players. Let's send our best players in tournaments like FIBA Asia Cup, World Cup & possibly Olympics."A king may move a man, a father may claim a son, but that man can also move himself, and only then does that man truly begin his own game.

Correct. The main purpose of sending ineligibles to the SEA Games & Asian Games should be on increasing those players chances of getting exemptions from FIBA and not really on making the team stronger with their presence.Originally posted by barok espinoza View PostLast edited by JAMSKIE; 05-17-2023, 02:48 AM."A king may move a man, a father may claim a son, but that man can also move himself, and only then does that man truly begin his own game.

Maybe it's just me but I believe that the Cambodian experience should give Gilas an idea how to stop the Dominicans as well as the Angolans. If a team is athletic, deliberately slow the tempo. Never let these teams have an open court.
Shutting down the transition offense is vital for Gilas.Last edited by ja.he; 05-17-2023, 05:22 AM.Attack

Yup. That's the problem. We dont have eligibles who are like CS, Rosser or Philips.Originally posted by reamily View PostComment

Why is Chot's idea of using development players for SEA games sound like such a innovative idea, isn't this just common sense? Who is planning things ba for Gilas in SBP? Doesn't anyone think about these things ? This is 2 SEA games already wirb over 35 years old PBA vetsComment

i don’t think so. This is a spot where we have a plethora of options, including Clarkson. This is just recency bias due to his strong showing in this SEAG. When you look at the pool landscape, he will have to duke it out with a lot of players eager to represent the Phi in this WC.Originally posted by reamily View Post

I see lot of "overrated" guys duking it out for that position..not talking kiefer in it lol, he will take the 3rd pg slot (the ross slot)Originally posted by NOiNU View PostLast edited by reamily; 05-17-2023, 12:39 PM.To becomes Asia's Best, we need to compete against the World's Best..

I think Newsome has a decent chance. But I am not sure if he is good as a 1.

handles
some passing
mid range
