I'm beginning to dislike Oftana. He reminds me of Matthew Wright as far as FIBA performance is concerned.
Oftana hasn't hit shots he normally makes in the PBA. To think that he is known as a dead shot in the PBA. Chris Newsome isn't really that good in 3pt shooting yet playing for Gilas, Newsome has shot better from 3pt than Oftana."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

I say the team's shortcoming in 3-pt shooting is being exposed in this game, especially as Dwight Ramos isn't playing & Oftana continues to struggle with his shooting.
Nagpapasok nalang yung mga 3pts natin in the 4th quarter becoz tambak na, hence no more pressure.
If we look at our guards - Iskati, Newsome & Perez, none of them are natural 3-pt shooters. That's why I think we need a Jordan Heading in the team."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.

Since we are already qualified , I hope CTC uses the next window to give young guns like KQ and Amos more minutes, plus add young players in the pool as well, and maybe rest JB and play Ange (ange really needs reps under gilas for future exception purposes)

For ex:
Gary David was a Superstar in Pba. But in Gilas, he struggled. Jeff chan and Larry Fonacier were better shooters and players than him in Gilas. Even if in Pba, Gary was a much better player.
Arwind Also. Arwind was a Superstar in Pba. He struggled in Fiba.
On the other hand, there are players better in Fiba than Pba.
For ex: Ranidel. I remembered Argentina Coach, and Iran Coach mentioned RDO was a matchup nightmare for them.

I tuned in late in the 2nd. They seemed to have a problem putting separation against HK. Maybe the absence of Dwight was a reason. The commentator was saying Dwight was in and out in the B league because of injuries.
Not having Dwight severely hampers this team. Maybe having Heading there will help.
