FIBA ASIA Cup Qualifiers

agree with you bro!, so far mainstream media has yet to cover the incident (except for fastbreak and abante, both have the notoriety in spreading misinformed news)

Thankfully another rational one like Marshmello.

We criticize vloggers for being sensational and their viewers for being dumb, and yet here we are blindly accepting and making conclusions based on an iffy video.

Edit: I take it back bro, you initially believed it quickly lol

Hahaha thank you for the enligthenment, im waiting if mainstream/legit news outfits will cover this, if bot its another case of tabloid journalism

[Marsh Mello]

Just gotta say we can be so much better than those tabloid and FB keyboard warriors but just letting the info come out first before drawing conclusions. Also just cringing at the comments that the big guy is weak for not punching back at all haha, funny thing is that IF the big guy actually retaliated in that video, the idiots will say that he punched someone smaller than his size ( hina naman pinatulan ang pandak etc).

That's the spirit lol! I'm glad your mindset changed.

But honestly, it's sad to think that majority of the population will never outgrow being susceptible to misinformation/manipulation. Especially with the proliferation of troll farms and how algorithms of social media can be controlled. Always use discernment.

Master the system? Taena ano 'to, engineering? Can you even explain to me the principles of a triangle like you would to a five year old? (hala, dugo ilong na sa English) Punyeta, all I see are more pinch post actions than pick and roll. These are supposed to be professional basketball players, hindi tambay sa kalye. Pro players are supposed to see things on the court that they've seen again and again in practice with a capable coaching staff to a level where they can pass faster and don't have to tell their teammates where to go when moving without the ball. That applies to all basketball actions, not just what you think is a triangle. Master the system ka diyan. There's a reason why amateur players are such because it's assumed they spend half of their time in school and don't practice or do conditioning as much as pros.

Throwback to when Kai did a shoot this-or-that when asked if he prefers the "Euro" system or the "NBA" system to which he replied "Solar System" kasi alam niya na napaka-bobo ng tanong na 'yan. So you mean to tell me it will take this entire core 3 years to master the system? Bitch please, watch how European countries with players from different teams leagues come together less than a week before a window and play like they've been together for years. In Tim Cone's case, since the Asian Games.

Hopefully, for the final time... my problem with the whole core setup is losing an important piece of the core messes up the entire gameplan and finding out what happens to this same set of players in the next window (not just August 2027) when they're coming in days, maybe even hours from their mother clubs will be scary. No point mastering a system if or when they won't have a guy who can get buckets in a pinch or protect the rim. It just means this system is too dependent on talent than it is with teamwork.

You didn’t get CTC purpose, I’m sure about that… He did say by the way he will take some reserves in the future, especially if needed… For now he will focus on his 12 players… I think you’re mad maybe because your favorite players are not included… You keep insisting it should be have atleast 15 players, actually anyone here wants to have reserves, we were shock that he didn’t pick atleast 3 more players, But for sure CTC knows the reason… He knows what he wants to do than us here, he’s the GOAT coach in the PBA, Gold medal coach last Asian games for nothing, he’s more experience than everyone else here… So please stop it… if you have suggestion, You can go to SBP and CTC and tell your suggestions… Many of here understand CTC and as of now he’s doing a good job…

Tim Cone bares that Gilas has been receiving invites from Lithuania, Slovenia and Czech Republic to play pocket/exhibition games.

I'm wondering why guys like Tab and Tim are having no problems in finding training partners of good quality?

Connections… CTC have good connections especially in US, and for sure those guys might working now in Europe as scouts or any basketball related jobs… Same goes to Tab… meanwhile Chot and Yeng have no connections outside Philippines, they will have hard time to connect with personnel in Europe… Also both coaches (Chot and Yeng) has bad reputation internationally… that is not helping for us to find good sparring mates with them as the head…

[Giannis34GOD]

He needs to get tested if turns positive,then we would see banners and background songs "I got High" every time Gilas is on the floor lol.

Malonzo has history of having hanging out outside basketball related activities… remember his friends are? Mikey Williams… In Gilas, the only Fil-am outside of him is only Chris Newsome, but he’s too old for this and Dwight Ramos, but not a drinker (or maybe occasionally)... Brownlee also a matured guy outside the court.. the rest are pure locals… Malonzo should be careful… He’s representing Gilas… He represents our country, he should be a good role model… He can do this after Gilas duties and no one cares…

Covid positive?! I hope he's already isolating and the others didn't test positive.

On a side note miscommunication is a vague term.

he def ain’t showing his face after everyone getting beat up like that


the smaller guy is def a trained fighter based of his social media tho

[gospursgo]

Now that it's confirmed...

Nah i'd rather bash the small guy throwing punches and whoever is in malonzo's circle or managing him for allowing him to go out drinking late alone. He's only fault is him getting drunk in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong peeps. When did this happen anyways? We aint even sure.

[reamily]

IS there no food panda on jamies place that he needs to go to kfc, we arent sure if tis happened in between the hk and taipei game..

I meant...continue with throwing out opinions and judgements like what a lot were prematurely doing. Because now, we at least know it really is him.

Personally, I am still waiting for the context. The small guy may really have a legitimate reason for doing that, or he may not. So much we don't know.

At first I also thought this might not even be recent, but if it isn't, it would make sense for him to say so. He was in the middle of an important tournament.
