The thing about Stockton is, at 6-foot-1/6-foot-2, he is a good size point guard not just in the PBA but in Asian level basketball as well. Plus he is a decent defender which is the kind of a guard coach Tim wud want. Even if for instance he is not able to carryover his PBA offensive game to the FIBA game, which is what some doubters are pointing out, I think he would probably carryover his play making skills & defense to the FIBA game.
In the Gilas team set up where there are a lot of scorers, Stockton doesn't really need to score. He just have to focus on playmaking & defense. Besides, he is expected to just play as a reliever of Iskati Thompson so he's not expected to get heavy minutes.Last edited by JAMSKIE; 08-21-2024, 11:38 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.

Converge is no Perrafirma or Blacktubig.

IRC he spoke out against SMC. I forgot about what issue. RSA I think got hurt, because even when he was retired they had given him a business and probably other stuff. SMC pulled out those business and other perks I think. On a separate matter, IMO Danny I is a bit overrated. JMF was on his way to PBA stardom even without his training. I think the pivot with chicken wing was the move he taught JF. JF barely uses it now because obvious chicken wings are whistled even by PBA refs. As I read here Kerby Raymundo had a more effective game in internationally. Kerby should be teaching his skills. But Kerby was not at the level of Danny I in the PBA.

Kerby's skillset is more useful outside the Philippines (FIBA or overseas) for bigs that measure 201cm and under, while Danny I's and June Mar's are better for bigs that measure 208cm (6'10") and up.

I think for the best Pinoy bigs that measure 198-203cm (6'6"-6'8"), they should emphasize training and playing at the 4 spot. So emphasize quickness and versatility, especially on defense.

I don't really remember. I became a fan of the PBA late, just in 2013. I know about Kerby's skillset from watching videos in YouTube.
