PBA 49th Season

whats scary though I feel like is that he has become a more willing team player - team defender, passer. This will be a problem if we do face Jordan.

I hope we havent given them (Jordan) any clues.

That's my concern too. RHJ is gonna be a problem for us if we face Jordan and it looks like he's unstoppable in the Asian level as a small-ball PF. Jordan simply has to surround RHJ with shooters and make him the primary ball handler just like what TNT has done and FIBA-Asia teams will find them tough to beat.

Good thing Jordan is not consistent with there 3 point shooting unlike Lebanon.

Isaac Go injury proved pivotal. No bigs behind Japeth. Lets see if they get Troy.

Ratings should be great for this series, I think the Game 1 pre show outdrew PVL Game 3 Finals.

I dont think Go wouldve done much tbh, TNT's bigs are better than him. Maybe Jamie but Ginebra has a gaping hole at Center. If this is Tim Cone's way of saying; I need Motor Mike then so be it.

Imagine if RHJ is the naturalized player for Korea or Japan. Yikes.

I Don't think RHJ will be an effective rim protector against NZ or Australia. Both Japan and Korea will need that more in my opinion.

Jordan needs a sweet-shooting center who is mobile enough so RHJ can player small-ball PF. Good thing Jordan doesn't have the personnel as Al-Dwairi and Hussein are back-to-the-basket centers.

Look at the average white guys Japan has for NPs. Do you think they offer more than RHJ? Japan relies on the B league for its NPs. Even then their not NBA or top level Euro league level IMO. If they wanted defense they wouldve picked somebody like Blackshear. But its seems the tall white guys with shooting win the NP slot.

Jordan doesn't have Castro or Mikey type of PG that can partner w/ RHJ, Ibrahim is good but nowhere near in the level of prime Castro or Mikey.. even a 38 year old Castro might be better than current Ibrahim.. in the finals of Asian games, Ibrahim was no where to be found.. If Arakji was Jordanian maybe it will happen....

I think they have in their youth team, especially who finished 4th last U18 Tournament.. maybe he will automatically elevated to seniors team

It got me thinking too that RHJ's style of play is better suited for Lebanon as they like to play small ball.

He is also fit to us, If SBP take care of him.. imagine him alongside Kai and AJ? Our interior defense will be monster in Asian level... He can also fit w/ CTC's system..

What are your thoughts on RJ? The team seemed confused and unsure every time he tried to set up a play
