Future Big Men Of Philippine Basketball

Is Pangalangan still with Letran? He kept showing up in my timeline playing basketball with my former neighbor in Pampanga..

That's the thing, e. The culture prevents them from thinking about development. Development almost always comes from the players.

If winning means allowing undersized scoring guards to dominate the offense, they'll do that. But that kind of play style gets coaches to develop bigs as simply screeners, rebounders and interior defenders, not as scoring threats. It stunts their growth.

Maybe, if we let our bigs play like guards, we may have less of a big man crisis here. Or maybe get a positionless offensive system that will help us win. Everybody can handle the ball, and has an opportunity to drive. Run a guard-big PNR, where the big is the ball-handler.

How many are that kind of bigs even in NBA that are good. AD, CAT, Giannis, Simmins, bigs who have some guard skills.

Jokić as well. And among star bigs, those form the majority in the NBA, bigs with that kind of play style.

Look, we're undersized outside of Japeth, Greg, and June Mar, who by the way are three of the 4 best bigs in the Philippines. We'll need to develop bigs 6'8" below with the skillset and quickness of a guard so that they can better adjust to perimeter positions and so that they'll have a fighting chance against bigger players internationally.

Asan na yung sinasabi ni analyzed na same as Edu and Kai prospect? tagal naman

JUSTINE BALTAZAR HAVE A STANDING OFFER IN A PRO LEAGUE IN THE STATES!!!!

Question is which league?

Question is which league?

What's Your guess?

[IPC]

The way I see it, mas maganda pa yata katayuan ng PBA kisa B-league in terms of having good quality big men. Junmar, Japeth ag Greg are still at their peaks (though medyo matanda na si Japeth & Greg). Then we have Almazan, Erram, Standhardinger, Tautuaa. In the B-league , other than the Takeuchi twins, Ota (all of whom no longer in their prime) & Schaefer, parang wala ka nang makitang quality big standing 6-foot-7 & above.

But of course in terms of wingmen & guards, marami talagang magagaling sa B-league. Then you have NBA guys Hachimura, Watanabe & Baba.

Problema na lang natin, finding successors to the likes of Japeth, Greg, June Mar, Standhardinger, Mo, Almazan, and Erram. Hopefully, the new crop of young big men we have will be worthy successors. And again, hope they have the skillset and mobility of perimeter players.

mga 8-12 sana. Quality bigs that could compete against the Iranians and the Chinese,I think that would be feasible enough,kaya nakakahinayang si Sage and QMB.

Well, reality is he doesn't want to play with Baldwin due to benching incident last 2016.. Even Japeth's father as some issues with Baldwin.. So i really expect this from Japeth.. We should move on from Japeth right now..

Thing is, we'll need to replace his rim-protection. Good thing we have Kai and Edu, and possibli Kouame. Hopefully we'll produce another tall athletic big.

Man, shame that Japeth matured and toughened late.

[IPC]

We havbe Geo Chiu and Ethan Kirkness.. That's 2 already.. Then maybe guys like Rike, Adamos will shine at PBA then that's OK..

Hopefully, they become ala-RDO players. Adamos has hops and is quite skilled, but he's a classic big who can shoot a 3. Hopefully he may go to a team that can turn him into another version of RDO. Rike, consistency in his shot. He was subpar in the UAAP.

Barkley Eboña is another PBA big I'm looking at. He can handle a bit, and guard perimeter-oriented 4s. Hope he can work on his handle and 3-ball, as well as perimeter D.

In the NBA, bigs with a skillset to defend the paint and rebound is fine because, look how tall and big their bigs are. 6'9" to 6'11".

Additionally, the NBA requires a lot of their bigs to be able to be versatile on either end or both. The Americans with the 7-footers, that's required of them, what more us where the tallest players are usually 6'6"-6'8"? Even if it's not a guard skillset, at least that of a Draymond Green or Charles Barkley, who both handle the ball well and are mobile, and can operate from the perimeter.

[IPC]

I still want Japeth too.. But we should accept Japeth's retirement in Gilas.. He is the OG of "Bayan muna, bago PBA" before..

Yeah, I know. That's why we'll need to look for someone who can replicate his rim protection.

Do you guys think a 6'9 Japeth with a motor of Pingris could have been an Nba Player?
