Future Big Men Of Philippine Basketball

Lets be fair, this team is closer to a Team Z than a Team D. US is that deep.

Yeah, my bad. But what do you think, is this a Team USA that a well-prepared Gilas A-team anchored by JC and Kai pull an upset on?

Looks like the top countries participating in Americup and Asia Cup dont usually put up the strongest teams, unlike the teams in Eurobasket where the teams are almost fully stacked backstopped by their NBA guys . ( Cant go much higher than Luka, Giannis and Jokic, unless LeBron will play for LeBleus ...le Lol).

I do hope my favorite team (not family, as they have their own uaap teams to root for) will get the 6'9 trio of gagate, demisana and filam alter as 4s, and prepare them better even than kai and tamayo. Serious money at least is backing up the mbt. I really want them to beat college-level teams in serbia, russia and spain. I really like to see the uaap level up even in the high school league.

Hey, a fellow UP alum. That's why you root for UP. Well, we do have Lina and Catapusan as holdover players at 4 and 5 for next year, along with Diouf. Getting Gagate, Gab Demisana, and Alter could be good. And even if they play 5, at least get them as mobile as Tamayo, or even more mobile, so that they can still play 4 alongside a taller player at 5.

Here's a post from Jammer Jamito next to what looks like a 6'7"-6'8" kid: https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid...11635737441613

Two things to those kids mentioned nowadays and previously...hoping that handlers train them(more) to develop solid handles and footworks...that's the CORE part of it.
