Malonzo had a calf injury and not an achilles injury. There was even an option for him to just rest it and let it heal on its own but there was a chance...

KBL and Bleague have acquired local players without the benefit of watching them play in an overseas pro tournament. Gutang was languishing in the MPBL....

Socialist vs Capitalist tendencies. Glorification of being humble/having just enough/poor (media a lot to be blamed). It's a way of conditioning people...

He's definitely improving and doing well against locals. It's when he gets switched to imports where he's understandably less effective. But the good...
