For a teenage 6-foot-8 kid, Jayden Harper's ball handling is impressive. The bigger question is if he is FIBA eligible. As far as I can remember, it seems...

[JAMSKIE]

Well, at least Caelum Harris is only 18 years old. He has all the time in the world to improve his shooting. Based on what I saw, some players were able...

Nice to see Kai hitting 2 outside shots yesterday. I think he also a 15-ft mid-range jumper in last Saturday's game. It is really those kind of shots...

Caleum Harris hitting 2 tripples in the 1st quarter. Good to see that his outside shooting seems to be improving. That's the key for him to become a more...

[JAMSKIE]

Very correct.

Fil-am Nation has the edge in talent, size & athleticism. NU-Nazareth has the edge in cohesion which obviously is the one...

Sir, Kai will turn only 21 this May.

Well, we have to remember that when Baltazar was 20, he was still a nobody in Philippine basketball. On the other hand, Tamayo at 17 or 18 was already...

Was JJ Mandaquit invited in the tryouts? 

[JAMSKIE]

Agree with U. 
While the NBA is the ultimate goal of every baller, its not a "be all end all" thing". 

I will never...

[JAMSKIE]

Yeah, like a Junmar who looked so dominant being pitted against 6-foot-5/6-foot-6 local bigs in the PBA, but turned out to be just another big man out...

[JAMSKIE]

That's good. 26 mins is a good burn. 
Not bad stats as well. The important thing is that he gets ample playing time...

[JAMSKIE]

That's why Mandaquit should just stay in the US & enroll in an NCAA Div. 1 college instead of playing in Philippine college. 

Imagine...

[JAMSKIE]

I think the 3 games that Kai had played so far in the B-league indicate that if he gets enough playing time & touches, he can produce impressive stats...

[JAMSKIE]

I know its selfish of me to say this but in all honestly, I hope JJ Mandaquit will never play for the US youth national teams may it be U-16/17 or U-18/19....

[JAMSKIE]

Agree. Being named to the US youth national pool (though he didn't make it to the final 12-man roster) is something. ...

[JAMSKIE]

Problem is, our B-league boys won't be available by that time (May). Will our KBL boys be available? I think Rhenz Abando & RJ Abarrientos should...

Guys, how good is this 15-year old Fil-am JJ Mandaquit who is going to play in the NBTC this March? 

I heard he is highly regarded in US...

[JAMSKIE]

Honestly, I no longer care about how we fare in the SEA Games. I'll take a SEA Games basketball silver medal for as long as we do well in Asian basketball,...

Speaking of Tamayo, I'm a bit surprised to know...

[JAMSKIE]

I still think KBL is the way to go for big men like Baltazar & Tamayo. In the KBL, only 1 import can play at a time. The imports that KBL teams usually...
