Filipino Players in Foreign Leagues

[digitalsuperman]

Jarod Lucus is NCAA Division 1 at Oregon State

His grandfather was Filipino, so I am not sure where he fits in to the passport issues.

Is that commendable when a 17yr old bested a projected number 1 19yr old?lol in youth tournaments a 2 yr difference is so massive.lol it is like a grade 4 student getting the best of a 6th grader that is embarrassing.

Kai had a hard time with Prosper? Just imagine Chet playing against lester.haha just one hard foul of LP would send Chet to the hospital. Prob ng negatrons di nagiisip.haha chet will freeze just standing beside LP.haha He was even scared playing against u19 Mali and was relegated to guarding perimeter players.haha

Chet was scared to take the ignite offer because he will be exposed.lol then took his ass playing teenagers and was at best average.haha kai had almost the same stat at 17.haha

TANGINA MO! LOL he was the reason they won? did you even watch the game?

WHO FISHED FOR WEMBANYAMA's 3RD and 4TH FOULS? CHET

WHO SCORED THE GO AHEAD BASKET? CHET

TANGINA MO BOBONG BAKLA KA TALAGA, ngayon HOTDOG naman ni LOFTON gusto mo isubo

In France's defense those fouls were fishy. And Team USA got away with some no-calls which people called out.

[rzr_390]

DJ Fenner, Scuba Holt, Mikh Mckinney, Isiah Umipig?

Chanelle Molina - Sodertalje - Sweden Damligan(Sweden's top pro league)

Ceejay Nofuente - Herner TC - Germany Bundesliga(Germany's top pro league)

Um does Christian David still count? Lol. I realize he's been disowned by some... Butler NCAA Div 1.

There's gotta be a few more out there. Especially in Southeast Asia(excluding Philippines). And US college for sure.

Might as well add Harper Jr., Kamaka Hepa and QMB.

Offered to NBL teams by EWP, not offered a contract by NBL teams . Please know what you're talking about.

It's nothing to debate as it's confirmed many many times . That EWP approached many teams.. confirmed by the teams themselves and many people involved

Same way EWP kai's handlers "offered " Kai services to Gilas last March , when he was.with Ignite.

"OFFERED "

No one is saying Kai is not qualified as an Asian import or eligible as an open import .
He just didn't qualify as a next star player when sought after being assessed.

Offered?lol As if EWP was selling kai like an escort and was rejected many times?hahaha Your statements doesn't coincide with Bruton and Adelaide GM!lol Do you really want us all to believe you over them? Kai was sought after and agents were lining up to get Kai based on their GM and Bruton said that Brisbane was no good for not landing Kai!haha Kai offered to Gilas? It was Tab and SBP who were begging for months for Kai's services. They cant even dictate the arrival date of Kai and Kai wasnt made available to play for the Abdullah Cup. Your twisting ALWAYS everything to make it sound that Kai was begging to be in the NBL.lol
EWP always has the upperhand in the negotiations.lol

Nothing u said contradicts that Kai was offered to other teams. EwP looking for teams for best deal is their job , that doesn't mean he wasn't in demand .
Being in demand doesn't mean the supplier agent does not look for buyers for the best deal. This is basic knowledge and common sense

It's really this simple if Tamayo was offered to NBL teams as an Asian import , there will be many takers, he will be in demand. , ther are 7 Asian import spots available.
But if a NBL or team tried to sign him up under a next star sign up, that requires assessment if he qualified to avail of the free money funding from.NBL, Carl would fail to qualify as a next star sign up..super clear . Nothing to argue really

I havent read a statement or heard an interview that KaI was rejected by any team. The only reason he was not signed by other teams was that they didn't agree on the contract but it was never about Kai being rejected or that he failed next star criteria.haha

[DAdmiral]

No one said he was rejected as an Asian import.
But some tried to use the next star privilege to sign him, which failed. This is confirmed by at least 3 people from different teams , CJ included

[DAdmiral]

I leave it to the sensible to figure out and arrive with their own conclusion, believe what you want. these are the facts.

1. The NEXT STAR program funds sign-ups a significant salary for those who qualify

2. There is no such rule that prohibits anyone ( NBL team, sponsors etc) to give a player under a next star program more money.. (NONE whatsoever)

[Trae Yong]

'by at least 3 people from 3 different teams"

Final answer na ba yan, analyzed?

So, your story is, after one team tried but kai was "assessed" by the league as not qualified, an idiot tried again and then another idiot tried? Mga tarantado na lang tlga maniniwala sa kwentong kutsero mo hype ka.

naku affected na naman si BAKLA

[DAdmiral]

why would all the teams only try him for a next star? there are other ways of signiing and availing of kai's services ,
it's a silly speculation.. are the 36ers the only team that thought of getting Kai as a SRP ? that's pure baloney ..

[DAdmiral]

Nitpicking post is really irrelevant.
Bottomline any sensible person would know teams would try to have Kai assessed to use the free funding to sign Kai. .
It's basic common sense, of course if he has already been assessed, their attempts and thoughts on how to sign him will be via another classification. This is common sense and does not need to be explained. And if you read my post to mean different, then you're simply not thinking or just trying to find fault. .

Anyway no need to convince anyone , believe what u want , that not a single team and the NBL didn't try to sign him as a next star. Go ahead believe that. Kai being such a unique young player that he would take a different path as all the next star players , lamelo , Giddey etc. Feel fee to believe that narrative.
