2023 Asia Pacific world cup qualifiers (windows)

Navarro is hesitant. Reluctant to be aggressive and reluctant to take shots.

Too obvious, the minions guards of Abarrientos and Belangel will not work against nations with big guards like NZ. They are easily overpowered and undersized in defense.

[JAMSKIE]

We couldn't execute as NZ's defense is just suffocating.

Somehow its good that our boys are exposed to this kind of game. Expose them to games in which the opponent plays unforgiving defense.

[noyce]

that tactical start by NZ to aggressive guard us really set that tone at start of the game, all of the players who seem unable to handle pressure are now exposed, it has become obvious that one mistake becomes costly, and our defense is not as cat-string as we would like.

[reamily]

This nz team will be walloped by the korean team this Gilas team played 2 weeks ago... that was the reason I didnt fully buy on that charade

[zairex]

Idk, the program director has set up Nenad to fail from the start. 11 players and only one big man? No naturalize kahit ineligible? Kung si Choke ang coach ngayon I'm sure iiyak sa PBA yan na hiramin kahit si JuneMar lang, but since he is not. He'll try to sabotage whomever the coach that is assigned to prove that he is still the right man for the job. Classic choke

The problem is team rebounding SK has defeated NZ 3x without RA Guna. SK is efficient in team rebounding. Boxing out all the players.

Is that the best thats currently available for the Philipines? This is not even close to be worldcup worthy.

[JAMSKIE]

They just can't hit their shots apart from Tamayo..

Well, we couldn't get our players to have open 3 pointers becoz of NZ's good defense. Once kasi a player would feel too much defensive pressure from the opponents, chances are mag iiba shooting rhythm nya.

This is ok if we did how Indo did. Long term preparation

[noyce]

it seems Nenad has a fixed game plan in terms of offense (still insisted that a high PnR game will work when it failed against edit: SoKor), we executed well when we followed the offense, then after some misses, it went back to heroball by Kiefer.

anyway lets see Nenad's adjustments if there are any

No, it's not.

Angelo Kouame, Kai Sotto, and Justine Baltazar are missing.

[Sikatrix]

No, it's not.

Angelo Kouame, Kai Sotto, and Justine Baltazar are missing.

Yup without an NP we should be massive underdogs.

[mapuakid]

No ange and balti
Hoping good plays in the 2nd half

Midget guards are being exposed in this game.

But pack choke lol

[greenarcher]

KBL: Is it too late to rescind on the Pinoy import contracts?

[ja.he]

no more inclusion for Quiambao please.

[The_Big_Cat]

No, it's not.

Angelo Kouame, Kai Sotto, and Justine Baltazar are missing.

The best young guards in the PBA; CJ Perez and Robert Bolick are not there as well. The two are the best performers from the 2019 World Cup Philippine team.
