Rudy Hatfield will be making a comeback this conference and Uichico has to drop one player from his current roster to accommodate the do-it-all forward. Names of Eric Menk, Billy Mamaril, Willie Wilson, Sunday Salvacion, newly acquired 6-4 John Ferriols/6-8 Yancy de Ocampo and JC Intal were on the list to be his placed on the reserve list. But I was wondering why JC Intal or Willy Wilson were included where in fact these guys performed well above expectations last conference. If one of these players would be placed on the reserve list, other teams will have the opportunity to enlist this player as Unrestricted Free Agent with Rights to Salary. Jong must be thinking of match up issues with other teams considering that it's an import faced conference.

 

:goatee:

hindi naman siguro ilalagay ni coach jong si intal. binanggit niya lang lahat ng forward niya dahil forward ang position ni hatfield. ibig sabihin isa sa mga forward ang ilalagay niya sa reserve list.

as for wilson, siya ang malamang na mailagay kasi halos pareho sila ni hatfield ng laro.. hustle kung baga. mas maliit nga lang si wilson.

Welcome John Feriols - via UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENT...... after nilaglag ng ALASKA..... o ayan brad.... PF without letting go of Baguio.....

Hatfield will be arriving earlier than sked.... - April 6 na "daw" (eto me daw) :thumbsupsmiley:

what a great catch by BGK... matinding import nalang ang kailangan.

joseph yeo was traded to san miguel for bonbon custodio..

hindi parin pala kuntento ang smb sa current line up nila??

show me the manny.. wala man lang dating ung show na yun.

may filipino player pa pala na naglalaro sa US.. 6'10 daw siya half chinese.. naglaro sa ateneo eaglets few years back.. plus ung anak ni bobby parks na fil-am stands 6'4 naglalaro din sa US college ball. baka pwede subukan ng smart gilas itong mga to..

nasaba ko sa blog ni patricia hizon..

 

A team that just got a PG ain't done rehashing its back court yet.

 

Looks like they'll replace the one that was not exactly the beacon they were hoping for. They're getting someone who is very familiar with their newbie, someone who's known to be a mercenary, who finds ways to infiltrate.

 

This will happen real soon and is pretty much a done deal.

 

------------------

 

As for the 2 peace-pipe smoking teams... A lot of people are giving up on it. Both are proud (as they should) and do not want to budge on their terms.

 

The player who amazes with his hang time might just take the rapid route back to stardom because his career has been a bit jaded.

 

This might be a better option for him in the long run. He's got an old guru there who knows exactly what to do with him.

danny seigle ung player with hang time move.. going to ginebra with his old guru jong uichico who knows him very well.. what you think guys?

according to snow badua of nbn sports.. gusto daw kunin uli ng coke si cabagnot and willing sila maging conduit team sa trade ng ginebra-smb..

kung gusto nila si cabagnot, mas ok na mapunta sa ginebra si ross and lanete.. atleast si ross pg talaga laro di tulad ni cabagnot na ball hog.

just my opinion.. :thumbsupsmiley:

Excellent trade. :thumbsupsmiley: Baka si Yancy yung sinasabi hindi si Japeth. Hehe.

sayang lang inalis nila si reavis dati. mas gusto ko parin si reavis kesa kay yancy... pero ok na rin atleast may center na.

eto nabasa ko sa facebook account ni snow badua ng nbn sports.. one comment says..

"Eto ang latest, this came from a trusted source from smc... may malaking

pagbabalasa daw ng players ang gagawin ng san miguel beermen before the

start of 2nd conference, apat (4) na players daw ang itetrade ng smb

tatlo dito key players, para sa dalawang dominant players from other

teams... may malaking pagbabalasa din daw ...na mangyayari sa Ginebra....

may conduent team na kasama dito, naglaro sa wild card at quarters..."

"actually, dpat nun pang elimination nangyari to,

pero dhil sa magandang performance ng smb nung elim. di natuloy,

pero sa nangyari sa smb ngayon, mukhang tuluy na tuluy na..."

is this a fact? where did you get this? i never knew that players can control their fate on which team they would like to play with..if that's the case ilan na kaya dapat ang reserved players ng ginebra ngayon?

have read this in some reliable sites. nilagay nila si eman sa unprotected reserve list para eventually itrade sa ginebra. didn't work out kasi maraming team nakipagnegotiate kay eman, but he decided to go to alaska. naghabol naman smb kay eman, and even threatened to sue him (through their attorneys). pero wala rin sila nagawa dahil nilagay nila sa unprotected reserve list.

Jason Dixon of the Philippine Patriot is also a good choice for an import.

above height limit si jason dixon. height limit for this conference is 6'6. dapat gawin na nilang 6'8 height limit. noon kasi maliliit pa mga players specially center positions kaya ganyan height limit nila pag commisioner's cup noon. ngayon 6'6 may mga small forwards na tayong ganyan.

Sana kunin ulit si Crisano ng Ginebra. Crowd drawer din yung taong ito. comical pero serious (hirap intindihin, no?) Serious siya pero comical ang nasa isip ng ka barangay. Di naman malaki ang salary tyak ni Crisano. Malaki. May ibubuga naman ang playing his heart's out naman kapag pinapasok (kulang lang talaga sa natural skills). Pam balya lang naman kina Thoss or Eman. Teka, bakit siya tinaggal sa Barako? Attitude problem? Wala nang pang sweldo? Gusto si Bubba ang muse ng team? Ano kaya ang dahilan? Loves naman siya ng Ginebra Barangay, di ba? (*kaysa naman kay Homer Se:)

siguro wala nang pangsweldo.. umalis si john arigo sa barako bull noon dahil hindi raw siya nasswelduhan. even nung umalis sila cyrus baguio sa redbull may mga back pay pa silang di nabigay na ung new team nalang nila ang nagbayad.

according to ABAP, with the proper training and exposure, he might be able to deliver a gold or even a silver in the asian games bwahahaha hellooooooo paging ginebra!!! baka pwede nyong kunin ito si crisano panapat sa malalaki ng alaska :thumbsupsmiley:

i've already read this topic in other site. diba masyado na atang matanda si crisano para magshift pa sa boxing? he's already 34 yrs. old turning 35. tsaka diba nagka injury pa siya dati sa isang motorcycle accident? which almost ended his basketball career kaya nga matagal siyang di nakapaglaro.

Wow! Are there rumors of HBK retiring?

back read ka nalang.. may nabasa ako na sinabi ni HBK magreretire na siya.

So, mas magaling talaga si Cone kaysa kay Jong. :thumbsupsmiley: Sarap ngang maglaro sa Ginebra kasi parating homecourt advantage. Bangko pa rin ang magiging papel niya sa Alaska with Sonny Thoss manning the middle.

tingin ko sa ginebra mas bangko si eman.. si reavis nga nabangko dati sa ginebra. ayaw ni coach jong ng malalaki.. mas gusto niya puro guard at forward nasa court. para mabilis ang game. unlike sa alaska may system sila na triangle and half court set.. mas magagamit si eman dun.

UNG ISANG SHOW NG IRON CHEF (FINALS NA ATA YUN) NAGLABAN YUNG CHINESE AT ISANG EUROPEAN CHEF. YUNG EUROPEAN CHEF NAGLUTO NG TINAWAG NIYANG "RESTING CHICKEN IN A STRAW". APPARENTLY, YUN YUNG PINAUPONG MANOK NATIN DITO SA PILIPINAS.

Si Juwan Howard pa.. :upside:

 

IMO, short term goal lang si camby.. once makarecover sina Oden and Przybilla, drop na ulit yan..

Camby is 35yrs old already and may history ng injury..

 

Im interested to see Andre miller + Camby on the same team again, 3x sila nakapasok sa playoffs nung nasa Denver sila..

according to Camby, part ng responsibility niya sa portland eh turuan si oden. so, i think medyo magtatagal din siya sa portland.

tingin nyo mga dude ano problem sa lineup ng Ginebra?

 

san ngkulang?may dapat b itrade?cno at san san dpat itrade at kanino?

 

for me....kulang tlg cla sa malaki...sa power forward position....

 

trade nman...trade Cyrus....san? sa BK kc cguro gamay n nya system ni coach yeng...kapalit...either JR Quiñahan or c Belga....

 

opinion ko lng nman un...

kaso siya nga ang nanghingi ng trade dati sa BK kasi ayaw niya kay coach yeng. kaya hindi pwede ung trade na yun.

holding the 8th spot possible...

 

wag nman sanang pati si Camby eh sumama sa listahan nina ODEN at Pryzbilla... keep ur fingers crossed!

pag nangyari pa ito, patawas na sila baka may sumpa sa mga center ng portland.. :blink:

ipasok dapat ng Ginebra yung coaching staff nila.. malalakas yun..

o kaya gamitin nila pesky defense sa Alaska para mag-walkout din..

problema kahit yung tira ni coach jong hindi pumasok.. dapat pinasa niya nalang kay allan caidic baka pumasok pa.. :thumbsupsmiley:

kunin nila c eman...para may malaki...bangko kasi un sa smb...

naunahan na sila ng aces na makuha si eman...

 

Hey..I just hope..RICH ALVAREZ gets more playing time! I think he did well for playing less than 9min in the last quarter.

i agree.. hindi na nakahawak ng bola si thoss nung binantayan ni alvarez, unlike nung si villanueva nagbabantay laging naiikutan pag low post..

Effective ang 4 guards combination kung meron kang isang gaya ni Menk (o maski Mamaril pag maganda ang laro), it worked wonder for them in the past but it is a different story against alaska.

yun nga ang problem... ang effective laban sa isang team, ay hindi nangangahulugang effective din sa isa pang team.. pwedeng maganda ang kinalabasan nung tactic nila sa talk and text, pero kung hindi naging effective sa alaska dapat magiba naman sila ng game plan..

Filipino-American Chris Lutz, a six-foot-two shooting guard from Marshall University, will be added to the lineup of Smart Gilas when they play in a tournament in Australia. Any guys know anything about him? only knew is that he's avering almost 43% in 3 pt. range..

NEWS ABOUT SAMPSON...

He’s apparently back in the US but claims to still be under contract with Gilas. He also asserts that the Smart Communications backed organization still has financial obligations to fulfill.

Sampson wrote that “December’s payment that was owed to me was late. Under my contract, they owed me a payment by January 1st, no later, well before we left for Qatar and Dubai. If it wasn’t paid, my contract states that I didn’t have to play or practice. I wasn’t obligated to play in Qatar or Dubai”

“I tried to play through the injury because I like the guys on the team. They expected me to go out and risk my knee, while I haven’t even been paid from the first month.” He added that “the (Gilas) team didn’t meet numerous contractual things. I had a bigger deal in China, but the team wanted to keep me so they kept upping their offer to meet, that’s why the process of me signing took so long. Unfortunately, from the beginning all those things put in the contract to get me to stay weren’t met, late and missed payments, and other things promised in the contract couldn’t be delivered”.

Newly installed Smart Gilas team manager Frankie Lim came to the defense of the organization and said “we paid him” and that he thinks that this is all a “big lie. SBP’s Executive Director Noli Eala was supervising the squad prior to Lim and refuses to comment at this time. Sampson also made remarks on Eala’s motives on ostensibly starting the program “only to get back at the PBA for what they did to him”.

“The whole impression is he just didn’t want to play for some reason. He has a history for refusing to play. It was an important game and the team needed him. The fact is, he signed a contract and he should have played. He said he was hurting but everybody was sore. You got to play over that. It’s not like he had an ACL and he was being asked to play”. Lim also reasoned that Sampson has a reputation for being soft and for complaining a lot.

In the following round, Sampson criticized the team for being disorganized and having a lot of unqualified personnel. He had callous remarks towards the coaching staff particularly the assistant coaches whom he feels do not have the proper tools. “How is someone in their life under 5 feet who never played in the post in their life gonna be a big man coach and show me stuff? Someone under 5 feet can be a great coach, don’t get me wrong, but to be a big man coach and have never played in the post or even played high level ball? C’mon now.”

Frankie Lim simply said that “if you have respect, you don’t say that”, again putting Sampson’s character in question. “He should have showed respect for coaches who have been patient with him.” Well, for me, I don’t think Toroman played post in his life either but I’m sure he can show what a big man should do in the post within his system and gives strict instructions to his assistant coaches on how he’d like it done. He did lead the Iranian national team to victory in the 2007 Fiba-Asia championships and won a slot for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing by maximizing his 7’2” behemoth Hamed Haddadi who now is a mainstay for the Memphis Grizzlies. But if that was howSampson felt, then we can’t do anything about that.

Next round, Sampson went for the jugular and said that he slept on the floor for his first 5 days because his condo didn’t have a bed. Lim finds this accusation preposterous since they got a fully furnished condo for him. “Any import we have in Talk and Text (his former team) we put in a condo or hotel. We’re not that stupid. Look at the logic. Are you saying that Smart does not have money? I don’t think so.” Lim just countered every single punch coming from Sampson. He also tried to go for the knockout by saying “why will you believe something he says when he’s a head case and feels that everyone owes him something?”

But despite the bad light on Jamal, he says he loves the Philippines. “I signed for less money because I love the country, how nice and friendly the fans are, and the players on the team, who are a great group to be around. Also, the country probably has the most supportive fans I’ve seen anywhere, to be honest, and that I loved.” One has to wonder though if that love is reciprocated. Lim just finds all of it “funny and ridiculous”.

With all the tragic experience with CJ Giles and Jamal Sampson, recruiting becomes a harder task for Smart Gilas. Frankie Lim is hard at work presenting all the options to Coach Rajko Toroman who is set to leave for the US on February 15 to see potential candidates in action. One of the top aspirants Jameel Watkins who played for Shell and Magnolia in the PBA is in town to try out for 3 days.

nadepensahan kasi ni dela cruz si intal... hirap kay jong minsan ginagawa niyang 4th spot si salvacion.. gumagawa ng 4 guard combination. eh hindi naman ganun kabagal frontline ng alaska. ayun nadadale sila sa half court ng alaska.

subukan ni coach jong mag iba ng game plan. magkaiba ang laro ng talk and txt at alaska... ang pwede sa isa, hindi ibig sabihin pwede rin sa isa pa..
