gift_of_game Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 a bit funny that you mention professional since I do hear that some schools (over)pay to win over talented recruits...glue guys are nice and always welcome. if the local hoops league second-guesses their choice of raw talent, again, that belies the fact that player development isn't given enough emphasis at the pro level...which makes sense since there's a limited number of roster spots to begin with---who's got the time to wait on a bunch of kids?

ayasadai Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 But both Wesley and LA deserve to be in the PBA. Mas surprising na nakapasok sina Jec Chia at Macky Escalona sa PBA. Both LA and Wesley went to San Miguel. Another surprising is itong si Membrere na nasa PBA pa hangang ngayun with the cost-cutting Red Bull. Quote Link to comment

ayasadai Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 perhaps he's lucky na he's with red bull na nagtitipid! Quote Link to comment
gift_of_game Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 mayaman naman yang sila Magnum, alam ko prominent ang pamilya niya sa probinsiya nila...kung nagtitipid na ang Red Bull baka mag-disband na rin yan ah... Quote Link to comment
ayasadai Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 as of now hindi pa... pero ang pinaka star na nila sa team, sina baguio and espinas na lang.... wala na sina EVil, Penissi, Junthy, Alvarez..... then sooner, te-trade na rin nila yang 2ng yan pag contract time na! actually, cyrus just renewed his contract pero hindi pa ata sya max this year, pero next season, sigurado trade na rin yan!

Jongkers Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 (edited) ^the guys have super-agent types and it helped them get jobs in the league. parang wala rin naman kasing formal scouting system ang PBA eh so there's a tendency to go by name rather than actual performance. pound for pound, there's probably more raw talent in the NCAA, taob lang sila sa media mileage. that said, I agree with jong, the league seriously needs to expand. That expansion thing is not gonna happen though.On the contrary, what happens is one franchise gobbling up the other franchises to become one mega-franchise (San Miguel, Purefoods, Coca-Cola and Ginebra). :thumbsdownsmiley: I dunno, but as my former pro friend (NCAA star pero bangko for only one season sa PBA) said, mahirap raw makapasok at magtagal sa PBA kung hindi galing sa UAAP, specifically Ateneo or DLSU. Kasi raw, these players are already more or less assured na ring mada-draft since these alumni are the same guys running these giant companies. But I agree: NCAA has the better juniors pool.Mas mayaman lang talaga ang alumni ng UAAP member schools. Edited December 4, 2008 by Jongkers Quote Link to comment

gift_of_game Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 well for one, if they could expand, they would've done it already, right? problema kasi it's still an old-boys-club and they want to protect their own interests any way they can. the mere fact that they still have this old rule where competing brands can't join is...pathetic. as for said super-agents, well, I do know for a fact that a certain group of alumni went out of their way to help a certain player from their school get drafted first overall...not to say that the dude didn't deserve it then (he did have a dominant senior campaign and well, his draft class was lean anyway) but when you have guys like that working the phones for you, it goes a long way.

ayasadai Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 pwede pa naman mag expand kahit hindi competitor.... anjan ang harbour at hapee toothpaste!! expansion talaga ang solution para hindi masayang yung ibang talents.... sayang lang yung mga tipo nina kelvin dela pena and mark borboran sa bench ng alaska....
