Greenboy27 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Yea dapat shooter at slasher kaya naman sa ilalim ng twin tower , si Japet dapat rebounder na lang muna Quote Link to comment
tuckandres Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 parang klangan ng ginebra ng scorer na kaya magcreate for himself, parang sila strothers noong kasagsagan nila. Quote Link to comment
*kalel* Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 They need a slasher and a perimeter shooter who can play help defense Quote Link to comment
Agent_mulder Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I doubt kung kayang bantayan ng twin towers yung malalaking import. They are too soft. Kelangan nila yung versatile. Yung pwede maglaro inside and outside. I think denzel bowles is a good choice. Me point ka, kaso ang rights kina Blakely at Bowles ay nasa star pa din yata at 'di nila basta-basta i-waive o iibigay ang rights na 'yunMalkaas yan pinakawalan lang ng tnt dahil sa nba contract nya .. pero all around 3 guy un naman butas sa ginebra 3 kasi walang wingman na shooter.. Othyus Jeffers was once an NBA D-League MVP, so that might count for something. Sana legit scorer import, madali na mga rebounds madami naman bigs ginebra Sana nga he's the right import for them Quote Link to comment
Hari ng Spakol Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) NBA D-League Showcase Diary: Day 1 — Catching up with Tim Cone. Tim Cone on his plan to field Othyus Jeffers as Ginebra import: “It’s not the best import,” “it’s the import that fits you best.” So the next time that Cone and I crossed paths, Wednesday in Santa Cruz, California, at the NBA D-League Showcase, I had to know: Now that he’d completed his first conference as head coach of the Barangay, what part of the job had taken him by surprise? “I always knew there was more pressure coaching Ginebra than other teams,” Cone said. “But I didn’t really experience it. You’re constantly under the spotlight. Social media is just crazy. You really feel like you’re letting a lot of people down if you don’t succeed. “Also, I didn’t anticipate how hard teams play against Ginebra,” he added. “We never saw a B-game of anybody. We’d watch [opponents] on video, and then they’d play us and they’d be ten times better.” Before taking over at Ginebra, Cone had coached 26 years in the PBA, he’d led his teams into dozens of do-or-die Game 7 situations, and he’d won more championships than any other coach in the history of the league. Yet to hear him tell it, even the most impressive coaching resume in the history of Philippine basketball couldn’t prepare him to know how it feels to stand in the Big J’s shadow. *****Cone had flown in from Manila to scout imports at this year’s Showcase. Even though he had no immediate need for a reinforcement at Ginebra — Cone has already declared his plan to field former Talk ‘N Text stud Othyus Jeffers back-to-back in this PBA season’s Commissioner’s and Governor’s Cups — “Yeah, it’s a gamble,” Cone told me about his plan to field Jeffers, who stands less than 6’5”, in the upcoming Commissioner’s Cup, when the height limit for imports will be 6’9”. It seems especially risky because it’s Cone’s first import conference with Ginebra, and a slow start would likely lead to calls to bring in an import who matches up more evenly with other teams’ reinforcements. “But, if I may say without sounding like a know-it-all, I think the whole thing has been really well thought out,” Cone said. “We did our homework and we decided what’s gonna be best for our team.” The driving factor behind Cone’s decision to go small with his import in the next conference was to preserve minutes for Slaughter and Aguilar, similar to San Miguel’s decision to play AZ Reid alongside Fajardo last season. “If you have a big import who has to play inside, then you’re gonna be playing him 40-44 minutes per game,” Cone explained. “That means you’re gonna be splitting the time between Japeth and Greg. I’m not going to take the strength of my team and put it on the bench.” Besides, Cone pointed to Jeffers’s previous achievements — he was the NBA D-League’s 2013-14 MVP — and suggested that even if he stands a few inches shorter than other teams’ imports, Jeffers might not be giving up much to them. “Othyus is a special kind of 6’5” player,” Cone told me. “He played power forward in the D-League. He defended 6’9”, 6’10” guys all the time. Plus, no local is gonna be able to guard him, and no import at 6’9” is gonna be able to guard him either. “It’s not the best import,” Cone continued, “it’s the import that fits you best.” Wednesday, in Santa Cruz, the still-new Ginebra coach sounded pretty darn sure that he had found that player in Othyus Jeffers, but then again here he was at the D-League Showcase, scouting more imports, noting plays and actions he liked and disliked, and 27 years into his coaching career still carrying himself like a student of the game.

If BGSM sana pumasok, I really feel we have a big chance and lagi pang puno ang venue. basketball is a game of match ups.... pag hindi naka match up ang isang team, most probably yun ang natatalo... pero bilog talaga bola... me mga instances na nananalo ang hindi inaasahan... kaya maganda ang series para walang chamba hehehe among the teams in the pba, i think only alaska can brag na they had dominated ginebra more than any team especially nung time ni cone sa kanila ... the only season i remember na hirap si cone at aces was nung 1997 yata.. the boars had marlou, noli, vince, pido, val etc... i remember cone's interview sa start ng season na yun.. 'gordon's gin is the team of the future'... and after being beaten by jawo et al nung 2nd conference title, ang sabi ni tim, 'the future is now'...

Chris averaged 7.9 pts in his nba career. That is something. Quote Link to comment
