Barangay Ginebra Kings

[will robie]

Ditch Blatche and replace him with Brownlee. Brownlee is willing to play for flag and country. MVP group, tabi na kayo and let the best conglomerate in the country run the national basketball program. SMC has already guided the country to a gold in the FIBA Asia and FIBA Asia U18 in 1982 starring Hec Calma and Alfie Almario. Of course, credit should also be given to thr greatest coach in national team history, Ron Jacobs. At least, among the coaches I saw.

i honestly believe that the best player at the moment to be naturalized is brownlee. not only is he a good player (notwithstanding his 6'5" height) but is more than willing and dedicated to play for flag and country. his children are studying so his willingness to carry the philippine flag can never be questioned. ang problema lang, he is not the type of player that sbp and reyes want. @#*! that's a lot of b@#*!t...i'd say ditch sbp and reyes. the coach in katipunan can do the job. ilang taon na tayong naghihintay.

 

Mas ok sana kung multiple corpo ang magsupport sa basketball team/s natin..

SMC/MVP/CHOOKS/ALASKA/MP

kung pupwede lang partner. kaso....ayaw ko nang ituloy at baka kung ano pa ang maisulat ko. but honestly, for the sake of philippine badketball, everybody must put their acts together. at the end of the day, this is what all pinoy basketball afficionados want, i.e., for the philippines to regain its lofty stature, at least in asia.

If stan and jbl cant be together in gilas, i will pick jbl anytime...

 

I hope ginebra and the rest of the stakeholders would agree in sending the best bigmen in the league (which probably are with the smc franchises)

 

Greg, junmar, sanggalang, japeth, almazan, kelly, abueva, jbl, la, mgr, ross, lassiter, belga

 

Ginebra will have 4 players loaned to the rp team...

Update lang mga chief.

 

After months of recovery, Art Dela Cruz is projected to finally debut for Barangay Ginebra in the upcoming PBA Governor's Cup. As per Dela Cruz and head coach Tim Cone, they are looking into fielding him starting around October.

 

"Sabi ni Coach [Tim Cone], middle of the conference. My goal is October, second week of October. But my focus right now is rehab nga, and then sabi rin sa akin ni Coach na this time, i-sure mo na 100% ka na. And loaded naman yung team so there's no hurry," said Dela Cruz Sunday afternoon during Ginebra's victory party with fans for their latest championship.

 

"He's due back maybe in October, but we'll see. We'll play it by ear by that time, we're not gonna push him," added Cone.

 

Dela Cruz first ruptured his Achilles tendon during a Gilas Pilipinas practice in March 2017. He was still a player of Blackwater Elite then. When he was shipped to Brgy. Ginebra in a trade that involved Chris Ellis, Raymond Aguilar, and Dave Marcelo in August 2017, he re-injured his tendon before he had his Ginebra debut.

 

It has been 17 months and counting since Dela Cruz last played a game in the PBA.

 

"Medyo matagal na. Talagang maging patient lang ako, iniisip ko din 'yung long-term eh, hindi lang itong conference na ito," he said.

 

In those long months, Dela Cruz focused on his injury's rehabilitation and understanding the sophisticated system of Cone's triangle offense.

 

"Learning na rin yung triangle sa akin. Actually, bago lang ako sa triangle, most of my career is run and gun sa college [san Beda] eh. Ito slow ball kaya maganda rin pag galing ka sa injury, di ka masyadong masusunog," explained the former NCAA star.

 

Interestingly, the versatile forward is also trying out the point guard role.

 

"Actually, nagpa-practice na ako tapos ang position na nilalagay sa akin ni Coach, point guard. Ang laking bagay na noong sa college naumpisahan ko na. Pero ngayon, primary na eh. Primary na na point, kaya point going from power forward," said the 6-foot-4 player.

 

As the Kings still celebrate their latest conquered land now - the Commissioner's Cup, there is no rush for Dela Cruz. After all, Ginebra seems to have long term plans for him in the pipeline.

 

"After a second Achilles surgery, we do not want to rush him back. He's only 25, so he's got a lot of basketball ahead of him. And I keep telling him: it's not about this conference, it's about the next 8-10 years, that's when we want him for. We want him ready for the next 8-10 years," Cone shared.

 

This is not a surprise given Cone's high regard on the do-it-all forward. He considers his game as a marriage of Scottie Thompson's and Joe Devance's.

 

"We were choosing between him [Dela Cruz] and Scottie [Thompson] when he came out of the [2015] draft, and we chose Scottie which was obviously a great pick. But Art was a close second, just because we thought that his skills were very unique, similar to what Scottie does, but in a bigger version," Cone explained.

 

"Art to me is kind of like the in-between Scottie and Joe, kind of right in between those two guys."

 

Dela Cruz has so far posted norms of 12.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.7 steals in the PBA.

 

Aside from Dela Cruz, Cone also targets to line-up new acquisition from Globalport Julian Sargent who is recuperating from a shoulder injury.

i honestly believe that the best player at the moment to be naturalized is brownlee. not only is he a good player (notwithstanding his 6'5" height) but is more than willing and dedicated to play for flag and country. his children are studying so his willingness to carry the philippine flag can never be questioned. ang problema lang, he is not the type of player that sbp and reyes want. @#*! that's a lot of b@#*!t...i'd say ditch sbp and reyes. the coach in katipunan can do the job. ilang taon na tayong naghihintay.

 

Reyes can be ditched but the SBP can't be ditched, chief. Yan ang humahawak ng basketball program natin. Pero puedeng palitan yung braintrust. Since we already have two behemoths in Kraken and Gregzilla, Brownlee is a welcome wing. I honestly think we can win the FIBA-Asia with Brownlee as our naturalized player and Tab or Tim as coach. Parang nagiging BAP ulit itong SBP.

yan na nga ang problema chief. we can't deny the fact that sbp, the governing body for philippine basketball, is still controlled by mvp. greg at center, junemar at pf and brownlee at sf will surely be a deadly triumvirate. add LA, stanley, wright, japeth, norwood then we have a formidable team. coach? no brainer - coach tab.

Kahit SMC players na lang, chief. Tab is the coach and JBL the naturalized player.

wow training to be a point guard. Mukhang the next JDV na talaga looking at the future na tayo.

I hope he makes an immediate impact once reactivated.

amen to that chief. nagbabasa kaya ng mtc ang mga nasa sbp? hehehehe

Sana meron. Hehe. Kung meron man, I have one thing to say: take out Reyes for Tab.

If I may, ang Japan me 2 naturalized players in Ira Brown and Nick Fazekas, baka pwede na gumamit din ng 2 naturalized players ang Gilas-Pilipinas?
