Naku, kung si Jawo ang babalik sa Ginebra, parang na imagine ko ang ingay ingay na naman at super kawawa ang mga kalaban. Iba kasi style ni Jawo, may crowd appeal (pati pagmumura hahaha). May acting, may fire-in-his-eyes. tapos assistant niya si Francis Arnaiz at Ompong Segura. Tyak walang tigil na takbuhan sa court. Sina Caguioa at Jayjay ang style nila ni Francis Arnaiz nuon. Kaya lang tumatanda na yung fast and furious natin. Better look for someone in their mold. Jong is making the team look like pathetic na hindi naman. Pati nga fans, nadidismaya at nawawala ang cheering kapag di na pinapasok ni Jong yung mga exciting players.

Ginebra has a new import by the name of Mildon Ambres anyone heard of this guy ?

 

From Philstar's sports news:

 

Derby Ace, Ginebra sign new imports

By Nelson Beltran (The Philippine Star) Updated April 26, 2010 12:00 AM

 

 

PUERTO PRINCESA, Philippines – B-MEG Derby Ace and Barangay Ginebra are two teams returning from the PBA All-Star break with new imports in tow.

 

The Llamados have signed Cliff Brown to take over from Lorenzo Wade while the Kings took in Mildon Ambres to replace Awvee Storey.

 

Brown, teammate of Jai Lewis with the Toyota Alvark in the Japanese league, is already in town, joining the Llamados in practice in Manila yesterday, according to team manager Alvin Patrimonio.

 

Wade has been put on the injured list, thus, he can be reactivated anytime the team wishes to.

 

Brown, 25, is listed as a 6-foot-7 power forward, who’s veteran of the European league.

 

Ambres is also 25, fresh from a stint with the Idaho Stampede in the NBA Developmental League.

 

The Kings and the Llamados are tied with the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters at fourth place with identical 3-2 win-loss cards.

 

San Miguel leads the tourney with a 5-1 record, followed by Talk n Text at 5-2 and Coca-Cola at 4-3.

Mildon Ambres of Idaho Stampede Named Most Improved Player

DateFriday, April 16, 2010 at 05:31AM

 

NEW YORK, April 15, 2009 – Idaho Stampede guard Mildon Ambres was today named the 2009-10 NBA Development League’s Most Improved Player, as voted on by the 16 NBA D-League coaches. The award honors a player who demonstrated the most significant improvement on the court during the course of the year.

 

"I'm extremely happy for Mildon as he earns this well deserved award," said Stampede head coach Bob MacKinnon. "Being honored as the most improved player in a league that is all about development is such a great tribute to how hard Mildon worked and the dedication of the coaching staff this past season."

 

Ambres, one of two members of the Stampede to play in all 50 of the team’s games, earned 30 starts and averaged 14.5 points, 8.1 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 28.9 minutes. He scored in double figures 38 times, including a season-high 32 points in a 165-153 overtime victory over the Rio Grande Valley Vipers on March 31 in Boise. Ambres helped the Stampede to a 25-25 record on the season.

 

“Mildon demonstrated an unwavering commitment to his craft, working hard every night to improve all aspects of his game," said Chris Alpert, Vice President of Basketball Operations for the NBA D-League. "His dedication to improving his skills is directly in line with the NBA D-League's core mission of developing the top basketball prospects in the world and I congratulate Mildon on his impressive accomplishment."

 

Ambres becomes the first NBA D-League player to earn the honor.

Dean Henson's Report on his 'Sporting Chance'

 

Uichico’s gamble is Ambres will play with the same intensity he displayed in the D-League.

 

The downside is Ambres had a so-so varsity career. After averaging 21.2 points and 14 rebounds as a senior at Opelousas High School in 2001-02, Ambres joined the Louisiana State University varsity but couldn’t crack the lineup. He wound up sitting out two seasons before gaining eligibility at Southern Mississippi in 2004-05, averaging 7.7 points. In 2005-06, Ambres averaged 6.4 points in 31 games with the Golden Eagles then transferred to Southern Nazarene in the NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics).

 

At Southern Nazarene, Ambres finally hit his stride, averaging 15.2 points and 8.2 rebounds. He led the varsity to the Sooners Athletic Conference title, firing 24 points in Southern Nazarene’s 82-68 win over Northwestern Oklahoma State.

 

Ambres played for CSU Caudripol Brasov in Romania, averaging 18.1 points and 8.5 rebounds in 26 games in 2007-08 then suited up in the D-League.

rumors inside ginebra camp.. hinahanapan na uli ng trade si yancy de ocampo.

 

I also heard this rumor. Sabi ko nga sa early posts ko, wag maging masaya sa pagpasok ni Yancy. Mahinang player siya for his height. sayang ang laki niya. What we need is an exciting player. Si taulava nga, although matanda na, may lakas and may sigla pa. kung minsan parang leader ng cheering squad kapag nasa bench.
