Although Danding is top honcho sa San Miguel group, si Henry Cojuangco ang may say sa Ginebra, Danding's brother

Sabi mo pa! Talagang mas exciting manood ng collegiate basketball nowadays. Mas nasa puso nila. Ginebra? Hindi na nila sinusunod ang coach. Gusto nating bumalik ang bagsik ng Ginebra? Pido Jarencio is the answer! Kung hindi puwede na talaga si Big J!

 

I also feel that a motivator coach (and someone players respect) such as Pido or Jawo, is what the doctor calls for the ailing Gin Kings. The talents are already there. Just give him a strategist assistant/s (someone who knows the technical and the board plays) and they will be okay and competitive. More often than not, the coach's intangibles (diskarte, angas, persuasion, sipag, malasakit, etc.)can do the difference.

Sabi nga sa nabasa ko dati sa isang column sa pdi, tabla na daw ang Ginebra at pf in terms of popularity, I guess that is due with the way pf (or derby ace) plays and how they are motivated by their coach na although ma-drama talaga pero magaling mag-motivate at mag-design ng plays lalo na sa endgame or dire situations....

with the way jong's boys have been playing as of late, i will not be surprised if the fans start dwindling. and if this is true na tabla na ang kings and PF in terms of popularity, then this is really bad news for the smc franchise. kings really need a coach who could motivate and energize the players. paging mr. henry cojuangco, we need JA-WORS-KI...JA-WORS-KI

The Dean Says it Accurately:

Do or die for Ginebra

SPORTING CHANCE By Joaquin Henson (The Philippine Star) Updated July 14, 2010 12:00 AM

 

The PBA season will come to an abrupt end for Barangay Ginebra if the Kings don’t win over Alaska in Game 3 of their best-of-five quarterfinals series at the Araneta Coliseum tonight.

 

It’s been a topsy-turvy campaign for Ginebra with coach Joseph Uichico juggling holdovers, transferees and comebacking players in trying to find the chemistry that was once a hallmark of the storied franchise. So far, 21 players have seen action for Ginebra in the Fiesta Conference – a record high that Sta. Lucia Realty, with all its wheeling and dealing, couldn’t match.

 

Even Junthy Valenzuela, long in cold storage with injury issues, was reactivated by Uichico for a game. Cyrus Baguio and Billy Mamaril were traded midway the double-round eliminations to welcome Willie Miller and Mike Cortez in an already congested backcourt. Rudy Hatfield came back after a three-year layoff as injuries kept Eric Menk and J. C. Intal out of the lineup for a combined 16 games. Uichico has also struggled in finding the perfect import for Ginebra, starting with Awvee Storey and testing Mildon Ambdres and Denham Brown before settling for Chris Daniels.

 

Through it all, Uichico has managed to keep Ginebra’s head above water. The Kings wound up the eliminations with a 9-9 record despite losing their last three assignments and beat Rain Or Shine, 115-88, in a playoff to avoid dropping to the wildcards.

 

Daniels, 28, led the charge in thrashing the Elasto Painters for the last outright quarterfinals slot. But since that win, Daniels has hardly been a force in Ginebra’s two losses to Alaska in the quarterfinals. He’s been badly outplayed by the Aces’ Diamon Simpson.

 

Daniels can’t be considered an impact player in the mold of a Sammy Monroe or Gabe Freeman or Clif Brown. He won’t deliver eye-popping numbers. In fact, Daniels hasn’t even scored in the 20s in three games so far. If Daniels has the arsenal to explode, he’s got to show it tonight – or forever be chastised.

 

In Game 2 of the Alaska series, Ginebra had difficulty executing because of adjustment problems. The stats showed it glaringly. Uichico tried to give as many of his players the chance to display their wares but nobody could deliver consistently under time pressure. Only one Ginebra player logged more than 27 minutes – Daniels – while five Aces played at least 27. Ginebra’s bench produced 35 points to Alaska’s six but in the playoffs, the starters make the difference, not the relievers.

 

Alaska concentrated on high percentage shots, staying away from three-point distance where the Aces were only 2-of-8, while Ginebra shot 9-of-26 triples. As a result, Alaska had a higher field goal percentage, .435 to .405. The Kings’ inability to cover for each other in defense – another sign of lack of chemistry – was evident in giving Alaska 28 free throw attempts. Ginebra, in contrast, took only nine foul shots.

 

JayJay Helterbrand, Mark Caguioa, Intal, Miller and Ronald Tubid never went to the stripe and were a combined 12-of-40 from the floor. Alaska’s cohesiveness was bolstered by its 24 assists to Ginebra’s 19 and 47 rebounds to the Kings’ 44.

 

Despite the statistical discrepancies, Ginebra could’ve won it if only Sunday Salvacion hit a triple in the dying seconds. Alaska held on to win, 84-82.

 

Dating back to the Philippine Cup, Alaska has now beaten Ginebra in eight of their last 10 encounters. The Aces blanked the Kings in the semifinals last conference.

 

Uichico has four ex-Alaska players in the Ginebra cast – Miller, Cortez, Willie Wilson and John Ferriols. They know coach Tim Cone’s system by heart and could provide the key in disrupting Alaska’s precision execution in the halfcourt.

 

The winner of the series moves on to face No. 1 Talk ‘N’ Text in the semifinals.

Putek na chemistry yan... ilang conference nang hinahanap yan, hanggang ngayon hindi pa din nakikita. Ibig bang sabihin nagaala-tsamba lang si Jong sa rotation ng mga tao? Yung katwiran na chemistry, dapat nasa first 2 games lang ng conference. Pag may taong napalitan, dapat alam na kung sino ang puedeng pumalit. Dapat kilala na ng coach ang strengths at weaknesses ng mga players nya.

at last, nanalo din ang bgk over alaska... pero hangang saan naman kaya aabot itong bgk? kailangan na talaga magpalit ng coaching staff ng bgk. i doubt kung manalo pa sila sa friday...

[rakizta]

malay naman natin ma-sweep yung last 2 games......hehehe

[photographer]

maski ma sweep ang last two games, dapat pa ring palitan si Jong. And trade some players. Tumatanda na nawawalan na ng fire sa paglalaro with the exception of Menk.
