Gilas article but i put in here to put some premium to kabarangay LA

 

so LA was cut from Gilas..

 

as the only legit PG in that roster, it means they dont need his on court leadership anymore

While I respect the decision of the Gilas coaches led by Tab Baldwin, I just can’t understand how they can leave out these 2 players who bring so many intangibles to the game.

LA Tenorio is a veteran of so many international battles, the national basketball team could certainly use his experience and leadership. Same with Calvin Abueva – he typifies the LabanPilinas and PUSO battlecry of the team, his hustle and energy is a must-have of the team, especially because of our homecourt advantage in the upcoming Olympic Qualifier.

I know the Gilas coaching staff have their reasons, I just hope they didn’t choose Ryan Reyes and Troy Rosario over Tenorio and Abueva because they belong to the MVP group. While they deserve to be in the Final 12, I just don’t agree giving up Tenorio and Abueva’s spot just for them.

See, even PBA Head Statistician and SMB Assistant Coach Peter Martin agree. http://community.hoops.ph/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/biggrin.png

If you don’t agree, can you please explain what the advantages are of having Reyes and Rosario over Tenorio and Abueva? If you say height, don’t tell that to Calvin who has better rebounding averages than taller players in the PBA

decision yun ng gilas... they did not see the value of a natural point guard over sa mga scoring guards nila .... i can't speak about abueva, as of today, i don't like his style...

 

will cheer Gilas not because they were bolstered by the MVP-group players but because they are representing the Philippines

Ako...i dont like abueva.....but i respect his playing style and attitude....saw him played for gilas nun asian games and im quite impressed with him....pan international laro nya...banggaan and alot of hustle...kaya tingin ko mali talaga na cya ang nalaglag....over ryan reyes....sana nga decision ito ni tab....at nde na naman sumingit ang MVP group...

 

Regarding LA naman....sad to say....nde na cya nababagay sa gilas...he had his glory days....sobrang liit at nde makabantay sa opposing guards...malalaki at sanay sa banggaan mga international guards....mabubogbog lang si LA dun...

After Gilas exit, LA Tenorio doesn’t mind backup role to Ginebra rookie Scottie Thompson

“Actually natuwa nga ako because Scottie took advantage yung pagkawala namin ni Greg,” Tenorio said, noting the newfound confidence he saw from the former NCAA Most Valuable Player.

“I think it’s about time na mag-take charge na talaga siya as early as now para ma-feel na niya and I think this conference, siya ang aabangan talaga natin,” he added.

Thompson, Ginebra’s 5th pick in last year’s PBA Rookie Draft, scored 10 of his 12 points in a strong start in the opening quarter of the team’s 127-114 win against Tropang TNT 2 days ago.
