isa lang sir ang dahilan kung bakit wala masyadong touches sa ilalim yung twin towers at malamya ang laro - pag nakuha na ni rodgers ang bola, di na umiikot ang bola. dribble tapos shoot...mintis. sa madaling salita SWAPANG!!! BUWAKAW!!! if we were to look at the stat sheets for the last 6 games of ginebra, rodgers would be lucky if he had 10 assists...TOTAL.

 

Ok lang sana kung laging shoot eh...kaso makikita mo laging tira....mintis....tira...mintis...rinse and repeat lang....ang problema dun...since laging outside shot ang mga tira nya...hirap makakuha ng offensive rebounds....DAHIL...nde magkasabay sina japhet and slaughter....and sa sobrang baba and bagal ni rodgers nde din sya nakakarebound...but ang pinakamasama sa lahat ang sagwa ng field goal percentage!!!!! Kahit siguro kakampi mo si rodman....magsasawa yun kakarebound ng mintis na mga tira ni rodgers!!!! Tendency tuloy ng mga players ng gins...pagnakuha nila bola ...tira na din sila kasi alam nilang nde na babalik yun bola eh...wala ng mga plays...kaya nagiging papogian nalang laro nila...as what caguioa said in his tweets....(although papogi din cya)

And hinde talaga SF laro ni rodgers...more of PF....walang slashing moves...bagal ng penetration...alang depensa.....kahit naman yun imports ng san mig and SMB...nde impressive eh pero masisipag maglaro...dumepensa and rebound...antagal bago palitan eh...inunahan pa ng air21...

Leon Rodgers put on standby as Ginebra steps up search for new import, says agent

GINEBRA import Leon Rodgers has been put on stand-by as the team stepped up its search for a replacement in a bid to revive its flagging campaign in the PBA Commissioner's Cup, his agent said on Saturday.

 

Rodgers' agent Sheryl Reyes said the import has already been notified by no less than active Ginebra assistant coach Juno Sauler that the team is looking for someone to take his place.

 

“Coach (Juno Sauler) spoke to him (Rodgers) and explained the situation. Leon respects coach Juno for being man enough to tell him (that he’s being replaced),” Reyes told Spin.ph.

 

However, Reyes said Ginebra did not rule out the possibility that Rodgers would still play in the Kings' next outing against Meralco on Wednesday should the team fail to bring in a replacement in time.

 

“The decision has been made but they are just waiting for the new replacement (import),” Reyes said.

 

Reyes declined to name who Ginebra is pursuing, although the name of former Los Angeles Lakers back-up big man Josh Powell is once again being floated around by persons with inside knowledge of the situation.

 

Ginebra insiders had earlier revealed that Powell has "priced himself out of the market."

 

Rodgers has averaged 30.3 points, 10.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists in his first six games in the pro league - four of which Ginebra lost to stand on the brink of elimination.

 

The 6-5 Rodgers sat out for much of the fourth period in Ginebra’s most recent game on Wednesday against Air21 before being sent back with four seconds to go and the Kings in need of a game-tying basket.

 

The 33-year-old Rodgers, however, missed a shot at redemption by flubbing a jumper at the buzzer.

 

Ginebra has three games remaining in its elimination schedule, starting with Meralco on Wednesday, followed by matches against Alaska (April 13) and Rain or Shine (April 20).

 

The former Northern Illinois standout still joined the team’s practice on Saturday morning at the Green Meadows in Libis, Quezon City, where he was accidentally elbowed in the ribs during the tail end of the scrimmage.

 

Reyes, though, said the injury was nothing serious.

 

On the other hand, a member of the Lakers’ back-to-back championships in the 2009 and 2010 seasons, is coming off a stint with the Guangdong South Tigers where he averaged 15.0 points and 9.9 rebounds in 42 games.

Ginebra trying to close deal with former LA Laker Josh Powell as replacement for import Leon Rodgers

  • http://contents.spin.ph/image/joshpowell.jpg

A major sticking point in the negotiations is Josh Powell's salary, which is expected considering the two-time NBA champion received a seven-figure compensation in his final year in the NBA in the 2010-2011 season with the Atlanta Hawks.

BARANGAY Ginebra is trying to bring in former Los Angeles Lakers center Josh Powell in the next two days in a bid to rescuscitate its flagging campaign in the PBA Commissioner's Cup, a source told Spin.ph.

 

According to a source, Ginebra is now ironing out the final details of its negotiations with the highly regarded Powell, in the hope of fielding him in as Leon Rodgers' replacement in the team's final three games of the eliminations starting with a match against Meralco on Wednesday.

 

A separate source bared that the former North Carolina State Wolfpack will arrive either Monday or Tuesday, depending on the outcome of the final negotiations.

 

"Mahigpit ang impormasyon ngayon. Puro management lang muna ang details. Iniipit nila ang info. Pero mukhang si Powell na nga," said the source, who bared that Rodgers is still practicing with Ginebra and on standby in case the negotiations with Powell hit a snag.

 

Ginebra fans should be pleased with the arrival of Powell, judging from their response when his planned hiring was first reported by Spin.ph last week.

 

A major sticking point in the negotiations is Powell's salary, which is expected considering the two-time NBA champion received a seven-figure compensation in his final year in the NBA in the 2010-2011 season with the Atlanta Hawks.

 

His last declared salary was at placed at US$854,389 for a year, which was given by his last Chinese Basketball League team, Guangdong Southern Tigers, based on the stats provided by a basketball website.

 

The maximum salary allowable for PBA imports is US$20,000 a month.

 

"Maraming demands yung Powell. Yun nga reason why hindi nag work-out yung unang negotiation two weeks ago di ba?" said the source. "Gusto niya ng VIP treatment aside from the high salary."

 

Powell is known for his sweet touch and strength inside the paint, as gleaned from his averages of 15 points, 9.9 rebounds and 1.6 assists in his 2014 season with Guangdong.

 

[see highlight sof his performance with the Olympiacos team in Greece here]

 

The 31-year old South Carolina native is best remembered for filling in the shoes left by an injured Andrew Bynum in the 2009 and 2010 championship campaign of the Los Angeles Lakers.

 

Aside from the Lakers and the Hawks, Powell also played for the Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Clippers before he moved to China, Puerto Rico and Greece. He also had stints in Russia and Italy before he joined the NBA in 2005.

Sana lang... yung "VIP treatment at overpricing" na naireport eh, magmatch sa talent neto ni Powell.

 

RISKY!!! but if he is that good as touted to be, then fans of the most popular team in the land deserve it. ginebra and its fans have been wallowing in the doldrums...waiting for that elusive championship. management owes it to the paying public. ang malaking tanong...with ato and company still calling the shots and the presence of a new import, makita na kaya natin ang never-say-die na laro ng ginebra?

Hopefully he fits in the system.

 

kung madaming hinihingi hanaf na lng ng iba..

 

mag ALL-Fil n lng muna tutal hanggang naghahanap ng pamalit.

 

sa dami ng Foreign Player wla bng makitang hindi paimportanteng tao bk sakit lng yan ng ulo...

 

2 time NBA champion kasi kaya medyo paimportante. Pero sana nga lang eh he plays as he is billed.

 

Anywho, I'll try to get some inside info from the Jaworski page regarding the offers to coach BGSM. I'll post it right away once admin responds.

yan ang nakakakaba ke powell... wala man, parang primadona na.... anyway... tingnan natin sa wednesday

if he is that good and delivers the championship to ginebra, wala akong problema sa pagiging primadona niya...ang mahirap kung puro hangin lang...but from the sports columns that i have read so far and film clips on youtube, mukha naman may ibubuga...specially coming from a stint in china.

 

Hopefully he fits in the system.

hopefully the living legend gives it a very serious thought. puro kantiyaw na ang inaabot ng mga ginebra supporters. ginebra needs a respectable and knowledgeable coach.
