Kazekage.Gaara Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 "A Ginebra insider believes that with Graham at small forward, the team can have a balanced starting unit that will have Asian import Sanchar Tungalag at the off guard spot, LA Tenorio at the point, Japeth Aguilar in the power forward post and Greg Slaughter at the center position." http://www.spin.ph/basketball/pba/news/zach-graham-ginebra-import-pba-frankie-lim-othyus-jeffers-governors-cup - looks good on paper (again) - Puro scorer na naman, wala pa din defender but at least its an upgrade in the 3 position that we all have been talking about here for a while. 2nd unit:> JJ (asahan na to)/Monfort> MC47 (lalo na to)/Yeo> Ellis/Mac45> Marcelo/Brondial> Pena???/Marcelo Chess Players:> Urbiztondo> Knuttel Actually, with how things are, baka si Monfort ang gawing starting point, off the bench si LA and the rest, finisher si LA pa rin. yes, the starting 5 of graham, tungalag, japeth, greg and LA looks good on paper...the greatest concern now is how to translate this into wins. sad to say nandyan pa pala si JJ. guys who could be depended on off the bench would be yeo, marcelo, baracael, MC47 and if given the chance, ellis should be able to show his worth. hopefully brondial could also get some minutes. With Coach FL's feedback on Brondial's practice ethics, definitely mabibigyan ng playing time to. pwede bng isama na lng si Pena at Marcelo sa mga Chess players ang problema ng dalawang import mas lalong ninipis ang playing time at rotations would be at least 7-8 local players lng ang magagamit. hope this work for new coach Franky Malabong isama si Marcelo at Pena sa Chess players. Kaya nga binitawan si Mamaril eh. dapat talaga chess player na lang si pena but the trade of Billy Mamaril hurts and now resulted to lack of legit backup to Greg. Yes, Marcelo played center in the NCAA but almost lahat ng kalaban niya dun kasinglaki niya lang halos, unlike sa PBA na may mas malalaki, skilled at malakas tulad nina Thoss, Fajardo, Taulava, etc. at yung mga no height limit import na andyan pa rin so i think putting Marcelo at the C spot is dangerous. At magiging problemang malaki pa yan pag na injured si Greg (wag naman sana). Sino sesentro? yung Import??? Actually, they intend to put Marcelo on the PF position. Quote Link to comment
*kalel* Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 hopefully magsimula na sila sa import hunting.. importante ang gelling Quote Link to comment
darksoulriver Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Malabong isama si Marcelo at Pena sa Chess players.

Parang nabasa ko before...na may team na balak kunin si haddadi eh...kia ata(correct me if im wrong)...still seems doable naman...considering si pacman team manager/coach/ owner hehehehe Hmn...nice starting five...ang problem lang guys...if ever na si tunganga/tungala eh kasin caliber lang nina yeo/caguioa....remember...IMO...the best PG/SG in asia ...still comes from our country.....shooters lang ang lamang ng korea , japan and china eh...kaya para sakin asian import na less than 6'9" kinda useless pag kukunin lang natin...sayang lang playing time ng mga pinoy players natin talaga...majority of pinoy players natin kasi nasa less than 6'7" height eh Quote Link to comment
azraelmd Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Still...nice innovation by kume tho...to bring a little bit of excitement sa PBA....baka magsawa na rin kasi mga fans...tignan nyo padami na padami mga balik imports natin...tapos yun nakukuhang import natin medyo lemon na ...either mas mahihina ang mga imports or mas gumagaling/tumatangkad na ang mga pinoy players....

Yung bottom 4 lang ang pwedeng kumuha ng unlimited height, pero hindi sya applicable sa Asian import. Sa Kano lang. TNT, Ginebra and Blackwater lang ang kumuha ng Asian import eh. Optional naman pala. Talk ’N Text hired Jordanian veteran guard Osama Daghles, who was measured at 6-2 7/8 yesterday at PBA Office, Barangay Ginebra has signed Mongolia’s Sanchir Tungalag, who averaged almost 17 points per game in the last Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea. Blackwater will also have a Jordanian in Immad Qahwash as Asian import.Read more at http://www.mb.com.ph/pba-teams-pass-up-on-asian-imports/#9uHdTVCafJII00l4.99 Edited April 16, 2015 by Kyoji_Kagami Quote Link to comment
daphne loves derby Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) Their main reason is to span the popularity and increase audience reach. The PBA thinks that having asian imports will attract asian viewers on live games and on internet/tv and increase more the leagues popularity as well as attracting foreign countries to invest (hopefully) on a team that will join in the PBA soon. But I think having one lone player in a team would not help, my suggestion before on PBA websites and forum is like these: 1st conference - All Filipino (no changes)2nd conference - With Imports (same rules, bottom 4 will have unlimited import height)*3rd conference - With height limit on imports on all teams, invite european/asian commercial teams to participate and separate the Gilas Pool and allow to participate in the tournament as a separate team. Two bracketing group system, Same Group members will fought twice and fight the other team members once. Top 4 on each bracket will advance forming the playoffs top 8. - with this kind of setup, you will still attract foreign viewers and interest, plus your giving all PBA players (not just Gilas) a taste of international basketball play which will benefit greatly the young ones or the 2nd generation PBA superstars. Ang main issue dito is yung gastos dahil who will shoulder the expenses of an entire team and yung quality ng teams and players from outside na sasali. But either way, IMHO, I think this is a better setup than having asian imports Edited April 16, 2015 by daphne loves derby Quote Link to comment

azraelmd Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Tanong lang do we really want 3 conferences? ....baka pwdeng pahabain nlang yun import laden conference? Still it seems the "gimik" of kume is working....samin subdivision...mas excited pa cila sa darating na conference kesa dun sa championship between TnT and RoS eh... Especially with ginebra...diko lang masabi dahil kung ba sa bagong coach nila or sa 2 imports nila hehehehe Quote Link to comment
numina Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Zach Graham... another former air 21 import... di na nadala. Hehehe.... anyway abangan ang susunod na sisihin este kabanata... Seriously, getting 2 additional shooters will maximize japeth and greg... ang tanong ko lang, sino ang defensive anchor at sino ang back up ni greg pag napagod... Quote Link to comment
*kalel* Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Natawa ako sa post ko... belated ang updating ng data ko... so zach graham... good compliment sa bigs.... di ko sya maalala... can he run and play defense? Quote Link to comment
machme Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 air21 pickup imports ang gins ngayon season... Quote Link to comment

I think tungalang or graham?..ellis or baracel? so why they got the import same as the position of sanchir...maybe Ginebra coaching staff don't like scouting an import like blakely and reid, they want the balik imports from air21, ASA sa agent palagi.

darksoulriver Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 starting five ng BGK Greg, Japeth, Graham, Tungalag, LA... would this work? ilang minutes kaya mailalaro ng dalawang F? Quote Link to comment
