Team Pilipinas Basketball

“Smart Gilas asked for a reconsideration of our initial and unofficial position. And because this is for flag and country, we agreed to reconsider,” said Baylon. “I think it is an honor for Asi and for his team as well.”

 

The PBA board unanimously approved SBP’s appeal but one board member said “the request raises question on the initial claim of an SBP official that they didn’t and won’t ever need PBA help.”

as expected smart gilas is working against time and talent.... they are looking to recruit PBA players to beef up their campaign for the ASIAN GAMES.... WE nid a longer program and not the band aid solution to our woes.... it will take us more than a decade to come up with filipino players who are tall enought to compete at the ASIAN LEVEL

 

It is not just the height that matters and has been the lack of the National Team. It's the hunger and spirit and pride to play for the country. These kids are once again just Showbiz personalities who will play in the PBA if they were all given the opportunity to do so with the combined salary.

 

How to get a team full of National Pride?

 

Get a bunch of PBA players to play for the National Team with just allowance to support them. There you will see what matters more, money or country.

i think this is a bit extreme..

these people have families too..

you can't expect them to play only for allowances..

if this is the case wala na talaga maglalaro sa kanila

hindi dahil ayaw nila pero dahil wala na sila ipambubuhay sa pamilya nila

karamihan sa mga ito (honestly speaking) has nothing else but basketball

even the current Gilas players have multi-million contracts under their belts

 

country matters to these players but money matters too not because of money per say pero dahil sa pamilya

 

we have enough good guards, look for a big man outside

yun lang naman ang kulang e

naturalize a player

yung matino..

i agree. it's one thing to ask them to play for country. it is another to ask them to play for free or just for allowance. it is very easy for people to pick on those who choose to play for the pba instead of smart gilas. we already have 3-4 members of smart gilas who declared for the pba draft. money is money but awards and medals cannot feed a family. buti nga ngayon, anjan to MVP to form smart gilas. dati, nagrerely ang Philippine sports commission sa PBA kung magpapahiram sila ng players or not. pag hindi, kahit sino na lang pinaglalaro nila. bakit sila walang makuhang player? kasi walang pera ang psc para paswelduhin ang players.

gusto naman pala ni coach erik spoelstra na tulungan ang smart gilas... bakit di makipag exhibition game ang smart gilas sa miami heat? siguro naman with wade, james, haslem, and bosh sa heat eh talagang mapapasabak ang smart gilas..

 

good idea... pero... asian teams nga di natin matalo, miami heat pa... :P
