RED2018 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 With Douthit, Taulava, Slaughter and Aguilar, SG has 4 big guys who can bang in the inside although Aguilar is more of a finesse player, I think he'll have to mix it up in the inside with the big guys of China, Sokor and Iran. Ok na ba naturalization papers ni Douthit? Will he be able to play this Nov. for RP? Quote Link to comment
Guest eljuego Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Ok na ba naturalization papers ni Douthit? Will he be able to play this Nov. for RP?Congress gave him a lopsided 212-9 vote for his naturalization. He, however, has to pass the Senate. But I think the Senate will approve of this unless there's a KJ among the senators. Quote Link to comment
rooster69ph Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) Would Aguilar really be able to mix it up with the tough guys inside the paint??? So far, he had not shown signs of willingness. Edited October 11, 2010 by rooster69ph Quote Link to comment
CELTS Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 With Douthit, Taulava, Slaughter and Aguilar, SG has 4 big guys who can bang in the inside although Aguilar is more of a finesse player, I think he'll have to mix it up in the inside with the big guys of China, Sokor and Iran. I remember a friend who speaks highly of Greg Slaughter. Without Marcus in their lineup during the last tourney the team participated, it would have been a perfect opportunity for him to show his wares. The guy don't get a lot of playing time if we have our naturalized player candidate playing. Unfortunately, he cited acedemics as an alibi for not being able to play for flag and country. Sayang!!! Am not too high on this guy as of yet. The guy dominated the college league in Cebu but he's head and shoulder above the rest there literally speaking. With Asi being a welcome last minute addition to the Gilas team, it only shows that a 37 year old leg is still better than what some people do claim as our upcoming young centers (both Greg and Japeth) who would be able to hold thier own/compete against the big guys of other teams in the Asiad.

CELTS Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 JR Cawaling quits Smart Gilas Team... http://teampilipinas.info/2010/10/jr-cawaling-quits-smart-gilas-program.html Not surprising at all ...these guys have sacrifice for a chance to represent the flag and country. If we could empathized with Cawaling, masakit talaga basta-basta na lang ma dislodge sa line-up most specially by someone who may not have even practice with them for a single session but whose name was submitted for final consideration. Can we blame the kid??? Quote Link to comment

So far, he had not shown signs of willingness.We'll just have to wait and see but I believe he will. Coach Toroman will ask it from him since he's a big. With Douthit around plus Taulava and Slaughter, SG can now match any team in the Asiad sizewise. Quote Link to comment

buwitre1781 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 parang ala ng pagasang makapaglaro si japeth ng 4-5 position para siyang si don camaso na pang 2-3 lang kayang laruin. pero pwede siyang imaximize ni toroman sa 3 position kasi malaki siya.. talagang si greg slaughter ang dapat na magimprove kasi natural position niya ang 4 at 5.. sana maglaro din sa gilas si junmar fajardo.. saan kaya pwedeng bumili ng fountain of youth para makainom si taulava. I think asi will still be our best center for the next 5 years.. Quote Link to comment
CELTS Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 (edited) Kung hindi ako nagkakamali Center po ang laro ni Japeth sa Ateneo at sa Western Kentucky. Pero pwede rin siyang PF. Edited October 14, 2010 by CELTS Quote Link to comment
