RED2018 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 The Chinese team, no doubt, will be the most feared team... The Chinese are the most talented team at FIBA-Asia Championships and they have improved leaps and bounds after Bob Donewald took over coaching duties in 2010. With Washington Wizard 7'0" Yi Jianlian, former NBA players 7'1 Wang ZhiZhi and 6'9" Sue Yue, 7'3" Zhang Zhaoxu of UC Berkeley Bears, 7'1" Tang Zhengdong and veteran point guard, 6'3" Liu Wei, who was almost made it to the NBA; and then it will be played in Wuhan, China. Tough job indeed for the rest (incl. Smart Gilas) of the competitors. Quote Link to comment

SaintPeter5858 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 congrats to gilas. sayang, akala ko mauupstage na ng RP after ang iran. pero okay narin, at least nameet nila yung target, which is a third-place finish. That's good enough for now. Hope Lassiter, Lutz et all will still play for Gilas in the future. Quote Link to comment
SaintPeter5858 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Talo sa Iran. Di kasi makaporma si Douhit sa 7 footer na si Ehadadi. Tsaka di pumapasok yung mga tres. Game bukas against Taipei for 3rd place. Ehadadi got some help from a lot of big teammates. We were also missing a lot of treys. Better luck next time. Quote Link to comment
launchpad Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 i heard most of the gilas players put their name in the draft to come. also regarding china, yes they are at a higher level than us. but if they are truly strong they should be really winning in the international competitions and not just in asia. the strenght of china is in their bigs, no matter what we do. true they have good sf and sg especially sun yue and i forgot if its huang or zhao wherein his a deadly shooter. the only problem china has it is point guard. liu wei is never a top tier guard. once harass he losses concentration to the point of losing the ball in the instant he dribbles it hitting either his foot or legs. they are tough yes but they surely have weakspots but comparing it to gilas, what is douhit, asi to the likes of wang zhi zhi , yi jian lian. if the bench of memphis griz we cant handle how about a player who does play seldomly haha Quote Link to comment

SaintPeter5858 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Our main advantage lies on our treys because we cannot match their height. Go Gilas! Quote Link to comment

RED2018 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Ang magiging problema rito sa ating mga players eh ang stability ng Gilas program. Eto ang magiging hindrance nila sa commitment sa National Team since mukhang hindi pa ata ito permanent unlike ang PBA which has been going on for the last 36 years. Kung talagang gusto nating bumalik sa either Olympics or FIBA-World Championships, kailangan rin maging committed ang SBP sa kanilang support sa GIlas program para maging committed rin ang magagaling na players rito. Also, kailangan rin tumulong nb PBA by loaning its players from time to time to form a Gilas team that would give China and Iran a run for its money. Given na kasi na forming skillful and athletic players is not a guarantee to a better performance, kelangan talaga ang isang 'program'. Even Malaysia is hell bent on improving (kasehodang baby steps ang tahakin) by adopting a basketball program. The Japanese sent a 'program' team in the recent Jones Cup, and am sure they benefitted very well. Quote Link to comment

khilua23 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Nagulat ako na ayaw nila kay Japeth Aguilar. ayaw kasi nila yung sinabi ni japeth na maglalaro siya sa gilas as long na si toroman parin ang coach.. parang pagmamando daw sa kanila yun na siya ang pumipili ng coach.. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
