junix Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Kakaiyak naman pag ganitong mga talo natin....so close..... Indeed it is saddening but think of it this way...at least we know we can compete at the elite level and given that this is our first time to qualify in the world cup after 36 long years with barely 2 months (?) of preparation, our performance is nothing to be ashamed of. Laban Pilipinas!!! Quote Link to comment
junix Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 This hurts because we know we had Argentina by the ropes. Blatche let Nocioni get to him. It should have been Jimmy dribbling the last play. I have no idea why it was in the hands of Castro. Jimmy was f#&king on fire but the ball was in Castro's hands! true...jimmy would've been the better choice to have the ball. Quote Link to comment

Maybe castro was trying to make up for the last few seconds of the game vs croatia...wherein he could have just dribbled and drive for the win instead of passing to jeff chan... Quote Link to comment
azraelmd Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 We already know we can compete against the world after our first game against croatia....i just want our first win....its really really hard watching them wanting to win so badly and coming up short.... Norwood posterizes not only scola but another argentinian player as well.... Quote Link to comment
junix Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 to make us feel a little better GABE NORWOOD POSTERIZES SCOLA!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_X7PFmrXIU take that scola!!! 😆😃 if i remember right there was another slam by gabe using the left hand in front of a big defender.

mikeskillz Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Jimmy's on fire he should've had the last shot Quote Link to comment
azraelmd Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 1409593103[/url]' post='9397506']Hope springs eternal. If we beat our last two opponents, we can still make it provided Senegal loses to Argentina. Question is....mas malakas ba senegal kesa argentinia? Ang alam natin kakayanin natin ang senegal...but they won over croatia.... Quote Link to comment

Soraoi_empire Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Sa tingin nyo ba kung itinuloy ni castro yung tira nya nung last play na yun aabutan sya nung bantay nya? wala na din kasi syang chance na maipasa yun malayo yung mga kakampi nya. Napansin ko lang din yung huling dalawang crucial na game nila against croatia (Bago mag-OT) at argentina parehong hindi si blatche ang humawak ng bola. Quote Link to comment
RED2018 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Why didn't Coach Chot re-entered JunMar and combined him with Andray? Ginawa na niya ito and okay naman, plus ang ganda ng nilaro ng mama... Wow! Norwood just did an NBA performance (defense and offense)...the Mighty Mouse was awesome...Kaya pa with two straight wins If we won't qualify for the next round, I'll be looking forward to Gilas kicking Iran and China's ass in the Asian Games. I agree...This will be the silver lining, so to speak! Quote Link to comment
heyitsme Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Much needed rest for our boys. I am sure that they will we on fire and eager to get our first win against Puerto rico Quote Link to comment
gobster11 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) Our GILAS boys did very well. Though we fell short against Argentina, it just showed that we have arrived in international basketball. Even the #3 in the world had to fight tooth and nail against Team Pilipinas. Coach Chot and the rest of the coaching staff are not to be blamed. They have been training for this and they know when to use and not to use the players. Win the last 2 games!! Whatever the results, I am proud of Team Gilas. Edited September 2, 2014 by gobster11 Quote Link to comment
niloloco Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 #Gilas almost there, could have been a huge upset for Argentina and a loud bravo for our boys but we're getting there.....no pain no gain..... Quote Link to comment
deathscythe0402 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Not yet over. It will be all hearts out. We'll get that W this time! Laban Pilipinas! Quote Link to comment
