Team Pilipinas Basketball

Slamming Marcus in a press con just leave a bad taste in the mouth. Coach Chot should have dealt it internally. In his desire to convey his emotion, he unwittingly shared info to othet teams, he should have addressed it while it was happening. Look at Coach Tim Cone, he always blamed himself whenever his team loses. I don't think his coaching staff and even MVP liked his gesture in the press con right after the game...Am sure 'though that his teammates would be with their Kuya Marcus on this episode

Let's hope all the best for our Gilas to win today's game against our arch rivals South Korea. Too much drama has been done yesterday so keep it behind and let's all put our good faith in our Gilas to win today.

Lamang ng 16 sa 3rd quarter pagpasok ng 4th 1 point nalang lamang

Yes, we absolutely need utak. Puso can only bring you so far. In finishing games, we need utak and not puso. One such team in the PBA which I believe has it is San Mig Coffee. Those guys aren't really the most talented of players compared to Ginebra but they finish close games. That's the reason why they're grand slammers. That same killer instinct was present in the grand slam Alaska teams of Abarrientos, Hawkins and Lastimosa. There's one common denominator in those teams: Tim Cone. I respect Chot a lot but parang iba yung pag instill ni Tim Cone ng killer instinct sa mga players niya.

 

in the international tournament more than utak we need the strong and tall fil-foreigners. the 2 consecutive losses against qatar and korea are living testament to this.

i would like to hear chot's explanation on the benching of douthit. mvp obviously has spent a lot on this guy for years. is it the end for douthit?

Salamat Gilas!

Somebody's head should roll here...

the other countries have vastly improved by leaps and bounds. senegal is a country which the philippines easily beats by 50 points during the 60s but look at them now. the philippines narrowly escaped with a victory against this african team in the last fiba world cup. pba gate receipts will definitely suffer this next conference because the best players of the land playing in the pba just couldn't deliver to the disappointment of every filipino fan. additionally, in a typically pinoy setting may internal fighting and finger-pointing pa ngayon. blackwater and kia are the teams most affected with the realization that we really don't have the personnel to compete internationally.

Sure its a disciplinary action on the part of Chot but then again Marcus could have provided the difference. Geez akala ko after their impressive showing sa FIBA World Cup against world top ranks in world basketball like Croatia, Argentina and even Puerto Rico mas maganda ang ipapakita nila sa Asian Games

Mr. Chot...next time use your head not your heart...this is a team play how could you sat down M. Douhit when our country is on a crucial game...You never learn from the past games as well....that we always loss on the end game (4th Quarter)...why? because lack of initiative in players rotation kulang na kulang ka sa diskarte...sa nakita ko kanina pinairal mo yung pride mo na wag palaruin si Douhit...now do you think it was a right decision..it;s a big NO....

[ppdd]

nde ko napanuod yung game (collecticon + kenshin kasi)

buti nalang kundi nde na naman ako makapag dinner nito sa lungkot

again... almost but not quite... maybe it's too early for us to expect anything

analyze the past games and make the necessary adjustments. go gilas pa din (kahit masakit sa damdamin)

[azraelmd]

Well at least alam na natin talaga kung ano or rather sinong may problema sa gilas...nde na naman pinalaro masyado si japhet...malaking bagay yun may matangakad talaga sa loob eh...no offense kay ping ha...pero mahihirapan talaga sya sa loob pag pinostehan ng klaban na bigs eh...but hey we should be proud...all pinoy ang naglaro kanina and tinambakan pa natin ng 16 pts!!!!!....all phil team yan kanina...you really have to hand it to chot...dami din syang gimik to get the pinoy crowd support by playing all filipino...

[RED2018]

Hope springs eternal. We still have to hope, though, that Korea beats Qatar. If Korea tanks the game against Qatar, then it's really over. I hope Chot lets Marcus play tomorrow.

As cited by Burgito, Korea would not want to be beaten by Qatar, as they will have a great possibility to face Iran (projected No. 1 in the other Group) in the semis by virtue of win-over-the-other rule...

[azraelmd]

I still cant move on overr our loss to qatar...we won over senegal in FIBA world...no disrespect to the qataris...ni wala pa sa kalahati ng senegal ang qatar eh...

[ray004]

I suspect before the game against Qatar may internal problem na sa team. I'm curious how they're going to play tomorrow. how's the team's morale right now and for the game tomorrow?
