Team Pilipinas Basketball

[launchpad]

it said toroman wants a seven footer guy for a big man, but it thinks his system needs to be agile and a bit versatile. hindi ung mabagal type.

 

i doubt palitan nila pero disappointed sila kahit na si tiu sa kanya hindi sya nakakalaro d ba and this showing proves we can really play with the right system and direction.

 

sampal mo sa mukha ni yeng yan, pba players lang daw pwede

Al Riyadi beats Smart Gilas 79 -76

 

 

1Q: 25-25

end of 2Q: 40-38 Lebanon leading

end of 3Q: 57-55 Lebanon leading

end of 4Q: 79-76 Lebanon wins

This is not bad considering that the Lebanese team had 3 American imports including that traitor CJ Giles and a naturalized Lebanese in Joe Vogel.

wtf!!!!! si giles andun

[Guest megalodon]

wtf!!!!! si giles andun

Yes he is.

[amante]

olats?!?

 

hey, the gilas boys went there to prepare

winning the championship was not the goal

but for the boys to get a taste and get the experience they so badly need

 

win or lose with Syria...malayo na narating nila

at malayo pa ang mararating

again, I cant wait for around June...kapag solid na talaga ang line up nila

 

 

BTW, the only disappointing part about Sampson's game is his health

[crystalyx]

All Gilas needs is a defensive center, offense is their least worry.

 

Make a pitch for Mr. Nate "Kryptonate" Robinson, he can bring spunk in Gilas' game.

Gilas placed third by beating Syria 107-98. Nabawian nila yun tumalo sa kanila sa unang game nila sa tournament.

[kanski]

coming in third is very impressive! very impressive indeed.

 

i'm not proud to say this but, i think a foreign coach was instrumental in their success. kayo nalang humusga kung dahil ba yan sa superior basketball smarts o sa change in attitude.

mabuhay ang smart gilas. :thumbsupsmiley:

Note: sa 2nd part around 1:23, kala ko kung sino yung pinagkakaguluhan ng mga arabo, yun pala si chris tiu, then around 1:35 - 1:37 yung nag-abot ng trophy hinawakan sa pisngi si chris..... Aw! ^^

 

Then look closely yung mga nasa likod ni chris tiu, parang gusto siyang lapangin.... alam nyo na siguro kung ano hilig ng mga arabo! ^^V

 

Sorry for the OT note.

Other countries have been hiring foreign coaches and it has paid dividends. Compared to our local coaches, who see nothing but the same players night in and night out, these foreign coaches see players of different countries play in the tournaments that they go to thus they have a diversified knowledge of international basketball which leads to success when they coach other international teams since they more or less know what to do and make the proper adjustments when they play a particular country.

2 agile defensive centers will surely complete the roster of Smart Gilas. Coach Toroman knows very well how to maximize the abilities of his players against the opposing team's advantages.

 

Sana Junmar Fajardo will do a Japeth Aguilar, he should prioritize playing with the national team instead of playing in the local scene only.

 

Dapat kunin din nila si Alex Ariza and his team as Smart Gilas' strength and conditioning coach, para knock-out din ang bigger opponents.

In article by Quinito Henson, he mentioned that Spain who won the recent Euro Championships have an Italian coach. China hed been coached by Del Harris, an NBA veteran coach.
