Kulang tyo sa small forward...after ni norwood...wala na...kaya nasama si arwind sa pool...spot usually manned by abueva before

at si arwind magiging vital yung length nya sa Iran game kc Si Bahrami wings ang laro.. si Arwing pwde mag tres at lockdown defender din.. magagamit nya pambubwisit nya run

[daphne loves derby]

Stanhardinger or Belga can play the 3 spot kung magsasabay si Junmar at Greg.

 

Si Japhet at Erram ang papalit sa kanilang 2.

 

imagine how tall is that lineup

[junix]

i can just imagine the havoc this 5 will bring - greg at center, junemar at pf, christian at sf, wright or lassiter playing the 2 and LA orchestrating. then guiao can bring in japeth, gabe, scottie, jayson and erram.

tall and intimidating 1st unit and then tall but fast 2nd unit.. Match-up nightmare for opposing teams

The lineup is strong but putting 3bigs to start will not work cos its too slow for international play where ball movement and transition play is at a premium..kelangan pa din may traditional small forward tyo like norwood starting

were talking at the next window, wala pang european na kalaban. Kaz and Iran dont take that much 3's like Korea and China.

 

They only take 3s kung double team si Haddadi which with this tall lineup, Im betting will be rare.

We can get away with a tall lineup against the kazaks but not with iran. Iran has veered away from a deliberate style of play bec of haddadis decline,and they feature more of bahrami and another wing i cannot remember the name. Even their bigs has started shooting 3s

[dencio]

I may be in the minority but I believe that to beat Iran, we need more speed and shooting - similar to the formula we used when we beat them in 2015. As the previous poster has mentioned, Iran’s game has also transitioned outside as Haddadi has slowed down with age. Fact : Iran averages more 3s and has a higher 3FG% than we do (based on 2018 FIBA Asia stats).

 

My strategy would be to rotate Junemar and CStand at C, paired with any of the shooting bigs - Belga, Erram, Rosario. The rest of the lineup will be shooters and quick penetrating guards. Our shooting has to be effective and/or be able to take quality shots while Haddadi is still lumbering upcourt.

Standhardinger and belga cant play the 3 spot masyado na sila mabagal for a wing and greedy na sa tangkad lineup nun kung sakali. And di siguro maganda pag sabayin slaughter and fajardo ng matagal cuz they are both post up players siguro maganda kung 4 natin may maayos na mid-range to 3pt shots like japeth, erram, belga, santos and rosario.

[Fmulder9]

Position wise set na talaga tyo sa guards n center position...sa power n small forward tyo mdyo weak...we have big forwards but medyo mabagal...we have quick forwards but lacking in height...plus dapat both forward positions can shoot from the outside

[Gringo*]

Haay.. ayoko sana ma sweep NSD pero parang gusto ko na rin matalo sila mmya para maka focus sila sa TEAM PILIPINAS. mahirap sumabak sa semis at finals ang 4 n players s gilas pool ng bugbog sarado at baka ma injured pa.

Let support Yeng's decision and hope for the best!!

I think we are fine at the PF with Stand and Aguilar. Stand is a work horse and a pesky defender who is also quick enough to guard wing men. He is the most suited among the players in the pool for the international game. Aguilar can relieve Stand but Stand should be the main PF.

[Fmulder9]

C-stan is very capable at the 4,the only problem is when paired wd jmf,the paint becomes too clogged..thats also the reason why blatche was a success with us cos he is a big who can play outside...c-stan can be effective but he must be paired wd a big who has a decent perimeter shot like erram or belga...he cant be at the post or even in pick n roll situations when jmf is around...spacing is not good

[joey.fabian2018]

What belga?
