Back To The 70's


Recommended Posts

Yco painters, sina Rene Canent, Freddie Webb yun diba? They were the 3rd best in the MICAA behind Crispa, Meralco, then Yco, Mariwasa and Yutivo bringing up the rear.

 

Ay, sorry OT na tayo....60's na ito.

 

 

Hindi ka OT kasi early 70s meron pang MICAA. Favorite ko noon ang Yco. Hindi sila 3rd best. Nung mawala ang Yco lumipat ako sa Crispa.

 

Ano ngang team noon sina Manny Paner at Martirez?

 

Si Jimmy Noblezada ay Mariwasa kasama sina Sullano.

 

Naaalala ko magaling sa defense si Regullano. Sa shooting naman sina Bernardo, Jun Papa, Joy Cleopas at Mariano. Si Webb ang fastest man at magaling din sa lay-up at assist pero banban sa shooting. Si Jawo ang pinakamagaling magdala ng bola pati sa dribbling.

Paner and Martirez were with San Miguel, the only team to play all-Filipino in the old MICAA. Manny Paner battled with the likes of Presley (6'11") and Cowart (6'7") for the rebounds, even though he was only 6'2". Their teammates included Estoy Estrada, Rolly Marcelo, Dave Regullano, and Velasco.

 

In the 70s, there used to be a popular magazine called "Cage King." Its first featured player was Jaworski. The others that followed were Jun Papa, Larry Mumar, Manny Paner (I think), Bogs Adornado, and Jimmy Mariano. This was all before the PBA.

Di nyo ba napansin pag #14 (Webb, Yoyong Martirez) ang player, magaling sa defense (interception), pag #10 ay shooter naman (Jun Papa).

 

Si Regullano yung nagpauso ng black shoes! Alala ko dati basta ABC, tigil ang mundo ng pinoy...lalo na kung ang kalaban was South Korea with the dreaded SHIN DONG PA...sa Japan naman si TANIGUCHI at si ABE...wala pa ang China nun. Pero asahan mo pag naglalaro si Tembong, sigurado may suntukan!

Yes, it seemed as if they really assigned numbers to players based on their roles. No. 14 was for the fastest one. No. 10 was for the great shooters. No. 4 belonged to the team captains.

 

As for the late great, great, great Tembong Melencio, he remains the only player I've seen (and that includes NBA greats) who would finish a fastbreak lay-up using just one hand. I mean, off the dribble, he would take the ball in his right hand (no support from his left) and put the ball in. He was unbelievable.

Grabe sa gulang si Tembong. Siya rin ang unang Pinoy basketeer na nakita kong mag-dunk ng bola.

yung mga imports ngayon walang sinabi sa mga imports nuon. Those were really great ones. Sina Presley, Tom Cowart, Paul Scranton, Glenn McDonald, Byron "Snake" Jones, Billy Ray Bates, of course you could include Norman Black. There was also Michael Hackett of Toyota who I remember scored 100 points in a game (?).The battles between great opposing imports were truly classic....ngayon, parang revolving-door, bargain-basement types na mga import na nakukuha. Now you see them, now you don't - can't even remember their names kahit nung last season lang naglaro..

Actually, pareng Bods, Michael Hackett played with Anejo/Ginebra, not with Toyota. The really great Toyota import was Andy Fields (although 80s na 'to). Snake Jones played for both Crispa and Toyota. As for Crispa, their really great import during the 70s (before Billy Ray Bates) was Cyrus Mann.

eh pareho din yun pare, di ba - sina Jaworski din :P

pucha how can I forget Andy Fields and Cyrus Mann :blink: Cyrus Mann had really long arms that can scoop that ball for rebounds....kaya lang may mga tsismis nun na nagbebenta din ng laro itong si Cyrus Mann because he played lackadaisically in some games....

Ang tatalas pa rin ng mga memory nyo!

 

The comical Cisco Oliver would fake his free throw and get the opposing players to step on the line pre-maturely and cause violations, that is, until the refs caught on to his shenanigans. He was benched by some KJ coach when the NBA greats came to the Araneta, much to the chagrin of just about anybody who loved basketball. Claimes Cisco skipped practice to hang out with the NBA guys....

 

If I remember correctly, they were Clyde Frazier, Geoff Petrie, some Randy Smith, some guy named Curtis Perry who blocked Guidaben's jump shot big time.

 

Yup, Billly Robinson...from Mariwasa and then 7-Up!

How about those notorious players naman who would hear it from the Araneta crowd whenever they touched the ball ? The bearded Ricky Palou, Luke Dacula (eerie howls would emanate from the bleachers whenever he touched the ball) and Nonoy Dalman (who had the misfortune of having a surname that sounded like Galman when Ninoy's death was still fresh in our minds).

 

And my all-time favorite - Alejo "Ponky" Alolor!

Hahaha! Hokey ba?

 

Actually 1973 pala nanalo si Jesus Garcia Jr. Pare yung naging runner-up ay muntik sanang nanalo noon kaya lang team captain niya si Jess Garcia. A few seconds lang ang lamang ni Jess Garcia sa kanya. Cesar Catambay name niya.

 

1974 nanalo si Teoderico Rimarim at runner-up ulit si Catambay. Samson Etrata won in 1975, Modesto Bonzo in 1976, Manuel Reynante in 1977. Hindi ko matandaan yung 78 pero nung 79 ay si Paquito Rivas ang nanalo.

Paquito Rivas used to be known as the "King of the Mountains." Basta sa akyatan, panalo. Pareng Storm, you forgot Jose Sumalde.

 

It's sad that we don't have a Tour anymore. During the 70s, it was the Tour of Luzon. During the 80s and 90s, it was the Tour of the Philippines. As for the present day, it's Tour No More.

Cisco Oliver and Billy Robinson played in the PBA All-Filipino, since they both became naturalized Filipinos (but without giving up their American citizenship, I believe).

Pareng JT, si Sumalde ay 60s pa. Sila ni Cornelio Padilla (champion, 65-66) ang mga tournament directors or managers nung 70s. I think Sumalde was the team manager of the Bicol Squad. Sumalde was back to back champion in 1963-64.

Hindi naman siguro OT ito since Tour of Luzon was a major fixture of the 70s ?

 

Anyway, with their resiliency under the punishing Philippine summer heat, do you think any of our cyclists then, granted they're provided modernized equipment, could compete in the Tour de France? Kapus pa rin siguro...

 

Yung front page (top portion) ng Manila Times dati puros yung illustrations ng mga cyclists to report on was leading the race!

 

Palagay ko hindi mahilig sa MICAA/PBA/Tour of Luzon si kumareng augustmoon....

 

augustmoon...miss ka na namin sa thread na ito ;) !

You know, that has really baffled me. Our cyclists train in tne roughest of terrains (potholes, uneven roads, hot weather, etc.), in very much the same way the long distance runners of Africa do. The Africans produce world champions. Why can't we?
