    My Lineup for Incheon:
    The Blurr ( 5’9) – best pointguard in Asia
    De Ocampo (6’6) – multiplayer
    Daredevil (6’5) – multiplayer (known for f-break)
    Sakuragi (6’5) – strongest center but short
    Devance (6’7) – multiplayer
    Chan (6’4) – the best 3pt shooter at present
    Norwood (6’6) – multiplayer
    Almazan(6’9) – strong and quick center
    AirForce (6’5) – multiplayer (known for f-break and steal)
    Aguilar (6’10) – shotblocker, highest jumper in PBA
    The Kraken (6’10) – strong center
    Blatche (6’11) – if he can play

    Ave. HEIGHT: (6’6)

    Please Gilas Mgt. revise your lineup for Incheon if you want a better chance of winning against Iran otherwise Gilas will just facing the fate in past again and again…

    • javs says:

      si JC lng ang PG mo? dapat my isa pang legit na PG..

      • Ronin21 says:

        Gabe is legit and JD can play also as PG

        • Jassaj says:

          So ano, si Norwood na maglalock-down sa mga nga No.1 offensive threat ng other team gagawin mong pang point-guard mo? Bigti na Gabe! Kaya nga may iba’t ibang role ang mga plyers. JD can be on the team but he still lacks experience in International Play saka tumatrabaho di siya sa lack-down defense parang Gabe. L.A. is still the one. Maliit, oo pero KUNG narealized mo at di kalang basta nanuod ng FIBA WORLDS, dapat alam mo kung bakit nandoon si L.A.

          • jhonver says:

            tama si L.A di dapat mawala dahil napanood mo ba yung jones cup 2012 isa si L.a ang nagpakita na ang pilipino ay may malaking puso nagcontribute siya para manalo natalo nila ang USA

    • victor abiar jr says:

      hindi na yan marevise dahil ang pagqualified nila sa world cup dalawang purpose nila. ang magbalik sa world stage ng basketball at ang pangalawa ay pag insayo nang maigi para sa asian game. baka sa susunod na taon baka yan naman line up mo ipadala sa qualifying round sa olypic sa 2016

      • Ronin21 says:

        Kung hindi sa Incheon sana nga sa susunod na mga tournament…
        Maaaring sa current lineup manalo tayo sa Incheon but I’m pretty certain that this roster can be changed more better and we can be the strongest in Asia and a strong contender in the World…

      • Jassaj says:

        Pwede pa yang irevise. Check the guidelines bro.

    • ken says:

      hoy tanga!gawa2 kpa ng lineup mo jan mgnda nga lineup ntin sasama mo nnmn mga idol mo! tska dina pwede bguhin ang lineup ugok!

    • ervin says:

      Hnd yan pwede kasi wala ka ballhandler jan na matino.. Matangkad nga wala naman ballhandler magaling..

    • Bogart says:

      Hindi naman pwede maglaro si Ellis at Devance sa Gilas dahil hindi nila naayos ng maaga ang pagiging pinoy nila.

      Si Lassiter at Slaughter sana kaso ayaw nila. Dagdag height and Mas deadly si Marcio kesa kay David at Chan. Almazan masyado madaling itulak sa loob.

    • diego says:

    • Jmark says:

      bkt ayaw nyo ng international players tulad nila pringle at banchero sa point guard position… mas ok un kase nde naman physical ang laban ng mga taga ibang bansa satin lang uso un

      • mike jordan says:

        tama, I would really like the inclusion of slaughter, lassiter, banchero, pringle, parks and Clarkson, they have played foreign already, they know how to deal with other international players…tall and talented lineup..you can already cut the 3 PGs below 6 feet, but I still would like to see alapag play, if possible

  2. yeng guiao says:

    I think mas maganda sa dati nalang at dagdag bawas nalang tayo like this lineup:

    My Lineup for Incheon:
    The Blurr ( 5’9) – best pointguard in Asia
    Angas ng Tondo( 6’0) – best pointguard in Asia
    De Ocampo (6’6) – multiplayer
    Daredevil (6’5) – multiplayer (known for f-break)
    Sakuragi (6’5) – strongest center but short
    Spiderman (6’5) – multiplayer
    Chan (6’4) – the best 3pt shooter at present
    Norwood (6’5) – multiplayer
    Slaughter(7’0) – strong and quick center
    Aguilar (6’10) – shotblocker, highest jumper in PBA
    The Kraken (6’10) – strong center
    Blatche (6’11) – if he can play

    Ave. HEIGHT: (6’6)

    • Ronin21 says:

      > There’s only best pointguard in Asia and that is JC
      > Magaling Spiderman but walang outside shooting but JDV has
      > Slaughter is strong perhaps but I highly disagree that he is quick

      Considering si Slaughter ang center mawawala ang totoong laro ng Gilas which is running but if your center is Almazan the whole team can run expiditiously especially if the starting 5 are The Blurr, Daredevil,(De Ocampo/JDV/Chan), Almazan, and Blatche

      • Jassaj says:

        Almazan? Isasabak mo agad sa Asian Games na may chance tayong mag-GOLD? You don’t observe, you’re just looking at the height! Bakit lagi nyong iniitchapuwera si L.A. ?!

      • diego says:

        ehhh bat mo pa isasama c ellis na tanga.. kung jv casio nlng my speed factor pa at galing gilas na din mas my exoerience kesa jan sa sellis mo.

    • marvin says:

      wag ka magmagaling

    • YourAdmirerhahaha says:

      Itulog mo na lang yang mga sinusulat mo pare, hahaha… hindi yan mangyayari.

  3. james says:

    wala yan..bobo ba kau..kau nlang mag coach..height nlang tinitingnan nyo lagi eh..consistency ang hinahanap ni coach chot kahit gaano pa yan kaliit..dpat pg pos sina castro at alapag/lee..sg sina chan/luts/lasiter, sa sina norwood,dillinger,de ocampo, devance. sa PF si aguilar, pingris..dahil multi player cna de ocampo at devance. center Blatche, Fajardo.

    • Ronin21 says:

      consistent ba kamo nanonood ka ba ng mga laban ng Gilas consistent ba ng shooting ni mga maliliit na player baka consistent missed…mas bobo ka…Hindi lang height ang ang kinokonsider namin package na yon…players who cun run, shoot, defense, and somehow can get rebounds…Sa liit ng height ng ibang players suppose to be highly-percentage shooter sila pero di na ngayon ang nangyayari…thus there is a need for changes…Huwag mong iargue na kami na lang magcoach dahil gusto din namin manalo ang Gilas kaya sinasabi namin ang opinyon namin…Wala naman sigurong bearing ang mga sinasabi namin kung walang punto it’s up to the Gilas Mgt. kung sa plagay nila may basehan din yong sinasabi ng solid fans so wag kang mangbobo kang gago ka…

      • Jassaj says:

        Hey ‘SOLID FAN OF GILAS’?! Ang dami mong observation pero parang di mo yata napansin na yung current line-up natin na kahit mas maliliit e nakipagsabayan sa mga Giants ng World Basketball? Kung saan-saan pa tumitingin ng “players who cun run, shoot, defense, and somehow can get rebounds” e ano ano sa tingin mo yung current line-up ng Gilas, di nila kayang gawin yon? Sa World Cup nga nagagawa nila yon sa Asia pa kaya?? Tapos puro stats pa basehan, “highly-percentage shooter”? Tol, hindi magdidrible-drive Offense si Coach Chot tapos kukuha ng mga players na di kayang magdrive at magtres ng consistent. FIBA World Cup kaya yon, bantayan ka ba naman ng players nd halos tingalain mo na habang nagshushoot. Your “observation” is wrong, sa tingin mo bakit tayo laging dumidikit sa end game, dahil ba sa PUSO? oo, pero dahil din sa 3 points kaya pano mo nasabing kaya pano mo nasabing kaylangan pang magdagdag ng iba pang shooters?

        Sabi nga Wag mong aayusin kung di namn sira. Saka bakit mo papalitan yung players na may ‘experience’ na sa highest level ng competition , na nagpakita na they belong to that level.

        Tol, CHEMISTRY!! alam mo yun. Hindi magtetraining ang Gilas para sa isang tournament lang tapos magpapalit ulit ng players para sa isang tournament ulit. Tol, di ka naman bobo, walang taong bobo, pero mag-iisip ka rin minsan.

        Yun lang :))

        • RDC` says:

          Ok na line up ng gilas pilipinas.. cguro kung tlgang may papalitan, c gary david nlang kapalit greg slaughter at kung di pa makalaro sa injury c pingris at castro, add sanggalang..

          PG- Tenorio, Alapag, Castro
          SG- Lee, Chan
          SF- Norwood, De Ocampo, Pingris
          PF- Blatche, Aguilar, Sanggalang
          C- fajardo, Slaughter

          wag na c yap kc matanda na un.. kung sa pba nakaklusot xa, iba sa international competition..GO FOR THE GOLD GILAS PILIPINAS!!!!

        • Ramelo Bechayda says:

          Agree ako jan bro, very good comment at observation yan,,,di na kelangan baguhin ang current line-up ng Gilas, sa dami na ng training at experience ng mga yan sa international tournament kabisado na nila ang laro at regulation ng international basketball, kung magbabago pa ng line up, panibagong adjustment at training na nman ang mangyayari sa Sept. 19 na ang umpisa ng Asian games halos wla ng time para magtraining… kung sa world cup nga pinahirapan nila ng husto ang mga kalaban dito pa kaya sa Asian games lng, they are most consistent and competent than before, kaya wla tayong dapat ikabahala sa magiging performance ng Gilas ngaun,,,, kayang kaya yan tiwala lng,, #Puso

      • Jassaj says:

        When james said ‘consistency’ it’s not about the shooting or other stats, it’s the consistency in CHEMISTRY, LEVEL OF PLAY and EXPERIENCE is what we need. ‘ MALILIT NA PLAYERS’?! don’t you know Filipino Brand of Basketball?? yung malilit na players na sinasabi e sila lang naman yung muntik ng tumalo sa CROATIA, PUERTO RICO AT ARGENTINA! SA tingin mo bakit atyo laging dumidikit sa kanila, dahil sa PUSO?, oo at dahil din sa 3 pointers! Our Gilas is tarined, mold and built to drive and shoot, so don’t ever say that other players outside the program should take-over Gilas mainstays spot because they are not consistent is shooting.

      • boboRONIN21 says:

        tanga mo nman.. nagmamagaling.. ge kaw na coach ng gilas..may almazan pa..tsaka si ellis..madaling matulak..walang experience pa..kng maganda sila sa team dapat kahit 20 players na pagpipilian sana nakuha yang 2 na yan..may devance pa..pano na ang strategy ng coach ?? mababagay ba sa kanila? lolz

      • Nick says:

    Seriously, Mahihirapan itong line up natin ngayon sa darating na asian games, patay nanaman to sa IRAN, hayssssttt…

  9. ramon sangalang says:

    Chemistry and familiarity aside from height, skill, athleticsm, determination, discipline, logistics and support from Philippine basketball should also be consider when forming a competitive team
