Ang galing tlga ng Gilas! keep it up guys!ipasok pa ng ipasok c Hontiveros “THE WEATHERMAN”.Kc sometimes pumpasok ang tres pero kadalsan hindi! Depende lang sa Weather!
All the while tama nga ako na walang kwenta tong Gilas 3.0 na to! sa line-up pa lang walang wingmen na deadly and consistent sa tres!nag zone lang ang Palestine eh wala na agad maka shoot!meron tayong designated outside shooter (The Weatherman “Hontiveros”) na trusted ni Baldwin e nangamote naman!Hindi lang sa laro na to ha! dating back pa yan sa Jones Cup at MVP Cup! Hindi pa ba yan nahalata ni Baldwin!Asa pa kayo na Manalo kayo sa teamS like Iran, China and S. Korea? Maske Hongkong nga pahihirapan pa cguro kayo bukas! The two bright spots lang sa Gilas ay sina Abueva and Romeo!Eh hindi pa pinalaro c Romeo sa tlgang laro nya kc my bulok na Sistemang sinusunod!alam nman natin na hindi mg work ang Sistema dahil wala tayong consistent three point shooters! Mabuti pang umuwi a kayo! Worst pa cguro outing nyo sa Gilas 2.0 sa Asian Games last Year! UWI UWI UWI!
Huh? okay ka lang? FYI, 51 points lamang ng Gilas sa Hongkong ngayon. Wag utak talangka. http://www.smartgilasbasketball.com/game-results/gilas-pilipinas-defeats-hong-kong/
Bad start but still has a big chance to go 2nd round. Gilas should learn a lesson from this loss. Coach Tad needs to come up ready with plays against the zone. They should play the same defensive intensity against either Hong Kong or Iran.
It is their poor decision making that cost them the game..both players and coaching staff,blatche should not play on perimeter especially with smaller teams..he should bully them down low,let romeo and Castro play their game.kya nga me Norwood to play ay point,reward abueva with more touch on offense I can guarantee he is the most fearless guy out there and he will make a difference.. Just play every game as it is your last..play with the teams strength and expose every opponents weakness..
