    Lazy start typical PBA play.Without Douthit Smart Gilas will not be in Semis. Let’s face it we cannot compete internationally w/o an import. yung height ng Phils ay pang PBA or inter Barangay. Only in the Phils were both two 5 footer can play at the same time and be shooting guard or a forward. that’s what happen sa Gilas vs Jordan. Kaya bumaba rating ng PBA kasawa walang tall players to watrch.its time to revolutionize Phils basketball get a 6’5 above guards n forward and develop them by height position./ why Chris Tiu took much of the time where he cannot set a play or make a shot. where is Aguilar & Baracael? they can match up better. I salute Dauthit,Casio,De Ocampo,Lassiter & Williams the rest revamp!

    disappointed dahil naging overconfidence na kayang kaya natn ang Jordan with hard defense of william and de ocampo etc….kitang kita nman kahit walng makatapat sa height si douthit…..eh halos same height ang mga player ng Jordan at may katangkarang cla kesa sa mga local player natin….binalewala natn ang kahalagahan ni Japeth kahit ba malalaki katawan ng jordan….nkalimutan ata na kasama c japeth ang naging reason kng bakit natn natalo dati ang IRAN kahit andun c aldadi….asan na ung sinasbing lahat ng player ng gilas nabbgyan lahat ng time….BUT STILL ITS JUST MY SUGGESTION…..SALUDO PARIN KAMI SA SMART GILAS KAHTI ANONG MANGYARI…HINDI NEO MAN NA MAINTAIN ANG WINNING STRICK NATN …ALAM NAMING HINDI NEO PA BNIBGAY ANG LAHAT…..BINGWITIN NATN NAG THIRD PLACE…SANA NGA CHINA MAKALABAN EH JOKE!!! ^^ KAHTI CNO PA ….OK LNG GALINGAN NEO BUKAS!!!!!WE BILIEVE IN YOU…..LIVE AKTIVE

    No, it wasn’t mental lapses, they were not prepared on how to break the zone,It showed.Kht start p lng ng tournament hirap cla and Jordanians knew it and used when it matters most kun saan malakas ang gilas, In the third quarter. Wala cl magawa nun naka zona kaya nga sbi k slashing going hard to the basket ang kelangan ksi nag sswarm un Jordanians s slasher knowing no legit shotblocker ang Jordan,den may mga kick out sna kso wala gsto gmwa nun from the guards/Small forwards alangan naman c douthit pa slashin m e d naagaw n bola, take a close look on how the koreans play, they dribble drive, pg ala benta s tres they took 3-4 dribbles in the perimeter and they took the shot.that’s international play, ganun ang atake s zona. Nop, I don’t think Japeth would be effective eithr s zone, I’m looking at Baracael coz He attacks the perimeter often,

    Tska, Jordanians tlga wanted it more than our boys. Nkakapanghinayang lng ksi. To disappointed, We all know how you feel but Hndi tama pnagsasabi m, They tried kulang p lng tlga, they didn’t know what to do nun zona depensa kht ire-play m p. Mganda ball movement ntn pag set plays and hndi zona kso un nga alm ng Jordanians ang weakness,Kun hndi sna na foul trouble c lutz, zone breaker din kc sya. C lassiter ganun din pero more on drive to the basket sya, Batman and Robin or 1 -2 punch, perimeter and the other drive ksi laro nun 2 fil-ams.

    Haters need to pick up a ball and learn how to play. Basketball is more complicated than you can imagine from your couch. Let’s give these men the credit they deserve, win or lose. For all you haters, why don’t you try and raise your own team and let’s see whose ass gets whooped.
