I congratulate coach Chot for the best line up for FIBA Asia here in our country this coming Aug. 1-11, 2013. This is the best team. If you will trim down to 12 men, I appreciate LA and Pingres but I think they are belong to the weakest link on this team, they are the one to be out in the team. LA and Ping could not work to much because the game is far different from PBA style, I do not under estimate them but only based on their talent and skills. LA was the MVP in the recent Jones cup but that was lucky star, it works only once in a blue moon.
