Well as usual the team sorely lack the maturity to play tough basketball. The team and most of its players are rattled in close tight games, they cannot play close games and win the game. They commit errors and turnovers in games that are tight and as a result lose games that could very well characterized them as a good team, tough good team…but its not to be…walang gilas kapag dikdikan ang laban….nababahag ang buntot….
hindi nmn, wla lng tlga ung iba nating MVP like alapag, and williams.
Kaya yan SMART GILAS! kahit matalo manalo d2 p rn kmi pra sumuporta sa inyo!
try mo ikaw mglaro!parang ang galing mo ah.
Eh di ikaw na, da best ka eh. Kala mo kung sino kang magaling. Tulok!
i think the Gilas would have won it if they had just replaced Dylan Ababou, Jason Ballesteros, and Andy Barroca with Yancy De Ocampo, Kelly Williams, and Jimmy Alapag.
True
Next month.
4 big guys(Douthit, Taulava, De Ocampo, Aguilar) combined with pure shooters(Tiu, Casio, Hontiveros, Alapag) would definitely be lethal!
hmmm… parang di ko masyado maramdaman presensya ni hontiveros ngayon sa jones cup. di kaya dahil nasa kanya jersey ni kobe? hehe. just kidding. sana this coming fiba asia, pumukol sya. hehe. go hontiveros! go gilas! kaya nyo yan. 😉
should have been Solomon Mercado instead of Andy Barroca….
tama!! si mercado dapat
ok sana si mercado. kaya lang, para syang may sariling laro. mukhang di bagay sa play ng gilas. hihi.
but still brad, ung bonding kc mhirap mplitan e..
true. pero di mo maiiwasan na magpalit ng player. kaylangan yun, para takpan o lagyan yung kahinan ng team na yun. -sakin lang ha. instead of taulava, sana si thoss nalang. masyado ng mabigat si taulava. di na sya masyado maka sabay sa rebounds. unlike sa dating nyang mga laro. ayun.
actually ang original na request talaga ni toroman saka ng smart gilas eh hiramin sa pba sina jimmy alapag, sol mercado, james yap, joe devance and sonny thoss..yan talaga yung 5 players na gusto nilang kunin kaso siyempre hindi pinayagan ng kanya-kanyang ballclubs dahil nga on-going yung pba season eh mga franchise player yan ng kani-kanilang teams..kaya nauwi sa mga talk n text players like jimmy alapag, kelly williams, ranidel de ocampo..w/c are all under mvp because he owns the talk n text franchise..sina dondon hontiveros naman replacement for james yap and asi taulava for sonny thoss..buti sila pinayagan ng mga teams nila na maglaro for the national squad..
tama. hay. sana pinayagan nalang nila. hindi lang naman para sa gilas yun e. para sa bayan. para sa lahat ng mga pilipinong na naniniwala na kaya natin muling maghari sa larong basketball dito sa asya.
PH just got pawned… KOREANS RULE!♥
KOREANS>>>PH
oh yeah, i Love it right down to my core!♥ ^^
We havent got the best teams yet, cause were having PBA in our country!!!
If not with the PBA finals, Williams and Alapag could have joined this CUP, It’s unfortunate that we could not see the same Philippine Team that has gone toe to toe with SMART NBA All Stars., We hope that we could in the FIBA Champions Cup, Let us hope that Philippines would make it to Olympics once again!
Kung nireplace po nila ung mga players na sinabi mo with your suggested players, edi kulang sana sa tao ang gilas.
uu kulang sa tao, puro multo na, ahaha!
smart gilas is lacking back-up for 5 position and 4 spot,cause our 4 or powerforward is under size compare to other asian teams..ok na ang 3,2 and 1 position..
dpat c kelly williams, alapag,arwind santos oh d kaya c caguioa
aminin na natin di natin kaya yang mga yan kapag ganyan mga players natin isolid na kasi kung kailangan panay filam gawin na kelan pa tayo aabot sa olympics pagputi ng uwan baka nagkaapo na yung anak ko dipa rin natin nararating yung olympics o khit fiba man lang!magtukungan kasi hindi lang c mvp panu kung wala c mpv di pakay na!dati rati nung 80’s panis sating mga yan ngayon tayo pinaglalaruan…hay buhay nga naman dyan sa pinas pa
todo support pa naman mga ofw natin sa taiwan kaso sawing palad,wala ng pagasa yan korea-jordan na yan pang 3rd na lang ulit.better luck next time.sana next year pure pba players na kunin yung matinik talaga hindi yang mga amatuer tapos c tim cone ang kunin coach saka c chot.kinuha nga cla dylan saka yung iba ibabangko lang pala bwusit na toroman yan.sarap torohin eh
sir, di naman po sa kinakampihan ko si coach toroman. pero, sa nakikita ko, magaling na coach sya. maganda i-pinapakita ng smart gilas. kahit na aminado syang dehado talaga pagdating sa size ng players. but still, nagagawa nila ng maayos yung play nila. tsaka, isipin mo nalang sir. halimbawa. gusto mong humiram sa ibang tao ng bagay na alam mong makakatulong sayo o sa team mo. pero, ayaw ka pahiramin. (PBA) ayun lang naman yung nakikita ko. and regarding naman sa bangko factor, ang alam ko, papalitan din yung dalawa (not sure) nila williams, alapag at de ocampo. finals kasi ng PBA ngayon. kaya di sila naka paglaro. ayun. anyway, salama po sa pag suporta nyo sa smart gilas. hopefully, maka pasok sila sa london olympics. 🙂
