Well done po PBA…. Verify ko lang po kung bakit hindi napasama si Moala Tautuaa…. Nakitaan ko po kasi siya ng excellent athletic and high leaping ability although medyo bata pa siya at kulang pa sa experience….. Dahil po ba sa citizenship eligibility kaya hindi siya napasama sa training pool!? Thank you so much po nang marami……. Laban Gilas Pilipinas…….. (y) (y) (y)
Yep! dipa xa eligible mag laro… d kasi xa nakakuha ng passport before xa nag 16. sa 2020 pwedeng pwede na xa…
Mo. hndi pwede ksi wla siyang passport bgo mag 16y/o kaya lang siya nkalaro nun s jones cup ksi wla si blatche. At s isang team po 1naturalized player lang per team at si mo un nung s jones cup. At si dray nun fiba.
eRICK; Kasi, si Moala walang dugong Pinoy at isang naturalized ang pinapayagan lang ng FIBA sa bawat team. Mayroon ng Blatche ang Gilas.
Bro… meron dugong pinoy, his mother is Romanita Del Valle, a Filipina, who hails from Taguig City. Tama si Bakutong… wala siyang passport bago mag 16y/o
China as we all know is selfish, greedy and a bully politically, economically, geographically, socially and as a nation and yes even in sports. They play not just dirty but very, very dirty basketball, football, etc. They are violent and had made kung-fu attacks on their opponents and referees on so many occasions but they do not fight fair and square and they attack in droves (hordes style-Genghis Khan system) against a single opponent. They only do this if their opponent is weak and few and they are many. They had done this bullying and dirty cowardly tricks consistently and gradually over time to frighten and condition the minds of the referees and their opponents not to shoot the ball and just let their Chinese opponents to shoot the ball without interference (as in the case of basketball) or else they will be hurt by their kung-fu hordes style attacks. They also do perhaps their most potent weapon: corruption and bribery and we have to be watchful for this.
The Philippine basketball team, although smaller was a lot better and can defeat the Chinese anytime of the day as evidenced by their performance in the last FIBA World Cup and Olympics before where the Philippine team lost by small margins only and in fact nearly won their games in FIBA World while the Chinese losses in FIBA games were monstrous margins. So the Chinese bullying pays off with the win against Gilas??? No since this is basketball and not kung-fu match. The Chinese cannot bully the teams from the USA, Russia, Greece, Argentina, France, etc. because they were big and tall also and as I said earlier, they only bully smaller and weaker opponents and they do not fight fair and square. This can be seen in their history that when the USA and European countries bombed China during the west colonization of Asia, China quickly surrender without a fight because they do not fight with stronger opponent.
If only the referees will do their works without fear (or maybe bribery) then it will be different. How can the Chinese say that they are better in basketball since the Philippine performance in FIBA world and other international tournaments are a lot better? How can the Chinese say that they are better in basketball if their previous performance in FIBA world cup and the Olympics is disastrous. How come they lost to Iran a lot of times also and how about in the future especially if the games will be played outside of China??? I am sure the Chinese knows their real score and status and how the basketball world sees them. Just remember that they are selfish and greedy. Can they perform good in the coming olympics and FIBA World Cups???? Be watchful for corruption and bribery.
