    Wlang kwenta rin kong halos puro crossbreed o naturalized ang mga players natin. Money at fame ang hinahabol dyan, they lack heart of a true Filipino. Bakit sa bansa tuland ng china , iran, japan, at korea na halos ng players ay pure ang lahi pero magaling mglaro? Yun ang isipin ng mga basketball experts natin,dapat mgahanap sila players dito sa ating bansa na may talent at bigyan sila ng wastong training. Hindi na kailangan ng mga Fil-foreign,sa 101 million natin dito wala kayong mahanap?
