Who do you think should be included in the Gilas 3.0 Player Pool?
Gilas Pilipinas Coach Tab Baldwin and his coaching staff (currently only Jimmy Alapag has been named as Assistant Coach) has a tough task of forming the new Gilas Pilipinas Team (called Gilas 3.0).
Tab Baldwin said that he will stick to the dribble-drive offense used by Chot Reyes but with additional plays from his experience. With this, who do you think are the PBA players who will thrive in the dribble-drive offense?
Updates: According to SBP, the composition of the Gilas Pilipinas player pool will be announced on Monday, August 3, after the 2015 FIBA 3×3 World Tour Manila which will be held on August 1 and 2.

PG- Taulava, Tautua,
C- Slaughter, Blatch, Fajardo.
Dont know if Tautua is eligible to play,but certainly he would up ceiling and power in the 4 spot if he is, Pringles is a perfect fit for a combo guard, but i am sure he’s not eligible as well.. I hope the entire Gilas Organization would think about investing talent in the future by adding young prospects like Kobe Paras and some amateur standouts.
