  1. Coach MVL says:

    i believe in the system of our team Philippines. what i think should be best for the system to maximize it is to include the top 4 following players.
    1. James Yap (a guard that is big and tall and an all around player and most specially have a big heart)
    2. Jason Castro (a very intelligent player. an all around player also)
    3. Yancee De ocampo (has the size and very good shooter and post player. his height can be maximize to give douthit some breather)
    4. Kerby Raymundo (very big heart for the country) or beau belga

    these guys are very fit to the DDM type of system that we have…
    i am hoping that you will consider this.

    enrico villanueva, baracael, lanete and rosser should be replace.

    center: douthit,thoss
    power forward: williams,de ocampo,washington
    small forward: norwood,dilinger
    shooting guard: chan,david,fonacier and castro
    point guard: tenorio,mercado and alapag

    these is the perfect line up!
    1. sonny thoss is perfect for back up center and at the same time can play 4 along side marcus which give us tall front courts.

    2. williams can start at 4 or off the bench to sub de ocampo and since kelly knows the system of chot plus the international experience.

    3. alapag because of his familiarity of the dribble drive system and much deadly than tenorio in 3’s.

    4. castro due to his driving ability but this time he’ll find it more difficult because of opponents size but still can creat offense like for decoy and dishing.

    5. dillinger is a tall and rough defender for shooting gurads like hasheim wright of jordan and he can defend those shooting guards of south korea.

    6. 3 point guards because if one get injured we still have 2 and for some reasons like not all of our pg’s can do well,just like tenorio he just shined the last 2 games,so we need to be versatile with that aspect.

    7. dribble drive system we need a low post player which is douthit is been doing then surrounds by shooters like chan,norwood,david,alapag,tenorio and even de ocampo and williams can shoot 3’s.

    8. oh yeah almost forgot jay wash,we really need jay wash because he can shoot 3,can play 4 or 3 which gives the opponent difficulties and he can defend.

  3. John says:

    Replace Villanueva, Baracael, Rosser, Lanete, Reyes…. Accept Kelly Wiliams, Jayson Castro, Arwind Santos, Junmar Fajardo, Lassiter, other options ( Jarred Dillinger,Pingris, Jaywash and PJ Simon )

  4. John says:

    Opinion lang po ha I would rather choose PJ Simon over Gary David but I have my full respect with Gary, si PJ kasi meron surebol sa three point at besides being athletic maaasahan sa depensa and steals sanay rin si PJ umiskor coming off the bench yun ang kailangan sa international competition, si Gary kasi to get his rhythm kailangan pa muna magpainit si PJ pag pinasok points agad….would you imagine Jeff Chan, Larry Fonancier and PJ Simon on the wings ? lupet ng perimeter st three point shooting natin ….

    Gilas 2 sorely needs another shot-blocker and scrappy, do-it-all players to solidify the chances of winning against top-notch teams in Asia.

    Out In

    Baracael Lassiter
    Thoss Aguilar/Reavis/Pingris
    Villanueva Williams/Belga
    Rosser Castro
    Reyes Dillinger
    Lanete Lutz

    *No need to add another small point guard. 3-5 players are point guards already

    *No need for another star-player as it will bring conflict with playing time. FIBA is an international type of basketball league where star-players in one country are the primary focus of defense by opposing teams

    *They mostly need players with nose-on-the-ball abilities at the same time can score or slash

    *Improve free throw shooting

    *Stand-outs in recent Jones Cup should be automatically retained

    *More defense can be addresed by some of the suggested players above
