    maybe this is the right time that the gov’t sports body will interfere and ask the UC admin to release junmar fajardo to fill the lack of team smart gilas if douhtit is out as evident to what happen last game against BMEG

  2. bogoy says:

    junmar fajardo is really stronger than slaughter, so the smart gilas should ask the help of strong government sports body to get junmar fajardo from UC by hook or by crook

  3. bogoy says:

    i think smart gilas is stronger with junmar fajardo. so smart gilas offer jf a lucrative contract and a training in big man’s camp in the US, and ask the help of government authorities to do this
