wag na yang si alapag, masyadong maliit hindi maka lay up. Retire na yan diba? Marami pang available.wag yang puro Players ni MVP. Marami pang magaling sa ibang team. Favoritism ang nangyayari. hindi tayo mananalo kapag ganyan.. Wag na rin tayong umasa na makakalaro si Clarckson para sa ating bansa..
kay Ramon Ang ka po sir magreklamo. siya yung madamot sa player. walang favoritism dito.. ayaw pahiram ng teams yung mga players nila kay mr. mvp kaya ganyan ang lineup ng gilas.
Eh ayaw nga mag pahiram ng players ang smb. Injury daw
