    Congrats Smart Gilas 2.0! wala naman kelangan palitan sa line up. Buo na lang ang PBA isa pang team at gawin praktisan ng Smart Gilas 2.0.hehehe…

  2. oo nga alisin muna coach siot cla villanueva at barracael palit nio sila yansi de ocampo at arwind santos lalaks lalo smart gilas

  3. alang wenta enricko maglaro bangko lang sa pba nsali pa d man lang nakapag contribute sa team painira lang plitan na dapat xia we

  4. rosser kala namia magaling ala din pla wenta parang villanueva at mac mac dapat palitan na cla

  5. r5emz says:

    d na kailangang palitan kc more on kinuha ni coach chot yung puro maasahan sa depensa kc madali gumawa ng puntos pero mahirap kung mahina dumepensa doon nagpokus c coach chot reyes……

  6. RhainMan says:

    No need to change their line-up. Not necessarily na lahat eh star players sa team. But players na maaasahan at will be fit sa system ni coach Chot. Chemistry will be the answer. Whether big or small teams ang kalaban eh ang importantante talaga eh who will fit the system and of course, has a Big HEART para manalo – dehado man tayo o hinde.

    Go Team Pilipinas!

    kahit ganyan lang ang team hindi gaanong malakas pero pweding gawing malakas yan pag yung coach ay may angking talino n kaya nyang desiplinahin at dalhin ang kanyang team sa oras ng laro. Nasa coach lng din yan ang susi ng tagumpay.

  8. Joel says:

    They need DEFENSIVE players and players that have GUTS to shoot or play in the international game environment as if they were playing in the PBA and can show their ACE Game like LA, Jeff, Gary, Gabe, Larry etc. to sustain the points needed for them to win, and to stop opponent scoring to much….

  9. Donbrendz Pomala says:

    My congratulations to Smart Gilas 2.0. Good job coach chot. Lets go for more! Let us conquer FIBA Asia Cup as well to be able to compete for FIBA world championship against the best of the basketball world.

    I suggest that jason castro, kelly williams, marcio lassiter and japeth aguilar be included in the team.

  10. yanzkey says:

    The best thing to really beat powerhouses in Asia like China and Iran is to stabilize d big men rotation of smart gilas 2 and to maintain the fluidity of our offensive options. Remember some teams may twin tower combination, may dalawang 7footer sa starting line up, at 6’8 or 6’6 ang mga SG nila. Somtyms disorganize ang offensive attack natin its mainly because of tall defnders kahit shoøting guard sa ibang asian team is very tall kaya prone tayo sa turn over. Kailangan may legitimate back up si marcus. I dont think Thoss is effective if MARCUS is resting. Then we shoot add more tall shooters sa ating team. Gary David ang Larry Fonacier somtyms forced shot ang kanilang bitaw sa tres except if they are wide open. Imagine if Hamed Haddadi of Iran is playing in the recent jones cup, we are doubtful if tayo ang magwagi sa jones cup, we’re lucky we beat Iran at d ryt tym. But, i would credit to coach ”Chot” for being the best coach for d Philippine team.
