Ano ba ang reality?? If we can’t beat China what next for qualifying?
sa pagka alam ko ang FIBA ASIA Champ ang automatic mag qualify sa Olympic pero di pa sarado ang goal ng Gilas sa Olympic dahil may magaganap pa na mga laro at yun ay gaganapin sa July 2016 at kasali ang Gilas sa lalaro, at pinaka mabigat na kalaban jan ay Iran, pero kung papalarin ang Gilas sa Wildcard Olympic Qualifier Tournament na yan makakalaro pa rin ang Gilas Pilipinas sa RIO.
Hindi po Iran ang pinakamabigat na kalaban, isha-shuffle ang mga teams sa tatlong grupo, at kung sino ang may pinakamagandang standing kada grupo ‘yon ang tatlong teams na qualified sa Rio Olympics.

Kung maayos na ang papeles ni Tautuaa na maging Fil-Foreigner, pwede sya sa PF.
Masyado pang bata si Kobe sa 2016.
Sana maayos na ang lagay ni Kelly Williams sa 2016. Kailangan ng Gilas ang high leaper sa team para sa dagdag depensa at rebound.
Andray “Big Dray” Blatche 6’11 Center/Forward
Japeth Aguilar 6’8 3/4 Power Forward (blocking and spacing)
Kobe Paras (6’6″) needs to hone skills first, so, go for Clarkson (6’5″)
Marcio Lassiter 6’2″ Shooting Guard (best shooter and good defender)
Jayson Castro-William 5’10” Point Guard (quickness and playmaking skills)
Terrence Romeo (5’10 1/2″) or Kevin Alas (6’0″) for Point Guard
Ray Parks Jr 6’3″ Shooting Guard (upgraded version of Abueva)
Gabe Norwood 6’5″ Guard/Forward (best wing defender)
Troy Rosario 6’7″ Power Forward (can run, rebound and shoot outside)
June Mar Fajardo 6’9 1/2″ Center (most dominant local player)
Kevin Ferrer 6’4″ Guard/Forward (young, athletic defender and shooter)
K. Williams 6’4 1/2 (toughness, he’s bulkier), or I. Sangalang 6’6 3/4″
Reserves:
Intal 6’4″ or Guevarra 6’2 1/2 (role players can run, cut and shoot 3s)
Moala Tautuaa 6’7″ Power Forward (in case Blatche gets injured)
– list contains the actual/official height of each players
– no Lee-Dalistan because he’s a bit slow and has no defense
– no Pingris or Abueva, we need to practise playing with more height
Maglalaro ba si Blatche?
