i agree to proud pinoy, tama kailangan pa ng gilas mgreinforce ng players,
1. c fajardo malabo un pahiram ng smc, c slaughter pwede instead of villanueva.
2. k.williams instead of baracael
3. japeth instead of jr reyes
4. alapag instead of lanete
if smc could lend some of their top players mas mganda un composition ng team. peru kng tlagang hndi papayag ok n un 4 n reinforcement n ito.
parang kaylan lang last week puro batikos ang nababasa sa SMART GILAS 2.O NGAYON iba na .hehehehehe
pilipinas team glory to GOD!
GALING MO IDOL LA..PASALUBONG HA..KAHIT UNG JERSEY MO LANG.HEHEHE .SEE YOU AT REYES GYM MANDALUYONG.
Jeff Chan is TRIGGERMAN 2.0
Sana naman tuloy tuloy na ang pagpapadala nating ng RP team fully loaded with outside shooters. We could have not done it kung hindi super strong ang outside shooting natin. Since we lack in height with the exception of the super strong douthit sana talaga mas malakas pa na outside shooters ang idagdag sa susunod na mga international games. Kudos to LA Tenorio, Marcus Douthit and the entire Smart Gilas Team. Good job !
yes put JAPETH AGUILAR and JUNMAR FAJARDO for added ceiling, replace JR Reyes & Rico Villanueva so we can compete against the mighty CHINA. Congrats Smart Gilas 2.0….galeng nyo
