Eto lng po masasabi ko, like other team in usa, para mpagaling nla ang players nila ay nag scout cla ng player na my potential lyk aguilar, a 69 player whose athletic, but poor s shooting at post up moves, if u rili want to dvelop it u nid sum1 hu cn teach him the moves, dpt mgkaron sia ng individual shooting coach like gnwa ng mavs ky dirk. Pinapraktis po kc yan para madvelop, eventualy lalo umangat laro nia. Gve hm post up move coach para lalo din madvelop, at bata pa naman, like nba players do, they train hard and discpline too. I gues that goes also para sa ibang plyer na ksma smartglas the coaches must focus their skils mre kysa ipakabisdo agd ang system, dhl madali lng po un mkbsado at gwin kung kumpleto sa rekado ng player. A 4 player na shooter sa tres wid height na 63 to 69. Tpos another lyk taulava pero dpt mtngkad pa sa knya. 2 pointguard na tlgang mgling. At c japhet wg nio alisin he is a potential player just needed 2 be dvelop. Peace !
sa tingin niyo pwede bang maisama sina sudan daniel at garvo lanite

FIBA Championnships 2013.
Thanks to MVP, willing p dn syng somuporta sa basketball, most beloved sport by most of filipinos.At sana mkatulong ang point of view ko pra s preparations for upcoming jousts. STEP 1. SELECT THE PLAYERS, MVP qouted He wants a taller point guard, sa mga previous comments ko, things na tnitingnan k for a good player 1.HEART (dapat un all out maglaro at persistent) 2. SIZE (acceptable height at played position, bawasan m un average at max 3″) 3. SKILL. (shot selection, ind. defense,ball handling-eto nakukuha thru training and experiences)- best example ko dito ay si MANU GINOBILI (6’5″+), look at how this guy play, that’s why he excels in both the fiba arena and in the NBA. He has all my parameters. Pede c Gabe Norwood (6’5″)kulang lng tlga sa puso or un intensity s laro(pag drive with tenacity) ang lacking andun n sna lhat.
STEP 2. PREPARE THEM, tama un sbi ng isang fan, we should have specific skill trainer (shooting, defense, post moves) pra ma improve un weakness ng player. expose them s FIBA style, expose them sa PRO style basketball. Now kung mag iinclude ng pro players kelangan tlga ma expose din cla s FIBA style (especially fouls called, defense orientations) A way to do this if we’re getting the main core ng NT from PRO ranks is to adopt a separate conference in the PBA pag may upcoming international events, 1 conference is enough to expose them s FIBA style (pra din 2ng board exams, dpt pagaralan kun ano ang type ng exam).Advantage pag galing s PRO ranks ang players where most talents in our country plays(hasa na, iexpose n lng ng tama ksi example un fouls, akala pde eh hndi nga-disadvantage, hindi allout maglaro,kesyo ma injury). expose din s tall defenders pra sanay o hindi “ilang”. this means alisin un height limit ng imports for this conference, un ibng players n manggagaling s GILAS PROGRAM eto prng investment pr ma sustain ang NT. Dpat all PBA teams ang mag sponsor dito dhil dito din cla mag dadraft just like what happened to LUTZ and others. Kumbga pagpasok s PROGRAM papirmahin n ng contract.
3. SUPPORT THEM(financial and emotional), bka pede din iinvolve kming fans s pagpili nun players thru online voting, lalakas p lalo hatak ng basketball dito ksi involved un fans.
Heto ang PROSPECTS k based on my parameters.
PG- ave height(INTERNATIONAL LEVEL)- 6’3″- SOL MERCADO (6’0″), ALEX CABAGNOT (6’0″)
SG- ave height- 6’5″- GABE NORWOOD (6’5), PETER JUN SIMON (6’2″), CYRUS BAGUIO (6’2″)
SF- ave height- 6’8″- ARWIND SANTOS (6’6″)
PF- ave height- 6’10”- JAPETH AGUILAR (6’9″), KELLY WILLIAMS (6’7″)
C- ave height- 7’0″- MARCUS DOUTHIT (6’10”-athletic)
All the rest from the GILAS PROGRAM: Ravena,Parks, Lassiter, Lutz
POSIBBLE BIG MEN to train,
SAMIGUE EMAN (agile at 6’10”), FAJARDO (good), SLAUGHTER (he needs to toughen up)
Now looking at these talents, cno magsasabing ala hyt pinas, limang players lng ang nsa court, we have acceptable hyt and talent, PUSO (determination n dapat ipakita s paglaro ang kelangan)
Have patience with Aguilar, ma develop lng post defense nya at some post moves (footwork), He’ll be great.
Sol Mercado/ALex Cabagnot- slashers and has good shooting, pero i’m looking for a cerebral point guard like the Flying “A”, mki2ta m kaibhan kya c sol hindi n knuha ni toroman ksi hndi sya effective s FIBA maybe kelangan ny lng masanay.
P.J.SIMON- this guy has the heart and skill, lacking lng s size at 6’2″.
CYRUS BAGUIO- needs to improve his shot selection, turnovers. kelangan ma expose din s true FIBA style.
K.WILLIAMS- VERY GOOD OVERALL DEFENDER, freethrows dpat ksi hindi n sya ipinasok nun ksi crucial tym n,We have the pieces they just have to perform at their best, intensity ang lacking pg s international arena n, so they should be exposed starting s PBA where they play most of the time.
1 more thing, s conference ng PBA na FIBA format. We need to hire true FIBA refs, the game is only as good as the officiating eka nga. Pra close as to real FIBA ang simulation ntn ng mga games so we can select the players n effective s FIBA style, but the bottom of all we need guys that plays with a lot of heart. Thanks and sana my mkabasa from the PBA and all concerned s basketball ntin.
malabo to. closest thing is may mag seminar na fiba ofish. unanag una, mawawalan ng trabaho yung mga refs ng pba na may kontrata sila. pangalawa, yung mga pba ofish na may comish dun sa kontrata sa pba refs. fiba format, ayos na tayo jan. baby steps. nalason na kc tayo ng pba. masyado na pogi ang mga players. kaya pag totoong trabaho/laro na, tamad na sila. na appreciate ko si baguio, nagpepresinta sumali sa gilas. pero sad to say, hindi bagay ang style nya dun. wait na lang tayo, and supportahan sila. go gilas!
To frank, pare basketbol nga gusto eh. Taekwondo? lamang din dyan ang mahaba, imagine m nga 6’3″ against 5’7″ lalapit k p lng abot k n ng sipa. Swimming ganun din, Volleyball, Boxing (reach). Pde cgro chess, billiards, shot put, javellin throw.
