No more dribble and drive, but more on moving around even without the ball in hand. Hopefully, what we witness today will always be the same good ball movement and good sets of players inside.

That's what I noticed too, Coach Tim is really different from Coach Chot, and I think his system will be effective for Gilas Pilipinas as it will improve the defense. One significant difference as well is that Brownlee isn't like Clarkson, who is too confident to shoot; Brownlee doesn't hog the ball. He's already accustomed to playing with his teammates due to his experience in the PBA.

Big factor since the focus of the defense coming from the opponents is not just for some key players, with coach Tim all are threats since the ball is moving and each individuals inside the court are all capable in taking the shots, with confidence that they are playing together both defense and offense is really nice to watch with coach Tims' mentoring the Nationals.

Let see if they will continue to play like this and able to upgrade more in terms of rotations and good blending of players
inside the court, and if replacement is needed, the player who will be playing will be aware of his role and will play that
same setup, so there's no problem in terms of executing the plays.

Also, it will help Brownlee conserve his energy going into the 4th quarter because he won't be carrying the team, but he should be the one to take over in the 4th quarter, especially if the team is behind or the game is close. I trust Brownlee, though; he could be a significant factor in delivering success. We haven't won gold for a while, but maybe this is our best chance.

Yes, in terms of leadership Brownlee is reliable and with experienced on how coach Tim work with his players I believe that it won't be hard for him to decide in taking over when the team needed him the most, plus the players who's playing around him is not new most of them already have that chance to play alongside with him.

And with how coach Tim rotating his players, we really see that they are good at executing the same patterns seems even it's a short period for practice. They still understand each role and how they will bring the play in converting both defense and offense.

By the way, we can see the full schedules here ;https://sports.inquirer.net/530206/schedule-gilas-pilipinas-at-hangzhou-asian-games-basketball

Looks like everyday Gilas will have a game, hopefully fatigue factor will not play a big role.

It's not every day; you might overlook the schedule that you shared. The other schedules are for Gilas Pilipinas Women's; they are up against Kazakhstan, Hong Kong, and Japan, while the Men are going to play Bahrain, Thailand, and Jordan.

You can also check the stats here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basketball_at_the_Asian_Games... China has been dominating, as in the last 10 Asian Games, they have won 8 Golds.

When Gilas loses, there will be a lot of negative comments, but if they win, you'll see the words 'proud Pinoy.' That's the kind of mentality, though.

That's definitely normal, and I'm pretty sure Coach Tim Cone is ready for that. But anyway, he does not speak Tagalog, I believe, so those bad comments in Tagalog might not hurt him, unlike Coach Chot, who is a pure Filipino. The way I see it, it seems like we hate our own but love and respect foreigners. We tend to believe that they are better than our Filipino coaches. Well, maybe it cannot be denied, though, as Tim Cone is currently the best coach in the PBA, so he deserves to coach our national team.

Let’s also congratulate our younger Gilas for qualifying for the World Cup U17 next year, we have a better future if we continue the system that we have on our younger teams. I hope our national commission will address this concern and follow the strategy of other countries on molding younger players for their future representative, I think its about time now to have our own solid Gilas team with a solid system.
I read the news, but I wasn't very interested. I'm more focused on the development of our pros who represent Gilas Pilipinas. We had a good tune-up win, and now we're waiting for the result of the first game. Hopefully, it won't disappoint us because we already know how the fans will react.

We have a win tonight.

Gilas ramps up its Asian Games prep with an 86-81 win over the KBL’s LG Sakers in an exhibition at PhilSports Arena.
From one sports. https://www.facebook.com/OneSportsPHL

Just check out the YouTube highlights of this game. I'm sure many Filipino vloggers will be posting videos with their commentaries regarding the win. I hope this trend continues, even though it's just a tune-up game; it's still very important to us.

I like the way he blended the players no offense, but it's very different from how we appreciate the game even it's just a tune up game but we see how aggressive the players are and how they really move the ball and execute good plays after calling it, with JBL and JMF the offense is really allowing them to make a good transitions.

No more bashing; it's good for our Gilas Pilipinas. It seems like the coaching style of Tim Cone is very effective, especially with Brownlee, their best player, working with the Ginebra Gin Kings. A tune-up game against a good team is already a success. I believe they are already prepared for the Asian Games.

Are there any other tune-up games scheduled before their first game in the Asian Games?

Tim cone is the best best coach as we all know how smart he is and wat we saw earlier that they will win against strong team even though that is tune up game then still salute for our players who gave their very best to win that game. And also their lineup is good and the chemistry between the coach and the players has already built. And also our new local player which brownlee he contributed very well and it's. successful.

Asian Games will kick off tomorrow so I think there will be no more exhibition games for the Gilas Pilipinas.

That's why he can't demand higher fees to the team maybe he need to get more trophy or accolades to his team before he can ask that. But it seems that no team can do that since he's not a superstar level like Junemar that's why he became a free agent right now. If he's belief that his worth than that maybe we cannot see him play on PBA anymore.

If we check his stats https://www.flashscore.ph/en/player/teng-jeron/d8S4K9a1/ this is decent but not worth the price demanded.

This guy thinks that teams will pursue him and give him what he asks for. Real talk, he can't even lead his team to a championship and he is asking that kind of money? In the recent draft, there are many rookies that are available in his position, young, talented, and cheaper so I think Converge would let go of this guy.

You are right, maybe we won't see him anymore in the PBA just like what happened to Greg Slaughter.

Did you just guys see another Ahanmisi 2.0? Like what he has asked his former team to have 900k-950k pesos of salary for his contract? The recent guy who did that was Jeron Teng. He's also asking for a high salary from Fiberxers but he's declined. Do you think that a better team will take him?
The salary we are talking about here is monthly? That could be huge because, as far as I know, it was only JMF who received a huge salary like that in the past. So, to demand that kind of salary, they must be really good. I think it's possible if they play overseas, but in the PBA, I think that's too much to ask for a player who hasn't proven anything yet.

He doesn't prove anything yet and asking that price is to much for those team that's why now his old team let him go wherever he want since for sure they are also doubting about their future if they let Teng got what he wish from his team. And also Fajardo deserves that salary since he bring championship to SMB then also he take home a lot of achievements so for sure no people will question him on why he get a lot of money from SMB.

Teng isn't as good as Fajardo; his style of basketball is still predictable, and there are probably many potential stars who could generate the kind of production he has, and perhaps even better. These days, some players are demanding too much, possibly comparing their salaries to what their friends playing overseas are making. However, you know, we are in the Philippines, and a PBA player can only earn a substantial salary if they are an import or a star like JMF.

Judging from his stats, he is not the kind of player who could lead or carry a team to victory. He is just an ordinary player, probably gifted with athleticism, but he isn't even a threat from the outside. His 3-point shooting and perimeter shooting are not that accurate. His best skills are when driving the ball inside, which isn't as dominant as other superstars as well, so it's okay if he is declined.

He wouldn't be called 'Iron Man' for no reason. It was a stage 3 colon cancer, but he survived. God is good all the time.

PBA: Ginebra’s LA Tenorio diagnosed with Stage 3 Colon Cancer – Will he retire from basketball?

As for retirement, there hasn't been any news about that. But it's really surprising that he is cancer-free in such a short span of time. So if he is really 100% back, then there's no doubt he will come back with Ginebra and play.

This is good news for LA Tenorio, one example where money could help you in this situation. He can come back to playing in Ginebra if he wants but if I were him, I would just stick to the coaching job and give his spot to the young guns. He is almost 40 years old so that is already a good reason to retire.

Meanwhile, Kyt Jimenez just got an offer sheet from SMB, not a contract yet but that is a good sign for the last pick of this year's draft. If he can make it to the final lineup then this guy must be good as SMB is loaded with talented guards.

Agree with LA it's better to continue his journey working side by side with coach Tim though it's still his option if he thinks that he can still play and he can still administer inside court, and we know him after Caguioa his the one who continue that kind of leadership to maintain that good chemistry and the type of brotherhood this franchise have.

And in terms of Kyt, the chance of getting an actual contract is nearing. Hopefully, it will be converted to a rookie contract placing him as part of the final lineup.

Ginebra needs a good point guard, and LA can provide that to the team. We know that Ginebra is a super team, probably the best team in the PBA now. I believe what the team needs to do is just to manage his minutes; he can be very helpful in crucial moments, as he has a lot of experience in that and has won most of them.

About Kyt, I think I need to see some of his highlights. It seems like this guy is so hyped right now.
