Go Smart Gilas! Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!

ouch sloppy start... but i'm putting my hopes on them. Tama na yung pagbuo ng team ng superstars pero sari-sarili kung dumiskarte. It's time for this sort of team na sama samang madevelop sa simula pa lang.

Goooooo Pinas!

Our 4th prospect for naturalization, Marcus Douthit (6-11. 233 lbs) finally signed for a 1 year contract at hoping na maihabol ang papel niya para makapaglaro with our National Team sa 16th Asian Games, 2010 Guangzhou , China on November 12-27.

Yes sir, sana nga because Kelly Williams of T n T will also reinforce them pagdating ng Asian Games.

ayus yan..sana kunin din nila si arwind santos para atleast may tagasalo pag medyo kinabog ang mga bata...

Sana maganda ang pasok natin sa mga laban. Mukhang malalaki ang line up natin. May panlaban na kay Hamed Haddadi.

full support din ako sa smart gilas, mas mgusto ko pa pinapanood mga laban nila kesa sa pba ngayon,

Promising nga sila.
Sila nagchampion dyan satin di ba?

Napanood ko ang laban nila at maganda ang chemistry nila.
Mas maganda nga yung ganitong wala pang superstar para lahat pantay
pantay. Kita ko na agad yung team work ng team na to.

Sana lang palarin tayo para tumaas ang kumpyansa nila sa sarili.

OT:
Ibang lahi lang ang Coach eh, bakit kaya?

Sponsor ba nila ang SMART Telecom?

Ayos panalo yan basta may team work good luck...sa team philippines

@ torvicz - yes dude, iba ang lahi ng coach natin, kasi mas sanay siya sa international style of basketball unlike our loacal coaches na sa pba lang nasanay, and yes supported sila ni Manny V. Pangilinan who owns smart, pldt, talk and text. Thats why sister team nila ang talk and text ng pba.

Pwede rin sir boks, kaso mas malakas na naman Haddadi sa ngayon bec. of his NBA experience.

Parehas tayo sir, lagi nga akong nagtyatyaga sa live streaming kasi wala man lang tv network dito sa atin na nagcocover ng live na laban nila. Sana nitong darating na jones cup meron.

Yap, talo tayo sa Iran, wala pa si Haddadi niyan. I think kulang tayo sa mga big man. For me, kailangan talaga ang PBA reinforcement for our national team. Tsk tsk tsk
