Pilipinas U21 beats Saudi Arabia 111-66 (38988)

Big man Ace Julio Madrigal (38155771) stuffed the stat sheet with 20 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks to lead Pilipinas to the win. Carl Elbert Durano (38155281) supported him with 16 points and 9 rebounds on 8-11 shooting and Axel Galanza (38156269) provided a spark off the bench with 17 points.

Pilipinas U21 were able to obtain an early lead 4-2, 1 minute into the game. However, the Saudi Arabians fought hard, keeping the lead at 3. The Filipinos were finally able to extend the lead, needing Atoy Co Mente’s three point shot with 3 seconds left in the quarter to finish it with a score of 25-18 http://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/38988/reportmatch.aspx?.... Pilipinas U21 were finally able to lock down their opponents in the second quarter giving away only 10 points. Pilipinas seemed to pull the game away early in the third, with Madrigal and Durano alternately showcasing their skills to open the quarter 14-2. However, with 7:05 left, things got heated up after a flagrant foul by Madrigal injured Saudi Arabia’s center Umar Hamdan http://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/38988/reportmatch.aspx?.... This gave Saudi Arabia fuel to claw back into the game with a 14-8 run. But Utek Gutierrez came back to life after a scoreless first half, scoring all of his 9 points. Together with the consistency of the Pilipinas U21 big men, the run made by Saudi Arabia was stopped. With 1:56 left on the clock in the third quarter, garbage time was called.

Pilipinas plays their next game next Monday, September 19, 4 PM against India.

Update on U19 Players

Nireview ko na ang mga U19 players at nagmessage na ako sa mga trainees. Sadly, ang ilan sa top trainees natin ay hindi natrain. Dapat namessage ko sila ng mas maaga, pero limited lang ang aking resources. Sa tingin ko magiging mas madali na siya sa susunod na season dahil ang bagong draftees na lang ang kailangan ko imessage. As usual ang weakness ng 19 year olds natin ay jump range, passing at shot blocking. Hopefully maconvince ko ang iba na magtrain. Para sa 18 year olds medyo balanced pa naman ang skills. Hindi ako magpopost ng top players dahil medyo malapit pa ang skill level nila.

Hi guys,

Nagbabalik BB ako, Lolo Smithz si Harold to fellow Cebuano. Let me know anong need nang U21 and Seniors team for the long term, I'll find a trainee and focus on the needs of NT.

Thanks!

Hello! Check mo ito para sa possible U21 candidates (138525.735). Sa ngayon ang needs ng U20 ay rebounding at shot blocking. Ang needs ng U19 naman ay jump range, passing, at shot blocking. Si Coach Ivan ang makakapagbigay ng needs ng NT. Salamat sa interest mo sa U21 at NT.

No problem tol, maghahanap muna ako nang trainee. Thanks!

Hi guys, I have decided to open up a Philippine Center for Basketball excellence. Too busy na ako sa real life so puro training for U21 and NT lang gagawin ko. May 6 M ako without sale of existing assets so bibili ako nang exceptional or world class trainer. Bibili din ako nang magaling na rookies. I will try to maintain league II status to make sure Ican maintain acceptable salaries. I also plan to sell on all U21 or NT products for steady supply for everyone else.Sorry I wasted Libre after saving him for NT, but he will be key for this long term program. Let me know if you guys have any suggestions on how we can execute this. Looking forward to our nations guidance:) Tried to change my name to, next year na.

Percival Himbing (38956635) Joins the U21 Team

The 20 year old point guard is added to the team after an injury to starting SF Chi Delco (38955957). We wish Chi Delco to get well soon and join the next U21 games.

Tune in on Monday, September 19, 4 PM to see Pilipinas U21 live against India.

This is another player I like to share, superstar lang and potential (28406213). Sobrang maximize ang skills niya. The forums were built to exchange ideas between managers. These are the kind of players na hindi natin nakikita dati from potential/cap perspective. We have to open our minds that these players exist and can be built. Ang similiraties na nakikita ko mababa ang JR ang susi. Of course ideal pa rin ang HOF at ATG para sa akin para hindi ka kinakabahan mag cap agad.
