SORRY to burst the bubble of the national basketball team, but in the eyes of Chinese basketball coach Adiljan, Filipinos can't go far in Asian basketball if they continue to play individually.

Adiljan, himself a former star player of China's national team, said that Filipinos lack the most important element in team sportsteamwork.

Speaking through an interpreter in an interview with Standard Today, Adiljan said that Filipino players are skillful and very strong, but they have to go through years of training and sacrifices to learn the art of playing as a team.

Filipinos are born to play basketball. No doubt, in Asia, the Philippines is a strong team. But you play individually, focusing on one-on-one plays, just like in the NBA. That is good for entertainment, but you can never win a basketball game, particularly against China if you can't have teamwork, said Adiljan, a member of the Chinese team that won numerous international titles, including the 1991 Asian Games in Beijing.

The 77-74 victory of Adiljan's young Chinese squad over the Philippines in the just-concluded Four-Nation Manila Invitational Basketball Championships, ironically, won by the Filipinos when they beat Lebanon in the finals, is a clear indication that the RP Team is not yet ready for the Great Wall.

Adiljan proudly said that today, beating China is the standard criteria in the Asian level.

If you beat China, you now pass the Asian level, said Adiljan, who also wondered why coach Chot Reyes was quoted as saying after the game against the Chinese, that China is beatable.

That is not the Chinese national team. My team is composed of players 19 years old and under. They are part of the training pool, but Filipinos failed to raise the level of their game. Yes, the Filipinos won the title, but we beat your team and that is a strong signal that RP Team needs more sacrifice and training, he said.

The Philippines is bracketed with China in what Reyes described as the Group of Death in the Fiba Olympic qualifying tournament set July 23 to Aug. 2 in Tokoshima, Japan. Other members of the group are Jordan and Iran.

He also confessed that his most unforgettable experience as a player was when he went up against the Filipinos, most notably Living Legend Robert Jaworski.

I had a tough but great experience with Filipino players. I don't remember their names, only Jaworski, but I can recognize their face when I meet them, he said.

Adiljan, who brought the entire Chinese Team to a dinner hosted by his close friendathletics chief Go Teng Kokat the China Palace Restaurant in Binondo, stressed that Korea and Japan and the Middle East countries such as Jordan, Qatar and Iran have developed immensely through the years.

Those teams, he added, have tall and hefty players, who can give the Filipinos lots of headache in the coming Fiba tournament.

RP Team can't win against these teams on individual effort. One-on-one play is fitted for the Americans, since they can score easily and burn the hoops with spectacular dunks. That's another level, he said.

After a two-year ban from Fiba, the Philippines, composed of Philippine Basketball Association players, is gearing up for the Tokoshima event as the first step in its dream of regaining its lofty status in Asia and make it again to the Olympics, specifically next year's Beijing Games.

But Adiljan has a piece of unsolicited advice to Filipino basketball leaders and coach Reyes.

As a coach, I never speak against my counterpart's style and system. I respect them. But there is one thing on my mind. Filipino players had been out from international basketball for almost two years, and I don't think the RP Team is ready to play against China and the Middle East teams yet.

You have to focus on scouting first, then tap your best players for training not only for one year, but many years. Only after that can the Philippines be ready to face the challenge in Asian basketball, said Adiljan

Team pilipinas need 1 or 2 7footers even if we get zero offense from them just defense and rebounding. Kaya lng naman naging succesful yung team ni Ron Jacobs dahil may naturalized imports. Yung mga import ang nka-asign sa rebounding at pagdepensa sa malaki ng kalaban tapos sila samboy at caidic ang focus sa scoring.

Yung current team natin, kaya ng mga guards umiscore. ang prob lng kpg hindi kaya ni asi yng oposing center, sobrang liit nlng ng chance natin manalo

oo nga pati jumping ability

kung ikaw bilib na bilib ka sa mga pinoy players natin (pure pinoy nga ba talaga???)
na ga-palito ang talon at ubod ng poporma at yabang lang
then so be it

it's my opinion , you dont have to laugh about it

to each his own

Let me repeat:

I dare not talk about yabang at porma. Am sure I will not be able to make a layup against these guys. One thing I am sure of, jumping capability has nothing to do with being good in international ball, or even in other types of competitions. (Kukoc, Bodiroga, Sabonis, Schmidt, Khatib, etc)

If you can laugh at them because, as you say, they are all porma at yabang at gapalito ang talon, then I am sure you would let me get away with one.

I think the NT pool welcomes all those who think they can do better than this bunch of wannabees.

heartbreaking loss to iran!

 

[lbj19]

yeah, bad start for TP. Looks like we need to wait for another four years to get another crack at it, as China and Jordan are also very tough to beat. Im not saying its impossible but seems like its unlikely.

0 - 3

seigle
caguioa
pennisi
alapag
hontiveros

congrats to TEAM FIL-AMS for the win against china

 

[webnoize]

lahat yan pinoy. hindi pwede maglaro sa ganyang liga ang hindi ligal na citizen ng bansa na represented nila. kung hindi pinoy yan hindi papaglaruin ng fiba yan. pero kung gusto mo ng TOTOONG pinoy, e wala dyan dahil walang mga ita dyan!!!! yung ang purong pinoy, walang halo. ingat lang sa paglabas-labas, lakas ng bagyo dito sa pinas. naka lusot sa pag-asa. sobra kasing taas sa pag-ere.

 

[gameover2]

Great game today versus China.
