Mga fil-am parang sinampal ni jeremy lin

[tomboy]

Mas athletic pa nga mga fil-am pero nandito sa pba nambobola. Naalala ko yung si menk nilumpo yun sa bar sa pambabastos.

Hindi ko rin magets bakit walang mid-range game ang pinoy. Kung matangkad ka ok lang magfocus ka sa penetration/ilalim pero kung hinliliit eh matatapal ka lang sa loob. Kaya effective si lin dahil sa mid range game nya.

At ang hindi ko maintindihan sa fil-ams ang tagal na dito sa pinas hirap magtagalog. Eh yung mga iranian friends ko 6months kala mo taga recto nakatira pag nagtagalog.

Pretentious mga fil-am dito. Magsasabi proud to be filipino pero hirap magtagalog kahit 10years na nakatira.

[tomboy]

Alam ko na sino idol ng mga fil-ams...... Si martin nievera. Ang tagal na sa pinas hirap pa din magtagalog with matching nabubulol pa kunyari.

I guess its a matter of exposure. As far as I could recall, there is not much fil-am players that went into the draft. Lin actually joined the draft but was not picked. But before that, he was an outstanding player in college. However, nobody takes notice of talents coming from Ivy League schools such as Harvard. In short, they just didn't considered he would flourish in the NBA.

Lin is a fluke. A fluke that we all would like to see and be inspired of. Enjoy it while it lasts, and I hope it lasts for a long time.

On a side note, I did wish the son of Bobbie Parks took the offer from Georgia Tech. He could have been playing in the NBA in the future.

Mabobobo lang siya sa UAAP...

Partida pa nga yan pure asian si lin. Kung fluke ewan ko dahil wala din depensa si steve nash pero nabubuhay sa nba dahil may mid-range game.

Ang pinoy at fil-am ang alam magdribble. Milo best ang gusto dito..... Iinom ng milo tapos kakanta ng

"Great thing starts from small begining......
Reach early for your dreams.....
Face the day its a new challenge a chance to be better a chance to become your dream."

Tapos magdidribble lang. Hahahahah. Naalala ko talaga si helterbrand and cagiuioa sa fiba or asian games ata yun. Hala dribble....dribble.

"Growing up with olympic energy
Growing up with milo
Milo everyday"

btt. eh si taulava nga naging pinoy, yung nanay taga samar daw. eh ni single tagalog or visayan word, hindi ata marunong.

I think the problem is simply we don't have a deep enough talent pool and a deep enough league to produce exceptional players.

I mean, look at Europe. In the last decade or two, they've finally reached the point where they can sometimes go toe-to-toe with the big boys... the NBA. But the NBA has the big money and the big names, and with the huge feeder series and talent pool (grassroots level), American basketball has the ability to produce great players. And not always American ones (Ginobli, Lin, Hakeem, etcetera).

300 million people in the USA. High standards of living. Lots of room to make a living playing sports. Of course they can produce better players.

But they can't produce boxers worth **** compared to Mexico and the Philippines (again, better grassroots level programs).

Our problem here is even if we have kids playing basketball from an early age, we don't have the proper ladders and feeder series to properly train a great many of them to excel at it. The Milo clinics are a good start, but we need more.

Personally, I don't give a crap. I'd rather see football developed more, because that suits us (short) Filipinos better.

Pretentious mga fil-am dito. Magsasabi proud to be filipino pero hirap magtagalog kahit 10years na nakatira.

Ang ibig mong sabihin:

"Ang yabang naman ng mga Fil-Am na ito. Nagsasabi sila na "Proud to Be Filipino" pero hirap mag-Tagalog kahit sampung taon na sila nakatira dito."

Manlalait ka na, di pa diretsong Tagalog ang gamit mo...

Di naman "pretentious" yung nahihirapan magtagalog. Kulang lang yan sa exposure. Madaling mag-pick-up ng tamang accent kung yung mga kausap mo puro Tagalog. Nung bata ako, araw-araw akong sumasakay sa jeepney at kumakain sa gotohan, pero di pa rin ako diretso mag-Tagalog. Nahihiya nga ako, ang lakas mang-asar ng mga tao pag baluktot ka magsalita kahit mala-Kris Aquino ang pag-ta-"Taglish" nila.

Pero ang gamit namin sa iskwelahan at bahay Ingles, dahil taga-US din ang mga kasama ko diyan. Sa loob lang ng UP ako natuto na mag-Filipino na husto. Dahil lang sa araw-araw na pagsasanay sa pakikipagtalo sa mga kaklase kong leftista. :hysterical:

Obviously, the PBA is not UP. The commentators speak English, the reporters speak English, the announcers speak English, the (sometimes foreign) coaches and (sometimes foreign) players speak English. When the players get off work, they end up hanging around with other Fil-Ams, so... Ingles pa rin. Kung gusto mong masanay ang mga yan, dapat ipagbawal ang pag-Ingles sa PBA. Aprub?

Pinoys excel more in idividual sports, boxing and pool (billiards). Sana TENNIS meron din..

wala talaga ako bilib sa basketball sa atin. Magaling lang ang Pinoy laban sa kapwa Pinoy, like PBA, UAAP, etc. Especially basketball, hindi man lang maka-qualify sa olympics. Paano- drible ng drible e. hindi mag-shoot kung hindi ilalapit sa ring. bakit pa pahirapan ang sarili kung pwede naman manalo thru precise outside shooting. yun ang skill na wala sa mga players- at maging sa coach & trainers.

Actually, come to think of it... it may also be because in those sports, you can already earn a living at an amateur or semi-professional level, so even poorer players can keep in practice.

Whereas with basketball, you will not earn until you're in a professional league. And the only way to climb the ladder to the professional leagues is to be good enough in High School to get drafted (on a full scholarship, including books and boarding) to a big University team. Which happens to very, very, very few players. Not enough teams, not enough scouts.

RE: Shooting: Yeah, the perimeter shooting locally is kinda pathetic. Not like before where we didn't focus so much on the physical game and players like Caidic could shine.

I miss the announcers crying out: "Raaaaaiiiiiiinboooow Country!!!"

one thing more, jeremy lin is not asian built. laking amerika talaga at ang kinain mula nung bata e malamang pagkain america.:D

Doon sa sinabi ko hindi lang basketball player. Yung mga iranian dentistry students 6months pa lang sa pinas pag nagtagalog kala mo sa recto nakatira. Pero yung fil-am pre-med student mga super feeling.

Ang idol ng mga fil-am si martin nievera. Nabubulol-bulol kunyari. Pero 10 years na nakatira.

Pero bakit ang bisaya pag pumunta sa states ang bilis magka-slang. Nakakaloka.

Pag-islang kasi,- madaling maintindihan ng mga Kano... E ang bisaya kasi,- may pagka-islang na...

I remember some years ago, inggit na inggit ang mga kasama ko sa akin dahil madali kaming magkaintindihan ng counterparts naming mga Kano. Sabi ko sa kanila,- "islangin mo kasi."

Ayun,- inislang nga ng mga damuho,- mabilis na ang mga telecons namin.... :hysterical:
