Aside from Gilas, I think MVP is also supporting the Azkals. At least ngayon wala na tayong naririnig na mga hinaing tungkol sa financial support. Ang bagong sagabal ay ayaw magpahiram ng other teams ng key players nila siguro dahil sa pulitika...may MVP sa jersey ng Gilas.
Si Manny V Pangilinan ay chairman din po ng TV5 😊
parang newscaster ng TV 5 ah.
curious lang..... sponsored din pala ni MVP ang Askals? puro boyz ang type nyang sponsoran ah.

Delayed start for Gilas-Japan match leaves winner with so little recovery time for final | FIBA | SPIN.PH
imho.... its all about pride and pride cannot win you the championship.
there is a reason why FIBA allowed naturalized players. accept it or not, filipinos do not grow to be agile 6'8" - 7'0". if we do, napakalampa, awkward o madaling ma-injure.... our genetics did not make us that.
JMF is an exemption, but considering the load his body has, unang masisira dyan is yung lower (knees, lower joints) as what happened to Yao Ming.
if FIBA did not allow the naturalization route, it would just be an all out contest between Russia, US, Spain and other Euro countries and Australia and Canada.....
i was a basketball fanatic before until i realized that it's a sport reserved only for nimble giants. let us accept the fact that without an import we won't shine even in asia (our imports, whether in the pba or in the national squad, are not even star players in the nba). yes, let us grant we'll overpower iran or china or whoever is in the way to the finals of fiba asia, but we'll win only to be clobbered in the fiba world or the olympics. why not change our mindset? why not find another sport that we can dominate worldwide and pour in our limited resources there? well, i'm just wondering out aloud.
like golf, badminton and boxing perhaps..... hehehehehe.... i agree, but factor in culture and sociology, we are influenced by the commercial stuff in NBA.... it was good then when Caloy Loyzaga plays center vs. other countries centers who are also about his size....

indonesia is a force to reckon with in the world in badminton. cuba and mexico are powerhouses in amateur boxing. in golf, we have filipino-australian jason day who is one of the greatest golfers in the world today. recently, i was invited to a world dancesport competition at the waterfront. it was funny because i can't dance and dance as a sport is farthest from my mind, but, no, it was impressive. we have the potential to compete with the world's best, and it's a sport played in the olympics.![]()
its the same as women's volleyball. they just realized it when our all star WVT was clobbered at the SEA games.... probably they forgot to realize that Thailand was way ahead of us, much more in the international stage..

I agree with you na di talaga tayo magdodominate with our height. Kaso yan ang hilig ng mga pinoy e. Basta may space magtatayo ng basketball ring. Parang ng hirap atang i-switch ang hilig. Since we are here in car forums, madali ba magswitch ng interest and passion from cars to let say airplanes and jets or other stuff? Maybe the next or 2 generations..
Isa sa sports na na magaling ang mga Pilipino bukod sa Basketball ay boxing. PH is lucky to have a basketball crazy patron named MVP. Imagine kung meron lang MVP ang PH Boxing I think mas realistic yung chances natin sa very elusive na Olympic gold medal. Yun nga lang wala kang aasahan sa government natin.
When Lopezes of Manila finances the boxing program... nandyan nakilala sila onyok at iba nung hindi na sila humawak sa kangkungan na.

Mahirap kasi Pinas. Mahirap mag-support nang sports na walang kikitain kahit kunti ang sponsor. Kaya yung sikat na sports lang nabibigyan din funding. Ganun talaga eh.
Pero hindi ko sinsabi na that is all. Slowly of course if we have financial capacity already, then we can increase funds for sports where Pinoys have a higher chance in getting medals for the country. I think that could still happen.
Ang aga ng pasko ng Gilas. Magkano kaya ang initial bonus? MVP is notorious in giving 7 digit incentives to his TNT players pag nag cchampion.

Kaya siguro desperate na si vice kabayo Kaya kung ano-ano na ginagawa sa showtime dahil natatakot baka hinde niya kayang tapatan pera ni MVP pagnakataon kay Terrence Romeo. [emoji23]
