00:00Ibinahagi ni Gilas Pilipinas coach Norman Black ang mga plano nito sa pagbuo ng kanilang line-up.
00:08Ngayong may ilang buwan na lamang ang natitira bago ang 33rd South East Asian Games sa Thailand.
00:14Ang detalya sa ulat ng teammate Paolo Salamatin.
00:20Balak ng samahang basketball ng Pilipinas o SBP,
00:23natapikin ang servisyo ng mga ilang big men mula sa UAAP at NCAA
00:27na bubuo sa line-up ng Gilas Pilipinas para sa 33rd South East Asian Games ngayong Disyembre sa Thailand.
00:34Ito ang binanggit ni Gilas Pilipinas coach Norman Black at SBP Executive Director Erica D
00:39sa naginap na Philippine Sports Writers Association Forum kamakailan sa Maynila.
00:43Sa kasalukuyan kumpirmado ng mga kalaro ang mga naturalized players sa sina Justin Brownlee at Ange Kwame,
00:49kasama sina Japan B-League players Ray Parks Jr., Matthew Wright,
00:53former NCAA Division I campaigner Remy Martin,
00:57MPBL standouts Dave Ildefonso, Jason Brickman,
01:01at collegiate player Vijay Pre.
01:03Pero Ani Black, schedule ng mga players ang isa sa tinitignan nilang problema ngayon
01:07sa pagbuo ng kanilang line-up para sa Bayinil Meet.
01:10Matatanda ang si Black ang nanguna sa gold medal performance ng bansa bilang coach noong 2011 edition ng SEA Games
01:32na binanderahan ng mga college stars noon na sina Greg Slaughter,
01:36Kiefer Ravena, Chris Chu, at Ray Parks Jr.
01:39Pero ayon kay Black, ibang-iba na ang level ng kompetisyon ngayon sa Southeast Asia kumpara noon.
01:45Things are different in the sense that I think everybody has improved in Southeast Asia
01:49and we can't take for granted that, you know, we can just walk on the court and just beat anybody at this point.
01:55We're gonna have to at least put the best players on the team, try to balance them as much as possible.
02:02I'm probably gonna have about eight days of practice, so I better make the best of it.
02:08Sa kabila ng mga kabigo ang nalasap ng gilas itong mga nakaraang kompetisyon,
02:14sinisigurado pa rin ng SPP na nasa magandang direksyon ng basketball program sa bansa,
02:19pati na rin ang gintong medalya sa SEA Games ngayong taon.
02:22Yeah, I think the goal will definitely be to win the gold medal.
02:27And we'll definitely have a competitive team.
02:31I'm just not sure who they will be right this moment,
02:33but we'll work hard to recruit and try to get the best players to represent the country,
02:40give us the best chance of winning.
02:42Well, Federation work is very difficult, no?
02:45And like Coach Tim, I also always read the comments of everyone on the internet.
02:51Obviously, I don't make it affect my decision-making,
02:54but I do take it into consideration.
02:57Gusto ka lang sabihin sa lahat ng ating supporters, no,
03:01na yung SPP, nakikinig naman tayo.
03:04Mahirap lang talaga yung trabaho, we do what we can with what we're given.
03:09Pero ang mapapangako ko is,
03:12we will always exert our best efforts to give Filipinos the best basketball that we can.
03:20Sa ngayon, oras na mabuo ang SEA Games lineup ng gilas.
03:23Nakatakdang sumailalim sa once-a-week training ang Pambansa Kubonana
03:27tuwing lunes, bago tumulak patungong Thailand.
03:30Paulo Salamatin, para sa atletang Pilipino, para sa bagong Pilipinas.
