BREAKING NEWS:


Batiller, Charcos, De Leon - out of the line-up

Sabi sa grapevine - gamefixing issues daw hindi daw acads tulad nung lumabas sa articles.

Sabi naman sa mga comments, may nakakita daw kina Pumaren na nagbenta ng laro.

Lagi na lang ganito. kakasawa na.

Admin, yung kay Batiller halata talaga yung gamefixing nagstart yan nung 2015 sa 2nd round yung biglang humina and bumaba ang scoring, sa HTC hindi ganayan ang laro nya, consistent talaga sya baba scoring pero konti lang. Ano yung may nakakita kina Pumarenn? Si Pumaren ang nagbenta or nakita ni Pumaren na nagbenta? Malamang may kukuha dyan kay Batiller (yung nagbayad sa kanya)

to quote: "may nakakita daw kay Pumaren na nagbenta ng laro"

di na inielaborate eh kung ano details eh. kinomment din ng kapatid ni batiller un sa post sa ue red tribe fan page.

Uu nga ang pangit ng laro nya, puro errors sya tapos nagheheroball tapos bigla kapos lol

Narinig ko din sa paligid yung kay Batiller...biglaan kasi paurong performance niya after an explosive season opener, pero pwede rin namang nabasa style niya ng other schools at wala siyang pangcounter sa ginagawa sa kanya which eventually led to his poor performance. Haka haka lang ang lahat hangga't hindi pa napapatunayan.

Nakanonood din ako ng ilang practices ng MBT sa Gym 5.

Observations ko ay Jason Varilla's shooting form vastly improved from last year. Clutch and bihira magmintis sa shooting niya in practice (let's see kung ganoon pa din kapag actual UAAP na).

Green brothers got great ball handling skills too, mahilig din sumalaksak sa ilalam.
Batiller, well kahit sa practice kulelat, naiiwanan sa takbuhan, heroball ang laro sa scrimmage.

Bartolome: Daming extra dribbles sa ilalim bago shumoot, huli na tuloy siya at basang-basa ang gagawin niya. Malambot din sa post.

Acuno: Yet to prove himself, malaki expectation ko dito pero wala pang nilalabas na laro. Hindi ko alam kung bakit.

Manalang: Excellent ball handling skills and high basketball IQ. Magaling mag-setup ng plays. Nagb-bulk up na din ng katawan.

Pasaol: Mas pumayat at mas bumilis pa. Nag-aadjust pa siguro sa new weight niya noong napanood ko pero overall, great form. Maging consistent lang siya sa performance niya, he can be the next King Warrior and a threat to other teams.

Overall, aside from our shooting woes last season, hilaw ang big men natin lalo kaaalis lang ni RR de Leon sa team. Sana matugununan ito ng coaching staff or else, parang "donut" na naman tayo.

Wala pa sa Team A nag-attitude na.

May attitude karamihan. Pero buti yung Varilla Brothers wala.

All UAAP, NCAA teams to compete in 2017 Premier Cup



In the 11th edition of the Filoil Flying V Premier Cup, every UAAP and NCAA team have been signed up to take part in the mos prestigious pre-season tournament in Manila,
the league said Thursday afternoon at the Filoil Flying V Centre in San Juan City.

Last season, both UST and JRU declined to join the tournament.

Just like last season’s format, the 18 teams will be split into two groups with the top four teams advancing to the quarterfinals.

Defending champions De La Salle University Green Archers headline a stacked Group A. Joining them are UAAP runners-up Ateneo de Manila University Blue Eagles and NCAA
champions San Beda College Red Lions. Rounding out the stacked group are the Colegio de San Juan de Letran Knights, the Jose Rizal University Heavy Bombers, the Lyceum
of the Philippines University Pirates, the University of Perpetual Help System DALTA Altas, the University of the East Red Warriors, and the University of Santo Tomas Growling Tigers.

In the other group, last year’s runners-up, the Arellano University Chiefs lead the line-up. They are joined by the Adamson University Soaring Falcons, the College of Saint Benilde
Blazers, the Emilio Aguinaldo College Generals, the Far Eastern University Tamaraws, the Mapua Institute of Technology Cardinals, the National University Bulldogs, the San Sebastian
College-Recoletos Golden Stags, and the University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons.

The league is scheduled to open on Saturday, April 29. Tentative opening day games are La Salle versus UE (2:00pm), San Beda vs. Ateneo (4:00pm), and Flying V vs. Arellano (6:00pm).

The top four teams will advance to the quarterfinals that is scheduled to take place on June 21.

Flying V’s D-League team will be listed as a guest team with their games having no effect on the standings.

There will be plenty of underlying story lines in this year’s edition of the tournament as FEU head coach Olsen Racela, NU’s Jamike Jarin, San Beda’s Boyet Fernandez, and
Saint Benilde’s TY Tang are set to make their coaching debut with their new squads. In addition, all the teams will parade their new recruits in the tournament headlined by
CJ Perez’s return to collegiate basketball.

All games will be held at the Filoil Flying V Centre in San Juan City.

Any idea about the lineup we're parading on this tourney?

ALVIN Pasaol almost turned hero to zero but breathed a big sigh of relief after University of the East escaped with a thrilling 72-71 win over Ateneo in the FilOil Flying V Preseason Premier Cup on Wednesday.

Pasaol led the Red Warriors with an all-around outing of 23 points, 10 rebounds, three assists, four steals, and a block. But he botched two pressure-packed free throws inside the final 30 seconds nearly cost UE the game.

Fortunately for the Red Warriors, Chibueze Ikeh missed a potential game-winning putback in the ensuing play. None was happier than Pasaol with the turn of events.

"Naisip ko nun (nung sumablay), 'Patay ako kay manong (coach) Derrick Pumaren.' Kung natalo kami patay ako kay manong," said Pasaol during the post-game interview.

UE kicked off its campaign on a winning note while handing the Blue Eagles their second loss in as many games.

Game observation:

Ayon sa 2 games na napanood ko ang strength pa din ng team ay ang guard position.

1.May 2 bagong pg na able at maasashan:
a. Maloles - 3pointer, eto ung may video na sunod sunod syang nag 3points nang walang mintis. may designated plays din para sa kanya parang kay Pasaol. dadaan sa screen lilipat sa kabilang side para mag 3.
b. Cullar - filipino based in italy. Able pg, parang charcos kumilos at sumang kung magdala ng bola. stable pg. mas okay na kapalitan ni manalang kesa kay armenion.

Pinagsasabay sia Maloles at Cullar palagi.

2. Shortage sa center
a. We have to be contented kay Bartolome at Acuno ulit.

3. Wings/Small Forward
a. May Magbuhos brothers from Italy din mukang ok sila - 6'5 at 6'2
b. Wala masyadong playing time ang green bros pero si jonathan green may tira sa 3points.
c. Last game againts UST, ganda ng laro ni Derige at Olayon. Naka 4 na tres si Derige. Si Olayon sobrang efficient.
d. Jason Varilla - medyo nawala shooting nya unlike nung 1st year nya sa Team A

Pag pumutok ng sabay sabay si Olayon, Derige, Pasaol at yung Maloles offensive juggernaut tayo.

Key observations:

Di na masyado nagfullcourt press buong laro si Manong Derek. Mas maganda pulso ng players natin hindi tulad pag buong laro ang press.

Sana naman ganito din sa UAAP. Lupaypay na players natin pagdating ng 4th.

Larupay and Penuela are out of Team A.

Lumaki katawan ni Gagate pero butterfingers pa din. Si Pasaol nabawasan konti ang taba at nagmuscle konti.

Mukang kalahati ng Team ay rookies this season.

We defeated Ateneo by a mere point. We defeated UST with 2 imports in their lineup.
Pero tambak tayo sa JRU.

Si Jordan Sta. Ana ay naglalaro na sa UST.

Update kung bakit tinanggal sina Batiller, Charcos, at De Leon:

Ayon sa source ko yung kay Batiller at Charcos alam nyo na.

Si De Leon daw ay nagtry-out sa D-League ng hindi nagpapaalam kay Coach Derek.

----

Regarding sa import - UE Management daw ang ayaw magpasok ng import hindi daw si Coach Derek.

Mahal daw magmaintain ng foreign player.

Hay. Kung Adamson nga nakakapag maintain ng import, UE pa kaya na isa sa pinakamayamang unibersidad???

Kakafrustrate. We have the tools, center lang talaga problema natin!!!

Sabi nga ni Sakuragi: "The one who controls the rebunds, controls the game!!!"

Ung ibang school talagang active sila sa recruitment. Dapat UE mag invest sila sa import kasi kaya naman nila eh. Syempre ung mga notable high school players bago sila mamili ng schools na papasukan, icoconsider dn nila ung dadatnan nilang teammates. Nakakamiss nung college pa ko, elmer espiritu, pari llagas days. Center lang talaga kulang natin. Sana lang talaga mag invest UE. Ganda naman ng result nung nagka import tayo. Import importimport please para competetive naman laban natin sa ibang schools. T.T

bakit nga ba nawala si Batiller at Charcos?
