Saturday, July 18, 2015. Play him or trade him. Photo credit: Sports5.ph). While we love what you have done in the last few years, primarily what former head coach Luigi Trillo introduced and what Alex Compton is currently trying to perfect, please be assured that we are not at all fond of how one Calvin Abueva is being treated/ utilized. Calvin "why is he still playing 28 minutes or less" Abueva. Let it be known right here, right now: Calvin Abueva is the best player on the entire Alaska Aces' roster.

Thursday, October 30, 2014. A runner-up finish in the 2012 FIBA Asia championships, a Jones Cup title, a lonesome yet historic victory in the 2014 FIBA World Cup and finally, a seventh-place finish in the SouthEast Asian Games. Whatever it may be, know that this is not a dark day in Philippine basketball but rather a bright one. Posted by Angel Velasco. Links to this post. Manny V. Pangilinan. Thursday, October 23, 2014. The Great Debate: Johnny vs Jimmy. The Flying A vs The Mighty Mouse. PBA Hall of Fame.

The late Richard Nixon, the 37th president of the United States, was once quoted for saying that the strongest steel goes through the hottest fire. While were not entirely sure that Gilas 3 has gone through the hottest of ordeals (yet, or maybe theyre in the middle of it), they sure as hell arent enjoying the cool breeze as they prepare for the FIBA Asia tournament this coming September 23.

Pilipinas Basketball Commentary by A. Velasco: February 2015

Saturday, February 28, 2015. Mind, body and Sol. Oye mi canto, we hear you Sol Train. Photo courtesy of Sports5). Its been a while, Mr. Mercado. We must admit, it was rather difficult to watch Mercado with the Beermen as he transitioned from lead, combo guard to a role-playing starter who had to split time with his brother Chris Ross, a player who, for all his tenacious defense, has about as many moves on offense as a basketball newbie.

http://kilikilishot.blogspot.com/2015/08/beeryear.html

Monday, August 3, 2015. Photo credit Sports5.ph). It has been a very good harvest for the San Miguel Beermen at the close of the PBA's monumental 40th PBA season. We saw two more teams added into the already unpredictable mix of PBA franchises duking it out conference after conference, not to mention us having to bear with the "joke" that is Manny Pacquiao, certified PBA playing-coach, plus the first ever jam-packed opening game held at the jaw-dropping Philippine Arena in Bulacan. And they did that, wit...

Monday, July 27, 2015. Life at the crossroads. Is Almazan the future for RoS? Photo credit: Sports5.Ph). Before we begin, we would like to share with you a piece of trivia from Takehiko Inoues Slam Dunk manga about a team that made it into the Inter-High competition. No, we will not touch on Shohokus triumphs but rather the team that they first faced in the IH- Toyotama. Lets stop with the trivia right there, and switch to real life, PBA action.

Sunday, May 31, 2015. There's a new kid in town. Photo courtesy of Sports5.ph). Much like how the Clippers have managed to steal some of the Lakers thunder in Los Angeles, there is a PBA point guard who is slowly turning heads and opening eyes with his heady yet exciting brand of basketball by the name of L.A. Revilla, not Tenorio. Now on his second year of professional basketball after playing only three (! Posted by Angel Velasco. Links to this post. A new day for the Beermen. Posted by Angel Velasco.

Pilipinas Basketball Commentary by A. Velasco: #KangCone

http://kilikilishot.blogspot.com/2015/07/kangcone.html

Thursday, July 16, 2015. To put things in perspective, polarizing sports writer/ reporter Snow Badua was the first to hint at a possible coaching change that could greatly affect the PBA landscape. Today, Badua's "tweeter hint" actually made it to the mainstream media, with no less than veteran sports guys from Nelson Beltran of The Philippine Star to Fidel Mangonon III of Spin.Ph writing about this quite sensitive and surprising topic. Tim Cone to Ginebra.". Will it work for Ginebra though? He's been ru...
