Phillips was their MIP at the Kadayawan. He's the reason why imports didn't dominate La salle. Hopefully he gets to play as a local for Gilas very soon. That'll be like having a much taller Pingris
I really hope he gets exception to play as a local. I love his energy and believe he has potential to transition to the 4 full time if he keeps on working on his game esp his 3pt shot and ft. -Maui
My DLSU Lineup Locks: David, Macalalag, Alian, Rubico, Ramiro, Austria, Gollena, Abadam, Dungo, Marasigan, KQ, Mike Philipps, Raven, Henry, Konov. 16th man will be either Santi Romero or Justin Buenaventura. Also, Motor Mike will be a perfect Japeth replacement and hopefully he do his talking of playing for 5 full years so malaki chance nya maging eligible sa Gilas. For KQ, he must control his composure in the endgame, kailangan wag nyang madaliin ang mga shots nya, less questionable 3s lang just set up a play first then na dadating din ang time na he has the opportunity to take the big shot.
Agree kay KQ as i said in this episode. I know he has the scoring abilities now but do not forget that his greatest original skill was his passing 😊 - Gab
Hanep sa yaman ung dalawang yan. Mas lalo na si Romero, ksma sa forbes dad nya. Damn son. They better prove themselves to wear that green and white jersey.
Lasalle has always been loaded. They never had issues with recruiting top talent. They have had problems getting the right coach to harness the talent of blue chip recruits. Coach Topex has done a good job establishing a winning culture. As was the case when Coach Aldin was the coach. Remember even recently they were able to get Nelle, KQ, Mike Phillips etc even before winning a Uaap title. -Maui
Gab is right. I think DLSU should take care of Rubico. He can be one of those players who transfers and becomes a superstar in another school with lack of playing time with DLSU like Cortez and Bolick.
If he stays, his peak will be a back up to Baclaan and Cortez at either guard spot. Buuuuut like you said, if he transfers, he can potentially be a breakout star Very similar to Cyril Gonzales of UP. It's obvious he has the skills and now that he's back in Mapua, watch out. I think he can breakout as a star next to Clint Escamis
Rubico was a revelation in his last two games in Davao. Hope they take care of him. Baclaan is not even sure of making it in 88. The mess he made could turn out to be a disaster for him if the La Salle board chooses not to accept him in the team
I expect KQ to be veteran Nelle type leadership and faster ball handling. He gets cooked by athletic wings like Lopez Perkings etc He must absolutely maintain composures. Been taking a lot of rushed shots esp in the late.
True. Athletic wings try him a LOT.. and his endgame issues, I think he misses a Nelle type composure guard to calm them down (then again he is the Elder statesman now in 2024 he should be the composed one)
KQ is still transitioning to playing the wing/guard position fulltime. There will be heartaches but you can see the potential. With the way he works I’m sure he’ll ge a lot better come 2nd round. -Maui
DSLU just defeated 2 PBA teams and lost by 1 against a 3rd. I think we are the only country in the world where basketball amateurs are willing to keep their amateur status as long as possible. People would argue that they need time to be ready to move on, the wins against these professional teams go against this. The only reason i can think of is that the monetary rewards are sufficient - and they don't pay taxes (we are enabling them) and they need to play only 2 months in a year. The UAAP values say "By emphasizing the importance of sportsmanship, UAAP creates an environment that encourages collegiate sports teams to compete with dignity and uphold the principles of fair play", but a professional league disguising as amateur without clear rules on allowances and recent massive piracy of talent goes against the direction of fair play. Soon enough the league will lose excitement without a balance of talent. One last observation is that these changes exacerbated when politicians became boosters.
@@bolerosph nyahahha wag muna please haha yung isa nga dun parang takot pa sa bola at takbong pang intrams eh 😅 I hope they stick to whatever principles they have and stop lining up kids who really can’t make it. Sayang yung totoong talented and hardworking.

Hey Maui, reminder na nag-commit ka na mag-sando in a previous ep. Sumama ka na rin Sam. 😂 About DLSU beating PBA teams, to be fair naman they did not need a FSA. Actually lugi PBA teams if may FSA DLSU kasi may 6’6 height limit pa rin imports sa PBA this upcoming conference, next conference pa daw yung unli height. Sobrang joke talaga na sa pro level may height limit ang import pero sa college walang limit ang FSA. Generally agree with your line-up. I’m also unsure about the last spots sa roster if mas advantageous na ilagay mga “trust fund players” (Zamora, Romero) or mga players na pwedeng hugutin/i-develop (Ogana, Buenaventura). Depends gaano kalaki contribution ng families ng legacy players siguro hahaha idk. Si Isaiah Phillips feel ko pwedeng mag-follow sa footsteps ng Kuya Ben niya and join DLSU men’s volleyball as MB (not a lot of tall boys sa men’s vb here in PH kasi hinahatak agad tall boys sa basketball from a young age). I really hope DLSU coaches and management communicate to the players na who will make the roster para may time pa mga players like Alian to transfer last-minute and just use the upcoming year for residency. Agree na si Luis Pablo sobrang malas. 😅 He was one of the first bigs who went to DLSU this offseason, so I’m assuming he didn’t have all the info when he made his decision to go there. Ang malas niya kasi Konov and Amos went to DLSU after he went there.
Hmm i think they will play their full 5 years, especially KQ. He recruited his friends, Baclaan and Cortez, to play with him so medyo kupal naman kung aalis siya hahahaha - Gab
hope they stop forcing Jcee at the 1... shaky handling lalo na pag end game.. he's a natural SG not pg David is a better option at PG now, Rubico can have the future GAB..
Hopefully David can get healthy. Rubico looks like he has potential to be good. Problem is Baclaan and Cortez is coming next season. He me be buried on the bench for the next couple of years. -Maui
@@bolerosph for next year, i think they’re going the Nelle/Nonoy PG/SG route for Cortez, Baclaan.. while Rubico comes off the bench as the 2nd string PG (like how David came on for Nelle).. let’s see 😄
Sobra lakas UP next season. Dami nalagas sa DLSU, especially Nelle. Sgro next, next season kaya na, pero next season i doubt it, la na rin si Poli. Who know or another epic fail of UP, nauna ksi bonfire bago ung prize.

DLSU Beating Two PBA Teams, is just scary.
Great Episode as Always, Sam Gab and Maui! 👌
Hahaha thank you Sir Jeffrey! - Maui

Boleros you guys should be the commentators for the UAAP, mas okay tlga. Ganda ng combination nyo.
Hehehe thank you! We doubt it will happen but we never know 😁
The Zamora or Romero trust fund comment got me 😂
Hahaha! We gotta call it as it is! -Maui
Hanep sa yaman ung dalawang yan. Mas lalo na si Romero, ksma sa forbes dad nya. Damn son. They better prove themselves to wear that green and white jersey.
Love the candid comments Gab! Let’s call it as it is
Hahahahaha just being honest 🤣 - Gab
I believe DLSU had only 15 players last yr ( w/ Isaiah Philips included ) and I heard Coach Topex said he has 1st, 2nd & 3rd group in practices.
They are loaded, topex has done a great job attracting players to join dlsu and of course management is superb
Lasalle has always been loaded. They never had issues with recruiting top talent. They have had problems getting the right coach to harness the talent of blue chip recruits.

He gets cooked by athletic wings like Lopez Perkings etc
He must absolutely maintain composures.

All 100% true. And the only solution the UAAP can think of is to add residency years for transferees 🙃🙃🙃

No love for Zamora or Romero? 🤣
The only one who stopped Konov, was Sabrina Inouescu.
It’s going to be a match up between guards and bigman with DLSU and UP being the favorites this season. Anlalaki ng mga players ng la salle😂😂😂
Malaki rin ang UP 😁 don't underestimate them - Gab
For the last two slots in this team, your guess is as good as mine.😂 😂
Hey Maui, reminder na nag-commit ka na mag-sando in a previous ep. Sumama ka na rin Sam. 😂 About DLSU beating PBA teams, to be fair naman they did not need a FSA.

"Sumama ka na rin Sam" hahahahaha love it. Sige pressure niyo pa si Sam mag sando! Once he does, I will never let it go until we die - Gab
And yes, that PBA height limit is crazy. The Japan B League has no such thing and it has promoted better competition there
The big mistake of Pablo was he moved to Up instead of joining Dlsu
KQ dapat mag pro na and Michael Phillips para mabigyan ng chance ibang players. Masyado na silang magaling sa league. Give chance to the younglings.
Hmm i think they will play their full 5 years, especially KQ. He recruited his friends, Baclaan and Cortez, to play with him so medyo kupal naman kung aalis siya hahahaha - Gab
I'am Agree With yOu sir. Espicially with ason amos Gosh@@bolerosph
If I'm the young Zamora, I'll backout for delicadeza sake. Esp after hearing this HAHA. And we all know he can't play.
hope they stop forcing Jcee at the 1... shaky handling lalo na pag end game.. he's a natural SG not pg
David is a better option at PG now, Rubico can have the future GAB..

Macalalag slips most of the time
Baclaan is not yet out of the woods. He still has a pending case with La Salle
Sobra lakas UP next season. Dami nalagas sa DLSU, especially Nelle. Sgro next, next season kaya na, pero next season i doubt it, la na rin si Poli. Who know or another epic fail of UP, nauna ksi bonfire bago ung prize.
Agree. UP is the team-to-beat in S87 without a doubt
That was said in 86. It’s too much talent that results in a failure
Russell ogana magpapakilala yan sa inyo
Pinili namin siya! 😁 We liked him
Proud Bulakenyo Russell Ogana. Ganda ng laro nya sa PinoyLiga, kailangan lang bigyan ng bigyan ng chance
He’ll be valuable
They forgot Kyle Perez
He hasn't played for DLSU the whole off season though. And no news of whether he will play
