Can GILAS 3.0 make it to Rio?
By Bong Paredes:
Gilas Pilipinas just wrapped up their week long camp in Cebu and with the 2015 FIBA Asia Championship just right around the corner, it’s the perfect time to be an armchair analyst and speculate about this team’s chances of bagging the lone Asian ticket to the Rio Olympics.
There were questions early on if the SBP can form a competitive team due to players on the initial wish list of Coach Tab begging off for various reasons. Fast forward to today and it looks like all those players begging off turned out to be a blessing in disguise because this can be the best iteration of Gilas to date.
