Andray Blatche to play for the Philippines National Team (Interview inside)..

[deja vu]

They should try to recruit Dwight. He would enjoy himself in the Phillipines.

Filipinos would actually encourage it. Imagine Dwight's half Filipino son dominating the midget locals.

where the f*ck is the 90% non filipino roster? I think they only got Andre to shore up the rebounds , anyway where still getting thrashed in Spain, but its still nice that where currently 2nd best in Asia and its a great learning experience. BTW we where actually supposed to recruit Javale Mcgee.

THIS!

whats wrong with having fil-ams . Greatest center is not purely American so what is the issue ? Racist comments eh? Hakeem olajuwon is not American . Tim Duncan is not American..

Embiid is not American
the list goes on

care to explain ?
