    Man I was thinking those are some dark skinned aborigine filipino players, but then I realized that was James Harden on the 3 pt shootout (grainy internet feed).

    those commentators were annoying...

    Only saw bits of the last 10 mins but it looked like everyone was having fun, especially the crowd.

    It was an embarrassing night for the "PBA All Stars". I had a nice laugh though :)

    Kidding aside, it was a great night for PH basketball :).

    We Filipinos hope that the PH team would at least give them a challenge tomorrow:p

    Watched the game in full. Kobe is still a dirty player even when not playing in the NBA, what's new? Durant was absolutely sick. Derrick Williams had some nice dunks. McGee was towering over everybody (that's a given). Chris Paul had this play where he dribbled the ball between the defender's legs. Overall, it was a really fun game and props to the NBA players for showing off highlights and such.

    Damn he was actually trying hard and playing defense against Kobe lol. In the end he made the guy look like a fool.

    the PH national team managed to stay close throughout the game. nba players won 98-89.

    this is a great experience for our national team.

    fun games. the national team played subpar. too many turnovers. the nba players are too long for them, they could easily poke the ball away from the ph players.

    lol'd at asi taulava guarding durant all the way to the three point line and saw taulava shoving a forearm into durant's midsection. kd was pissed. lol.

    and mcgee really is something. rockets should have gone after him when the guy was still a rookie.
