    You're over thinking it, lol I doubt T-Jones isn't making the team... The photo they picked just had him and another guy on the right (who I can't seem to name) out

    1.) Puerto Galera

    Hope the players aren't riding around in that jeepney, look how worn the tire is. Wouldn't want any of our players getting hurt.

    The Pacers may be impressed by these beaches, but the Rockets won't be. Houston has its own beach not close by in Galveston:

    Two beaches? That's all you got? Just kidding. LOL! ;)

    Seriously, beaches are one of the things we can be proud of.

    To add to the list...

    Palawan
    Bohol
    Caramoan
    Calaguas
    Siargao

    ...and a lot more.

    There was also a nice feature on the Rockets and Pacers on GMA channel 7 tonight. I'll try to locate it on youtube.

    JLin described the Pinoy fans they've met in the mall as basketball-savvy, respectful (there's that word), polite and courteous. Even his parents and brothers (seems like they also made the trip) were impressed by how courteous the fans they've met so far.

    Chandler also said the cab driver last night knew all the Rocketrs players 1 to 15 (aren't there 17 of you, CP?). The interviewer asked, "You took a cab and survived?" (half-jokingly). CP (something like): "Yeah, we gave the security guys fits ..."

    The players feel safe walking around, the report said. No one will touch them. They're basketball royalty here.

    I'm interested in Morey interviews, but so far he hasn't made an appearance.
