unrelated, but i've been watching the filipino league here for the past week. unimpressed. i heard filipinos are the ballers of asia.
You give Filipinos, the height, athleticism of Americans and European athletes........Filipinos will be up there with the rest of the world. They are as skilled as any international team out there.
i've played with many filipinos and most of them have really high bbiq and are fantastic teammates. i just expected more from their local league (don't know what it was calked. watched in the local tv). perhaps i'll bring my shoes next time i go on a biz trip to the philippines again. so who is better the chinese or the filipinos?
from what i've seen, many filipinos do have height. i think athleticism is pretty much the same as european ballers. tho i've never played ball with europeans, since all which i know care more about soccer.
"People think you're playing in Italy and you're partying and going to fashion shows and just enjoying life" Well, this guy has never been in Milan or Rome it seems (and i'm pretty sure you can say the same for Madrid, Barcellona...) cause that's what happens there...i'm not sure why he make an example about Italy when he played in Sud America or countries like Sweden, Norway since they are pretty unique overall...even though yeah, it's more known about soccer players since in Italy (like in most countries in Europe) that's the main sport by far, so that's where the money, tv, girls etc are for most. But i'm pretty sure that players of Olimpia Milan and Real Madrid are more engaged in driving a Ferrari and partying than the players of the Utah Jazz.
