I dont think Philippines will be on top
in Asia, the height is still not there

your also right but height is not really the factor there, its the passing and ball movement thay are not fluid doing the passing theres a lot of 1 on 1 plays than team play.

The Philippines can really dominate basketball in Asia. In fact, the Philippines was best in Asia until the Philippine Basketball Association, a professional basketball league similar to the NBA, was founded in 1975. Since then, the country's best basketball players were lured to play in the league instead of playing for the national team.
Given a good basketball program, the Philippines can regain its lost glory in Asian basketball supremacy.

yeah your right, they always want to earn money than to earn glory. They dony know that when you earn glory you can make big money. Philippines once become the best and just lost its glory this past few years.
