Without a doubt, the Gilas Pilipinas National Men’s Basketball program just got a shot in the arm after two major developments over the past week were made public – the hosting of the SEABA tournament in Manila in April, which is the qualifier for the FIBA Asia Continental Cup later this year, and the naming of the 26-man Gilas pool through the collaboration of the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) and Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). I believe this is the best start for any Gilas program considering that the best available talents were included in the pool this early aside from getting a fresh three-year plan that’s aimed at the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup and 2020 Olympics.
