Gilas Pilipinas: Croatia, Greece, Argentina, Puerto Rico and We Need To Win This Time!

Wazzup Pilipinas!

We went home with a heavy heart after our Gilas Pilipinas lost again to another team. Sill fresh from their losses from the basketball teams of Croatia, Greece and Argentina, the additional lost to Puerto Rico made everyone miserably lonely that night after realizing the few remaining seconds were no longer sufficient to expect a win.

While dining a sumptuous chicken dinner at Max's Restaurant Scout Tuazon at Quezon City, we cheered and jumped for joy with every shot that went in, and for every miss the opponent makes, but I guess it was not meant to be for Gilas Pilipinas to finally earn a win. I guess we need more training as a team to make it against these other teams that all made the game a worthy match.

Gilas Pilipinas! Go go go!!! You may have lost again, but still our heart belongs to you. Though it is unfortunate that we won't make it to the FIBA finals, our #PusoToTheMax still beats for you. Our pride towards the Gila Pilipinas team still reigns supreme above everything. After all, we gave it all, and that is what is more important.

"Although we did not make it to the next round, we have nothing to be ashamed of. Challenge was accepted and the Basketball World has witnessed that we can compete against the best teams in this planet.

At this point, It no longer matters if we lose the game but what matters most is how we played the game. Good job, Gilas Pilipinas. You made us all proud." - Gerald German

There was no need for coach Chot Reyes to apologize to the Filipino people. The 1st to 3rd quarter of the game gets you confident, then your spirits get crushed by the 4th. But that's OK. We do believe you all did your best. There was the determination, there was the effort, there was the hope to win!

You all did your best! There will be other games to win! For us, you've won our hearts for a spectacular performance that every Filipino should uphold as the winning factor. For us you won! For us you are all winners!

Win the fifth game Gilas Pilipinas! It may not be enough to put you on the finals, but keep doing your best for us. We love you all!!!
