The Roar of the Filipino Crowd

(No intention to imitate the title WWE NXT theme per se)

Since the 2014 FIBA World Cup was already over, might as well give my brief take on this one.

It’s not surprising that the Unites States reigned supreme once again at the tournament. What can we expect? These guys threw their opponents away by at least 20 points per game!

Perhaps there are more surprising events than that, which I can relay few: like France just pulled a huge upset over host country Spain.

Australia allegedly intends to lose their remaining contest in avoidance to face USA.  Yes, what the hell, right? These people did not send you to Spain to intentionally lose their games in the first place.

And perhaps the biggest surprise of the World Cup is the Philippines’ appearance—and the immeasurable crowd.

Oo, alam ko, natalo sila sa kanilang unang assignment sa FIBA World Cup, pero isa itong mensahe sa mundo ng mundo ng basketball: eto na naman ang Pilipinas!

Hindi biro ang 36 taon na sasalang ulit sa world basketball scene ang Pilipinas. Ilang pagbabago sa pulitka at palakasan at mga samu’t saring heartbeak sa mga competition at tune-up game ang ating sinukumra.
