SINGAPORE – Less than a week after their regular monthly powwow, PBA officials are back in a meeting, continuing to explore the best way that they can help the best Gilas Pilipinas in its coming campaign in the 2013 FIBA Asia Championship on Aug. 1-11 at the MOA Arena.
PBA commissioner Chito Salud is again in a huddle with the PBA Board of Governors following his separate meeting with national coach Chot Reyes Tuesday.
The parameters on how to form the team have been laid down. Top concern now is the period of time the league will give the Nationals to prepare for the coming Asian meet where they pursue a ticket to the 2014 FIBA World Cup.
The league commissioner and the Board flew here to avoid distractions in their meeting.
“What is clear from the PBA standpoint is we are here to fully support the cause of Gilas Pilipinas and as a proof of that, we will come out with a third conference schedule that will certainly strengthen the chances of our national team,” said Salud.
“We are bending over backwards. We are meeting with the national team coach to see to it that his needs are met appropriately and from that standpoint we also want to be able to help the SBP and the MVP Group in successfully hosting this FIBA Asia,” Salud added.
Apparently, the consensus is for the PBA to altogether move the schedule of its season-ending Governors’ Cup after the Asian championship is done.
“Gusto na rin naman natin tumulong, eh di tumulong na ng lubusan,” said former league chair Lito Alvarez of Air21.
“I think that’s the best option for us,” offered newly-appointed Alaska team manager Dickie Bachmann.
“Kami kapag para sa bayan, laging okay. Kung yoon ang mas makakatulong, we’re for that,” said another former league chair Mamerto Mondragon.
Current chair Robert Non, however, stressed it has yet to be formally put on the table for discussion.
Salud said he doesn’t want to preempt the decision of team owners but admits he’s studying this option as they continue to explore things that could help the Nationals be at their best form possible in time for the regional World qualifier. (SB)
