Sino sa tingin nyo sa mga players ng UAAP ang may mga potential maging star sa PBA?

[dksboy]

Number 1 sure bet na magiging star sa PBA: si Parks. Actually siya lang **** ang sure ball dito, yung mga players tulad nina RR Garcia at Greg Slaughter, mahirap sabihin kasi ang dami ng "sure ball" superstars na naging bulok or normal lang sa PBA. Case in point:

1. Enrico Villanueva
2. Al Hussaini
3. Renren Ritualo
4. Maierhoffer

etc.

Lahat yan nag dominate sa UAAP pero pagdating sa PBA parang wala lang. Meron din tyong mga players na di naman ganon kagaling sa UAAP pero biglang humataw sa PBA tulad nina Cyrus Baguio at Sharma.

Bukod kay Parks, tingin ko may potential din sina Nuyles, Camson at Romeo since lahat sila athletic at me mga iso-moves.

Star sa PBA di ba, not just simply getting drafted? Here's my take:

1) FEU - Garcia, Escoto (si Ramos parang pang role player lang)
2) ADMU - Slaughter, Ravena (I think Salva will be the next JC Intal, not star-material but an effective role player)
3) Adu - Nuyles, Lozada
4) UST - Sorry wala akong nakikitang pang PBA Star-material (Teng siguro but he'll be undersized in the PBA for his position)
5) NU - Parks no doubt. Neypes and Khobuntin din siguro.
6) DLSU - Revilla, Torres (at this point, I don't see AVO being PBA Star-material)
7) UP - Silungan (taller than your average PBA Shooting Guard, has a quick trigger that is effective in the PBA)
8) UE - Hmm...Javier? But it's too early.

Slaughter, Ravena, Buenafe, Salva, Garcia, Nuyles!! Teng, definitely PARKS, Revilla

Marami pa silang bigas na kakainin bago nila maabot ang PBA (EXEMPTED DITO SINA SLAUGHTER AND PARKS )

tingin ko si monfort..
pede din sya mag artista.

seriously dude. have you watched rico's rookie year? have you seen rabeh's numbers? o baka yung off night lang nila yung napanood mo. hehe

[karahasan]

^Yeah, si Baclao masasabi mo pang star sa UAAP, bangko sa UAAP (then again, baka hindi lang siya fit doon sa style ni coach Ato). Pero si Al-Hussaini?

enrico "e-vill" villanueva dominated the game during his redbull years.
al hussaini and rico maierhoffer are still young isama mo na si jervy cruz
ritualo, on the other hand has been good as a shooter but never dominant like his uaap years

[theeng69]

If we will be basing it on the graduating players, here are my picks:

Ateneo-Long (if the PBA gives him an exemption to the rule). Monfort may not make it because of his size. But talent wise, he has the potential.

Adamson-Alvarez and Lozada. Alvarez won't be a starter because he's not a good defender and not a good play maker. But he can light up the three pointers easily. I see his role as a shooter from the bench in case the starters get cold in their shooting. Lozada will be a good role player as well.

FEU-Ramos. I believe he will be a good starting player in the PBA. He can shoot the ball, he can defend, he can block shots, and he's a good rebounder. But he should bulk up if he wants to defend big PBA forwards and centers. Baclao had a hard time in that aspect.

UST-Camus (if he's graduating). I see him as a Willie Wilson type of a player but more agile and has a better shooting touch. His energy and hustle play will be very wanted in the PBA. His versatility in defense will also give him an edge over other forwards.

NU-Nobody's graduating right?

La Salle-Graduating players?

UE-Zamar. He has a good shooting touch

UP-nobody

[theeng69]

If we're talking about the whole roster of each teams, here are my pick:

Ateneo-Long (defense), Kiefer (talent and IQ. I hope he grows taller), Slaughter (7 footer na hindi lampa *ehem EJ Feihl), Salva (versatility and athleticism)

AdU-Nuyles (athleticism and all around abilities), Alvarez (three point specialist), Camson (toughness and nice shooting touch. but he's undersized)

FEU-Garcia (ice cold mentality and scoring ability), Romeo (scoring talent), Tolomia (slashing and scoring ability), Ramos (defense, rebounding, shot blocking, and mid ranged shooting), Escoto (size, athleticism, and nice shooting touch)

UST-Fortuna (steady point guard and shooting), Teng (scoring talent), Camus (defensive versatility and hustle play)

NU-Parks (talent, size, athleticism, and scoring ability)

DLSU-Revilla (if he gets healty, a steady point guard), Torres (promising big man), Tampus (scoring talent, swagger, and athleticism)

UE-Zamar (shooting), Noble (shooting)

UP-Silungan (size and versatility at the guard position)

[shanebattier]

Adamson - Nuyles has a chance to be a star. Think Gary David with more athleticism. Alvarez will get a crack at it but merely as a 3 point specialist. His playmaking and defense doesn't quite measure up against other PBA point guards. Camson and Lozada could be excellent role players.

Ateneo - Slaughter for obvious reasons. He may have his limitations (a bit on the soft side), but as they say, you can't teach height, and his offensive arsenal and defense are already developing. Ravena needs to develop more of his playmaking skills, but the talent and basketball IQ are without question. Besides, he's only a rookie. Pencil him in as a shoo-in for the big leagues. Salva already has a PRO game, but he may be caught in that dreaded "tweener" stereotype. Too small to play power forward, a tad too slow to be a bonafide small forward. Will be a solid PRO, no doubt. Chua and Monfort have decent chances as well.

FEU - Ramos is a sure first rounder. His shooting touch for a big man is his biggest asset. He used to be a feared lock-down defender, but that part of his game seemed to have regressed a bit. Still a shoo-in to make the PROs. Garcia will have to play point guard once he enters the PBA, a position I'm confident he can play well. He just hasn't had the chance to prove it playing alongside Barocca and Romeo for the last couple of years. He also has a PRO swagger and demeanor for such a young guy. Escoto's development will be interesting to watch. An athletic, tall, long big man who will only get better with added experience and more playing time. Romeo, Tolomia and Exeminiano could be adequate back-ups if their game further develops.

La Salle - Torres has the most PRO potential among the lot. He's shown flashes of brilliance, especially when he decides to bang inside, defend, and not become a Dirk Nowitzki clone. I'm curious to see how he develops. I'm not too sold on Van Opstal just yet. He has the height, the built, but not much of anything else at this point. Let me put it this way, I kinda knew Rico Maierhoffer was gonna be special right off the bat watching him in his rookie year. I'm not getting the same vibe with AVO. Dela Paz, Tampus, and Revilla (depending on his health) also have PRO potential, but merely as role players.

UST - I actually think the player with the most potential to do well in the PBA is Chris Camus. His energy and motor will definitely catch the eye of PRO scouts. His rebounding and defense, plus his improved outside shot, make him a valuable commodity. Plus he's tall for a small forward, the positio I think he should play in the next level. Kevin Ferrer has a lot of growing up to do, but you can't deny his potential. A 6'4 shooter with athleticism to boot, Ferrer is potentially a walking mismatch. It's up to him if he can fulfill his undeniable promise as a player. The two Jerics, Teng and Fortuna, may get drafted and flourish as back-ups. Nothing more.

UE - Chris Javier is a rookie not many may know about. He didn't show much in his freshman campaign, but he may be UE's star of the future. If he develops nicely as an athletic big man, he could make the league..in 5 or 6 years time. JM Noble and Paul Zamar are the only other Warriors I see who could crack the PROs, but stardom may be asking too much.

UP - Mike Silungan..barely. His overall game has definitely improved, but his most valuable asset and probable ticket to the big leagues - his shooting - has gone way south. If he discovers his touch in the next few years, who knows?

NU - Bobby Ray Parks may be a PBA 1st overall pick in the near future. His talent is undeniable. He may have gotten some flak for trying to do too much, forcing shots, and not leading his team to the final 4 as expected, but Rayray is a cut above the rest in terms of talent and PRO potential. And lest everyone forgets, he's still a teenager. Scary. Kyle Neypes is like AVO in a way. You look at the guy and you know he's a baller. You watch him in warmups and he dazzles you with an array of dunks. Lean, long and athletic-- a pro scout's dream. But you see him on the court, during an actual game, and you leave underwhelmed. Let's see how he develops as well. Khobuntin and Alolina --hmmm, maybe.

are watching the PBA or what? Rabeh and Rico parang wala lang? actually sila yung last 2 ROY's at nainjury lang.

seriously dude. have you watched rico's rookie year? have you seen rabeh's numbers? o baka yung off night lang nila yung napanood mo. hehe

They aren't exactly what I would call franchise material. Di ko naman sinasabing bano sila pero di ko sila makita na heart ng isang championship team in the PBA. They look average to above average players to me.

Para dun sa poster about E-Vill, masyado syang tamad para i-sustain yung production nya. Ok si Enrico nung first few years nya pero parang naging complacent sya kaagad. With his talent and exp. he should have been the Benjie Paras of this generation, instead he got outplayed by SHarma.

[heavyy_gear_XV]

I don't know about what you guys are saying, but the current players of the DLSU Green Archers are all potential stars in the PBA.
