Starting Point Guard. The PG rotation is the weakest position of the Smart Gilas National Team.

Starting 5

C- Jamal Sampson - 6'11"
F- Japeth Aguilar - 6'9"
F- Rabeh Al-Hussaini - 6'6"
G- Dylan Ababou - 6'3"
G- Nate Robinson - 5'9"

This is an interesting scenario. If he is eligible to play for the RP team that will really bolster the chance to qualify for the olypmics. I didn't know though that Nate has a Filipino blood.

Silly ass Filipinos are always trying to get non Filipinos to play for them. I remember a couple years ago they were trying desperately to claim Colorado State center Ronnie Aguilar as Filipino just so they could have a 7 footer on their squad. Ronnie is my boy since HS we have always balled together and he is not even close to Filipino. He is Nicaraguan. Officials from the Phillipines told his parents to claim that he was at least 1/6th Filipino so that he could play for them but he did not do it. Its sad that these Filipinos have to try to get guys to lie about their heritage.
