An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

As expected, naglabasan na naman mga papansin ng NBA that want to avenge their World Cup flameout led by the numero una pampam in LeBron James. Kung sumali na lang kaya kayo in the first place? 😆

olympics talaga ang importante kasi sa kanila. well it is what it is. well okay din lang naman since at least deutschland got the trophy, good on them, sayang hindi naabutan ni Dirk as a player. euroball is catching up na talaga. kailan kaya magiimprove ang pinoy ball hays

Dirk had no legit shot of going the distance sa WC back in the day. His roster is easily one of the worst supporting casts in history. Wala man lang fringe NBA player.

Kaman did join when Dirk was 30 and they made the Olympics for the first time, but they only got to play together again three years later when Kaman was already crap.

The hubris is kind of disrespectful. Ano ba yung reason bakit di sila sumali before?

[–] decadentrebel 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm guessing fatigue from the NBA playoffs? But the Summer Olympics takes place much earlier (July) than the World Cup (August). Not to mention na mga kapwa tanderbirds pa hahatakin niya when they would all be a year older then.

If the reason is they don't care about FIBA, then what's the point of "avenging" the loss? What was the point of the Redeem Team? Or this incoming Redeem Team 2.0?
