James Yap flashing me a smile. He looked even more handsome now, as he was a couple of years ago. James though, only managed to score 7 points in the entire ballgame. But even that won’t prevent Caviteña girls to giggle at the sight of him. Nope, I wasn’t very kilig. Mahinhin ako! Nye!
I actually asked James for a few more mug shots so I would know what angle he's really gwapo at. Hehe! Joke! I took this snap because I was smitten by his great profile. Watch out for Eric Menk in the background.
My good friend Virginia took this shot. I was too shy to ask Noy for a picture because he looked very serious in person. But nonetheless, Golden Boy still looks as glowing as ever!
Cap Alvin, despite his two-year absence in the PBA as a player still proves to be one of the most popular and charismatic basketball personalities in the Philippines today. (Right Cap, you’re doing a great job as team manager. We love you!)
See that girl in yellow flashing a BIG, BIG smile? That’s my good friend Ces. Right, best, headline ka sa blog ko bukas!)
Does that girl in the upper left corner looked familiar to you? Then look again! Yeah, that’s Kath!
Anyway, Cap was really very approachable. This one is Boss Alvin’s one-millionth shot taken during the entire afternoon! (Bait ni Cap!)
This is the man, Marc Pingris.
The venue was pretty hot so Marc sat just beside a mini industrial fan (not shown in the picture.) See that tattoo in his shoulder? That explains how “tiger-ish” he is on the court.
Rich loves the floor! Repeat, Rich loves the floor!
Mr. Yee has had his hands full against Ginebra biggies. In fact, he was very aggressive defensively in the entire game. So aggressive that he fouled out. (Cute mong graduate, Rich!)
Kid Lightning in the house!!
Looks like the camera loves Mr. Paulee! By the way, he nailed a turnaround jumper during the game. Looks like he’s extremely working on it. (Shoot that ball Paulee, shoot that ball!)
Captain KR, yes that’s how he should be called!
Kerby was the only Giant who were able to score in double digits with 10 points. He kept the Giants head above water by playing a great third quarter. He’s also the first red shirt to score for Purefoods. (Way to go, Kid!)
In 2001, Roger Yap was simply the Shark Team’s King Predator. Now he has evolved into a very reliable court general for the Giants.
This picture was taken right before the game started. The man beside him was Jondan Salvador. After a few poses, Roger went to the court and started practicing his jump shot. Swoosh. Swoosh.
Now, here comes the former Montaña King Jewel JD Salvador.
Coach Ryan opted not to let JD play in this particular game, perhaps it will remain that way for the rest of the preaseason games to allow him to preserve his energy for the real battle in October. We shouldn’t really worry about his conditioning because he looks pretty fit to me.
And more pictures...
Okay ba, peeps? Pogi ba?
Oks ba tayo diyan?
Uy, andiyan ka pala!
Kami ang Hagibis!
Pre, sana wag ako ma cut!!
