Somewhat random post.

Darian Townes is scheduled to try out for the Philippine national basketball team in the next week. Almost all basketball teams in Asia attempt to obtain the services of American-born basketball players to beef up their rosters for international competition. These players are not considered "imports" as they are "naturalized" as citizens in the countries where they are employed.

Previous ex-Hoya imports in the Philippine Basketball Association have included Wesley Wilson and Rheese Gibson.

I understand you're a neurosurgeon. No, I'm a barber, but a lot of people make that mistake.

I remember Wesley was putting up 30 and 20 in that league.

"The ball should move, bodies should move. You talk about being an undisciplined, unselfish group. That's what you do. If the ball's sticking, great defensive teams are going to load up. If you don't move the ball and [be] unselfish, it's gonna be long nights, so you better learn to move the ball, share, and play with a sense of urgency on every possession. Our teams will always be unselfish, our teams will always be physical, and our teams will always do our best to defend."
