Gilas not likely to naturalize guards like Lakers’ Clarkson, says Baldwin
Despite Fil-Am Los Angeles Lakers guard Jordan Clarkson expressing interest
in playing for the national team, head coach Tab Baldwin admitted Gilas
Pilipinas is not likely to naturalize guards in the near future, stating that
big men are still the priority.
尽管湖人菜鸟后卫Jordan Clarkson有兴趣替菲律宾国家队出赛,
但他们不太可能在不久的将来归化后卫,反之他们需要的是内线大个。
“The difficult thing for Jordan is traditionally the Philippines needs a big
man in a naturalized role,” he said Sunday, March 22 following Talk ’N Text
’s twice-to-beat clinching win over Alaska in the 2015 PBA Commissioner’s
Cup.
“If there ever came a time that we needed a guard, it’s great to know that
Jordan is available. He’s easy to naturalize.”
对此,菲律宾国家队总教练Tab Baldwin表示...
“这件事对Jordan(Clarkson)是比较难的,从菲律宾的传统看来是需要一名大个子,
如果真的到了我们需要后卫的时候,Clarkson可以加入那会非常棒,
归化他是很简单的事。”
