Yup, Abbarientos has retired ...... his number was officially retired by ALASKA during their 25th anniversary celebration late 2010.

He would have made a farewell stint with ALASKA, but Trillo only offered him a single conference contract plus Tim Cone did not guarantee minutes for him ...... he ultimately chose to remain as an assistant coach with GINEBRA (assistant coaching stints with SMC are valuable slots .... some have been known to scheme & backstab for those slots).

Abbarientos is clearly the best ever PG to play in the PBA ..... of course, if criteria was solely on overall impact; then hands down it's Robert Jaworski.

I think Abbarientos & Caidic are the only local players who would have made an NBA roster & can actually be part of the rotation (subs) ..... a prime Abbarientos can outplay a few starting NBA PG's then & easily outplay most of the 2nd string PG's.

Look closely and his game was very, very similar to then PG Terrell Brandon.

"Abbarientos is clearly the best ever PG to play in the PBA"

Agree with this one, kahit sila hec calma, ricky brown, r. distrito and the likes johnny "A" is clearly above the rest.

Sayang di ko napanood brader, sana ireplay uli...

Kayang kaya pa talaga nya, kinakapos na lang talaga sa hangin e. I can still remember ng game ng Ginkings vs. TnT, all-filipino ata yun, crucial dying seconds na din ata nun, bola ng TnT, 1on1 sila ni Castro sa 3pt left wing, nung mag aattemp na si Castro ng 3pts, e parang candy lang yung kinuha nya, very crucial yun kasi pwedeng mafoul nya si Castro while attempting a 3pt shot...wow ang linis ng steal! Defensive pg din sya, kung agawan nga nya ng bola mga bigmen ng mga teams noon lalo na si Marlou after a rebound biglang lulusot sa blind side, yun pagkurap wala na yung bola, sabay fade away pa over Marlou's stretched arms!

IIRC, may fine yata ang mga players na hindi sisipot sa all-stars. Mark Caguioa was fined a few years back when he did not show up in an event. i just can't recall if it was an all-stars game.

pagod nga si japeth....mahirap din kasi maupo on the edge of your seat while waiting for you to be fielded in.

ayaw ni chot reyes na makipagsapalaran. he was really gunning for a last championship with TnT before going to Gilas(?). kung si black ang papalit sa kanya sa TnT, then Japeth may see more playing time. kaya lang dami niya talagang kaagaw sa position niya sa TnT

last fiba hindi si chot ung coach pero wala pa din syang playing time
the coach last time was the smart gilas coach but seems he was unable to see any gilas with japet hehehe
hopefully japet will overcome this and be mature and have his oppurtunity

"bata" pa kasi maglaro si Japeth. walang gulang. pero basketball smarts come with experience. di niya matututunan yung gulang kung di siya paglalaruin.

TnT just with too good many forwards ...... Ranidel, Williams, Carey & Peek (plays center also) are expected to play the most minutes.

Plus, Dillinger is having his best year so far ...... for now, sa dulo talaga nang bench ang bagsak ni Japeth - moreso if it's an import-laced conference.

Doesn't help that Japeth's game is still limited - doesn't have a back-to-the-basket game and just prefers to run when the fastbreak is available.

In some ways, the GILAS stint had stalled Japeth's development ..... he spent 2 years at the GILAS bench, mostly because of his limited game and management opting to get PBA players - which wasn't in GILAS' original plan to begin with.

Ot.. I'm not a TNT fan, but I think Dilinger is one of the most talented player in the PBA right now, parang Ginobili..

and sa defense maasahan mo lalo na sa mga hussle play
he always run for the ball even if it is outside na like dennis rodman

Norman Black's style is he likes to build his team BIG. He always wants his team to dominate and control the boards.
A low post player for high percentage shots together with a work horse of a power forward that will give the team hassle off the boards and a tough defender ala Alvin Teng or Nonoy Baclao.
Aside from Kelly Williams (hassler & defender), i dont see any of TNT's Big men that can blend with Black's style since Chot had already patterned TNT's game to the international style which doesnt have a low post game.

That's why Black's appointment as Chot's replacement was a small WTF for me ...... Black has traditionally coached old-school - which is near the opposite of what has been successful for TnT this past few years e.g. dribble-drive offense.

In an AKTV interview a few months ago, Black claims to be flexible enough to change his offensive patterns ..... I have doubts on his claims.

His stints with POP-COLA & SANTA LUCIA showed little changes from his SMB days ...... his ATENEO stints also had the same slowdown, deliberate half-court offense.

Still, TnT's lineup (assuming GILAS wont coincide much with the PBA sked) will always guarantee a quarterfinals slot, at the very least ..... regardless of who is coaching.

Good observation. Black will always look for his Big men to score. Same style during his Magnolia and SMC days when hel played center and had Noli Banate and Alvin Teng do the garbage cleaning and dirty jobs. Basketball has changed over the years. Seldom do we see post up plays in the PBA nowadays puros face basket frontal attack and 3 point shooting na just the way Ranidel de Ocampo is playing.
TNT will still make it to the semis but Black will find it difficult to implement his style with TNTs current roster unless he changes his style and just adapt to how the team is playing.
