00:00 After one season or half a season, we should be able to see
00:04 that there are better players or maybe those who will face us like Kiefer.
00:10 If the Phil-Foreigners can fill the exodus to the overseas leagues, KBL, Japan, Taiwan.
00:25 There are diamonds in the rough, or not necessarily in the rough because they are already out of their leagues.
00:32 We will know if they can adapt their play here in the PBA when they play in the PBA.
00:39 I feel like there are some who will stand out.
00:43 I should have expected Stephen Holt as the number one overall pick who has gone through a lot of G-League.
00:50 Aside from Stephen Holt, I expect others to shine, to find their footing in the PBA eventually.
00:57 Not necessarily the first few games, but I feel like after one season or half a season,
01:03 we should be able to see that there are better players or maybe those who will face us like Kiefer.
01:11 Our amateur standouts, our college standouts who chose to play abroad right away.
01:17 I feel like there are some who will surprise us.
01:20 Just sit back and relax.
01:21 Let's watch them and we'll see how the PBA will act.
01:27 Is this the start of more changes in the PBA?
01:30 We will find out if this has a positive effect in the future.
