NICE SHORTS!: Sitting in a slummy Manila neighborhood enjoying a (kinda) cold one when I see this kid.
Yeah, there are plenty of Lakers jerseys in the world. But I'll take quality of quantity 9 times out of 10.
The Philippines are crazy for B-ball. Draft international!

Things are good; thanks for asking Prez.
Got no work, but neither does anyone else, so I’m not so surprised.

Yeah, not surprising at all....but anyway

How long you expecting to be over there for?

At least another two years.
We took a trip to Tokyo recently and totally loved it. Hopefully we’ll get to do that again … or maybe a future move. Problem is it is SUPER spendy. Everything costs NY prices or more. Crazy.

My friend and I once spent $30 each on shrimp tempura in Tokyo

We just ordered and didn’t realize it until the check came

I remember when I was there seeing a basketball hoop set up in the middle of a sugar cane field...

and the court was mud. They are HARDCORE ballers!

I didn't mean to turn you on

Yeah Filipinos are huge basketball lovers.

When I play pickups games here in LA they are the majority of who I play, and they’re pretty good too.

draft international?

draft tranny!

It may look silly to you, but when it comes to hoops, no one in that country is messing around

Pinoy basketball!

Manilla ball is pretty competitive. Did you get a chance to play in any gyms?

Gotta love the Blazer rep since everyone there is a Laker fan it seems… retch

One of my soon to be inlaws built a half court on his roof. I was surprised by how into basketball they all were.

Curious

How tall was that kid approx. – nothing nearby to gage that….

um ... 5'4" to 5'6" or so.

A little short for our team.
On the other hand, I’m all of 5’8"ish and the Draft Express profile in my head has me as a “banging” Power Forward with a swirling, lopsided upside.
