                    [Summary] => The Taiwan press ignored the Philippines’ top scorer Asi Taulava in choosing the five best players to comprise the mythical first team at the end of the Jones Cup in Taipei last Sunday.


Picked were guard Terrance Johnson and forward Steffon Bradford of Passing Lane Sports, guard Saad Abdul Rahman Ali of Qatar, forward Pavel Ulyanko of Russia and center Tsun Wen Din of Taiwan.

If the choice for center came down to either Tsun or Taulava, there was no way the hometown boy wouldn’t get the nod. Tsun had the lock on the sympathy votes.

The Filipinos earned the respect of the boisterous Taiwanese crowd, almost erasing a 21-point third quarter deficit against the tall and shifty Americans to wind up their stint at 6-3 at the Taipei Physical Education College gym here.

That’s a cool half a million in greenbacks on the table for the boys.

I wonder if Ching will make a similar offer if the Philippines wins the Jones Cup which also ends today in Taipei.
