UE gives old coach rude UAAP welcome
07/11/2009 | 08:24 PM

MANILA, Philippines – University of the East Coach Lawrence Chongson described their 65-46 blowout victory over De La Salle University on Saturday as “inspiring and motivating."

But Chongson does not want to dwell on the win at the Big Dome that saw the Warriors limiting the Green Archers to its lowest output since La Salle’s 70-52 loss to Far Eastern University on Aug. 14, 2004.

“A win does not make a tournament," said Chongson, who won his maiden game in the UAAP at the expense former UE mentor Dindo Pumaren, who now serves as an assistant to his brother and La Salle head coach Franz.

Chongson, however, revealed that he consciously tried to isolate the team from anything regarding the death of former University of the East’s long-time representative to the UAAP board Rolando “Brenn" Perez, who passed away Friday night after suffering from a heart attack.

“I apologize," said Chongson. “There was so much at stake. It was our first game and against DLSU at that."

Chongson’s decision to isolate his players regarding Perez’ death served the squad well as the Warriors were ahead all throughout the match and even turned a 43-35 lead at the start of the fourth period to a 63-41 advantage in the last three minutes.

“I really don’t know what happened to La Salle. We merely played our game and I’m even surprised about the outcome,’ said Chongson regarding one of the much favored teams in the tournament.

“But they brought out the best in us," Chongson added.

“It (the win) is inspiring and motivating but we will not dwell on it because we have more battles to win," Chongson added. – Perry Legaspi, GMANews.TV

Feel there was no fire in La Salle's game. Feel they were just going through the motion. UE deserves to win. They were more motivated to win. They were a better team. No excuses this time. Congratulations to UE.

UE won over DLSU also by a blowout in the pre-season.
I think that is already an indication of how well-prepared the Warriors are.

Ang defending champion Ateneo naman ang ating makakaharap sa darating na Huebes, hari nawa'y magkita-kita pa rin tayong lahat sa laban.

Natuwa naman ako na nakita ko sa ating panig sina Sir Armada na sa registrar natin at si Sir Roger Espiritu na naging kaklase ko nung college sa CAS.

^ Pare congrats, although hindi kataka-taka yung panalo niyo.

I find it surprising to see Garrick Ayala's name in the line up. A former Red Cub, the kid has the height and the heft to mix it up at this level, but not the skills. Not yet. He wasn't even a dominant player at the NCAA Jrs last season and I doubt if the intervening period was enough to hone up his skills.

Kung mababangko lang siya, mabuti pa magpahinog na lang siya sa Team B, in the same manner Paul Lee improved himself and was an instant part of the core when he was elevated in the line up in his second year in college.

All the while I was hoping for Ryan Monteclaro, a PG and a Red Cub too, to be included in the line up after the injury to Martinez.

Ewan ko anong kamote ang nakain ng coaching staff at inaakala nilang they have enough point guards to make things happen for them.

IMO, Ayala did ok in his debut as a warrior. nagkasunod-sunod nga lang ang fouls, pero at least he wasn't the headless chicken on the court, but the rookies of the green and white squad were...

The Warriors need to improve their Freethrow shooting.. The gap could've been bigger if they were not going 1 out of 2 most of the time from the stripe. They were dependable on the FT line when they were Dindo. This is something Cocach Chongson should look into..
