Barangay Ginebra

[Ozymandias]

Hopefully si Jeffrey Cariaso na yung long term head coach nila, mukhang di na rin kaya ni Jaworski mag coach kasi nasa edad na sya. Yan ang mahirap sa SMC teams, puro shuffle lang ng coaches.

Good thing din na may american trainer na para kay Greg Slaughter at dun sa ibang big men.

Jeffrey “The Jet” Cariaso has officially been named as the new head coach of Barangay Ginebra San Miguel, Slam Philippines reported, Tuesday, in advance of an exclusive interview with the 15-year PBA alum.

Cariaso would take over from Ato Agustin. It was not immediately clear who would make up Cariaso’s staff.

Currently an assistant coach with the San Mig Coffee Mixers, who are in the semifinals of the 2014 Commissioner’s Cup, it is still unsure if Cariaso will immediately take over, or only after his the Mixers win the title or get eliminated from the conference.

Best known for his stint as a player with the Alaska Milkmen, taking on Ginebra will be Cariaso’s first head coaching job.

Barangay Ginebra in recent conferences has been known for their inability to turn talented rosters into consistent winners. Most recently, the team barely cracked the quarterfinals of the Commissioner’s Cup, finishing with a 3-6 card. They were then dispatched by the undefeated Talk ’N Text Tropang Texters in the first round.

San Miguel Beer and Ginebra coaching changes in the past two years

The San Miguel Beermen and Barangay Ginebra San Miguel Kings have been trying to find the winning formula. The SMB franchise has not won a PBA championship since they hoisted the 2011 Governors' Cup trophy. Ginebra on the other hand has not won a championship in six long years. A lot has happened in the past six conferences, specially in coaching, for the two teams and a lot more is bound to happen after they fell short again. This slideshow tracks the coaching changes done by the two teams.

In his rookie conference in the PBA, Ato Agustin led the Petron Blaze Boosters to the 2011 PBA Governors' Cup title. But after an underwhelming campaign in 2012, he fell out of favor.

The Boosters initially wanted former Gilas-Pilipinas head coach Rajko Toroman to handle the team but because of the rules barring foreigners from becoming new PBA head coaches, the franchise elevated Olsen Racela as head coach while hiring Toroman as team consultant. The Boosters essentially had two head coaches at one time.

The Rajko Toroman experiment did not last long for the Boosters as the team's veterans rejected his methods. In the end, the franchise took him out of the team and handed the reins completely to Racela. In a completely unrelated move, Toroman later found himself as a team consultant with Barako Bull.

Racela looked like he was on his way to helping the Boosters make it to the Finals and possibly win a title in the 2013 PBA Commissioner's Cup but it all fell apart after Renaldo Balkman choked Arwind Santos. Gee Abanilla was named the new head coach with Racela moving to the San Mig Super Coffee Mixers as an assistant coach.

Abanilla fell painfully short of a title in the 2013 PBA Governors' Cup as his Boosters lost in a seven game series against the Mixers in the finals. After struggling in the 2014 Philippine Cup, Abanilla was replaced with Biboy Ravanes while Todd Purves was given a more active role in the bench, which means he is basically the head coach but it is against the rules to call him that. As of the moment, it seems like the two will be holding on to their spots even after an early exit for the Beermen.

For Ginebra, Siot Tanquingcen was the head coach of the Kings up until the 2013 Philippine Cup but he had a cloud hanging over him the the name of Alfrancis Chua who stood as team consultant.

Alfrancis Chua was elevated to head coach from team consultant and Siot Tanquingcen was demoted to assistant heading into the 2013 Commissioner's Cup. After struggling with import Herbert Hill, Chua found gold in Vernon Macklin who carried them to a stint at the finals. Although it seemed like Ginebra finally got the perfect mix, the situation did not last long.

Things got really weird really fast for Ginebra as Chua resigned from his spot as head coach claiming there were people meddling with the the decision-making in Ginebra. This resulted to the transfer of a basketball official in the SMC group to another arm and the hiring of Ato Agustin as interim head coach. Chua returned to the team this time as a manager.

After being upgraded into a full time head coach instead of an interim one, Ato Agustin operated in the 2014 Philippine Cup with a former head coach beside him as team manager. Together they carried Ginebra to the top spot in the eliminations. However, this was not enough for the mangement as they shook things up again. Agustin retained the title of head coach but assistant coach Juno Sauler did the head coaching duties during games.

Immediately after the end of their Commissioner's Cup campaign, news broke out that Ginebra officials are already talking to current San Mig Super Coffee assistant coach Jeffrey Cariaso to be their next head coach. Will The Jet be the Kings' new coach? More importantly, will he end Ginebra's title drought? Only time will tell.

kulit ng ginebra management, sinabi na nga ni MC47 na maski si phil jackstone ang ilagay dyan na coach eh hindi mag champion hanggang may mga banong players ang ginebra na tulad niya lol...

[jamesbond]

Well, as we fans would have it, let's give it a try.. So why not, we have already lost so many games and losing another one will not hurt us anymore, wala ng sasakit at manhid na tayo sa talo hahaha...

[Ozymandias]

Good start so far for Ginebra, kahit ilang weeks pa lang nilang coach si The Jet. On Sunday magkaka alaman ulit kung kaya ng Ginebra against the defending champ SMC.

I think ginebra are doing just ok, nanalo,natatalo
Pero matindi talaga depensa nila ngayon,hassle, talagang habol sa bola, pero minsan lumalabas yung sabi ngang tambay pogi pag lamang na, muntik pa sila matalo kanina..
Maganda pagkuha nila sa import, di na sila masyado namumublema sa rebound..
Sana tuloy-tuloy na..

[jamesbond]
