Yeng Guiao backs Tim Cone, stresses team cohesion

Former national coach Yeng Guiao believes in the importance of supporting current Gilas Pilipinas head coach Tim Cone.

Guiao highlighted Cone's successful track record and his coaching style that emphasizes playing with speed and a small roster.

He stressed the need for continued team cohesion to develop basketball IQ and compete effectively against strong opponents like Australia and New Zealand.

Despite recent losses, Guiao expressed optimism about Gilas' potential to improve by consistently facing tough competition.

Injuries impacted Gilas' performance during the FIBA Asia Cup in Jeddah, according to Guiao, who noted that having key players such as Kai Sotto could have made a difference.
