PHNOM PENH, Cambodia – Gilas Pilipinas head coach Chot Reyes doubled down on his criticism of what he feels are inappropriate playing conditions in the 5-on-5 basketball competitions of the Southeast Asian Games here.
Gilas Pilipinas needs to take extra measures to keep its players hydrated as they deal with uncomfortable heat due to the absence of air-conditioning at the Elephant Hall. “International competitions of this caliber should be played at air-conditioned gyms because we all know moisture and the perspiration of players, the heat, make the floor very, very slippery,” said Reyes.Reyes added the fact that other teams are also affected does not make it any less of a problem.
