ICYMI: A total of 42 championships with tons of coaching experience in international basketball.
Gilas Pilipinas head coach Chot Reyes and Ginebra coach Tim Cone
An upcoming coach in the pros back then, Cone hired as one of his early assistants a young tactician named Chot Reyes, his former rival in inter-Village basketball tournaments in Dasmarinas, Makati.In 1993, Reyes earned his first head coaching job at Purefoods and had, since then, forged some kind of friendly rivalry with Cone, culminating in half a dozen title clashes with their head-to-head at 3-3.
Six years removed from coaching in the PBA, Uichico spent the past few years working as head of the Basketball Coaches Commission of the Samahang Basketball ng Pilipinas. Now Uichico has come full circle in serving the national team – as a player, an assistant and as head coach. “What I try to do is to make sure the players are fundamentally sound and take a look at what the fundamental details they’re doing. So my contribution is probably more on the defensive side. I pride myself in our own defense at Ginebra through the years.”
Cone describes Reyes as the master of the dribble drive, but considers Uichico as probably the best scout in their group.
