hoops sub cult

After playing pick-up hoops back in the day, my friends and I used to talk about this topic a lot - who among NBA ballers would pass for a Pinoy just by the sound of the name? So here's my updated version with today's current NBA rosters...

• Brook & Robin Lopez [could be designer Rusty Lopez's long lost cousins]

• DJ Augustine[He just added the U after A and added E at the end, you know]
• Carlos Arroyo [He's probably related to the ex-first gentleman]
• Nazr Mohammed [Almost every Muslim in the Pines, especially in Mindanao is named that way]
• Ming Yao [You guessed it... may have roots in Binondo]
• David Lee & Courtney Lee [May be long lost relatives of Scriptwriter Ricky Lee]
• Charlie Villanueva [Pinoy yan- puma-pluck ng kilay ampotah eh]
  

• Carlos Delfino
• Rudy Fernandez [Can we call him DABOY?]

• Gilbert Arenas
• Kevin, Kenyon and Cartier Martin [long lost relatives of Carmi]
• Nick & Sam Young [probably related to Spin-a-win girl Jeanne Young]
• Jose Calderon
• Ryan Gomes [is actually a Gomez - just changed Z to S]
• OJ Mayo
• Greivis Vasquez [who?]
• Francisco Garcia
• Brandon Roy [probably a distant cousin of singer Karl Roy]

and last but not the least, the most pinoy of em all, nickname na nickname palang...

• NENE

So let's get all of em for the national team!

Now it's time to start my list for football. And boy do I have lots of names, like for example, Christiano Ronaldo.
