He might. But not in time to play in September. I just talked to my Filipino friend who is close to the team. Thats also what he said. It will not happen in time

Most probably he will never play for the Philippines, FIBA considers him "naturalized player" and since they can have only 1 per tournament they probably want to use that chance in center position with someone like Blatche.

at the Asian games they had another black American player in Marcus Douthit. even though they played well against Iran and Korea (lost narrowly to both finalists) still they lost to Qatar and China and finished 7th !!! they live and die on 3-pointers which makes them unpredictable.

btw today in Iran they had the first training session with Bauermann, 25 out of 28 players showed up. after a week of training in Tehran they will go to China for a preparation tournament.

again wrong buddy. Sorry. I have looked at his face. Im even a lakers fan, I know his story, dont worry. The problem with Clarkson is that he only has an american passport. He never applied for the Filipino one. And the rule is that he should have done it before turning 16 to be able to play as a local. They are however trying to make it possible but its doubtful that it will work out that quick if it works out ever.

it will happen. I am a laker fan too. Everybody here knows that! The fact that he has filipino blood AND he has never played for team usa, he will eventually get it.

its jordan clarkson OR blatche..as I said. and they did not have blatche but another naturalized player. Do you even read what I write?

yes i did read what you wrote. This is your mistake: clarkson is not a naturalized player! He is half philipino. Havent you looked at his face?! The guy is a dark asian. Its like fereydoon zandi. No disrespect buddy but it seems like you are the one not paying attention!! 
