He may not be a natural filipino in nature yet his unyielding sacrifice and contribution for Gilas Pilipinas is more than enough for him to be loved by Filipinos.
Blatche is 28 years old and had been naturalized to help make the Philippine Basketball Team Gilas more competitive for FIBA World Cup.
His move had been very remarkable when he faced the ring and dribbled twice before pulling up for a jumper over Croatia defender Ante Tomic. His impressive timely three-pointers, aggressive attacks and most unselfish kick-outs to his shooters on the wing definitely shows how he team-up with the Philippine Team, not to mention all other moves he made during the competition with Greece. It is very undeniable that Blatche won the hearts of many in just a short amount of time, even when he was question specially in the aspect of trust thinking that he wouldn't make it for the Philippine Team.
