1. yeah i see those games on tv sometimes. but actually one of my moms friends son, got contacted by one of the pba teams for him to play (he's filipino too). and he's going to be going there this summer. so i say, prepare and get better endure and things like that. and make it on the team h.s, make an impact in watever postion you are in. maybe you could like send them a video of your playing in a game.cause i tihnk they knew someone like on the in you know so, maybe you could try contacting them. im sure they would want a player from the usa, a filipino american haha, you know diversity haha.
2. Why do you wanna play in the PBA? Why not target CBA or NBA? If you play good basketball then you can make it to your highschool varsity team. And if you make it, you'll have an advantage over the other Fil-Ams. I played in the NCAA in the Philippines but never thinked of entering the PBA. I've got lots of friends too that now plays in the PBA. You must be discovered by scouts, managers or the coach himself (and they must be impressed) before you can land on a spot on their team.
3. Basically if you want to make it to the PBA you just go to the Philippines and tryout. They are probably not that good anyway.
