Efren played all the games well but in todays game he'd be a weakling jumping the ball and breaking from the box. In tough defensive battles he might prevail on any size pockets but he simply could not put packages together and jump out of trouble. In fact many top Filipinos have difficulty jumping the ball. The younger generation has picked up that skill though. Efren still played OP and Banks well enough to be a force amongst the top echelon but not the favorite to win out. Like the rest of the world Father Time always prevails.
