“I want to coach young people in high school. I want to share my experience with them. It would be great to help them, and see them play for the PBA (Philippine Basketball Association) someday,” says James in “Tapatan Ni Tunying” airing this Thursday (July 3).

Is settling down with his Italian girlfriend, Michela Cazola, also a reason for his retirement plan?

“Marriage is just there. We just have to take it slow and wait for the right time,” he says.

He also opens up about his improving relationship with former wife Kris Aquino and son Bimby, and talks about his older child with a former girlfriend for the first time.

“Actually, I want to thank my ex-girlfriend because no matter the issue I faced, she remained quiet and never spoke ill of me,” he says.

    after six years pa pala bat kailangan sabihin na ngaun? dami p pwede mangyari in years years

  2. Why lambast a man who chooses to retire. Remember you will be judged by the way you judge others. Why not look for James best side. He is a great sportsman.
