I was welcomed very nicely into the new family and the coaching staff. I cannot expect or I cannot be happier for a better welcome than I have got,&quot; he said during his Media Day appearance last week. </p><p>The duo, together with 2024 Rookie Draft 10th overall pick Mark Nonoy, was a part of the TerraFirma-Ginebra trade that sent Stephen Holt, Isaac Go, and eventual third overall pick RJ Abarrientos over to the Gin Kings.</p><p>An apparent drama even spilled over that deal when it was made official last month, but Standhardinger  emphasized that there is no need to dwell on it. </p><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/7/13/christian-standhardinger-bids-barangay-ginebra-goodbye-1158">READ: Christian Standhardinger bids Barangay Ginebra goodbye</a></div><p>&quot;It&#x27;s professional basketball. We all know that. It&#x27;s not my first trade. I think this is my fourth team now,&quot; said the 6-foot-7, former Best Player of the Conference awardee, who also had previous stints with the San Miguel Beermen and the NorthPort Batang Pier. </p><p>&quot;[Coach Tim Cone] called me and told me that I will be traded. That&#x27;s it, you know, very professional basketball. This is professional basketball, you move on. There are a lot of players that Coach Tim has traded, and there are a lot of players that left Coach Tim.&quot;</p><p>&quot;Despite what the public would like to assume, you move on, you focus on the new task. Coach Tim is focusing on his new task and his new team, and that&#x27;s basically it,&quot; he continued.</p><p>That is why at present, his main goal is to help elevate the Dyip even more. </p><p>&quot;I think all of us just want to affect winning. Last year, winning one [playoff] game against San Miguel was a huge upset. So just building up on that and trying to keep it going,&quot; said the Filipino-German, while also maintaining how he does not want to take the spotlight from TerraFirma&#x27;s main guys. </p><p>&quot;I think there is always a certain [personal] goal, but for this team, Tiongson is the guy. Juami Tiongson. If we lose, then that&#x27;s his fault, not mine,&quot; he quipped.</p><p>&quot;I don&#x27;t want to overstep. I will do the best I can, but we will look at Stanley and Juami,&quot; said Standhardinger, while also hailing Pringle.</p><p>&quot;Don&#x27;t count him out. I also played in NorthPort with him, and I know what he brings to the table. I&#x27;m very very excited to see Stanley just playing his game,&quot; he continued.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:960px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1723370244394IMG_4376.jpeg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="Basketball, ABSSports, PBA Season 49, Barangay Ginebra, TerraFirma Dyip, Christian Standhardinger, Stanley Pringle Tim Cone"/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">TerraFirma’s Stanley Pringle. <em>Photo from Facebook/RPTV</em></span></span></span></div><p>Meanwhile, Pringle shares the same mindset as his fellow former Gin King. </p><p>&quot;Any team you play for, everybody has the same goal. Lesser expectations? I don&#x27;t know whose expectations those are, and what those expectations are, but I play the same way in every team I am, and our goal is to win,&quot; answered Pringle when asked about how he thinks TerraFirma can go in the playoffs. </p><p>&quot;When I won my first championship, I went into the next one trying to have the same mindset. It doesn&#x27;t matter how old you get or the injuries that you have, you&#x27;re always looking for the next one,&quot; Pringle added.</p><p>And much like Standhardinger, Pringle wants to achieve this not by meddling with Tiongson and company but instead by guiding the team as a veteran. </p><p>&quot;I&#x27;ve been working with them in practice and seeing where I can guide them,&quot; said Pringle.</p><div><strong>RELATED VIDEOS:</strong></div><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="3065640"></ivs-player> <script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script></div><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="3065635"></ivs-player> <script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script></div>
