It's no mystery that BGK started sharing the ball and scoring effectively, when Caguioa was on the bench ....... Caguioa's style of play has long been the face of the team, but it has always been it's biggest downfall as well.

BGK will be a handful this conference.

==========================================================================

RoS hasn't lost a beat ...... down the line, from the stars to the last player on the bench - everyone is ready to play and play team ball.

Yeng Guiao and Tim Cone are just light years away from all the other coaches (yup, Black included).

Players are trying their damn best, since every game they play is practically a TRYOUT for slots in their SMCorp mother teams.

Terrence Romeo just dropped 34pts tonight in his 2nd game as a pro. And in an efficient way at that. He went 6/9 from 3, had 6rebs and 3asts. Kung patuloy siyang magiging efficient, it would be great for Global. But if this game gets into Romeo's head at maging ball-hog na, lagot yung Global.

...... But if this game gets into Romeo's head at maging ball-hog na, lagot yung Global.

Just like what happened in their opening day loss to PETRON.

Romeo was sharing the ball during his first few minutes - but instincts took over and he was soon waving off picks from his teammates just to go isoball (!) ...... Kobe Bryant was the only other baller to ever do this.  ;D

Great for Global Port?
By then Romeo will be in one of the SMC teams most likely Petron via trade of course.

BGK has a huge frontline in Slaughter, Aguilar and Reyes plus so many creative open court players so it will be a BIG disappointment if they won't play in the finals this year.

Shootout between Romeo and Caguioa in the 4th Quarter earlier. Romeo's on a roll. 27pts on 11/16 from the field in 25mins. Kaya lang pinakitaan siya ni Caguioa at crunch time. I think he scored at least 11 of Ginebra's final 18pts.

Great game by RR Garcia din. Saya siguro ni Vice Ganda ngayon. ;D

The whole coverage actually sucks. Walang kwenta mga commentator at analyst. Parang di nanonood ng game. Wala na yata pakialam yung Sports5 sa takbo ng coverage. Lugi kasi sila so di na gumagawa ng effort pagandahin yung coverage. Feeling ko binabayaran na lang ni MVP yung fines sa di pag-air ng live ng mga games in a VHF channel. Wala kasing angal ang PBA eh. Malas yung walang cable kasi di makapanood ng live.

Sa AksyonTV Channel 41 (59 sa SKYCable), live lahat ng games sa weekdays (Tuesday/Wednesday, Thursday/Friday) at weekends. Sa TV5, 2nd game lang ang live pag weekdays, 1st game lang on Saturdays and both games pag Sundays. Sa Fox Sports, they air the Wednesday games live. Ang aga na rin ng simula pag weekends. 3:30pm pag Saturday at 3:00pm pag Sundays.

Danny Seigle is now with TNT. Danny Ildefonso has been officially released by Petron and is most likely to sign with either TNT or Meralco. Wala ng natira dun sa team na binuo ni Danding, Ron Jacobs at Jong Uichico. This is Ramon Ang's team now.

I wish Alaska would pursue Danny I. He'll get minutes there and still have a shot at winning a championship.

Very good game by Meralco, great touch from the outside especially John Wilson and Mike Cortez who are ex-Ginebras ;D
Good defense too against the big guys of Ginebra...
Mahina pa talaga si Slaughter inside lalo kapag banggaan at katawanan, malambot.
Off cam kitang kita frustrations ni LA Tenorio.
Nakakawata yung refs sobrang inconsistent sa pagtawag nila ng foul with continuation(and one)...
Pinutakte tuloy sila ng fans. Hehehe.

For which team is the former Red Lion Dave Marcelo playing for?
I'm not updated with the current PBA games specially the line ups for each of the respective teams.
In fact i was surprised on today's newpaper that Mac Cardona is already with Air21.
The other night i saw Rabeth Al Hussani playing for Meralco so who are the current players playing Center for TNT?
Coach Norman Black's system never clicks w/o a good inside scoring center aside from a good tenacious defender and rebounder.
I'm quite confused with too much shuffling of players among the PBA teams recently.

Japeth Aguilar was a clear headcase when he was with TnT ..... even going back to when he was first drafted by AIR21, by refusing to sign after the draft.

Unlike SMCorp franchises, teams like ALASKA, RoS & TnT won't hesitate to trade away players (even with little trade compensation) who doesn't want to play for them.

Japeth has somewhat mellowed down with GPORT and seems to have settled well with BGK - playing with a good majority of the fans behind you brings with it some ego boost and confidence. Good for Japeth if he has finally found a home with BGK.

The Philippine Team to the World Cup will benefit from Aguilar's vast improvements and maturity.
Hope he continues to improve , toughen up physically and injury-free.

Pinakyaw na ng SMC un mga BIG men in Fajardo, Slaughter and Aguilar na si MVP ang naginvest to polish their games via Smart Gilas.

There must be something wrong with how MVP's teams are managed/coached that led to Aguilar wanting out. Mabuti na lang malakas ang loob at may tiwala sa sarili si Aguilar. Kahit na binangko-bangko siya ni Reyes sa TnT di siya nawalan ng pag-asa at naghintay lamang ng tamang pagkakataon para ipakita ang kanyang kakayahan na pinagdududahan ng karamihan.

It is the same with Fajardo. IMHO Reyes never gave Fajardo the chance to show what he can really do. Takot lang niyang mahasa ng husto si Fajardo at mapahirapan ang mga teams ni MVP. Malakas lang talaga ang loob ni Fajardo at di siya nagpa-apekto sa mga negative feedbacks na nakuha niya sa kanyang limitadong paglalaro sa Gilas.

Mukha namang hindi interesadong kunin ng MVP teams si Slaughter. Hinayaan nilang mag-pro si Slaughter sa panahong wala silang pag-asang makuha siya. Kung interesado talaga sila malamang hinikayat nila si Slaughter na manatili munang amateur at mag-pro pag malaki na ang pag-asa nilang makuha siya.

Other than exceeding the salary-cap, there is little to criticize about the way the TnT franchise operates and plays the game.

TnT was still a championship/contending juggernaut when Aguilar came on board (after GILAS 1.0) ...... it was almost guaranteed and expected that Japeth would ride the bench, since TnT already had a known winning rotation.

Japeth was a head case with AIR21 and TnT ...... it's not far fetched that Mikee Romero might have seen the same thing, thus trading away Japeth after a short stint with GLOBALPORT. Like I said, good for Japeth if he finally finds a home with BGK (his 4th PBA team).

As for Fajardo, he was a rookie when he got his GILAS call (a big honor for any rookie) ..... his game wasn't polished enough to warrant heavy minutes from Chot Reyes. Besides, he was playing behind names like Douthit, Pingris, Ranidel, etc ....... I've never been a fan of Chot Reyes' arrogance, but Ive always said that he was the best man to coach the national team.

Without a doubt, TnT would have selected Slaughter in the draft ...... its just unfortunate that TnT does not have high draft picks for some time now - owing to it being a perennial contender in the PBA.

Of course it's different with SMCorp teams ...... they always contend, yet they always get high draft picks year after year after year ....... it's a mystery that only PBA Comm. Cheato Salud can solve.  ;D

Slaughter and Aguilar really complement each other very well.
Hi-Low with Slaughter creating space down low while Aguilar with his athletic ability post high then attacks the basket or jumps from the weak side for possible 2nd shots.
More refining in their games then the upcoming Gilas 3 will have a solid front court to compete in the World Cup.

Actually it's Slaughter who really have to toughen up, he needs to play a lot more physical in defense anyway the rookie playing well and eventually will improve in due time.
Aguilar is awesome! He's simply showing he's the most athletic pure breed Filipino BIG men to ever play in the PBA.

Are you  referring to Mark Barroca?
He probably is not that popular since he only played 2 years with FEU in his college days. He was already a force to reckon with back then. And if he had continued playing for FEU, Ateneo may not have had their string of championships. Unfortunately, there were some issues that forced him to opt not to continue playing for FEU. He re-emerged as a member of the Gilas national team but it was Casio and Tiu who were always in the media's scopes.

He is in the mold of a Jaworski, a big point guard, who can shoot from the outside, drive to the basket, pass the ball to teammates at the right time and can intimidate and make basketball life a living hell for the opposing team's point guard. IMHO, He is probably the best point guard to come out of FEU since Johnny Abbarientos. he is definitely better than Jonas Mariano. He is Denok Miranda v3.0. RR Garcia may have better offensive skills than him but Barroca is definitely the better defensive player.

IMHO, He is probably the best point guard to come out of FEU since Johnny Abbarientos. he is definitely better than Jonas Mariano. He is Denok Miranda v3.0. RR Garcia may have better offensive skills than him but Barroca is definitely the better defensive player.


FEU All Star Guards:
Johnny Abarientos, Terence Romeo, Denok Miranda, Mark Barroca, RR Garcia.

can't blame the coaching staff. perhaps they are still awed by "the fast and the furious" of old who once ruled the league. i, too, am guilty of this at times, wishing that the fast and/or the furious would be fielded when the team is down, only to be disappointed when they are on the hard court already. age has caught up with them and they should accept the fact that they are no longer the main men of the team. LA, mac, japeth, greg, chris, even emman should be allowed to take charge now.

Regardless, with due respect to his veteran dynamic duo, Coach Ato gambled on them hoping they can deliver but certainly that's no assurance.
No matter what, I still believe in order for Ginebra to win the Championship, they need the veterans to perform at a high level specially in the playoffs so they better warm them up as much as possible during the elimnation round.
The very talented and athletic but inexperienced newbies of Ginebra can't win it all for them.
They are only good and fun to watch during elimination playing different teams one game at a time but come playoff, when they face veteran teams in 5 or 7 games series, these newbies will certainly fall apart.
Hnd maibabalik and confidence nila JJ at MARK if hnd sila palalaruin when the game is on the line during the eliminations.

Once again, the refs got it terribly wrong last night.

It was unfortunate that Dillinger got hit in the nose, but it was CLEAR as day that the hit came from the same-motion of Abueva's very clean block ........ there was no foul on that play - even commentator Jolly Escobar was pointing Abueva's clean block and the incidental contact afterwards.

It was Dillinger who pulled Abueva and strangled/shouted at Abueva ....... of course, earlier skirmishes with Abueva might have triggered Dillinger's actions - but based purely on that single play, Dillinger was clearly at fault.

Dillinger should have been sent to the showers and suspended accordingly - heck, it was just a few conferences ago that an import strangled Arwind Santos and got banned from the league, right?

Comparing him with another great Xavier alumni in Jerone Teng, I'd say Yeo is the better athlete bcoz aside from a fearless go to the basket guy, he has better outside shooting and i recalled watching him hit many clutch treys that were far beyond the arc.
Richard del Roasario once joked on a interview with him after he was drafted in the PBA that "magaling sa mga tsambang malalayo un tira" when the game is on the line.

Exactly ...... "napikon" is what clearly happened to Dillinger.

Like I said, it's not farfetched that earlier skirmishes with Abueva might have triggered the outburst, but on that single play alone, Dillinger was entirely at fault & Abueva didn't do anything wrong.

Indeed, many instances in his young PBA career when Abueva's reputation precedes him.

Abueva is a flopper and plays with his heart on his sleeves - but so do many other PBA players ...... there are known floppers e.g. Tubid (Lord of Flop), Barroca, Castro, Tenorio, etc and others who actually play dirty e.g. Tubid, Arboleda, De Ocampo, etc

So far, Abueva has taken FAR MORE than he has given ...... honestly, I haven't seen anyone taken so much hits to head this early in his PBA career - yet Abueva rarely complains and just smiles and shrugs things off. A player like James Yap whines to the refs & the press for a girlie hit on his back, yet people cheer for him.

When Abueva does his antics, people boo him ...... yet when their fave players (e.g. Caguioa, Pingris, etc) show their own antics, they cheer for them.

As I posted long before Abueva joined the PBA, he is GOOD for the league.  Rarely does a player evoke extremely opposite emotions from the crowd. It's either you love or hate the Beast.  The only player I know who's like that is Jaworski ( Abueva's idol btw ).   Nung nasa NCAA pa yang si Calvin, I hated him because I am from San Beda.  Gustong gusto namin murahin at batuhin yan sa sobrang kayabangan.  But as a lover of the game of basketball, you gotta admire the guy for his heart, skills and determination.

No bro ..... it was incidental contact after a very clean block. Abueva didn't do anything wrong on that play.

To be technical about things, it was one full motion ...... the incidental hit came from the same motion as the shot block.

The refs got it right by not calling a foul ..... what they got horribly wrong was charging Abueva with a technical AND not throwing-out Dillinger.

Even the MERALCO bench didn't protest too loudly after the replays were viewed ...... even the TV5 commentators saw that it was a clean block ...... heck, even Dillinger calmed down in a hurry after a few minutes - probably realized what he did wrong.

If a player is called for a foul for invading the landing space of a shooter, even if no contact was made, then a foul, perhaps a loose ball foul should be called on an "incidental" contact after a block shot when the contact draws blood.

Whether the contact was incidental or not, whether the natural motion and momentum of the hand after the blocked shot was the reason for the contact, Abueva has the habit of flailing his hands just to make contact with an opposing player. Unless he tones down on these dirty tricks, people would see and perceive him to be a dirty player. He would always get the raw end of calls.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on Jan 12, 2014 at 08:02 AM
There is a provision in pro-basketball rules about incidental contact:

"Contact which is incidental to an effort by a player to play an opponent or to perform normal defensive or offensive movements should not be considered illegal."

It's very likely that the PBA has these rules as well, since the refs got it right by not calling a foul on Abueva on that fateful play ...... it was a clean block - ball first, then the unfortunate incidental hit on Dillingers nose. 

Like I said, it's possible that earlier skirmishes with Abueva might have caused Dillinger's reaction ....... but on that single play alone, Abueva didn't do anything wrong.

Abueva obviously has his flops and antics, but so do a LOT of other PBA players ..... both active and otherwise.

I'd bet a half-month's salary ...... if Calvin Abueva has SMC, PETRON or BGK on his jersey and/or he looks like Sean Anthony, there would be little or no issue whatsoever from the watching public.

Much as I like Abueva's style of play, even comparing him to Jaworski, I certainly do not condone acts like this off the court.  Jaworski is rugged oncourt but the Big J never gets drunk and never gets caught staying late at night.  I hope Abueva shapes up as he has the makings of a great player.

I look at Abueva as a throwback PBA player that thrives in tirahan and gulangan.  I think he can take the Distritos, Onchies, Vic Sanchezes quite well.  Skills wise, the Beast is a coach's delight.  At 6'2" Abueva can play ALL POSITIONS, much like Lebron James in the NBA.

Abueva is the first ever Filipino player to lead a collegiate league ( NCAA ) in scoring, rebounds & assists in a single season.  That's quite a feat.

Attitude wise, that's where his problem is.  Baka matulad kay Billy Ray Bates.  Magaling pero walang disiplina sa katawan.  Wag naman sana.

Abueva's pissed ...... so many are calling for his head (see: MERALCO top honcho's public rant) yet he didn't do anything wrong on that fateful play.

If indeed he sought refuge with the bottle, then it's indeed bad for him as an athlete.

As for the Big J, he does refrain from drinking (unlike many of his famous 80's contemporaries) ..... but staying out late at night is another thing.  ;)

By staying up late at night, what I meant was having a good time and partying ;D  Yves "the Rifleman" Dignadice, would go to parties, get drunk, sleeps in his car and goes straight to practice the next day.  Jawo never does that and is known to be a health buff.  Ex-Ginebra players Macky De Joya, Joey Loyzaga, Mukesh Advani ---all friends of mine --- attest to the superb physical conditioning and healthy ways of the Big J.  Joey once told me, Jawo never joins them in their occasional celebrations that involve late nights.  Di raw talaga nagpupuyat si Jawo.  He would always beg off early, telling them "Mga boys, uwi na ako iinom pa ako ng gatas ko at maglalaba pa ako ng uniform ko..."

Yes Gretchen B.  And then Ana Amigo who is now married to the ex-PBA Player Antonio ( forgot the name ). 

---

Jawo's physical conditioning is the reason why, at age 45, he was still one of the top players of the league when he made that classic inbound to Distrito who made a twisting layup to win Game 7 vs Shell.  Quite rare for player his age.  He would then be an active player up to age 50 but his playing time has diminished over the years.

Plain and simple, Dillinger should be suspended.

What he did was wrong, dangerous and more importantly, it was shocking to the kids watching ...... anytime you choke and shout at somebody, it doesn't paint a pretty picture.

Abueva didn't do anything wrong on that fateful play. It would be an injustice should he be penalized in any form.

Methinks that Comm. Cheato Salud will once again play it "safe" and side with the "favored" parties ...... Dillinger will probably get a few games suspension (which would be unfair) and Abueva will get penalized in some form (which would be wrong).

If this trade is confirmed ...... then it's indeed another $$$ALE for PBA resident pimps Bert Lina & Lito Alvarez.

I can count no less than 4 separate times when KG Canaleta was traded by the AIR21/BARAKO franchise to an elite team ....... well, at least in this trade with TnT, it wasn't lopsided - Anthony & Poligrates are decent bench players plus that 1st round pick will become another GIFT to it's SMCorp owners.

Those past trades with SMCorp were horrendous and grossly lopsided, hence the banner :

The league has long been Comm. Cheato Salud's PBA ........ the non-calls, WTF calls, non-suspensions, etc right now is the result of bad precedents accumulated from years ago. 

Espinas should have been penalized an F2 and thrown-out ....... same as Dillinger should have been F2 (and suspended heavily) for his run-in with Abueva during their previous game.

Heck, just a few months ago, Pingris & Nabong threw MMA-style punches and kicks at each other and just got 2 days suspensions each (!)

Like I've been saying, Abueva receives FAR more than he gives out ...... for every antic he shows, he gets clear hits to his head in return.

Mark Caguioa with a double-chop to the head of Abueva ....... Caguioa with no intention for the ball since it's clearly hidden from him - even the PBA commentators took notice of this.

Like I've been saying, Abueva receives FAR more than he gives out ...... for every antic he shows, he gets clear hits to his head in return.

Let's see if Comm. Cheato Salud will heavily fine Caguioa ....... doubtful of course, baka si Abueva pa ang mabigyan nang fine for getting in the way of Caguioa's fists.  ;)




most likely po sir.

Delikado pa sa next game 'pag hindi dinagdagan ang intensity sa laro ng Barangay.

As I've said before, for BGK to get into the semis and to the finals, the veterans like Caguioa and Helterbrand should step up their games.
They may have very talented rookies and sophomores but not much experience under pressure.

Ginebra star Mark Caguioa fined P5,000 for hitting Alaska’s Calvin Abueva
http://www.interaksyon.com/interaktv/ginebra-star-mark-caguioa-fined-p5000-for-hitting-alaskas-calvin-abueva

The PBA Commissioner’s Office has slapped a P5,000 fine on Barangay Ginebra star guard Mark Caguioa for hitting Alaska’s Calvin Abueva during their quarterfinals match on Wednesday night.

League media bureau chief Willie Marcial confirmed the development to InterAksyon.com in a text message.

Caguioa and Abueva were scrambling for the loose ball when the veteran Ginebra guard lost his balance, but fell on the sophomore Alaska forward, who was hit on both ears in the process.

This is the second straight day a player was fined by the league.

On Thursday, Abueva’s teammate, Gabby Espinas, was given a hefty P20,000 penalty after the PBA upgraded the flagrant foul penalty 1 called against him to penalty 2 as he hit Meralco forward Cliff Hodge on the head twice when they fell down after jockeying for position.

A mere P5,000 fine for a vicious double-chop on the head ...... and this was during a play wherein the basketball and Caguioa were far apart from another.

The ball was behind Abueva's butt ...... while Caguioa's fists were on Abueva's face.

Well, this is PETRON VP este Comm. Cheato Salud's PBA ...... at least Caguioa got fined a few thousand pesos.

I was half-expecting that Comm. Cheato Salud would fine Abueva instead for standing in the way of Caguioa's fists.  ;)

ginebra-smcm series at 1 apiece. i was disappointed with the way the game turned out. although bgk won the game by a big margin, tim cone seems to have surrendered late in the 3rd quarter when he played with his second stringers, except for barroca, and did so until midway of the 4th, when the lead has ballooned. perhaps it was not seen on tv, but cone just sat on the bench and watched the game. it was too late when he fielded his starters.

the people behind me were muttering -- ano ba yan? binigay na ni cone. puro bangko na lang pinaglalaro nya. pano pa makakahabol yan?

they were sanmig fans.

tambak na ang sanmig entering the 4th, and they were playing with bench players. why field in your starters? besides, common naman na kapag malaki ang lamang ng isang team, ipapahinga nila ang first stringers.

I agree with the penalty kasi sumosobra na rin naman kasi si Yeng Guiao. Kitang kita sa TV yung pag-dirty finger niya at dinig rin yung pagmumura niya.

I just wish Salud was consistent with his penalties. Kung taga SMC gumawa nun, P5000 lang fine.

Trade na lang ng Petron si Arwind at Cabagnot. Masyadong stat-conscious yung dalawa. Ang galing sa elims pero sa mga larong importante, nawawala. They can build around Fajardo, Lassiter and Lutz naman eh. Hanap na lang sila ng player na hindi mareklamo pag di nakahawak ng bola.

But knowing SMC, they'll just hoard the good players.

Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: brainwashed on Feb 08, 2014 at 11:29 AM
Santos is not really a "drive-to-the-basket" type of guy.  He is more of a jump shot type of guy. He can only really be effective if he is set up by Petron's guards, otherwise he would only get the ball when he is not ready or in a position to make a shot, thus forcing him to pass the ball or make a poor shot.

Since the return of Cabagnot and Ross from injuries, Lutz's play has been affected. When the two were out, it was Lutz who handled the ball. Petron's game started with him and he produced very good numbers  not only in scoring but also in assists. In their games with RoS, there were lots of instances were he was free and asking for the ball but the ball never came to him. It seems like, Cabagnot, Ross and even Lassiter don't want to pass the ball to him.

I hope Ginebra wins over San Mig. Kawawa naman si Yeng Guiao kung si Tim Cone makalaban sa finals. Baka maging P200,000 na ang fine sa kanya  >:D kasi siguradong kay Cone kakampi ang referees. Saka mas madaling dedmahin ang sinasabi ng coach kung Ingles itoAt least ang Ginebra, may history na lugi sa tawagan kahit sino pa ang kalaban. kaso nung panahon pa ni Jaworski yun. ;D
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: steelcrazy on Feb 08, 2014 at 02:13 PM
As expected ROS is in the Finals.
I never like Yeng Guiao but still I'm impressed with how he molded his ROS team with unheralded players and made them into a consistent, tough, hard fighting team.
Belga, Quinahan, Cruz, Rodriguez wont even be used much if they're with another team but they form a very solid interior for ROS and even can drill in treys in crucial stages of the game.
Gabe Norwood is supposed to be the superstar of the team but even he's being used sparingly, ROS still manages to win with the likes of Arana, Chan, Lee, Ibanez, Tiu, Tang, Nuyles.
I will definitely cheer for them to win the All Filipino Crown.

Petron needs a back up for Farjardo. Arwin can't play power forward for them as he's more of a wing man with good rebounding skills.

As a point guard, dapat nga 'yung mga small things sa laro alam nya, 'yun pa kayang ganun? Hayahay! Kamot ulo na lang  ;D

Kinakatawan ni Barroca si LA. Di naman kaya ni LA na basta-basta na lang iwan si Barroca dahil mabilis din si Barroca. Nakakapagod, nakakaubos ng lakas, nakakasira ng timing at nakakasira ng diskarte yung laging may nakadikit, nakahawak at bumabanggang mas mabigat at mas malakas sayo.

I don't think so. Coach Ato has too much respect for Guiao who was his coach in the amateurs and then the PBA both with the RFM franchises.
Honestly I'd rather see Guiao face Cone in the Finals.

Pagdating sa Basketball talo-talo, look at the Teng Brothers. Si Arwind Santos na naging coach din si Yeng noong nasa Burger King pa sila at Ninong pa ni Arwind si Yeng sa kasal, pero binigyan ni Yeng si Arwind ng dirty finger sa court kaya na suspinde si Yeng.

Buti na lang umatras ka-friendly bet ko sa laban kahapon, kung nagkataon natuloy, asar talo ako, baka hindi ko mapatawad si LA ;D

Tama ata sinabi ni the_w0rks, ayaw na mag overtime ni LA, baka mapagod sya or baka may taya sya sa ending.  ;D

Ginebra players, coaches stand behind LA Tenorio despite endgame lapses
Mikkel Bolante, InterAksyon.com · Saturday, February 8, 2014 · 7:49 pm

Barangay Ginebra San Miguel veteran guard LA Tenorio made some crucial lapses in Saturday’s Game Five loss against the San Mig Super Coffee Mixers in their PLDT Home DSL Philippine Cup semifinals matchup.

With Ginebra down by two with 13 seconds remaining, Tenorio missed a potential game-tying shot. San Mig Coffee guard Justin Melton gave the Gin Kings a chance when he missed one of his two free throw attempts on the other end, but Tenorio went for a layup instead of a three-pointer that could have sent the game to overtime.

But despite the lapses, the Gin Kings were quick to voice their support for their captain.

Chris Ellis, who led the team with 20 points in the game, said the team continued to trust in Tenorio despite the endgame mistakes.

“We all talked to him. We understand. He’s our captain. He’s more than capable of doing what he does,” Ellis said after the game.

“As a team, we don’t normally tear down anybody. We trust all his decisions. We go with what he does cause he’s our captain. Unfortunately, it didn’t go our way tonight. But we’re confident in everybody and we’ll bounce back next game.”

Ginebra coach Ato Agustin, too, said he didn’t give Tenorio a hard time after the game and merely asked about the play.

“(Tinanong ko) lang. ‘Bakit yun last shot ni-layup eh down by three?’ Wala na lang. Mag-do-down yan. Dapat i-lift namin yung morale ng mga players,” Agustin said.

The coach said that the team must instead just look ahead to the next game to try and come back.

“Nangyari na eh. Nangyari sa game. Kailangan bumawi kami.”

Matagal nang ganyan sa PBA ...... masyado nang maluwag sa mga suspensions and fines - kapag under SMCorp ka.

Pero kapag "others" ka, kahit na LEGITIMATE ang inaangal mo, tiyak hahatawan ka nang matinding parusa ni Comm. Cheato Salud.

http://www.spin.ph/sports/pba/news/yeng-guiao-on-one-game-suspension-parang-binigay-mo-na-sa-petron-ang-laro
Note: Yeng Guiao suspended and slapped a P100,000 fine for complaining about bad officiating ..... yet Alex Cabagnot who broke Jervy Cruz' nose wasn't fined at all?

http://www.spin.ph/sports/basketball/news/norman-black-fined-p30000-rant-officiating-talk-n-text-loss-quarterfinals-san-mig-coffee
Note: Norman Black fined P30,000 for complaining about bad officiating against TnT.

http://www.spin.ph/sports/basketball/news/abueva-dillinger-david-penalized-for-fracas-alaska-star-also-fined-for-flopping-v02
Note: Except for flopping, Abueva did nothing wrong here ..... yet was fined for P13,000. 

Eto matindi ..... just a few weeks ago, Caguioa with an obvious MMA-style double hit on Abueva - no suspensions, just a fine of P5,000.

Caguioa wasn't even going for the ball, since the ball was way below Abueva's body.

Two things .......

1.) Yeng Guiao has always had major huevos (read: balls) ....... to hell with Comm. Cheato Salud's obviosuly biased leadership - I would have shown him the finger myself.

If Guiao wants BGK, it'll be because he believes fully in his ROS team ...... regardless of the huge stadium crowd against him - BGK it is.


2.) Yeng Guiao also has very valid reasons for picking BGK instead of SMC ....... you play against SMC and you play at an obvious disadvantage - the REFEREES will clearly go against you at crucial stages of the game.

EVERY PBA team, except for PETRON & BGK of course, has been jobbed by the referees bigtime, when they play against SMC ...... ever since drafting James Yap - its been an 8-man team for them playing on the floor.

Couple this with Tim Cone, who knows every trick in the book on how to work the refs, SMC will be the favorite if it'll be an ROS-SMC Finals.

I think for Coach Yeng to pick BGK over SMC is becoz he wants ROS to beat the crowd favorite.

Yup, similar as my 1st item bro.

Though, I wouldn't blame Guiao if he'll want BGK over SMC, just because of the officiating issues ....... just these past few conferences, the number of complaints against San Mig Coffee favoritism is astounding.

RoS-SMC or RoS-BGK, either way it will be a bruising Finals.

RoS best chance to win is if they play fast and shoot lights-out, like what they did in the PETRON series ...... like what Yeng Guiao said "leave no room for the refs to rob them".

Nice to see Jawo giving some pep talk ;D  For marketing reasons, maybe the Big J can come back as a coach next season?  His ability to motivate is without question.  Nga lang, baka hindi na sya updated sa coaching strategies of late.

As a fan of Ginebra back in the day, I'm sorry to the die hard fans but I seem to look at Rain or Shine as the team that carries the Ginebra's rugged and warrior attitude.  Parang tingin ko sa GBK ngayon naging glamor team while ROS now is made up of role players and bangers like Belga, Quinahan na parang sila Gonzalgo, Relosa nung araw. 

My two cents lang ;D  No offense to the GBK fans now.

Spot on ...... indeed the Big J's drawing power is unparalelled, but he's long been gone.

Hindi uubra sa PBA ngayon yung mga full-court inbound pass (takbo!) and other styles of old.

For all of his motivational skills, Yeng Guiao's free-flowing offense actually involves a lot of pre-defined movement ...... every player knows where to position to get a good shoot e.g. LRodriguez on the sides, Jervy on mid-range, Tang coming off curls, Belga on top, Quinahan on top, etc.

=========================================================

You are correct, ROS clearly embodies the BGK warrior/ragtag spirit of old - and before that, it was Yeng Guiao's old RED BULL teams.

The answer is easy ...... SUPERSTAR = GLAMOR ...... no organization craves and hoards superstars, the way SMCorp has (PETRON, BGK & SMC).

Many diehard BGK acknowledge this ....... heck, just a few conferences ago PETRON fans petitioned then SMCorp boss Nolie Eala to stop with the never-ending trades.

Post by: VenoM_Unleashed on Feb 11, 2014 at 09:47 AM
'Yung bad call ng ref they're referring siguro 'yung foul ni Yap kay MC after the rebound medyo manipis nga 'yung contact, pero may mga bad calls din going against BGK. Si Pingris dami traveling, pero isa lang ang tinawag. Kaya hirap mahuli ng big men ng BGK 'yung tira ni Pingris kasi pag nag hop, sabay fake, tapos hakbang pa ulit ng isang paa, kaya hirap timing-an. Hindi siguro nya pwedeng gawin yun sa FIBA.

Kahit paano, nakabawi naman si LA kagabi.

Jawo, FTW !  :D

Post by: brainwashed on Feb 11, 2014 at 07:55 PM
The way the referees are calling the games generally favor San Mig's style of play. The referees are (more not less) allowing bumping, grabbing and all types of contact which suits San Mig' rugged and physical defensive players, and they have a lot of them. As for Ginebra, they only have Reyes and Mamaril. Kaya pag biglang tumawag ang referee ng dapat naman talagang tawagang foul, pero dahil sa hindi tinatawagan  consistently, iniisip na agad na pinapaboran ang Ginebra.

the funny thing is, SanMig fans cry out loudest saying pabor sa ginebra ang mga tawag ng ref. admittedly though, may mga tawag din naman na pabor sa ginebra. pero meron din na pabor sa SanMig, which SanMig fans fail or refuse to see.

Anyare Ato?

Pati depensa nila, most of the time naka zone defense sila, madalas naman ma libre yung 3pts shooters ng San Mig, 'di man lang mag adjust, Ato just sat there and watched while his team is being slaughtered.

Si Gregzilla "Slowmo" Slaughter, naka EJ Feihl mode lang kagabi. Hilaw pa Bigmen ng BGK, madami pang kailangang pag aralan, like defense, pwestuhan and rebounding, mahina pa basketball IQ nila.

LA Tenorio, parang biglang nalaos sa series na 'yun.

Si Caguioa lang nakitaan ko sa BGK na nagdala ng same intensity as the SMC players. Si LA Tenorio tuwing titira, napapaisip ako na benta e. Di na matanggal yung ginawa nya in game 5. Panay pukol sa tres, di naman tumatama. Tsk.

Si James yap, naka NBA2k mode sa 3points kagabi. Lahat ng pukol, swak! 4th quarter naman, PJ Simon show na. Samahan pa ng constant Pingris attack - ayun, taob ang BGK ko. haha

Pansin ko, low IQ players ng BGK sa depensa. Ang daming nakaw plays yung SMC kagabi. Yung mga sneaky moves na madalas nangyayari lang sa mga 5-on-5 pick up games. And SMC really brought their D. Lahat ng salaksak, chinachallenge talaga. They really deserved that win.

Sana i-trade na si LA and Urbiztondo. Parehong di ko trip sa BGK maglaro yan.

In fairness to Tenorio, he's one of the premium point guards in the league despite his size.

Let's face it that SMC came up with their A game and James Yap played his MVP game.
The experience factor spelled the difference.

SanMig was the better team last night. and they had the better coach, not just last night but throughout the series. James Yap was sharp. so was Simon, pinaglaruan si JJ during the fourth quarter. more than the players, parang si Ato ang na-pressure at nag-panic.

very embarrassing loss for the gin kings. perhaps it's time they look into changing their head coach. well....baka naman sabihin ng management that this is just the first conference that this unit played together and give ato another chance. but for me, wag na.

There is no doubt that SMC came out guns blazing and they did that til the end. My doubt lies in Tenorio's capacity to really lead a team. Instead of pacing his team as the court general, he shot himself out of the game early on. He should have played the part of a floor leader who orchestrates the offense pero sablay e. Nawalan na talaga ako ng tiwala sakanya. Too eager to redeem himself, nasobrahan yata.

Give me Jason Castro for Tenorio please. haha

Exactly sir!  Naging swapang na si Tenorio.  Sa tingin ko kaya sumama din laro ni Japeth e.  Nabawasan touches nya.  Napakatagal ng bola sa kamay ng guards ng Ginebra.  Tapos in the end, kungdi hurried shot, turnover.  Yung play nila na aangat si Greg para magpick, tingin ko mali din.  Inilalabas nila si Greg sa comfort zone nya.  Dapat talaga me low post plays sila.  Mas gugustuhin ko pa na si Japeth yung da drive, kesa ke Tenorio.  Kahit si Alapag na lang kapalit ni Tenorio, mas ok.  Hindi bibigay ng talk and text si Castro.  hehehe

BGK fans don't put the blame mainly on Tenorio, he's not superman and also give credit to Barroca for his tight defense on Tenorio.
Honestly speaking it's Japeth Aguilar's dominating game that made the team fun to watch and made them march into the semi finals but somehow during the SMC series, he was intimidated by Pingris so he wasn't able to produce.


Ayaw ba nila kay Tinyente? haha Bigay na din natin sa package si Urbiztondo. Wala din kwenta yun e. Isa pang panay dribble at panay pakawala sa tres. haha

I'm more impressed with Monfort than Urbiztondo.

Ok naman yung pag-angat ni Slaughter para mag-pick, ang mali ay yung hindi niya pagroll papunta sa basket. Kasi naiiwan siya sa taas kaya kung naipasa man sa kanya ang bola malamang jumpshot ang gagawin niya. Kung si Aguilar yung nagpick at mapasahan ng bola, pwedeng magjumpshot o kaya magdrive to the basket.

kulang sa Ginebra yung quick-release shots. mahilig kasing sumawsaw muna bago tumira kaya naaabutan sila ng depensa ng San Mig.

Rain or Shine coach Yeng Guiao: "You're not gonna see my players helping opponents stand up after a hard foul."
http://www.interaksyon.com/interaktv/rain-or-shine-coach-yeng-guiao-opens-up-on-basketball-philosophy-on-eve-of-finals

The Rain or Shine Elasto Painters have been one of the most successful teams in the PLDT Home DSL Philippine Cup in recent years.

Two season ago, the team made a run to the semifinals of the tournament. They outdid that by crashing the championship round last season.

Back in the finals for the second straight year, the Elasto Painters are hoping to finally bring home the crown.

For coach Yeng Guiao, the team’s success is a product of his basketball philosophy that has shaped the identity of the squad.

“No. 1, we have no stars. No. 2, everybody should make a contribution whether you’re playing five, six, seven minutes, or 25 to 30 minutes, which is our maximum. No. 3, we want to keep our attacking mentality,” said Guiao.

“That aggressiveness not only attacking in terms of offense but you have to attack on your defense, so the attacking mentality is not just about attacking the basket. It’s also attacking your man when you play defense, attacking their set patterns, attacking their scoring options defensively.”

A “bad boy attitude” on the court is also a must for Guiao’s players.

“Isang character pa is you’re not gonna see my players helping opponents stand up after a hard foul. Kasi sila nagtutulungan silang itayo yung natutumbang players. It’s a nice gesture of sportsmanship. But to me, I think to have an edge you have to have some contempt for your rivals,” said Guiao.

“Kahit na kaibigan mo pa yan, galit-galit muna kayo because that’s the way you really have to psych yourself up. Kung nagbanggaan kayo tapos nagtawanan kayo tapos nagtulungan kayo, you’ll really lose that edge. But after the game you can go to dinner together. Walang problema yun.”

               -      -     -    -    -   -    -   -    -   -    -   -   -    -   -   -   -   -   -    -  -

Magandang laban 'to, baka makakita tayo ng UFC moves sa PBA mamaya  ;D

Post by: newwaveboy on Feb 14, 2014 at 04:42 PM
Like what Yeng Guiao said during the PETRON series, ROS needs to play fast and hopefully shoot lights-out - "limit the chances that the refs can rob them".

This is SMC they're up against. The calls that go in favor of SMC in crucial stages of games (against non-SMCorp teams) are ASTOUNDING ...... stick to their character of equal-opportunity offense and hardnosed defense.

It's a pity that a good majority of PBA fans underappreciate ROS - it's actually the closest team that emulates and actually enhances that old GINEBRA spirit (those old Jawo teams that feature warrior ragtag players) ...... no PBA salary cap violations to boot.

Bad endgame decisions by Barroca tonight. First, he should have given the ball to James who was coming out from the pick. He had a somewhat clear pass. Next, he should have taken the shot at the last second. Tabla-panalo yun eh. Anyway, great inbounds play by Yeng. Basang basa yung depensa ng San Mig.

Bro, Tim Cone's instructions during that timeout, ensure one last shot and one offensive rebound attempt ....... any other team and this might be bad instructions, but SMC has capable tip-in players e.g Pingris, Reavis, even Devance.

Indeed, great inbound play ...... decoys/screens went as planned.

Yeah but that was for the play where James received the ball. That was the only play they designed. You can even hear Cone saying no more pick and roll. Pero di pinasa ni Barroca kay James yung bola eh so nagbago na yung play. It was Barroca's decision na how the play was going to go. Okay naman sana yun kaso minadali talaga ni Barroca eh. Di pa nga nakakalabas sa screen si James, nagdecide na siyang mag-drive. If he waited a bit, James could have gotten the pass or they could have gone with the pick and roll and spotted Devance at the right wing.

Pag tabla-panalo yung sitwasyon, mas mabuti pang maubusan ng oras at di makatira kaysa bigyan ng isa pang possession yung kalaban. As Time Cone put it, the game was "really sayang." Baka magaya nung Petron-TNT nung 2011 Governor's Cup. Petron stole Game 1 on a buzzer beater by Ildefonso and totally changed the complexion of the series.

Instructions aside, I wouldn't mind a Baroca last shot attempt, despite Yap having a nice shooting streak.

Baroca made a nice spin to the basket, just unfortunate that the ball slipped from his hand during the attempt.

I recall that fateful PET-TNT game 1 play, that Ildeonso game- winner did have a dampening effect on TNT somehow ....... though many TNT players were practically limping that conference, a shorthanded PETRON (with a gem of an import, Grundy) played a great series.

===================================================

Just to show the kind of no-superstar system that ROS employs ....... I would have selected Jervy Cruz over Lee for game1 BPoG.

Jervy continues to impress with his high FG% game and rebouding skills, despite being undersized, moreso against SMC's sampayan brigade.

Pero si Quinito Henson pala ang commentator ....... Quinito, mula noon hanggang ngayon ang pinaka-clueless na commentator sa PBA - overly simplistic & head-scratching analysis as always.

Ang ganda nga ng play ni Yeng, "nakaw play". Katuwaan lang 'yung pusta ko sa RoS thinking pagod ang San Mig dahil galing sila sa game 7 vs BGK, pero muntik pa sila manalo, buti na lang naka tres si Jeff Chan at yung nakaw play na nagpanalo sa kanila. Inubos din kasi ni Tim Cone 'yung timeout nila, while Yeng had 3 timeouts left pa ata. Pwede pa din sana makapag execute ng magandang play ang San Mig kung may natira pa silang timeout, 0.9 seconds pa din ang natira, half court set-up pa sana instead of being given a technical foul tapos sa court pa ng RoS ang inbound.

His undergoal skills and tenacious rebounding reminds me very much of former Ginebra Import Michael Hackett.
Cruz is blessed to be with ROS or his game will not flourish with other teams.

Coach Yeng mapped out an excellent play that won them the game.
He had vision that Barroca was the man they should attack and during the huddle, he emphasized it very clearly that come what may the man Barroca was guarding should be receiving the ball.

Indeed, Yeng Guiao's system and mentoring skills allows players such as Jervy to flourish.

Though, Jervy would also have a place in a Tim Cone-offense ....... Jervy is money-in-the-bank with those 16-foot jumpshots, something which the triangle offense would give him (e.g. Tony Dela Cruz).

The genius part of that last play ...... Guiao placed the right decoys in their right places - Jervy/Belga on top & Jeff Chan streaking for the corner three.

Everyone expected that Chan will take the corner three, especially Baroca ...... however, to be fair to Baroca, he called switch to Mallari to cover Paul Lee - unfortunate that Mallari was way too late.

di ko makita ang logic dito. hindi naman sister teams ito na pwedeng pagdudahan na magbibigayan.

Cone obviously wanted to set up the last play that would give them the win. Unfortunately, they were not able to score and RoS got the ball with time still remaining.

Anyway, Cone has claimed the blame for their loss saying that his timeout allowed RoS to see the matchups on the floor and set the necessary defense. Ganyan dapat ang coach, kesa  ang player ang masisi sa pagkatalo dahil sa hindi nasunod ang play, aakuin ang sisi.

Yes, ROS is not a superstar-laden team but they're also not made up of a bunch of role players as most people make them out to be. I think I can only name around 3 players in that lineup who have been role players all their basketball career. Si Ibañes, Rodriguez and maybe Araña.

Most of their players were the stars and go-to guys of their teams during their amateur careers. Halos lahat diyan napag-champion yung team nila sa college o kaya nag MVP or Mythical Team. Magagaling na karamihan sa kanila, wala lang playing time nung nagsimula sa PBA. They're used to playing big games and making big shots already so I wish people would stop acting so surprised when they win big games.

If you want a team that's composed of role players, then that's Barako. The talents of the players in ROS are miles apart compared to that of Barako.

Let's just say the ROS players improved as they stayed longer with the team.

And Yeng Guiao would be right ...... what he means by it, he treates every player as equals and gives out no preferred treatment to anyone, be it playing time, offensive plays, etc.

Guiao will give you starter minutes one game, then relegate you to 2nd-half stringer the next.
 
Guiao's system has no designated scorer ...... what he does is, position each player according to his strengths and leave the players to decide the best shot.

Just look at Game 1 when Coach Guiao started with Jeric Teng to guard PJ Simon, Jeric had 2 blocks and if I'm not mistaken got 5 pts during the 1st quarter.
That confidence for his rookie is a morale booster and will make Jeric believe and feel his importance to the team.

For me lang ha, the reason I don't watch PBA, they don't progress, dami pang matataba. kulang sa practice. tsaka ang pinaka ayaw ko, yung hihinto sa gitna at naghahanap ng papasahan. Wala lang guys. Free country naman e. hehe.

hindi keso sister company pwede nang magbaba ng laban.. simple, why you need to call a timeout after giving you instruction in last ball possession (22sec).. secondly why coach need to call a timeout e na call ng nya after 22sec play. stopped the clock 8.xsec and give final play..

"Luto" from the coaches, in these ROS-SMC Finals series? Highly doubtful.

Seriously, if it were between SMCorp teams, I'd have little doubt if certain games were manipulated to favor one team and/or extend the series and/or team standings (avoid being matched-up).

Yeng Guiao (along with ALASKA's Uytengsu) has long been a vanguard against "illegal" practices of the SMCorp teams ....... he will literally shout & curse at the refs (even flashed the national-bird to the officals table, just recently) to demand a stop to his perceived pro-SMCorp calls.

Mahilig mag-dribble at mag-hero ball. What's the point? It's good that they traded Cabagnot pero they should have gotten a player of a different mold. Isunod na rin nila si Arwind Santos.

That's what they get for being crocodiles ....... ang SMCorp ay kain lang nang kain, walang paki-alam kahit sobrang busog na sila - staying true to the mantra of the greatest crony of all, Danding Cojuangco.

They hoard all the blue-chip players, high draft picks & stack up their coaching staff, regardless of salary cap rules or team chemistry.

SAN MIG COFFEE is the only team in their umbrella spared of all the madness, just because Tim Cone demanded (as part of his signing contract) that he be granted sole authority in picking players, staff & imports.
 
Earlier posts here are spot on ....... you can see both PETRON & BGK manned by a good number of assistant coaches & consultants, all shouting instructions along with the dummy head coach.

The question is, what say does Jarencio has with Global Port? He isn't multi titled Tim Cone who will not be puppet to the management.
It's a good test for Jarencio if he can gain respect from the professional players.
GlobalPort is also a trading pool team for the SMC group of teams so I won't be surprised if Romeo will end up either with Petron or Ginebra in the near future.
As for Jeric Teng, he should be happy with ROS coz he eventually he's gonna grow and blossom with the team.
The UAAP championship may have eluded him, but he has a chance to win a PBA ring on his rookie season and on his first conference playing in the PBA.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on Feb 18, 2014 at 03:58 PM
Sadly, Pido Jarencio would be on a short leash under a Mikee Romero-ownership ....... he has the autonomy to choose players, but once the right sale este deal is in place, he'll have to say goodbye to bluechip players being bought by SMCorp teams.

I too fully expect players like RR Garcia & Terrence Romeo to be sold este traded in the near future.

All Pido can do right now, is to live his dream of coaching in the PBA and make the most of the situation (much like his fellow farm team coaches in Bong Ramos & Franz "Mr. Ironic" Pumaren.).
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: steelcrazy on Feb 19, 2014 at 10:39 AM
Petron and Ginebra will never be as successful as San Mig Coffee mainly becoz both keep on shuffling their legions of coaches aside from shuffling their line ups.
Success requires time. The coaches and players need time to blossom with one another and that's why teams like ROS, Alaska and TNT played with more consistency compared to the 2 San Miguel Corp teams.

ROS wasn't able to execute well down the wire.
Devance was eating up his defender and Barroca went aggressive when Chris Tiu was guarding him.
ROS needs to match up with Devance coz for many moments, it was Paul Lee guarding him.
Dapat si Norwood ang magbantay but he's so busy chasing James Yap all the time.

Anyway I expect ROS to play more aggressively tomorrow night Game 4 and tie the series.

Sangalang has had those post moves before joining the PBA. I remember saying this about Sangalang a few days after the draft.

Sangalang is still better than Almazan. He's shorter but he's still a pretty good rebounder. Di rin naman siya takot makipagbanggaan. His defense is also decent. He may not be blocking shots as much as Almazan does but he can hold his own. Yung lamang talaga ni Sangalang is that he has a post game. Matalino maglaro, very adaptable at maganda ang foot work. If he bulks up, he has the potential of becoming a Sonny Thoss type of player.

Game 4 decided at the closing minutes, yet again ....... ironically, its ROS that looking tired at the clutch the last 2 games.

Barocca, can have a series of no-show games ..... but when he gets going, hard to stop this guy.

I've always said, that a case can be made for him to go #1 during the 2011 draft (not over Casio, Lee & Lassiter though). He's tough as nails ...... always had that Johnny-A vibe to his game e.g. pull-up, great handle, etc.

The bench of SMC really outplayed the bench of ROS.
Again very impressive game by Sangalang playing the post despite Pingris out the entire 4th kanto due to injury.
Melton and Mallari also played great off the bench.
Barroca what more can I say. He's lucky he's with Tim Cone and SMC otherwise his career will just be like that of fellow Tamaraw Dennis Miranda who becoz of too much shuffling at Petron didn't really blossom into his potential as a point guard in the PBA.

ROS didn't play with the intensity they are known for.
Gabe Norwood never really develop his offensive game all throughout his tenure at ROS.
He's inconsistent with his jump shots not to mention treys but also medium range shots and even very awkward attacking the basket.
He's obviously a poor offensive player by heart as he never really shown improvements ever since.

Indeed Barroca is lucky that he's playing under Tim Cone ..... though with his overall game, Barroca can be a great fit under some of the other PBA coaches (except ultra-loaded teams PETRON, BGK & TnT).

The genius of Tim Cone - he recognized that Barroca is franchise-PG material, thus he systematically dealt most of his scoring PG's (ex. Villanueva, R. Yap, Urbiztondo, etc) for Barroca to ease into the lead PG role.

If Barroca was with a team like PETRON or BGK, expect him to have limited minutes due to the unli-superstar approach these teams employ.

Beg to differ on Denok Miranda though, his game had already peaked during his tenure with STA LUCIA ..... even winning a championship with them. To begin with, there's not much to develop with a PG like Denok. These ground-based PG's (ex. Esplana, Arboleda, etc) are usually seen as having slow handles & limited moves, albeit tough and strong.

One last thing, luck didn't play any part in Mark Barroca landing with the SAN MIG franchise (then known as BMEG LLAMADOS) ....... Barroca's draft rights originally belonged to the AIR21/SHOPINAS team.

Of course, everyone knows that AIR21 is owned and managed by the greatest pimps in PBA history - Bert "Pimp Daddy" Lina and Lito Alvarez.  ;)

Pansin ko lang kay Gabe Norwood kagabi parang walang guts to take the winning shot. Okey lang din naman na pinasa sya kay Lee, pero  kung tinira nya 'yun okey lang din saken kung hindi ma-shoot at least alam ko na may gigil na manalo.

Baka sa Sunday naka goggles na si Pingris.

Marc Pingris ‘OK now’ after suffering superficial eye abrasion, says wife’s cousin
InterAksyon.com · Friday, February 21, 2014 · 11:04 pm

San Mig Super Coffee Mixers fans can breathe a sigh of relief as the team’s star forward Marc Pingris’ eye injury is nothing serious.

“Marc Pingris is okay now. It was just a superficial abrasion :) goodnight everyone,” wrote Mara Isabel Sotto on her Twitter account. Sotto is a cousin of Pingris’ wife Danica.

The hardworking forward suffered the injury in the third quarter of Game Four of the PLDT Home DSL Philippine Cup finals after accidentally getting poked in the right eye by Rain or Shine center JR Quinahan.

He was subbed out before eventually leaving the bench to go to the hospital. Despite his absence, San Mig Coffee managed to win the game to take a commanding 3-1 lead in the PLDT Home DSL Philippine Cup finals series.

According to the Mayo Clinic website, a corneal abrasion is the most common type of eye injury.

“Corneal abrasions can be painful. If your cornea is scratched, you might feel like you have sand in your eye,” says the website. “Tears, blurred vision, increased sensitivity or redness around the eye can suggest a corneal abrasion.”

tim cone is really known for picking the best pg,remember he already has a rising pg in quilban before abbarientos became available in the draft.already had one of the best pointguard in cortez when he decided to trade him for tenorio (he could not get his game going in a talent laden team in smb)i remeber na walang substitute pg noon ang alaska,it is by design said tim cone para ma feel ni tenorio that he commands that team.ganun din tiwala ngayun ni cone kay barroca,although he comes off the bench sya naman ang pg hangang matapos ang laro,kahit masama shooting nya hindi sya nilalabas ni cone

I simply don't understand the match up who Norwood is assigned to guard.

DeVance is eating them alive in the 1st kanto.

Is this a JOKE?
If I were Tim Cone, I will definitely agree since Fajardo will become a new project for him to develop.
Adding to that, Farjado is definitely a franchise player and with some polishing, he's gonna be a monster in the shaded lane.
And besides, I don't see any recent local player worthy in exchange for Pingris than Fajardo.
It's WIN WIN for San Mig Coffee if they get Fajardo.

But I doubt Petron will give up Fajardo for a Pingris who's in the peak of his career since Petron doesn't have a center and even with Reavis who's aging, it will not favor Petron.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on Feb 26, 2014 at 05:55 PM
A Pingris-Fajardo trade is unlikely ......

1.) A straight-up trade is imposiible as sister teams are barred from trading with one another ....... even in Comm. Cheato Salud's PBA.

2.) Now, SMCorp can use any one of their 3 farm teams as conduits - it still wont likely happen as Fajardo (even at this stage) has become the top bigman of the PBA. He will be the franchise player for the next decade or so, for the flagship team of Danding.

If ever Pingris does transfer to PETRON, it wont be for Fajardo ...... Pingris will be just "rented" to PETRON to help that team win a championship.

It has happened before ...... not surprising if it happens again.

He actually played the same way he did when he was traded to SMB/Magnolia. He was even a big reason why San Miguel won the 2009 Fiesta Conference against Ginebra. He never really posts big numbers especially sa elims but he comes up big sa playoffs. He killed Ginebra in that Game 7. Ang ganda pa nga ng post-up game niya that time eh.

Didn't like the way Paul Lee took matters into his own hands in the last minute or so. Yes, he played a hell of a 4th quarter & he was attracting so much attention in defense that's why he should've played decoy because Belga was having a field day driving to the basket. Not a fan of ROS  but I was hoping they'd beat two SMC owned teams en route to the championship.

I disagree.  He knew exactly what he was doing.  It' a strategy and it almost worked.  He did it early so as to make the referrees second guess their calls, he broke SMC's momentum, and he wanted to rally and inspire his troops.

And all he got (during the game at least), was a technical for delaying the game.  That is why Coach Tim was livid.

We can't blame Lee for attacking the basket coz obviously Jeff Chan was having a bad shooting night and lalo walang maasahan na offense kay Norwood.
SMC played excellent basketball. No doubt they deserved to win it all. Tim Cone simply showed coaching superiority over Coach Yeng.
Sangalang played like a veteran outplaying the more seasoned Extra Rice Inc.
Lastly, all my praises for Barroca who really carried the team during the last stages of the ball game.

Norwood will be better playing for Chot Reyes, recruit ksi ni Chot yan years ago.
ika nga ni Chot dati sya un naghain iba ang kumain bcoz TNT wan't able to draft his prized find.

I agree with Devance, he played great under Tim with Alaska but was a non factor under Gregorio with BMEG but resurrected again by Tim with SMC.

So Petron will be carrying San Miguel again so I expect a lot of trades to make San Miguel a serious contender this year.

Not to belittle Sy's BLACKWATER bid for the PBA ...... I have serious doubts that Sy can bankroll a sustained PBA franchise - not unless he aligns with SMCorp and becomes their 4th farm team.

Farm teams make very lucrative deals ex. Arwind Santos for P20M.

Though NLEX is another MVP team, it's easily the lesser evil than having another SMCorp farm team.

PHOENIX Petroleum made a serious bid a few years ago, only to be shot down by the SMCorp main & farm teams ....... maybe this time, they can bid again.

CEBUANA Lhuillier would make an ideal addition to the PBA ....... its independent, has resources & more importantly, it can add a much needed regional flavor to the PBA.

That's what I taught.
Sy can't maintain a PBA team with elite players of high salary but he cam provide unheralded players as a training ground to polish their skills then make money out of trades just like Barako and Air 21.

Kia Motors has also submitted a letter of intent to join the PBA. One big obstacle these teams will have are the concessions. Malamang hihingi yan na i-allow sila mag-direct hire ng mga amateurs. Papayag kaya ang SMC na guys like Parks and Banchero won't be available for them in the draft?

Wow, didn't think that an automotive company would want to come back to the PBA - with the cyclical nature of the auto-industry and all.

Good for the PBA and the watching public, if KIA gets approved soon.

No way in hell that SMCorp allows Banchero, Parks, etc to slip from their hands.

Matagal nang niluto ito nila Noli Eala, Robert Non & the Bugaw Brothers (Bert Lina, Lito Alvarez & George Chua) at hindi papayag ang mga dorobong yan na makuha lang nang iba ...... much like Junemar Fajardo was ready to wait, until such time that SMCorp got the 1st overall pick.

Is Barako Bull a San Miguel Group team?
I just noticed former San Miguel Group coaches like Coy Banal and Coach Siot assisting Bong Ramos for Barako.
Another thing Assistant Coach Juno Sauler calling the shots for Ginebra?
Another coaching experiment by the San Miguel Group?
I also noticed hnd bumubulong bulong si Al sa coaching huddle when Coach Juno was coaching the offensive plays with intensity!
After observing my guess is that since its an import laden conference eh bka mahina sa English si Coach Ato at bka hnd mgkaintindihan ng knilang import so Coach Juno is assigned to give instructions in English. Am i right?

Ginebra and Petron are the most inconsistent San Miguel Group of teams since they don't allow their selected coach to mature with the team, konting mali palit agad so those legions of coaches don't really blossom but instead are confused among themselves how the teams will be handled unlike San Mig Coffee which have Tim Cone plus his own personal selection of assistant coaches plus team manager Alvin Patrimonio never meddled with any of his coaching huddles.

They're still nowhere close to how they played last season. They've been very inconsistent and predictable. Basa na ng ibang teams yung laro nila and Trillo doesn't have enough manpower to take this team all the way. Dozier will always come up big for them but local support will be the most important thing for them. Walang consistent contributor. Yung shooters nila, panget ng shooting since 3rd conference last year pa. Matanda na rin yung mga players na palaging babad. Ayaw naman ni Trillo gamitin yung mga bata tulad nina Aldrech Ramos at Ryan Buenafe. Nirerendahan din nila si Abueva.

As an Alaska fan I'm hoping they get to defend their title but judging by the why they've played in their first 2 games, medyo malabo.

Alaska had the element of surprise last season. No one expected the impact Abueva had on the team. Abueva was expected to be good but no one expected the Alaska team to rally behind him. But now, the other teams know what to do with Abueva and he has not been as effective as last year.

I do agree with you about Ramos and Buenafe. Alaska would really benefit if these two are given more playing time.

More playing time for Ryan, YES coz impact player yan buo ang loob at magulang din mglaro but for Ramos, he didn't get any better training with the Gilas team, still soft like a feather puros jump shots lng compared to the rookies Sangalang and Almazan who plays tougher inside the lane.

Pero yun naman ang laro niya talaga sa FEU specially sa offense. Sa defense naman, with his length, he can guard the 2, 3 and 4 spots much like Tony Dela Cruz. Hindi na rin naman bata si Dela Cruz, kailangan na rin ng papalit.

Dela Cruz is a far better shooter with better mobility compared to Ramos.
Ramos can't guard the opposing teams wingman in the PBA, he's too slow for that.
Ramos will be better at power forward but takot sa banggaan so eventually he'll be junked like Mark Borboran.

Speed and agility can be learned through training and practice. Getting the courage to bang bodies is more difficult. If a team isn't willing to give its young players the time to mature then these young players would definitely be junked.

Post by: boredfilmmaker on Mar 09, 2014 at 02:39 PM
Ramos actually made a good account of himself when he played significant minutes during the 1st half of the elims last conference. He was shooting well and rebounding well at the SF position. Nawalan lang siya ng minutes because they weren't winning. Trillo reverted to his veteran lineup then. He has shown he can deliver when given the minutes.

Alaska would definitely benefit if Ramos gets his minutes. Their veterans playing the same position as Ramos aren't that reliable anymore. Hontiveros and Dela Cruz are slower now and their shooting aren't that sharp anymore. If Trillo slides Hontiveros back at the 2 spot then Abueva, Ramos and Buenafe can alternate at the 3 spot. Abueva plays the 4 spot as well so there should be available minutes for their young guys. The defense and hustle Hontiveros and Dela Cruz give to Alaska may be missing from Ramos but his offense can still be a big help to the team.

Observing the Ginebra bench, I noticed the coaching staffs are well behaved, meaning wlang tumatayo para sumisigawsigaw and also Sauler calling the shots during timeouts so most likely he has taken over the head coach chores atleast for this conference before the UAAP season starts in July.

Goin over to the San Miguel bench, sobrang animated etong si Biboy Ravanes mgcoach and who's that guy in suit? panay ang tayo shouting instructions.

Anyway, may dahilan naman pala kung bakit di ginagamit si Aldrech Ramos sa Alaska. They're trading him to Air21 for Vic Manuel. Good trade for Alaska. Their frontline gets deeper and Abueva won't have to play guys bigger than him at the 4 spot anymore.

Alaska seems to be bent on defending their title. They're making mid-season moves which is so unlike them. They traded for Vic Manuel and now they picked up Ritualo from free agency. The Ritualo signing is both good for Alaska and Ritualo. Ren-Ren has a shot at getting minutes since Baguio is the only SG they're using now after moving Hontiveros to the SF spot.

Oh, and it's another delivery courtesy of Air1. Ayaw pa kunwari na isama si Ritualo dun sa Manuel-Ramos trade. I-rerelease din lang pala sa free agent pool.

Tapos medjo may luto yung game na yun. Sobrang obvious yung out of bounds call against Ginebra when it was clear na TnT player last humawak ng bola at nasa harap pa mismo ng referee nangyari.

Kasi naman, palaging pinagyayabang ng PBA commentators (e.g. Webb, Halili, etc) ang PARITY sa PBA ..... yet every conference, the same old teams always get eliminated (read: SMCorp farm teams BARAKO, AIR21 & GPORT) and the non-farm teams contend, at least in the playoffs.

There will be no true parity in the PBA as long as SMCorp farm teams exist and SMCorp/MVP teams violate the salary cap rules.

For the longest time, the biggest problem with SMCorp has been those guys in-charge of their basketball operations - namely Noli "Loverboy" Eala & Robert "Caloy Alde"Non.

Both have zero knowledge of basketball, thus they do the only thing they know - SPEND massive amounts of money hiring all the available coaches (regardless of qualification) & hoarding bluechip players and draft picks (regardless of fair play and salary cap rules).

Perhaps, the only "right" thing Eala ever did was to pirate Tim Cone from ALASKA ...... of course, the only reason that Tim Cone considered leaving ALASKA, was the fact that he could no longer compete with such brazen practices from SMCorp - if you cant beat them, join them.

See Rafe Bartholomew's very candid Tim Cone interview from years back.

Outsider kasi si Tim Cone. He made a name outside SMC. Hindi SMC ang bumuhay sa kanya kaya he can make demands. Wala kasi mawawala sa kanya kung kumontra siya sa SMC management. Yung mga coach ngayon ng Ginebra at San Miguel, SMC bumuhay sa kanila eh. Pag umalma sila, sipa agad. Like Danny Ildefonso.

The problem with Ginebra right now isn't really coaching. Players nila ang problema. Walang gana at gigil maglaro tapos yung import nila, di bagay sa kanila. They should have gone with a wing player as import instead of a post player. Like the import of Air21 right now.

San Miguel naman is doing pretty good. On paper lang naman kasi coach si Biboy Ravanes so wala talagang confusion sa huddle. Si Purves talaga nagpapatakbo ng team. Yabang lang magiging problema ng team na yan. Gaya ng nangyari sa kanila against Alaska kanina.

More importantly, Tim Cone actually knows what he's doing and has a closet full of hardware (championships) to show for it ...... his demand for autonomy upon signing with Eala is totally expected.

Exactly. PBA rules clearly state a $20,000/month salary cap on imports.

Josh Powell is clearly a "name" import owing to his NBA pedigree ...... siguradong may under-the-table-deal na naman itong SMCorp - with the blessing of Comm. Cheato Salud of course.

Note: A few conferences ago, another ex-LAKER DJ Mbenga was unsuccessfully recruited by ALASKA ...... Mbenga wanted way more than the $20,000/month salary and ALASKA strictly follows the rules. A few weeks later, it was revealed that SMCorp farm team BARAKO BULL got Mbenga's services.  ;)

Regardless of how much the San Miguel group wants to pay for a Super Import, if it still doesn't bring them a Championship eh wala rin kwenta. Actually it's at their own risk.
Just like how they tried foreign coaches in Toroman and now Purves.

Whether it brings a championship or not, it still doesn't change the fact that SMCorp doesn't follow the league salary cap rules ...... for both locals & imports.

ALASKA team owner Fred Uytengsu said it best - back when Joe Devance demanded to be traded to another team ...... "Why does Joe Devance want to leave, when he’s earning P350,000 a month and coming off a championship? Isn’t our P350,000 as good as the other team’s P350,000? It’s the same P350,000."

Joe Devance was already receiving the league max salary. He was also a serious MVP contender that year, so he wasn't lacking for minutes or exposure either ...... they were coming off a championship, so he was with a contender as well ...... yet he still demanded to be traded to another team.  ;)

I liked Josh Powell as a role player for the Lakers. Medjo awkward lang na he was trying to be feisty last night when that's not how I remember him before. He was the reserved type who usually kept to himself when he made baskets. hehe

Pero kagabi parang trying hard to be someone else. I guess new country, new personality. hahaha

Hopefully he clicks for ginebra. he is definitely not going to give them huge point production but he was a decent role player who excelled in getting rebounds. Pero mas naimpress ako sa import ng Meralco. Mas intense maglaro e.

nung nasa San Miguel pa siya at nagchampion sila medyo lumalakas na ang loob niya under Ato Agustin.

Yup, Guevarra did show some promise when he was given decent minutes ...... nagkataon na puro injuries ang PETRON noon kaya nakalaro kahit paano.

One more thing limiting Guevarra, like so many others in the PBA, he cannot create his own shot.

Not unless you play for teams with systematic-offenses (ex. SMC, TnT, RoS  & ALASKA), players like Guevarra wont score much and will likely stay on the bench.

A good example is Larry Fonacier - the guy cant make his own shot, yet is highly effective when playing in a systematic team ...... in TnT/ALASKA he usually curls off screens and/or spots up, which serves his limitations really well.

He has the height and length playing the wing but aside from not developing his confidence, he even didn't develop his outside shooting.

Lahat may significant contribution, may it be on offense or defense. Nadagdagan pa now that Seigle is back. Problema lang nila ngayon ay yung status ng import nila. Fell hard earlier and hurt his shoulder. Dinala agad sa Makati Med. Kung seryoso yun, their chemistry might get disrupted going into the playoffs. Perfect fit pa naman sana si Howell sa kanila. Not a heavy scorer but an excellent rebounder especially on the offensive side.

All 3 companies that applied for expansion teams have been approved by the board. Salud made the confirmation just now at the PBA office after the board meeting. That's at least 42 new roster spots.

The PBA will have 13 teams next season. The 3 new teams (NLEX, KIA, Blackwater) will get the 11th-13th picks for next season's draft but they weren't allowed to have direct hires. Current teams will be asked to name 14 players that will be protected. Those not named will be included in the expansion draft to be held after this current season ends in July.

NLEX, being the 3rd team of the MVP Group, will have a vote on policy matters but not on game-related matters. Just like SMC's 3rd team, San Mig Coffee, they can't vote on matters involving trades, game protests, officiating issues, the Draft and salary cap rules/violations.

Good that Comm. Cheato Salud & the board approved the expansion, however I would have wanted that Sy's BLACKWATER team be rejected.

Not to belittle Sy, but I just dont think that he can mount a sustained campaign - one that seriously competes for a championship ....... I have a feeling that after a year or two, he'll go the farm-team route (like BARAKO, AIR21 & GPORT) since its a very lucrative business e.g. Arwind Santos for P20M anyone ?

One more thing, an odd-numbered league this small, might make for scheduling issues, which opens up the possibility of match-up fixing.

The good thing about all of this, those fringe players toiling in the DLeague & ABL will have their chance to show their game ...... there's just so much local talent to supply even 15-20 teams.

Coach Norman's system always involve a good post game by a productive big man, a tough defender and a good rebounder plus a point guard that controls the game with a good outside shot.
Throughout the years this has always been Black's system, he did that before as playing coach of San Miguel with him as the productive center, Noli Banate/ Alvin Teng as the tough defender rebounder, Marte Saldana/ Hector Calma as the point guard.
He even used the same system during his tenure as Ateneo's coach.
Same system with Rabeh/ Greg as the productive center, Baclao as the tough defender rebounder, and Jai Reyes/Eman Monfort as the point guard.

With TNT, he didn't push this system playing the post game like he used to but instead continue Reyes' system with TNT playing the international type of game with speed, fluid passing and outside shooting.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39

It's not really a case of Norman Black adapting to Chot's dribble-drive offense but him incorporating that to his deliberate type of basketball. Hindi na puro drive and dish. Meron na silang post game with Ranidel, Seigle, their import and even Canaleta sometimes. Di naman talaga mawawala yung dribble drive nila kasi they have Castro but Black has done a good job balancing both systems. Swerte rin kasi si Norman dahil yung lineup niya ngayon, fit for both systems.

For me though, they key for their success so far this conference is their health. Both ends na kasi nilalaro nila now that they're complete. Yung lineup nila ngayon solid on both ends. Di na napapagod yung players kasi they have at least a 10-man rotation now.

It's more of Black not rocking the boat - its a winning formula with a lineup full of team-first personalities, why mess with success.

Black just added some bits e.g. a bit more touches for Ranidel down low, utilizing Canaleta & Seigle's back to the basket game, etc ...... but its basically the same group of guys moving the ball well & keeping fresh legs always on the floor.

TnT's health has been suspect the past conferences, now fully healthy (much like SMC's predicament) they're leading the way ...... Kelly's back, R.Reyes is finally healthy, Ranidel healthy compared to past conferences, etc.

MVP is a patron of sports and basketball seems very close to his heart ...... though I despise his piracy & patronage methods in the amateurs (UAAP/NCAA), he seems to maintain his MERALCO & NLEX teams, more to amp his competitive nature; probably get some media mileage for his companies along the way.

Note that it takes is "just" P20M annually to run a PBA team (assuming one follows the PBA salary cap) ...... kung ang ATENEO nga binibigyan ni MVP nang same amount for its UAAP mens team, siyempre hindi niya papahuli ang corporate teams niya.

Actually, Narvasa protested after Jacobs became SMB's coach in 1997. Dahil dun, ginawa na lang siyang consultant and Uichico took over. For me, Jacobs should have been allowed to coach in the PBA for his contributions to Philippine basketball. One of the great basketball minds the country had. Such a big loss when he had that stroke.

Anyway, Alaska is slowly rounding up to form. They've been playing one hell of a defensive game in their past 4 games. They're getting closer to that championship form they had last year.

Ginebra, on the other hand, paid tons of money to a guy who got injured on just his 2nd game in the league. Parang galit-galit yung players ng Ginebra. Nagsisisihan, nagsisigawan. Swerte sila natalo Barako kanina. Kung hindi, baka na-eliminate pa sila. If they lose to RoS next Sunday, TNT katapat nila sa quarters.

He's over the height limit. 6'9" lang height limit ng imports for teams who finished in the top 8 last conference. Macklin is 6'10". Last season, walang height limit so he was able to play.

Freeman's going to be a good addition to them. At least yun, all-out maglaro at may puso. That could rub off on his teammates. These days kasi, judging from the demeanor in their previous games, the Ginebra players don't seem to like each other. That's why the Tenorio trade rumor could have basis. Wouldn't be surprised if Ginebra trades Tenorio to Global for either Cabagnot, Garcia or Romeo.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39

Indeed, Freeman is one import that can fit in any team ...... his energy and drive to win is tops.

Though he has shown some slippage during his last BARAKO tenure, he's still one import you'd like to have on the floor.

Like I've said before, Tenorio is trying to do too much - has been the case even from his last few conferences with ALASKA.

He's still among the best PG's, but madali nang uminit ang ulo and forcing things more than the usual.

If ever ma-trade siya to GLOBALPORT, AIR21 or BARAKO; I wouldn't be surprised if he somehow ends up with Tim Cone's SMC.

Barroca is Tim's top point guard at SMC so LA will never end up with San Mig.
I feel LA will fit and play better with TNT along side Larry Fonacier and for Coach Norman Black.

Never say never when it comes to SMCorp's greed ......  ;D

This season, Tim Cone has been enjoying a dual-PG setup with both Barroca & Melton at crucial stages of games. Not far-fetched that Cone trades for Tenorio should he be available (via any of the 3 farm teams).

Indeed, Tenorio will be a good fit with TnT as well ...... any team with a structured offense, he will likely thrive. The ADMU atmosphere within TnT will be a treat for him as well.

Tenorio has said it himself a few times, he is not a natural scorer - he is best served within a quick/smart passing offense ...... both SMC & TnT fits the bill.

If I were LA, I will definitely request to be traded to the MVP group via Global Port same as how the MVP group got Gary David for Meralco after being a member of Gilas.
The Gilas and Ateneo connection will make him feel at home.
I just feel that if LA will be traded, Ginebra is bound to get Terrence Romeo out of Global Port coz Romeo's talent will be a perfect fit to the Ginebra.

He's over the height limit. 6'9" lang height limit ng imports for teams who finished in the top 8 last conference. Macklin is 6'10". Last season, walang height limit so he was able to play.

Freeman's going to be a good addition to them. At least yun, all-out maglaro at may puso. That could rub off on his teammates. These days kasi, judging from the demeanor in their previous games, the Ginebra players don't seem to like each other. That's why the Tenorio trade rumor could have basis. Wouldn't be surprised if Ginebra trades Tenorio to Global for either Cabagnot, Garcia or Romeo.

i see. all the while i thought he was just 6'9". thanks for that!

ginebra players not liking each other could be caused by some other factors --- coaching experiment, Leon Rodgers, Josh Powells abrupt departure....

Like I've said before, Tenorio is trying to do too much - has been the case even from his last few conferences with ALASKA.

He's still among the best PG's, but madali nang uminit ang ulo and forcing things more than the usual.

i agree....madali uminit ulo ni LA. was able to watch two games live during the semis last conference and LA was really temperamental. pati sa ato sinisigawan nya and he refused to be substituted. also, lalo syang nanggigigil kapag sumasablay sya, gustong-gusto nyang bumawi. unfortunately, he misses all the more kapag may gigil.

Ginebre bringing in Gabe Freeman

I think he will fit well with Ginebra coz he'll complement Slaughter and Aguilar playing together since he can play the wing.
I just hope he's in shape to play like before.

Maliit na nga import nila, hirap pa rin hanapan ng minuto si Japeth.

Would one day be enough for Ginebra and Freeman to recover? They'll be up against a rested, hungry and healthy TNT. Baka mapa-summer vacation ng maaga ang Ginebra.

Anyway, other than the SMB-Air21 series, mukhang magiging close yung playoffs this conference. Interesting to watch, other than the TNT-Ginebra series, will be the Alaska-San Mig series. The last time both teams met in the playoffs, the winner went on to win the championship.

first do-or-die game for ginebra tonight....they now have a great import, and their locals (well, just some of them) have stepped-up last game with three of them in double figures. the import problem seems to have been eliminated with the arrival of Freeman. so is the lack in local support. yet they still lost to RoS. so, what is the only component that has not been tweaked or remedied? the coaching staff.....or should we say the coacheS.

SMB needs a veteran leader on their team. Someone who can calm them down and rally them. Guys in the same mold of Alapag, Hontiveros and Taulava. The teams that won championships the past few conferences had that type of guy in their team, may it be a player or coach. TNT has tons of them. San Mig has them in their coaching staff. Tim Cone, Johnny A, Racela, Alvin, Cariaso. Alaska has Dondon, Dela Cruz, Belasco. RoS has Yeng Guiao. SMB doesn't have anyone on that team who could do the same thing.

BGK's predicament :

They have young, athletic talent that can run and jump out of the building (Japeth & Ellis) and bruisers (Baracael, JR Reyes & Mamaril) ..... yet none of these guys can create their own shot.

Helterbrand is a ballhog, Urbiztondo is a one-trick PG (can only shoot threes, nothing else), while lead PG Tenorio has been playing angry-ball the past few seasons.

The quality-minutes/effective guys like Ababou & Monfort hardly get playing time.

Top pick Slaughter will have bouts of good and bad games, excusable for a rookie ..... while high-pick Forrester, when not injured, looks to be a hyper-freak thus hardly sees playing time (Ruben Dela Rosa anyone?).

As for Mark Caguioa, the face of the franchise - his style of play excites the masses, yet its not one that promotes team play and wins ...... what is unfortunate for Caguioa, he has somewhat toned down his buwaya-act the past few seasons, yet except for a focused Tenorio, wala na siyang kasabay na matino sa court.

Now, there is a ton of notable players who cant create their own shot e.g. Santos, Williams, Carrey, Quinahan, Sanggalang, Tony Dela Cruz, etc. yet these players thrive, since they pick their spots or their COACH UTILIZE A SYSTEM WHEREIN THEY'RE PLACED IN SPOTS OR ROLES BEST SUITED TO THEIR STRENGTHS.

so far, Slaughter has been good. yes, he had some bad games but he's still a rookie. he will improve in time, given he right coach. as for Forrester, i think he is putting too much pressure on himself being the unexpected fourth pick. masyado syang gigil to prove himself. OR....maybe his being the fourth pick has gotten into his head and is trying to over-do himself. either way, it is doing him no good. sayang yung fourth pick ng ginebra. the thing is, hindi na nga ginagamit, na-injure pa.

Urbiztondo is a one-trick PG (can only shoot threes, nothing else)

The quality-minutes/effective guys like Ababou & Monfort hardly get playing time.

acquiring Urbiztondo was a big mistake. yes, he can shoot threes. and yes, that's the only shot he knows. BUT he is not consistent with that, not like Roel Gomez of alaska who also took only threes but was a dead shot. was it Keith Jensen for whom josh was traded for?

Ababou and Monfort have shown that they can deliver. unfortunately for them, they just ride the bench.

Now, there is a ton of notable players who cant create their own shot e.g. Santos, Williams, Carrey, Quinahan, Sanggalang, Tony Dela Cruz, etc. yet these players thrive, since they pick their spots or their COACH UTILIZE A SYSTEM WHEREIN THEY'RE PLACED IN SPOTS OR ROLES BEST SUITED TO THEIR STRENGTHS.

unfortunately for BGK, their battery of coaches are doing the exact opposite. better yet, they are doing anything about it at all. they just design plays that are good to watch but does not suit their players' skills.

Matagal ng walang matinong coach ang BGK.

Richard Del Rosario was a failure during his collegiate stint ...... its not so much the poor seasons that he had with St. Benilde, its that his teams played with little disciplne, which was noteworthy.

While losing many games for St. Benilde, Del Rosario was doubling as the clown commentator of the PBA ....... half-decent coaches wouldnt be caught dead in such a scenario.

Johnny A. deserves a shot at coaching and would absolutely command the respect of players, should he get a stint ...... I'm just not to sure if he'll go triangle or succeed with it.

Johnny A. was a complete natural when he played, that it seemed like he was dancing on the floor (he was a very good dancer, hence his effortless style of play) ...... these types of transcendent players see things naturally & differently, which more often than not, doesnt equate to coaching success.

But heck, if there's one ex-PBA great that deserves a shot at coaching & deserves the support of fans, it's got to be Johnny A.

Fajardo can't do it all for them. He needs a back up at center and perhaps the next move is to trade for Taulava to play back up for Fajardo.
Arwin also doesnt have a good reliever so a trade for the hard working Sean Anthony is also logical.
Above all, put a permanent bench tactician to coach by his own free will for 3 years.

Arwind Santos is the best complementary player in the PBA. Put him together with other good players and he will excel. Ask him to be the go-to-guy in the clutch and he will choke. Sayang yung bayad sa kanya.

SMB has a very talented lineup pero walang leader. They have a solid system in place with Purves. They have the talent. May chemistry na din. They just don't have that one guy to bring them together when it matters. That one guy to rally them, to calm them down. They need their own Asi. If they get someone like that, they'll start winning championships.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: brainwashed on Apr 26, 2014 at 01:28 PM
Arwind Santos can never be effective if he has to force his shots. He would be most effective if he is set up for his shots. That is the job of the point guard. And with point guards who pass only when they have no other options, what can you expect?

Chemistry? SMB has chemistry? I don't think so. They now have two point guards who would rather shoot than pass the ball. Two point guards who would rather waste time dribbling the ball than pass to a teammate. No wonder then that Gregorio let go these two point guards. At least with Cabagnot and Miranda, the other SMB players got to touch the ball in the offense instead of just waiting for passes that never come.

Solid system with Purves? Though I was not able to watch any of the games in the ABL, I see now how Leo Austria beat this "consultant." Abanilla and his system would have eventually brought a championship to SMB. Unfortunately, he wasn't given the chance.

Now, is one time I wouldn't mind the SMB management changing the coaching  staff arrangement. They change it almost every conference naman, whenever SMB fails to win the championship, so why not change it now.

They got Joseph Yeo, Dennis Miranda, enforcer Rob Reyes during that championship.

Racela's problem was not the respect of the players. Some of his players were former teammates and with Ildefonso still around, respect was not really a problem. His assistant coaches were the same set of people he worked under as a player. Communication was not a problem. The real problem was the consultant Toroman. It's difficult to coach when the consultant makes decisions whether you like it or not, whether you consulted with him or not.

Cariaso's problem is that he has never been an SMC player, whether under SMB, Ginebra or Purefoods/Coffee mixer. He has always been the "enemy". The only reason the coffee mixers respect him is because of Cone. The respect given to Cone extends to him. Another problem is that he has never been a head coach before. Players loyal to Agustin, Chua, Saulier, etc may not exert their best under him.

Before Cariaso agree to meet the challenge of being a head coach in the PBA he must demand to bring his own coaching staff and get rid of the old legions of coaches Ginebra had all through out the years.
Actually mas bagay nga si Coach Jarencio for Ginebra but he's already with Global Port.

pag nanunuod ako ng PBA live and hindi Ginebra naglalaro, yung mga patron seats lang madalas madaming nakaupo pero sa upper portions, naku, parang ghost town. haha malungkot na malungkot. pero pag Ginebra, madami nanunuod kahit Gen.Ad and madami bakla fans. although every game madami talaga bakla fans and sila nagpapasaya pag di masiyado madami crowd. Funniest line I remember was when Baclao busted his lip. Biglang sigaw yung bakla "Noy, sipsipin ko yung dugo" hahahaha

The PBA has to ban Yeng Guiao from the league until he undergoes anger management classes. Ang pikon. Okay lang magreklamo pero kung manakit ka na ng player, sobra na yun. He elbowed Hontiveros before. He did the same to Menor. Ngayon, import naman ng TNT hinampas sa tiyan. He was just fined 100K a few days ago for calling Cliff Hodge a mongoloid tapos eto na naman. The referees made a bad call, bakit sa import ng kalaban ka gaganti? Pikon talaga. I actually wished sinapak yun ni Howell para matauhan.

Okay, so Howell called Guiao a bitch in a previous play. What he did to Howell proved it true. ;D

They are a different class coz they've been playing together for a good number of years plus the system introduced by Coach CHOT was continued by Coach Norman.
So 17 consecutive wins = CHAMPIONSHIP!

from the grapevine, the introduction of the triangle seems to be the plan. that will make BGK a "boring" team. not that the triangle is boring, or that a team utilizing it is a bore to watch. the triangle is a deliberate system, which is not what BGK is known for (or what it was used to be) --- a gung-ho, devil-may-care, run-and-gun team.

although the no official announcement has been made, it would appear that The Jet is "it" as coach for the team. the official announcement will be made tomorrow, according to rumors.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on May 04, 2014 at 09:29 PM
Actually, if one looks close enough, BGK hasn't been playing gung-ho basketball in many years.

Since the Danding-boys took over post-Jaworski; head coaches Caidic, Tanquincen, Uichico up to the present, all had instilled the very deliberate motion-offense ...... taken of course from Ron Jacobs.

They still run-and-gun and excite, but it's FAR from the kind of excitement that Jaworski's teams generated back in the days.

I'd dare say that most of the excitement from BGK games are a result of fandoms and fantards - the great majority of fans nowadays, who follow the player rather than the team or the sport.

==========================================================================

Jeff Cariaso is a good guy ....... his heart and effort will be there if ever he does coach BGK.

But the triangle has an extremely steep learning curve ....... Luigi Trillo runs it at ALASKA, but it's way inferior to Tim Cone's version.

Like I said, BGK fans need to stock up on patience ...... that, or hope that they get a great import for the 3rd conference.

Is the TRIANGLE OFFENSE that superior?
If so then why does majority of the coaches in the PBA or even in the NBA dont preach it to their respective teams?
Different coaches have their own style "Diskarte" preparing their respective teams and most of then do succeed even w/o implementing the Triangle.
Actually basketball during the Crispa Toyota days and those of Jawo's Ginebra days were more exciting to watch.
Aside from the run and gun style before, the best facilitator was the pivot man in Ramon Fernandez when he actually dish out excellent assists from the low post.

It's not. The triangle was never intended as an all-encompassing offense.

It's just a system designed to get the best available shot attempt for players at their sweet spots.

In a talent-driven league such as the NBA, it doesn't win much games if you don't have the talent on the floor ...... a quick look at the recent disciples of the triangle - Rambis, Cleamons, Hamblen, Hunter, etc and they all had miserable coaching careers.
 
It's very similar in the PBA ...... the only difference, the PBA is a very shallow league compared to the NBA. Ten (10) teams at the most, with a great majority of the talent concentrated on about half of the teams. 

Post-Grand Slam ALASKA didn't enjoy as much success due to the massive hoarding of talent by the SMCorp teams ...... Tim Cone is a sucker for consistency and he hasn't changed his coaching style much, from ALASKA all the way to SAN MIG COFFEE - yet he's winning championships now because he has an ultra-loaded roster.

Actually basketball during the Crispa Toyota days and those of Jawo's Ginebra days were more exciting to watch.

Like what I said.

Manny Pacquiao says he has reached deal to be playing coach of new PBA team Kia Motors

FROM boxing champion to television host to congressman to pastor and now to basketball playing coach in the PBA.

Global boxing icon Manny Pacquiao said on Thursday he has reached an agreement to be the playing coach of Kia Motors when the expansion team makes its debut in the PBA on October 21.

“Yes, maglalaro ako sa PBA sa October. Playing coach ako (Yes, I'll play in the PBA this October. I'll be a playing-coach),” the eight-division world boxing champion told Spin.ph.

Pacquiao, 35, said the agreement was reached during a meeting with Ginia Domingo, head of Columbia Autocar Corp., distributor of Kia vehicles in the country, at the Pacific Star Hotel past noon on Thursday.

“Nag-usap na kami, wala pang pirmahan ng contract pero okay na kami (We've already talked. We haven't signed a contract but we've agreed in principle),” Pacquiao said.

Pacquiao bared he has long idolized basketball legend Robert Jaworski and now wants to emulate his playing-coach role with Ginebra in the eighties and nineties as he makes his foray into professional basketball.

Asked what he can bring to the table as a PBA coach, the hard-hitting boxer expressed confidence that he is equipped with enough coaching knowledge since he has been playing the same role in different minor leagues he has played with his Team Pacquiao touring team.

To listen to podcast of full interview with Manny Pacquiao, click HERE

The plan, though, still faces a roadblock since the PBA board had earlier shot down a motion to allow Kia and two other expansion teams - Blackwater Sports and NLEX - to directly tap players from the rookie ranks.

Under those guidelines, Pacquiao may have to go through the PBA rookie draft on August 24 to be able to suit up as the oldest rookie in the 39-year history of Asia's first professional basketball league.

However, Pacquiao expressed confidence that he may not need to go through the draft if he is a playing-coach of Kia.

“'Yung rules naman daw nila, pag playing-coach pwedeng lumaro sa team (They say the rules allow you to play for a team if you're a playing coach),” he said. “So 'yun ang aming pinag-aaralan ngayon (So that's what we're looking at right now).”

Pacquiao said he is set to sign a contract with Columbia Motors soon so he can start putting the pieces together for the team's first season in the pro league.

“Sa July pa naman ang (dispersal) draft,” said Pacquiao, a basketball nut who plays hoops as part of his cross training, even in the weeks leading up to his bouts.

Pacquiao also assured the plan to suit up in the PBA has already been cleared with his promoter, Top Rank big boss Bob Arum, who has reportedly extended his boxing promotional contract until 2016.

“Wala namang problema 'yan. Walang problema 'yan (It won't be problem with Arum),” he said when asked about the set-up with his longtime promoter.

Asked about fears raised by fans that his stint in the PBA may end up ruining his boxing career, Pacquiao said: “Coach lang naman ako. Maglalaro ako minsan, pero marami namang mga players eh. Importante manalo (I'm just a coach. I'll play once in a while, but there are a lot of players. The important thing is we win).”

Kia Motors, a Korean car company with major sponsorships in sports like tennis and football, has been silent about its plans since its application for a new PBA franchise was accepted last month.

A planned press conference on Thursday by Kia at the NBA Cafe in SM Aura was also cancelled for unknown reasons

perhaps because Jaworski openly declared that he will accept the coaching job only if he has complete control. SMC does not want having two coaches/teams they can't manipulate.

going to pacman. he should just join the draft. no one would dare pick him from the draft. there will definitely be an unwritten rule that only Kia can pick pacman.

That was three minutes of my life that I will never get back again.  ;D



But it will be a Dream come true for Pacman to be Pro.
Another crowd drawer will be his mom Mommy Dionisia so it's definitely a WIN WIN for KIA's grand entrance to the PBA.

No disputing the fact that it will be a dream come true for Pacquiao. Everyone knows this. 

But the elephant in the room - there are thousands of other ballers much worthier of a PBA slot than Pacquiao ...... there are hundreds of coaches much worthier of a PBA head-coaching gig than Pacquiao.

There is ZERO logical explanation should KIA go with this ..... except for marketing purposes, as everyone suspects.

Tulad nga nang sabi ni FQ, isama na din nang KIA si Anne Curtis sa lineup, kahit hindi marunong mag-basketball ....... Anne Curtis doesnt know how to sing, yet that doesn't stop her from staging concerts.  ;D

Pacquiao didnt asked for it, he was offered and of course he cant resist the offer since it's his dream to play in the PBA like his idol Jawo.
KIA games will be filled and be treated as exhibition games.
I wonder how other teams will play them seriously specially if Pacquiao is on the court.
It's gonna be Laugh, Laugh, Laugh.

going to pacman. he should just join the draft. no one would dare pick him from the draft. there will definitely be an unwritten rule that only Kia can pick pacman.

No other team will draft him. Here's the problem if MP joins the draft:

1. Sayang ang draft pick. KIA will be wasting a first round draft pick on him.

2. Nakakahiya naman kay MP kung 6th or 7th round pa sya ma-pick because of reason #1

I'm a Pacman fan, pero hindi ako pabor sa pagsali nya sa PBA. Sa tingin ko kahit sa inter-barangay hindi uubra 'yung basketball skills/coaching skills nya eh.

Pero magandang marketing strategy hindi lang sa KIA kundi pati sa PBA. Imagine baka pati sa ESPN magkakaroon na din ng news tungkol sa PBA, because Pacman is there. Makikilala PBA internationally. KIA is already a sponsor in the NBA, mukhang naka focus sa basketball ang company na 'yun.

Given the proper exposure, those so called "Bench Warmers" will be able to develop their confidence thus improve their levels of play and eventually become "Stars" in their own rights.
There are so many players in the Philippines but because of only a few teams in the PBA, they simply cant excel but with 3 more teams added, 36-45 players will be given chances to show their worth playing in the PBA.

Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on May 10, 2014 at 10:06 PM
I completely agree with Yeng Guiao ...... the least the PBA could have given the new teams, is grant them direct-hire/s to start their franchises rolling and hopefully compete.

Let's call a spade, a spade ...... the reason Comm. Cheato Salud and majority of the PBA board did not grant direct-hire privileges to the new teams, is the fact that there is a bumper crop of blue-chippers for the next draft and beyond e.g. Banchero, Parks, Alas, Lanete, Pascual, Ganuelas, Pringle (if eligible), etc.

Matagal nang tinrabaho nila Eala/Non na makuha ang matataas na draft slots, para makuha ng SMCorp and mga blue-chippers.

Nagtataka pa ba ang mga tao - year after year after year, matataas palagi ang draft picks ng SMCorp despite always finishing in the upper-half of the standings?

Cone was trying to make a point. Their main guys were listless. They were just going through the motions. They got totally outplayed by TNT. Mas maganda pa laro ng bench nila like Melton and Sangalang. Pero ang problema naman talaga nila kanina was Castro. Kahit sino ilagay nila, kinakain ng buhay ni Castro. Walang maisip na solusyon si Cone kaya players niya ang napagbalingan.

A PACMAN-JAWO TANDEM FOR KIA?
http://philboxing.com/news/story-95431.html

A pair of sports legends sitting on the Kia bench?

Yes, expect a Manny Pacquiao-Robert Jaworski coaching tandem when Kia Motors plunges into action in the coming 40th Season of the country’s only professional league, the Philippine Basketball Association, next year.

Pacquiao, the only man in planet earth to win 10 world titles in eight weight divisions and four lineal belts in as many categories, himself said he and local basketball’s living legend, have started talking on the possibility of Jaworski working hand-in-hand with the reigning World Boxing Organization welterweight titlist on the bench as a coaching consultant.

“Or beyond the bench, if negotiations come to a fruitful end,” Pacquiao told this writer in an overseas telephone conversation from Malaysia where is currently working on several projects he is embarking with the Malaysian government and private sectors as lone representative of Sarangani Province in the House of Representatives.

In their initial talks sometime last week, Pacquiao disclosed that the immensely popular Jaworski sounds amenable to the idea.

“Marami pa akong naiisip na puedeng gawin ni Pareng Jawo para makatulong sa soon-to-be formed Kia team at sa kompanya mismo,” the Pacman said. “And if he will agree, such planned partnership can go beyond coaching.”

“Si Pareng Jawo is the most successful playing-coach that came out, not only of the PBA, but Philippine basketball as a whole, kung kaya nga naisip ko na marami siyang maitutulong sa lahat na aspeto ng sport na papasukin ng Kia,” Pacquiao and Jaworski are kumpadres, having stood as co-principal sponsors in a wedding of a cancer patient they both helped survived, said.

Whatever expanded role the former playing-coach of the popular Barangay Ginebra is hoped to be finalized when both of them return to the country next week. Jaworski is currently in the United States and is expected to be back this weekend.

Pacquiao also announced the appointment of former ace sentinel Glenn Capacio as his assistant coach. He said he is still scouting on who will assist him in the offensive aspect of the game.

“I have several names in mind, mga former slashers, three-point shooters at team men at mga top rebounders. Lahat sila naging PBA MVP.

Sa bench pa lang all-star na,” he said, chuckling over the phone. “Malalaman nyo rin ang mga yun sa darating na araw.”

Pacquiao, likewise, allayed fears expressed by several sectors that his entry in a competitive league as the PBA might jeopardized his boxing career.

“No, I’ll make sure na hindi ako ma-injure ng grabe para mahinto sa boksing,” the father of five with Sarangani Vice-Gov. Jinkee assured.

“They have nothing to worry. I’m more of a boxer than basketball player.” I want to play basketball because, outside of boxing, that’s the sport closest to my heart, too.”

“But not to the extent if risking my bread and butter which is boxing,” he added. “Kaya nga gusto ko nasa tabi ko si Pareng Jawo.

Alam nya kung kailan ako dapat pumasok sa laro at kung kailan ako dapat lumabas.”

“I thanked those who expressed concern over my decision to play in the professional basketball. I understand the game. I will focus more on coaching rather than playing especially during crucial games,”

Pacquiao explained, adding he would give more playing time to other players.

“Hindi ko na kailangan pang sumikat gaya ng sabi ng marami. Gusto ko lang talaga makapagdulot ng kaligayahan sa maraming tao, Pacquiao related. “ Nagagawa ko na yan sa boksing, gagawin ko rin sa basketball, the sport that is supposed to be the nation’s favorite pastime.”

A bitter parting of ways in pro-sports is always a possibility ..... though in this case, methinks it was amicable owing to the very long association that the Trillo's have with ALASKA.

Also, I often see Luigi with his family, here in Laguna/Tagaytay ...... seems like your regular family guy, hence should be sincere about wanting more time with his kids. Good for him.

Alex Compton has long been a coach-in-waiting ...... Compton isn't a triangle-disciple, so it's anyone guess if he'll stick with it or go with his own quick-passing style.

I guess you don't watch Alaska-San Mig games. Tim Cone and Luigi Trillo do not like each other. They used to but not anymore. Practice game pa lang, nagsasagutan na yung dalawa. In actual games, pati team governor ng San Mig na si Rene Pardo, nakakasagutan ni Trillo. No chance San Mig will hire Trillo as an assistant. May bad blood eh. Si Luigi rin kasi ang last coach na tumalo kay Cone in a playoff series.

Feeling ko inayawan na ng players ng Alaska si Trillo just like what happened with Joel Banal before. Either napilitan si Uytengsu tanggalin or kusa na lang nag-resign si Trillo. Parang iba kasi yung demeanor ng players nung last game nila vs Global compared to the game kanina vs TNT.

kawawa naman si Taha. two years in the league, but he has been into six teams already. with him jumping from one team to another, i don't think he will have the chance to improve anymore. and i also doubt that he will be utilized at SMCM. yancy was traded due to the overload at center position. Taha is a center.

The play here is PURELY exposure both for Kia and Pacman.  Pacman will be the coach in paper, but ultimately the assistants like Glen Capacio will call the shots. Yun mga play dyan di kahon na yan -- play 1, play 2, play 3.  All designed by the assistant coaches, not Pacman. 

What's in it for Kia?  Instant exposure.  May hatak si Pacman,   Sure yan.  Whether Pacman is a good or a lousy coach, people will watch.

What's in it for Pacman?  More exposure, now that his boxing days may soon be over and his political career will be active again.  This will be good for his ambition to be a Senator and higher.  Malupit ang mileage pag nasa PBA ka.  Pag naging Senator si Pacman, sigurado makikinabang dyan sila Alvarez of Kia.  Remember, Kia is a member of the Lina group of Co's.  Mga politiko yan ;D

Seems like a tactical move for me for both Kia and Pacman.  It's more than basketball, indeed.

Bilog ang bola. May tsamba. May mga pagkakataon na wala sa kundisyon ang buong team samantalang ang kalaban naman ay swerte.

When Luigi Trillo replaced Banal as the coach of Alaska, people questioned the Alaska management's decision. And yet, Trillo won a championship for Alaska. Si Pido nga hirap na hirap papanalunin ang Globalport. Hindi naman na pipitsugin ang mga players ng Globalport. Let's give Pacquiao the chance to prove himself.

It's not whether Pacquiao can win a basketball game ..... this is Comm. Cheato Salud's PBA, where only half of the teams are capable to win consistently and the other half, made up of farm teams.

Also, getting a great import in 2/3 conferences almost guarantees a few wins ..... moreso, against those known farm teams.

The great majority of the rants against Pacquiao, is that he isn't even qualified to coach to begin with AND there are HUNDREDS of other people more qualified to coach than him.

To top it all off, KIA KAMAO pa ang ipapangalan sa team !  ;D

This is obviously a marriage of KIA and Pacquiao milking the PBA for all the media sway it can get, with the actual sport/competition being a distant second to its priorities.

Baka mahal masyado ang Alaska. Namamahalan nga sa 100M franchise fee, and Air21 is being peddled for 200M. Baka nasa 500M ang Alaska.

Also, wala kasing masyadong benefit sa NLEX ang pag join sa PBA. Wala naman silang consumer product na mina-market, kaya tipid tipid. Like Meralco, may captive market ang NLEX.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on Jun 17, 2014 at 12:51 PM
It's likely, AIR21 ..... Lito "Bugaw" Alvarez has recently confirmed talks between his boss, Bert "Pimp Daddy" Lina and the MVP group.

Besides, AIR21 has always preferred money than running a competitive PBA team e.g. Arwind Santos sold to SMB for P20M.

ALASKA's Uytengsu has already shot down rumors of its sale, while BARAKO BULL belongs to SMCorp (wink-wink) ...... GLOBALPORT is another SMCorp team ...... so, its between ROS and AIR21.

Though, ROS is a possibility, AIR21 would be the most willing seller right now.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: boredfilmmaker on Jun 18, 2014 at 11:12 PM
Yeah, looks like it's Air21 and not Alaska. Mas mabuti na rin yun kasi mas gusto ko patakbo ng Alaska management. They're back in the semis now after booting out Ginebra.

Anyway, sad to see Jason Webb leave the TV panel as he's the most sensible analyst the PBA has right now. Nice to see him finally get a chance to be part of a coaching staff, though. He deserves it and San Mig Coffee will benefit from his hiring.

The reason behind Yeo's good performance is playing time. And he has been playing the point guard position allowing him to handle the ball more. With Ginebra, he would be in a similar position as he was when he was with Petron/San Miguel. He would have less playing time and he would be handling the ball less, that is, if he even gets to touch the ball on offense.

Very true, all players need the proper exposure to develop and polish their game.
They play better and more confident when given lots of playing time.

Talo nanaman ang Petron, I just dont understand why they are not beefing up its frontline. Fajardo needs some support and backup and Petron needs to develop their bench just like San Mig and ROS.

The past few conferences, PETRON already bought este traded for Kramer, Maierhofer & Chua - all from their farm teams BARAKO & GBP.

Those three back-up starters Fajardo & Santos - coincidentally, also via BARAKO/AIR21 sales este trades as well.

PETRON has a very solid frontline core ....... sadyang mahina lang itong si Tim Clone a.k.a. Todd Purves gumamit nang personnel.

Masyadong babad si Fajardo, kaya pagdating sa Q4, medyo pagod na ....... for all his athleticism, hindi pa din magamit nang maayos si Arwind Santos ........ Maierhoffer should be given more playing time - the guy is very effective when given consistent minutes.

No, they wont help nga but what the execs meant was that di nadedevelop mga young players. Naiinis sila dahil panay rely sa vets like Jimmy and De Ocampo. Also naiinggit sila with the way Tim Cone utilizes his rookies. Yun ang point nila kagabi.

i see... mahirap kasing icompare yung young/rookie ng SanMig sa young/Rookie ng TnT...

there so much talent on the young ones ng sanmig... malalim ung bench
even si Cawaling(ok maglaro sa ABL with SanMiguel) hindi din masyado nagagamit sa dami ng ok sa bench.

dapat maintindihan din ng exec or ng players baket konti lang playing time nila lalo na sa mga gantong laban...
8-10 man rotation is needed on this situation for TnT.. For SanMig they can rotate up to 12man due to more skilled players..
eto lang ung hindi masyado nagagamit sa sanmig Gaco, alvarez,Holstein, taha

parehas ko team yang TNT and SanMig.. kaya lang die hard fan of Alvin patrimonio,kaya pagmagkalaban sila e Sanmig ako..

I may sound like a broken record in the thread - SMCorp simply pays its farm teams to get blue-chip rookies and top draft slots ...... SMCorp also circumvents the salary cap by giving under-the-table-salaries to its players.

Except for Yap & Simon, everyone of their starters and 2nd stringers all came from their George Chua/Bert Lina farm teams ....... Pingris, Barroca, Devance, Sangalang, Maliksi, Mallari, Melton, Taha & Matias.

Heck, even the aging, yet still serviceable, Reavis came from that infamous lopsided raiding of then COKE team (via BGK).

The last "questionable" trade that MVP approved was the raiding of then STA.LUCIA to get Kelly Williams & Ryan Reyes ....... TnT had mostly relied on trading for vets e.g. Fonacier from ALASKA to build it's main core.

yung free throw ni Castro nagmimintis talaga kahit di sadya. mali mechanics nya e. he bends, tip toes and waits a little bit before releasing. it negates the effect of bending the knees. hindi fluid motion. ive seen it up close. di ko na alam yung kay devance

I've always said that getting a legit NBA campaigner as a PBA import poses big risks - some play it safe, hoping for the next call from the NBA ...... many play with poor attitudes e.g. Art Long, Hassan Adams, etc.

If Bill Walker just concentrates on the game, rather than the antics, ALASKA will be a serious contender.

Lets hope for another great game on SAT.

Farm team ba talaga ang Global Port? Mikee Romero is a huge basketball fan and a billionaire.

Romero is indeed filthy rich, but that doesnt exempt his team from being a farm team of SMCorp ...... Ramon Ang (and even MVP) has significant stake at Romero's businesses.

Romero is acting the very same way that Bert Lina did, when hid AIR21 team first came into the PBA ...... he's fielding a competitive team, but is available for business once his SMCorp associates come knocking - Japeth, Casio (conduit for Tenorio), Sol Mercado (for the very unpopular Cabagnot), Chris Ross, Justin Chua, Jay Washington (who had a long running spat with Arwind Santos), Holstein (a Tim Cone project), etc.

Look at all of those trades ...... very unusual for a team entering only it's second year of existence.  ;)

Barroca is quick, strong and "magulang". That is why he gets the better of the point guards of the other teams most of the time. He may have a more difficult time against Paul Lee, that is, if Lee comes out to really play hard. Lee has the tendency to play with a "diva" attitude.

Lee has to keep on attacking Barroca and taking him out of his rythm which comes best during the finals minutes of every crucial down to the wire game.

ROS cant match up well with San Mig.
Hirap sila kay Devance coz Norwood was always assigned to guard James Yap which leaves their off guards guarding Devance.
Another thing is Norwood is such a poor offensive player that ROS can't expect much production from him.
Sad to say over the years with ROS, he never develop his offensive game, not even develop a consistent medium range jumper or even slashing and attacking the basket in traffic.

ROS had difficulty winning over a depleted Alaska team mainly because they could not control the rebounds. Alaska had already lost 2 of their best big men and yet ROS gave away too many second chance points. San Mig Coffee is taller and healthier. Their confidence is very very high. And they can play physical too. ROS is really at a great disadvantage and definitely will be the underdog in this final series.

No doubt that ROS will be the underdogs ....... In fact, anyoneplaying against SMC is already at a disadvantage.

Aside from Tim Cone and SMC's loaded roster, the zebras always favor James Yap and his men. This is cold hard fact.

I've said it before that ROS needs to play fast and shoot exteremely well when facing SMC ....... making it a slow down, grind-out game will heavily favor SMC.

Law of Verticality not applicable with SMC, Pingris was moving towards Lee when Lee attempted a tres. It doesn't matter kung ang tira ni Lee ay pasugod, paatras or patuwad, the offensive player should be creative with his shot para hindi  matapal ang bola. Hindi naman straight up ang talon ni Pingris kundi pasugod sa offensive player and there was an obvious contact. Sa harap pa nga ref nangyari. Kung nakita nyo 'yung hitsura ng coaching staff ng RoS mukhang inapi talaga.  :-[

Ewan ko lang ah, pero the "technical analyst" doesn't seem to know what he's talking about. Parang nagbabasa lang ng sa passage libro and spouting out the rules. Hindi nagcocomment dun sa mga actual na nangyayari. Alisin na sana nila yun.

the TA seems to stutter a lot while explaining hahaha

At dahil sa comment ng TA, malamang bumingo na sya sa SMC, kagaya ng wish ni SickBoy, malamang matanggal na sya sa PBA, kasi doon sa isa pang play wherein after a missed FT by a RoS player, nakuha ni Ibañes 'yung rebound tapos nagkabungguan sila ni Melton at na out of bounce este na out of bounds si Ibañes with the ball, tapos no call sa ref and the ball went in favor of SMC. Sabi ng TA, okey lang daw na "no call" kung hindi na out of bounds si Ibañes, kaso na out of bounds kaya dapat daw tinawagan ng foul si Melton.  :)

Mahalaga ba kung nag stutter sya or hindi nya alam ang pangalan ng player?

Para sa akin ang mahalaga 'yung alam nya kung ano ang tamang hatol, ang tinitingnan dun 'yung play at violation committed hindi 'yung the way he speaks, kahit sabihin nya si James Yap 'yun imbes na si Pingris ang importante, uulitin ko tama dapat ang hatol at tama ang paliwanag base sa rules ng liga.

With the way Comm. Cheato Salud has flip-flopped about the amount of contact and how flagrant fouls are determined, there's not much use for the TA anyway.

The Zebras on the floor cant get it right because of the bad precedents by Salud - how in the world can the TA give out a clear definition of the rules.

PBA won't stop technical consultant Perry Martinez from commenting on referees calls for TV coverage
http://www.spin.ph/sports/basketball/news/pba-wont-stop-technical-consultant-perry-martinez-from-commenting-on-referees-calls-for-tv-coverage-v02

Quote:

"Asked if Sports5 sought the consent of the PBA to ulitize Martinez for the TV coverage, Marcial nodded.

"Oo,  ipinagpaalam sa amin 'yun. At gusto namin yung ganun kasi mas nakikita namin ang pulso at debate ng mga fans. Mas nagiging bahagi ng coverage at liga ang mga fans," he said.

"I think his role (as referee analyst) will help educate fans on the nuances of officiating," Marcial added. "Kita mo naman, hanggang ngayon nagde-debate pa rin sila. Ibig sabihin, buhay ang suporta ng bawat isa sa mga laro." "

‘Parang Wowowee’: Yeng Guiao compares PBA draft lottery to alleged cheating scandal
http://www.interaksyon.com/interaktv/parang-wowowee-yeng-guiao-compares-pba-draft-lottery-to-alleged-cheating-scandal

“Parang Wowowee.”

That’s how Rain or Shine coach Yeng Guiao described the controversial draw in the PBA draft lottery that drew negative reactions from fans.

Guiao compared it to an incident in the variety show a few years back where a technical error raised allegations that a segment was rigged by producers.

“Hindi naman pwedeng mananahimik na lang tayo. We’re the aggrieved party here because we own the Meralco pick,” Guiao said.

“Ang daming nakakakita na sa YouTube eh.”

Guiao does not believe the draft lottery was conducted in an appropriate manner.

“The method was crude. It was lacking in credibility,” he said.

Earlier, Alaska’s representative to the PBA board Dickie Bachmann suggested to the PBA to come up with a more transparent process, even showing to the Commissioner’s Office through special assistant to the commissioner and media bureau chief Willie Marcial, an image of the equipment being used by the NBA’s own draft lottery.

But Guiao believes there’s a bigger issue that needed to be addressed.

“I don’t think the issue here now is the process. The process needs to be improved definitely, but the credibility and the integrity of the process itself and the commissioner, who was conducting the lottery draw, is in question,” the coach added.

Noli Eala ....... natanggal sa PBA dahil walang moral authority to lead.

Na disbar sa pagiging abogado dahil linabag ang ika-7th commandment.

Lumipat sa MVP camp bilang top honcho nang unang GILAS team, ngunit linabag naman ang ika-8th commandment ..... kaya muling natanggal sa pwesto.

Lumipat sa SMCorp bilang head of basketball operations, ngunit linabag naman 9th and 10th commandments ...... pati sarili niyang mga tauhan ay tutol na sa kasibaan niya - kaya linipat na lang sa isang deskjob sa SMCorp.

SMCorp = SMB, BGK, SMC, BARAKO, GPORT ..... mabuti nga at nabawas na sa kanila ang AIR21

Yet BGK & PETRON has only entered 2 out of 9 Conference Finals  ....... zero championships.

When Caguioa won the MVP, BGK did not even make it into any Conference Finals ....... Fajardo won this season, yet PETRON did not make it into any Conference Finals also.

Wala din masyado offensive contribution local players ng RoS, wala naka double figure, closest was Extra Rice with 8pts, na injured pa ata kanina. Si Paul Lee 2 pts lang? Walang angas (ng Tondo)  ???

No doubt the San Mig bench is more talented than that of ROS but I'm still hopeful that ROS can spoil San Mig's Grand Slam ambition.

May injury si Blakely. Coach Tim has been keeping it a secret. Still, according to Coach Tim, a 75% - 80% Blakely is still better than most imports out there.

Let's face it, Chris Tiu's talent is not meant for the PBA.
He's just lucky he's a respected icon off the court being a very rich businessman.
Coach Yeng is obviously being fair to him by giving him face and hope he can make some contributions to ROS but more often when opposing teams saw him on the court, they either press him when he's dribbling or attack him on the defensive end.

I don't think Guiao would even use Tiu if he feels Tiu doesn't contribute anything. Tiu's being a respected icon and rich businessman has nothing to do with his fielding in.

Daming open looks sa tres ng RoS pero hindi pumasok, hindi talaga para sa kanila.

Which PBA team has better talents than the Mixers? As far as i'm concern San Mig has the deepest bench and best chemistry among all the teams. Hnd ksi palipatlipat ng players and swapping of coaches/assistant coaches unlike the other San Miguel group of teams.

Pede sa coach, specially ke tim cone. Compare mo yun line up ng alaska (tim cone era) versus SMC laki ng kina iba at yun 2nd five ng san mig ang lakas pa din.

what if nag swap ng team?
Malamang mapagtatalo yan SMC again check kung ano nangyari sa alaska nun iniwan ni tim cone. Mga do or die at yun dikit ang laban up to the last second sigurado talo smc.

Papaano kaya napapagkasya ng smc  ang sweldo ng mga players ng hindi lumlagpas sa salary cap?

Tim Cone is hands down the greatest coach in PBA history ....... but coaching and a killer offensive system can only take you so much.

In pro basketball, you need TALENT to win championships.

Like I've said more than a few times, Tim Cone won big with ALASKA during the Abbarientos-era ..... post-Abbarientos, he won just 4 championships in over 12 years!

Four championships in 12 years is a feat in itself, but pales in comparison to his earlier years.

Once Tim Cone came to SMC, he began winning again, BECAUSE he had an ultra-loaded roster at his disposal.

Exactly bro ...... this is one aspect of the PBA that's been ignored by the great majority of fans.

There is no way in hell that SMC stays under the PBA salary cap with that loaded roster ...... Its a known fact in the PBA newsbeat that James Yap receives no less than 500K/month.

By the way, halos lahat nang lineup nang SMC is composed of players bought este traded from its farm teams (Lina/Chua) ...... si PJ Simon lang ang tanging notable SMC-owned draft pick.

i beg to difer with this

In pro basketball, you need TALENT to win championships.

madaming factor to consider on winning championship. Talent could be part of it but not all talent.
Checked San Miguel / Petron - they have the most talented players for the past 10years.
Madaming talented players na nakupo lang nagpapalake ng itlog. 

Sobra sa talent - Kung talent paguusapan dapat naka 10peat na yang SAN MIGUEL hehe..

PISTON with chauncy billup... do they have talent? yes they have but not as talented as LA Lakers when they met in the Final.

So many factors to consider on winning championship

GOOD COACH - > staff behind him
 coach who can motivate talented or not so talented players
players - talented or not talented - know your role hehe

Its a TEAM PLAY

Three (3) championships during the Gregorio era - one was because PUREFOODS was a complete team and the PBA lent its top talents to thr National Team ...... the two other championships were controversial since the refs made some very fine work (IIRC Joe Devance was involved, since he was with ALASKA then).

From Rappler:

xxx

Manny Pacquiao is going to be the head coach of KIA. So, it makes a great situation if he gets drafted to be a player of the team – making him a “playing-coach.” Nonetheless, there’s a chance another team could pick him up first. Maybe GlobalPort, which owns the No. 1 pick in the 2014 PBA Draft, or No. 2 Rain or Shine.

However:

“I’m sure he made arrangements with the other teams not to draft him,” according to the source. “Undoubtedly, meron nang usapan yan na hindi siya kukunin nang mga ibang team.” (Without a doubt, there’s an agreement that he won’t be picked by another team)

But what if another club does draft Pacquiao? Will he relinquish his role as KIA’s head coach? Will the consequences of such a scenario be severe?

“You can imagine the fiasco if somebody breaks the gentlemen’s agreement,” says the source, who noted a similar happening 14 years ago.

In 2000, PBA legend Allan Caidic was nearing the twilight of his career and was a playing coach for the Barangay Ginebra Kings. To protect his players from the upcoming expansion draft of that year, Caidic made himself an unprotected roster member.

And then what happened?

“Yeng Guiao (coach of Red Bull) picked him.”

“Just so that he (Caidic) won’t play for Red Bull, he retired."

Instead of a guy like Uyloan, ROS relegates 1st round pick Nuyles to the dispersal draft.

However, it just shows the kind of organization that ROS has ....... first off, ROS already has the 2nd overall pick in the upcoming draft - where they will most likely select Banchero, who is easily an upgrade from Nuyles.

Also, its very likely that Yeng Guiao wanted to give Nuyles a nice break ...... by being in the dispersal draft, its guaranteed that he'll land in an expansion team and get more playing time.

Why not Teng? Why not Tang? ....... Jeric Teng & Chris Tiu are highly valued by ROS owners for their commercial appeal, while Tang's family is in business with ROS owners.

As for Larry Rodriguez, he's the weakest link among the ROS bigs due to his limited range - something which Guiao highly value ...... Belga, Quinahan, Cruz, etc all have extended range, while Almazan is a future stalwart.

it's not just talent but looking for the right player for his system.tim cone has an eye for that.some of the best trades he did was quilban for johnny a,duremdes for lago,cortez for tenorio.even some thought the trade for de ocampo for rico m. was a mistake but de ocampo proved to be a revelation during his stint with san mig.

However, when Tim Cone transferred to SMC, he already had a core of Yap, Simon, Pingris, Rico. M, Devance, Reavis, etc ....... SMC was already loaded enough to run his triangle.

Tim Cone then got some more pieces in Maliksi & Sangalang via extremely lopsided trades.

In fairness to Gregorio, he did have his share of success with BMEG but he can't turn Meralco into a champion team of course with the presence of sister team TNT.
As for the coaching change, I'm sure BLack will do better with Meralco since he can start his old school system again but I dont think Uichico will do well with TNT, actually I find Nash Racela a better replacement for Black at TNT since Nash is more likely to continue the system brought in by Coach CHOT before.

MANILA, Philippines – The former Air21 Express now known as the NLEX Road Warriors have released former La Salle standout Joseph Yeo in a deal with Barangay Ginebra San Miguel.

In return, the Road Warriors will be getting the Gin Kings’ first-round draft pick in 2015, according to the PBA website.

NLEX, which bought the Air21 franchise to gain entry to the league, also traded draft picks with the San Miguel Beermen.

The Road Warriors gave up their 2016 first-round draft pick in exchange for the Beermen’s 2015 first-round rookie pick.

The negotiations are reportedly part of NLEX’s plan to build a formidable lineup in the coming years.

NLEX won six PBA D-League titles before entering the pro league.

According to the PBA website, the trades have been approved by the office of PBA Commissioner Chito Salud

Any local player will jump at an NBA offer.

As for Paul Lee, he has indeed worked hard to increase his value ......... however, PBA rules dictate that he receive only a certain maximum salary. That maximum salary has already been offered by ROS.

Like I said, Lee doesn't lack for exposure, since he is ROS' star player and leader - his GILAS inclusion is evidence enough of this.

So, the one obvious thing left, is the one thing that everyone know$ - except for Comm. Cheato Salud.  ;D

Number one was locked down ever since he declared for the draft - Pringle.

For #2, ROS has always declared that it wants a quality big man - which the draft doesn't have ........ if no trade is imminent, I'd take Banchero.

Banchero is a scoring PG, like Lee ....... ROS ownership also values the "pogi" boys (Tiu & Teng) on the team, using them to promote their paint business. Banchero would be a good fit either way.

Let's face it. Most of our young players dream of making it in the PBA not because they love the game but because of the financial benefits they could receive.

Pero, the signs and clues are all there ..... all monetary things being equal and others as well (playing time, team is a contender, etc), why would somebody like Devance & Lee demand they be traded to SMCorp?

ROS' Mondraon asked the same question that many had asked before  ..... " whats the difference between their max salary and the other teams max salary?"

Besides, that PBA annual salary cap will only allow only 3-4 max salaried players per team ....... so, assuming a superstar like Lee would transfer to an SMCorp/MVP team, how can that team add another max salary player to its already loaded roster?

Mga questions ito na alam nang lahat ang sagot, pwera si Comm. Cheato Salud.  ;D

Those under the table deals will never be disclosed and players will like to be part of an elite group.

Banchero would have been a great replacement for Lee ...... would've also made another poster boy for the company.

However, it's all Yeng Guiao ...... Guiao has always disliked players with "attitudes" - in recent history, Banchero has shown some rifts and contract disputes.

This might be the main reason why Guiao chose Alas over Banchero.

=========================================================================

For the millionth time, BARAKO makes a vomit-inducing trade ...... BARAKO trades a high-pick for retread players that played with them before & will probably wont get re-signed anyway.  ;D

Hindi pa din ba nakikita ni Comm. Cheato Salud ang pandaraya na ginagawa nang SMCorp at nang farm teams niya?  ;)

Post by: steelcrazy on Aug 24, 2014 at 08:15 PM
As I expected, ROS drafted Kevin Alas over Banchero but strange why San Miguel passed on Banchero and instead took Ronald Pascual.
Probably the stage is set for San Miguel to get Pringle via lopsided trade with Global Port or Paul Lee is coming to town.
Kevin Alas will be at home with ROS as he join fellow Letran Knight Raymond Almazan and they can form an excellent 1-2 punch for ROS.
Another is why Ginebra took Rodney Brondial over Jake Pascual but come to think of it Brondial has the charisma to take on Ginebra's commercials.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on Aug 24, 2014 at 08:35 PM
I like Brondial's heart when playing ..... but he'll likely be among MANY bigs who are too slow and limited to be given significant time in the pros.

Good for him if he ever makes a niche for himself for any PBA team.

==========================================================================

Ronald Pascual (over Banchero) appears to be new coach Leo Austria's decision ....... Austria is old school, likes solid and rugged defense.

Yup, Leo Austria rehired as their new head coach.

Purves has been demoted to an inactive consultant ..... or he might be dropped during this pre-season.

Ganyan kabilis at kakitid ang utak nang mga SMCorp bosses ...... mabuti na lang at humingi nang autonomy si Tim Cone when he took on the SMC head coaching job.

If San Miguel doesn't beef up at the front court, they wont stand a chance against teams like San Mig Coffee, Ginebra, TNT and ROS.

Should SMB fare miserably again, asahan na isang bata na naman ni Danding/RSA ang ilalagay as coach.

Brader, SAN MIGUEL BEER already has a frontline Fajardo (2014 MVP), Arwind Santos (2013 MVP), Maierhoffer, Kramer & Chua ........ sobra-sobra na dapat ito, for any team.

Ang problema nang SAN MIGUEL BEER, too many superstars, yet only a few (Mercado, Lutz & Fajardo) can create their own shot ...... very predictable - all they do is dump it to Fajardo the whole game ...... overall team defense fails down the stretch.

Fajardo is great at center but who's the reliever who can give their center position some quality minutes?
Kramer? Chua? I dont think so.
Arwin Santos at Power Forward? maybe yes but NO as he's more of a 3 than a 4.
Now who's Santos' reliever? Maierhoffer? He's a wingman not a power forward.

Of all 3 San Miguel group teams, the Beermen have the shallowest front court.

So far the San Miguel team i admired was that under Ato Agustin when they beat TNT.
Hubalde, Duncil, Yeo, Miranda, Santos, Ildefonso, Reyes played with a lot of heart and intensity during that championship run.

Hardly any PBA team plays big nowadays. Except for Thoss & Taulava, there's not much back-to-the-basket bigs anymore - and both Thoss & Taulava are on their last legs in the pros. 

For the loooong time that TnT reigned supreme, their only reliable big was an aged Ali Peek.

The elite teams SMC & ROS have bigs, but these teams rely mostly on player movement and smart passing, rather than post play.

===========================================================================

SMB has the MVP-award winners the past 2 seasons ...... one is still at his prime, while the other one will rule the paint for the next decade ..... Maierhoffer & Kramer are decent rebounding forwards that provide good minutes off the bench ..... Chua provides quality minutes as well. 

However, the difference with SMC & ROS, their bigs know and fulfill their roles superbly ...... their bigs know their sweet spots and their roles on offense - something, which cant be said of SMB and its limited playbook.

SMB has all the tools, it just needs a single coaching voice and a defined system to contend again.

Only the Jaworskis and Pacquiaos (from the list) can be considered as nepotism. The Loyzagas, Locsins and De Ocampos cannot be considered as nepotism since they did not have hiring or signing powers. They did not have the power to choose whom to get for the team. Merely playing for the same team does not make it nepotism.

I believe the Ato Agustin - Marvin Agustin case for Petron can be considered as nepotism. If assistant coach Alas of Alaska has any influence in getting or signing players for Alaska, then Alaska's drafting of the lesser known Junjun Alas may be considered nepotism. And perhaps the Pumarens, coach Pilo Pumaren, coach Derick Pumaren and Franz Pumaren all being under San Miguel can also be considered as nepotism. Dindo Pumaren was the only one who did not have direct ties with San Miguel. Also, then assistant coach Chot Reyes may have had a hand in Jun Reyes' stay in Alaska.

Post by: newwaveboy on Aug 27, 2014 at 02:08 AM
The cases of Dudut Jaworski, Harmon Codinera, Marc Agustin, Jai Reyes, Charles Waters & Jun Alas can be considered nepotism cases.

As for Rene Pacquiao, it's a clear case of nepotism, ignorance and good old "pakapalan-nang-mukha" all rolled into one.

PBA fans should be very thankful - at least, we didn't get Bobby Pacquiao as another PG and Mommy D as muse for KIA.

Harmon Codinera was a career benchwarmer in GINEBRA, ALASKA, etc when he was picked-up by PUREFOODS, on the prodding of star player Jerry Codinera.

I know this, because a close cousin of the Codinera's is a good friend of mine from way back.

I had ommited Norman Black and Chris Tan, since Tan (and a few other players) was being courted by Santa Lucia way before Black was hired ....... this was during the time when the MBA was beginning to show some cracks and players were sending feelers to the PBA. 

I actually have little issue with nepotism in the PBA - in the long history of the PBA, it happens quite rarely and there are far more serious problems that plague the PBA.

As long as the player is worthy of a spot (e.g. Tan), he is displacing no one ........ in the case of Dudut Jaworski, Charles Waters, Jai Reyes, etc - these guys were unworthy of roster spots.

In the case of Manny Pacquiao drafting Rene Pacquiao, it's a case of the totally unworthy drafting an unworthy one ....... like the blind leading the blind.  ;)

Let's face it. Most of our young players dream of making it in the PBA not because they love the game but because of the financial benefits they could receive. And when faced with choosing between principle and financial stability for the immediate family , what more the extended family, financial stability would win most of the time.

Pacquiao scores 1 pt in KIA loss to Blackwater
ABS-CBNnews.com
Posted at 10/04/2014 10:55 PM | Updated as of 10/04/2014 10:55 PM

MANILA – Manny Pacquiao and the KIA Sorento lost its pre-season joust against Blackwater Elite, 88-77, in the PBA Liga ng Bayan in Binan, Laguna on Saturday.

Pacquiao, the oldest rookie ever to play in the league, notched 1 point and 1 rebound in 10 minutes of play with KIA.

Blackwater’s Chris Timberlake and Sunday Salvacion took turns guarding the 8-division boxing champion, who took a break from training camp just to be with Sorento.

Pacquiao, who wants KIA to be a defense-oriented team, said his squad will need to do some improvements at the defensive end.

“Puwede namin mag-capitalize is yung defense namin, pero kanina, di pa namin na-execute yung depensa masyado na gusto namin,” Pacquiao said in Richard Dy’s report to Spin.ph.

Alex Nuyles and Salvacion led the way for Blackwater, scoring 18 and 15, respectively. Reil Cervantes topscored for KIA with 23 points, while Chad Alonzo had 10.

Pacquiao plans to be with KIA when it opens its 2014-2015 PBA campaign. KIA Sorento is scheduled to take on the Elite again on October 19.

“Lalaro ako sa opening para ma-inspire yung team ko,” he added.

No matter what the critics will say, Pacquiao will be the main attraction of the PBA this coming season no matter what the outcome of Kia games against other PBA teams.
There's is no doubt he's in just for the sake of advertisements and promotions of KIA cars in the Philippines and maybe in the world.

No matter what the critics will say, Pacquiao will be the main attraction of the PBA this coming season no matter what the outcome of Kia games against other PBA teams.
There's is no doubt he's in just for the sake of advertisements and promotions of KIA cars in the Philippines and maybe in the world.

I doubt Pacquiao is in the PBA just for the sake of advertising and promoting KIA cars. The man wants to play just like most everyone dreams of, or has dreamt of playing in the PBA.  Whether he has the talent or not to play the game professionally, he has the means to fulfill that dream.

Indeed, it's very clear to see that Pacman has that genuine dream to play professional basketball ........ however, so does tens of thousands of other more-deserving Filipinos.

It's just unfortunate that these others don't have the means to buy, este get a slot on a PBA team.

Pacquiao's legacy as a boxer has long been secured and cast in stone ....... however, everything else he does is completely "pakapalan nang mukha".  ;)

Another lopsided trade if Comm Salud approved this.  Looks like Blackwater is a farm team of MVP after all  ;D

Under the tweaked deal, Blackwater will kick off the movement by sending its 2015 first-round pick to Talk 'N Text for journeyman KG Canaleta. Blackwater will then ship Canaleta to NLEX for Alas, who will then be immediately shipped by the Dioceldo Sy-owned team to the Tropang Texters for its 2015 first-round pick and veteran forward Larry Rodriguez.

In short, Blackwater traded its 2015 (most probably higher) first round pick for TnT's (most probably lower) first round pick and Rodriguez, who they could have gotten from the dispersal draft.
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on Oct 09, 2014 at 07:11 PM
BLACKWATER's failed negotiations with dispersal top-pick Ildefonso, was probably the reason why they did this deal to get Rodriguez ....... Ildefonso wants max money despite being on his last legs as a player.

I myself have very serious doubts about Sy's financial capabilities to run a PBA team for the long haul - but its still way too early to tag this team a farm team for either MVP or SMCorp.

Iba din talaga ang media natin, sa sobrang daming grossly lopsided deals na ginawa at ginagawa nang SMCorp with AIR21 & BARAKO, not once akong nakabasa nang formal article claiming these teams to be SMCorp farm teams ....... pero, isang suspicious deal lang between MVP & a new team - farm team agad ang headline nang article.  ;)

The problem is all of these are very subjective. Is KG worth a 2015 first round draft pick?

Three rule changes the PBA should consider

1.    Edit the conduit system.
2.    Draft protection
3.    Strike off the obsolete Filipino-foreigner limitation
Title: Re: PBA Season 39
Post by: newwaveboy on Oct 10, 2014 at 08:23 PM
^ Proposals 1 and 2 can be summed up in four simple words "Remove All Farm Teams".

To be specific, remove AIR21 (done) and BARAKO BULL (a loooooooooong time coming).

As for the 3rd proposal, the Fil-Foreigner rule served its purpose well - back when there was a deluge of fake Fil-Ams in the PBA ....... actually, there are still a few very fake Fil-Foreigners still playing (ehem Asi, ehem Dorian).

However, since the number of teams have increased and indications are more will join soon (Hapee, SM, etc), then its probably time to review the rule.

“Let's get ready to rumble!”  :)

Buffer to watch PBA opening
http://philboxing.com/news/story-99759.html

Famous American ring announcer Michael Buffer is reportedly coming to the Philippines to watch the opening of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) on October 19 at the Philippine Arena.

Buffer is known for his already trademarked catchphrase, “Let's get ready to rumble!” and for pioneering a distinct announcing style in which he rolls certain letters and adds other inflections to a fighter's name,

The 70-year old Buffer is said to be excited about two things: the Philippine Arena and Manny Pacquiao.

The Philippine Arena is the Guinness World Record-setter for the largest mixed-use indoor theater. It can sit 55,000, has a basketball coliseum, a 20,000-seater football and track stadium, a sports center, an indoor aquatic and tennis center, a hotel and a 600-bed hospital.

Buffer is also looking forward to watch eight-division world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao play for newcomer Kia Motors. Buffer has been the ring announcer in several of the Pacman’s fights. He has been announcing all boxing matches promoted by Bob Arums Top Rank on ESPN since 1983.

“We invited him personally to my PBA debut. We didn’t get his confirmation yet. But we are preparing a huge impact entertainment on October 19,” said Pacquiao, who is the playing coach of Kia.

Jake Joson, one of the managers of Pacquiao, has prepared a blazing entertainment introduction for the Kia team. Kia hired internationally-acclaimed Director Gorio Vicuna to direct the event.

“Our audio visual presentation will be a hit. It is similar with Chicago Bulls’ and Michael Jordan’s AVPs,” added the excited Pacquiao.

The PBA will have the grandest opening ever this coming Sunday Oct 19 2014 at the Philippine Arena.
The excitement is in the air with Pacquiao parading, playing and endorsing for KIA, I'm sure not only the entire country but the world will also be excited to witness it online.
Btw, will KIA be playing on opening day? Sayang naman if hindi.
Any news how many games will be played after the opening ceremony?

^ Sayang pala ang assist, hehe.

What's funny is, Pacquiao is the smallest on his team, yet he plays SG ....... choosing to have another guard bring down the ball - parang gusto yata niya gayahin si Dudut na taga-tira lang at hindi nagagalaw ang buhok.  ;D
