Fajardo delivered a phenomenal performance, scoring 40 points and securing 20 rebounds, preventing a near disaster against Converge. However, they need to elevate their game as Ginebra poses a different challenge in the semi-finals.
That kind of score is reallt an mvp material, if SMB have a chance for finals, I think Fajardo will be named as MVP again. SMB line up is kinda powerhouse I just dont like some of their players who are always into trouble and so boastful lile Terrence romeo and Jericho Cruz. They got their fair issues on some players of Converge like Stockton and Cabagnot.
They’ll definitely face a tougher opponent in the next series, and with their import not being as impressive, JMF is taking on most of the load. It could turn into a long series, but I think Ginebra has the edge since JMF might wear down if he continues carrying his team.

When it comes to the MVP, JMF is the clear choice. The import competition is separate, so Brownlee and JMF should win different awards. It’s going to be exciting as the semis begin tomorrow!
I'm really surprised how Converge was able to win 2 straight games and made a do-or-die game because San Miguel Beermen was able to win it on their 3rd game, but they still lost 2 games afterward. A lot of people lost and a lot of people lost a lot of money because of extremely high odds, no one expected Converge will able to win 2 games against top team San Miguel Beermen.
Stockton and Cabagnot played well, sad for them they lost.

Yeah they played well but both of them are also the last players who made that big mistake, a crucial error from the inbound pass of Stockton to Cabagnot, that's something huge I don't know if that's a honest mistake or just part of the drama hahaha, kidding aside, lots of gamblers lost their money for sure as most of them favor SMB from that 2 stright loses, and the last one for sure there are gamblers who bet early and take that handicap if I remember it right that's something like -8.5.

Moving forward, Gin kings against SMB a competition against JMF and JBL the one that performs well will influence the whole squad, that's how important these two stars for both teams.

Those two are good so I could say that even one of them becomes MVP they well deserved it especially foe JMF, its so rare to see a bigman with a good shooting outside considering his specialty is inside the paints points.
JMF has recently improved his shooting, and he just keeps getting better despite his age. His dominance is still clear. When JMF is healthy, he’s a huge asset to the team. But Ginebra, man... this team is just tough as long as Brownlee is healthy too.

It’s really hard to predict which team will come out on top in their series.
Yeah their good they are my idols durung collegiate season on UAAP both got some moves and destined to be on PBA however their playing style is likely not like by some of their opponents due to taunting and undergound tactics.

That’s their weakness, and it could definitely cost them in a close game. Luckily, when Romeo got called for that F1 on their game 5 vs Converge, Stockton missed all three of his free throws.

Terrence Romeo and Jericho Cruz have a playing style that tends to get under their opponents’ skin. While some may find it boastful, that’s just how they play, and I don’t like it either. I believe this will be TR7’s last season with the Beermen, as there are rumors he will be traded to another team.

It’s a bit monotonous seeing June Mar Fajardo consistently winning the MVP, but no one in this era can stop him, not even Belga. If the SMB Beermen secure a spot in the finals this conference, I believe Fajardo will once again receive the MVP award.

Terrence Romeo and Jericho Cruz have a playing style that tends to get under their opponents’ skin. While some may find it boastful, that’s just how they play, and I don’t like it either.

Best of 7--it’s going to be a great matchup in the semis for sure!

SMB vs. Ginebra will be interesting since both are under the SMB umbrella. A martingale strategy might be solid for this series since it’s likely to be closely contested. I don't see Ginebra sweeping SMB, and if SMB becomes the underdog, that's even better since Ginebra is bound to be the public favorite.

As for TNT vs. ROS, it’s a tough call. I’d lean toward TNT as well--they have the talent, and now that they're healthy, they’re a strong contender. RHJ seems unstoppable, while Fuller might struggle against TNT’s big men, and even someone like Williams could effectively limit Fuller’s impact.

Let's move on to the semi-finals series.

Here's the schedule for the best of seven semi-finals with
TNT vs RainOrShine and Ginbebra vs San Miguel Beermen.

I'm excited for the bookies to be available, right now, I still can't see some matches available in popular crypto betting platforms.



Sure spot for another RSA team, while MVP will need to win against ROS which will surely gives them a hard time, maybe it's time for coach yeng to be back in the finals and maybe finally a team outside MVP and SMC will win this season, still far but we never know what might be the outcome of those two semifinals games, both Gin kings and SMB are tough but if ever ROS manage to move forward it will bring more fans interest of they'll gaoing to compete against the Gin kings..

That -8.5 spread may seem high, but I still think it was the right pick. GL!

It was definitely a high spread, and a lot of bettors took a hit in this game. Converge was in control for most of it, but JMF put on a heroic performance to carry SMB to victory. Unfortunately, it was only a 4-point win, and I also lost my live bet on SMB at -4.5. Losing by just 0.5 makes it sting even more!

Anyway, it's over, so let's move on to the semi finals that will start in October 9.

Fajardo delivered a phenomenal performance, scoring 40 points and securing 20 rebounds, preventing a near disaster against Converge. However, they need to elevate their game as Ginebra poses a different challenge in the semi-finals.
For that matchup, I’d go with Ginebra as well. I don’t see anyone capable of stopping Brownlee, and their locals are in good form. It seems like CJ isn't playing at full strength, possibly dealing with an injury, so that gives a solid opportunity to bet on the more proven team, Ginebra. While Japeth might not fully match up against Fajardo, the edge in coaching definitely favors Ginebra.

One thing i observed in this series, if you put your bet on Converge with the spread, you always win as SMB didn't cover the spread in all their three wins.
That's what I noticed too.. easy money for converge on that series.

Yeah right, JMF the missing guy finally show up during game 5 it was a intense game as there are many dramas and I'm pretty sure fans who place their early bets for SMB's handicap dissapointed with how the team performs in the early quarters of the game, they are being down most of the quarters.

It was the last quarter that they finally overrun Converge after that another drama that happens, and like what you said it's done and lets move forward and see who's going to win this upcoming semis.

I don't think we'll see much of the bench in this game, as it's the last of the series, so the starters will likely get heavy minutes. JMF should be their main option to draw the defense inside and open up SMB's three-point shooting. It’s Marcio’s moment to shine—he needs to hit those shots from the outside. Starting strong is key, but they need to maintain that intensity throughout, especially in the second half, since they’ve been outplayed in that stretch in the last two games. Expect a very physical match, with SMB coming off two losses; they’ll definitely find ways to shut down Converge’s offense, particularly from the perimeter.

As for the point spread, with SMB at -8.5, it might be worth the risk. Smiley

SMB didn't have the best start, falling behind by double digits in the first quarter, but they’re gradually clawing their way back. It’s still early in the 2nd quarter, and Converge is putting up a real fight, playing as if they’re the stronger team. That -8.5 spread may seem high, but I still think it was the right pick. GL!

And hoping coach Gallant will use Teng, TR7 and the rest who can still contribute they are deep with role and star players who can are just sharing with a little time sitting in their bench.

Funny to see that there's some drama inside SMB's bench not sure what happened with coach Leo and Ross it might affect them mentally, maybe coach Leo is nit happy with how the players playing the game, not sure why JMF is not taking shots even the big advantage still on him, let see if what adjustments they'll be going to execute its a do or die  now for them and we never know if what will happen next.
I didn't expect this series to be as thrilling as it is now... 2-2, and the next game is a do-or-die! The same key players stepped up for Converge in the last quarter - Santos was on fire again with his outside shooting, and SMB couldn't find a way to stop him. It seems like they really lacked defense and might have underestimated Converge. Plus, it feels like their import isn't the best fit, focusing mostly on inside offense, which should be JMF's role. SMB could benefit from an import with strong outside shooting to space the floor, someone like JB.

I like to point that too, with the way the import played even he's a good scoring machine that position supposedly the best advantage for JMF, with the way they are executing their offense mostly the ball keeps in the hands of their import, hopefully they'll manage to adjust and make things right.

Hopefully they will not repeat that same mistake and lose that huge lead and allow converge to extend the series,,...
Unfortunately, they made the same mistake again, and now the series is tied. In this series I thought SMB would easily dominate, but that didn't happened. I still need to watch the game highlights 'cause I'm surprised how they lost last night. That big 3rd quarter run by Converge was solid; last time it was in the 4th, now it's the 3rd quarter. Even if they win this one, I think they'll still lose to Ginebra on their next match up or in the finals.

This is the quarter scoring of the game.

SMB         29 - 26 - 24 - 21
Converge  31 - 20 - 37 - 26
