Can Meralco upset TNT? It's already guaranteed that it's going to be MVP vs. Cojuangco in the finals, but for TNT this season, I think they are really a very good team. They have great chemistry, and everyone plays well when on the floor, making them a hard team to beat.

It's the offense of TNT vs. the defense of Meralco. If Meralco can dictate the tempo, then we might see an upset.
Watching the game right TNT with a huge lead, too bad for Meralco because of too many turnovers and missed shots.
TNT is pretty dominant on this game, I'm expecting a close game here unfortunately its not looking good for Meralco. Too bad I placed a bet to Meralco going against the odds, well this is just a game 1 and Meralco have to do some magic here so they can at least have a win against TNT.
That's a big lead and a big statement from TNT, 30points lead in first game is something  you should not forget.
TNT is the top team for a reason and going against the odds is very risky, better luck next time mate and see if Meralco still have the chance to get a win here but I think TNT will not give it easily. If ever, TNT vs GINEBRA in the finals will be a blockbuster and this is what I'm looking forward to.
Enough of Meralco Vs. Ginebra series. I want to see a different team/s playing in the PBA Finals. We want to see other teams having an opportunity playing in the PBA Finals. If Ginebra will go to PBA Finals again (like always as long as there's an import), I want TNT to be their opponent.

That first game between the 2 has been a one-sided match I should say. A dominating win for the TNT. I don't think Meralco have the pieces to defeat TNT right now. I mean they're a star-studded team as well like SMB or Ginebra out there, so I predict that TNT will win on this series in 4 games. It was a collective effort for the TNT as 5 players scored in double digits lead by their import who has 22 points. Their import, Hollis-Jefferson really isn't a good three-point shooter as he isn't attempting that much, but he's a great one in terms of perimeter shooting.

Ginebra won by 9 points, and that’s a good win for the first game. Yes, this will be a long series because they wanted that way and fans will surely love that to see the good teams getting neck and neck to advance in the finals. We are now in the exciting match up between Meralco and TNT. Obviously TNT is the favorite here since they ended the elimination at the top seed, this will be a big challenge for Meralco.

SMB had a huge comeback to tie the game, but in the end, they still fell short. It was a good win by Ginebra, who doesn't solely rely on their import, making them a very dangerous team. Additionally, Malonzo showed a lot of highlights in the game, which ignited the fans.

It looks like it is going to be an easy win for Barangay Ginebra. It is the second quarter, and they are already up by 12 points. Hopefully they will be able to keep this momentum to the final quarter.


Taking action on the second game today, Meralco Bolts vs TNT. Though the odds are not that so good, I think it will be an easy win for the top-seeded team.


As expected with Ginebra, they are still playing great going into the 2nd half. Its not a big lead though, SMB can still have a comeback here.
Second match are more exciting, let's see if that odds will tell the right call since Meralco is also a great team going into the semis.
TNT might be on top but its not a safe place for them to relax, have to bet against the odds and support Meralco here. Cheesy

Ginebra -2 and over 215.5. I think this is a good bet, considering it's the first game and, if I recall correctly, the team that wins game 1 wins the series most of the time. I also bet on the over because I'm sure it's going to be a close game, and since both teams love to shoot from outside and drive the ball, they could easily get into foul trouble while also scoring points from the outside, so it will likely result in going over the point total.
It's easy to take advantage of the odds and make easy money. In Game 1 bet on Ginebra, they are favored by -2 points, and if they lose, you can simply double down in Game 2. There's no way Ginebra will lose twice, and if there is any suspicion of rigging, the referees will likely help them to win by a comfortable margin. That's why I believe it's "easy".
Right now, my bet is looking good as Ginebra is already leading by 15 points. If they continue to play with that great defense, I must say I have an easy win. My total bet on over is also looking good since it's already over 222.5 live. Anyway, the game is not over yet, so hopefully, I'll have a great start today.

The Ginebra vs. SMB game is now live on SmartSports. They don't usually stream the first game, but this time they are broadcasting it live. Maybe they have changed their policy and will now show live games for all matches starting today. Unfortunately, this live game is still considered a delayed telecast. Therefore, try not to look at the scoreboards to avoid spoiling the fun.

What do you think will be the impact on the Ginebra Kings now that LA Tenorio is not in the semi-finals?

I recall that LA Tenorio had a huge contribution to their past success because of his ability as a good floor general and his ability to make their system better. Now, without a clutch point guard to lead the team, they may face challenges.

Tomorrow will be the start of the best-of-five series of Ginebra against SMB. I have no idea about the odds yet as they are not available in my sportsbook. However, I am guessing that Ginebra will be the favorites, but only slightly in my opinion.

Tenorio is one of the best point guards for me, aside from Jimmy alapag. He does his 3point shots at the best times or at most needed time. Tho this is not the first time that he's not in the game, I think Ginebra will be doing just fine because Tenorio will still be part of the coaching staff while he's still recovering.

Tho I'm more of a Magnolia fan  I can say that betting in Ginebra is still a good choice. I root for the Gins now since Mags isnt in the semis. It will be a tight game between Ginebra and SMB but I trust the former to win. Their players synchronize so well on the court, not mentioning that their head coach now is Tim cone. And I love Tim Cone ever since in San Mig. Faves really has a huge contributions in betting. It's a matter of Meralco vs. Ginebra in the finals for me.

There's actually a group about Al's bashers if you've got some time to search about them. It's "Paliga ni Boss Al". Something like that.
Too much hate was on him and can't blame those bashers but they're all ignored by Al so, no matter what bashing he gets. They can never get to his status of being successful with so many championships being the governor/manager of Ginebra.

Who might taught that the former Stag headcoach wayback when PBL still exist will now own the PBA "Paliga ni Boss Al" hahaha, after earning the position being the governor of the Brgy, now he's taking control behind the league. Wereally can't tell how future will be when you are continue doing your best and loving the passion inside you.

I mean, coach Al's influence now is deep behind comm. Marcial and I'm not going to be surprised if in some few more years he will be taken Gilas away from MVP's heavy favorite super coach Chot  Tongue Roll Eyes.. ehehehe
Yeah, his connection and influence to the league are unquestionable but certainly too big. But with the control of Gilas, it's for sure that there's a big chunk of money why it is on the possession of MVP company and SBP is the one who manages it.
Anyway, I hope that they do embrace what the other leagues are being pursued like having two imports per team and we're seeing how the teams in the overseas league have improved the playstyle of it and that's what Coach Tab Baldwin is talking about. It's just all about the embracement of the new playing styles and rules of the league.

Commissioner Willie Marcial is putting us viewers into a simulation where in the end, it will be SMC Vs. MVP. Kidding. It just went into my mind while sharing my opinion.  Grin Grin
Nothing new, don't forget the boss Al as well.  Tongue
Ohhh I thought nobody can get what I said regarding that. Cheesy
Anyway, it's just a joke coming from me, but to add to what you said, I also saw a Facebook comment regarding the real meaning of PBA. It wasn't Philippine Basketball Association, but it's "Pa-Basketball ni AL". Grin

Moving on to the Magnolia vs. Meralco game, both teams have put up a good fight so far, and the game has been characterized by its physicality. While Magnolia is favored to win, I believe that Meralco has a chance to pull off an upset if they maintain their solid defense in the second half.

Based on what I see on the screen, the matchup between Meralco Boltz and Magnolia looks exciting as either team could win. The Meralco Boltz have a twice-to-beat advantage, so Magnolia needs to win this game if they want to advance to the exciting part of the matchup.

The game is currently in a run, with Magnolia leading by double digits and now it's back to a single-digit lead.

All this while i thought that this is a series, i mean this matchup between Magnolia and Meralco is a best-of-three series.

With 1 minute left in the game and Magnolia leading by 7 points (96-89), this is money in the bag for Magnolia and we will be seeing a game 2 on Friday. Too many offensive rebounds for Magnolia when the score was tied 88-all which proved to be costly for the Bolts but can't blame them anyway as Hester is a monster rebounder.

edit:
Wow, Aaron Black has sent this game into overtime and now the Bolts have the chance to oust the Hotshots tonight.

Things changed after that OT. I'm sure Magnolia is regretting the outcome of the game. They could have won, but due to their careless execution, Meralco was able to come back and even bring the game into OT. AB had a big shot, and in the OT, Meralco was the one who was willing to eliminate Magnolia.

There's no Game 2 or Game 3 between Ginebra and NLEX as the PBA is now in the Semi-Finals. What you see on the website, or I don't know where you did see it, is not updated. Always refer to the news and not to the image bracket there.

The confusion arises from the lack of updated information. It was made clear from the very beginning that the top 4 teams would have a twice-to-beat advantage, and since none of the teams ranked below the top 4 have won their games, there will be no game 2 for any of the matchups.

Tomorrow, the real battle will begin as we enter the semifinals with two exciting matchups: SMB vs. Ginebra and TNT vs. Meralco. Personally, I have a feeling that Meralco will win their series, although it's obvious that the Gin Kings will prevail in the other matchup.

Meralco vs TNT now are more interesting to watch, this best of 5 series will be wild for sure.
I'll bet on this for Meralco though TNT really have a great run this conference but I think Meralco will be more eager to bounce back ang get the chance to be back on the finals. Hopefully I can watch the live game as well to feel the excitement on court, looking forward for this game. SMB vs Ginebra are quiet boring to me, I know rumors will be made for the result of this match.
Well, kind of interesting, but it would be more interesting if it will be SMC Vs. MVP in the Semi-Finals. Instead, they gave as a 2 best of 5 series where SMC and MVP will fight with one another to secure a spot in the PBA Finals. Who will be happy watching that? Maybe those Ginebra fans will be happy, but me as a PBA fan, I might not watch the whole Semi-Finals and will skip to the PBA Finals TBH.

You will bet on the Bolts with this one. It's a good option to bet knowing that they are playing well in their last games, but I don't think that TNT will just turn their 10-1 record into waste, and because of that, I will choose them to be the victory of this series. I've had enough of Meralco Vs. Ginebra series already, and I want other teams matching up together in the PBA Finals. I mean TBH, I would rather see Ginebra Vs. TNT on the PBA Finals because the Bolts always lose when they face Ginebra in the Finals. Anyway, I respect your opinion. Smiley
