Commissioner Willie Marcial said games will be played from Tuesday to Sunday, with Monday serving as rest day.

Before, the game would start at Wednesday, then Friday to Sunday. Now, there's only one day off which is Monday, so we will be seeing more action and more fun with betting. How do you like this news?

As for Brownlee, things might be different since C. Stand is no longer around, and they've brought in a younger replacement. It will be interesting to see if the chemistry they've built before can continue to work with some of the new guys.
Brownlee was already with the team even before C. Stand was signed by Ginebra. However, the chemistry was already there since Brownlee and C. Stand had been teammates before on the Alab Pilipinas team-not sure if that team still exists now. Anyway, let's see how Brownlee will compete against the old and new imports, but I'm sure chemistry won't be a problem as Brownlee has proven to be a good team player, especially since he won a championship with a new team in Indonesia.

I do agree with you mate that Brownlee is a guy who jells quickly to his team mates whether they are new to the team or been there for a while.

Let's talk about the Meralco Bolts who won the championship on the All-Filipino Cup which have Durham as their import. I think they had a great chance this coming conference since Durham is a strong import as well with their core players still intact.

Good point. I remember now that they were teammates before, so it wasn’t hard for them to play together. Well, they’ve parted ways now, so hopefully, the new players like Holt and the others will follow the game plan. They should consider Brownlee as their main man since he can bring a lot to the team, including leading them to a championship and winning the series.

Another interesting read.


JUSTIN Brownlee may have won all three championship encounters with Allen Durham, but their names are going to be mentioned in the same breath.

While Brownlee is one of the two winningest imports ever to play in the PBA with six championships, an honor he shares with another great import, Sean Chambers, Durham is considered as one of the best reinforcements who have yet to win a title in Asia's pioneering professional league.

Durham has been named Best Import three times during his stints with the Meralco Bolts and now he's returning for another tour of duty, hoping to finally win that elusive crown.

But one of the things he looks forward to is the opportunity to reconnect and renew his old rivalry with Brownlee.

"We are going to be connected," said Durham. "When you say one person's name, the other one is going to be mentioned. You want to play against the best and I'm excited to get that opportunity again."

The Bolts won the championship last season, so they should definitely be the team to beat, especially with Durham back on the roster. Even though there's a new coach with a potentially different style from Coach Norman Black, the current approach seems effective, as it brought them their first championship. Hopefully, Durham can still blend well with the familiar faces on the team.

As for Brownlee, things might be different since C. Stand is no longer around, and they've brought in a younger replacement. It will be interesting to see if the chemistry they've built before can continue to work with some of the new guys.

Will Terrafirma become a championship contender?

 

JUAMI Tiongson welcomes the arrival of Christian Standhardinger and Stanley Pringle at Terrafirma as the two players reinforced two spots which he believes are crucial in the Dyip's campaign in the PBA Season 49.

Of course, the All-Star guard was disheartened to see former teammates Isaac Go and Stephen Holt go away as part of the trade to acquire Standhardinger and Pringle with Barangay Ginebra.

Holt and Go after all, were major pieces of the Dyip's core that reached the playoffs for the first time in eight years last season during the Philippine Cup where they eventually lost to top seed San Miguel in their knockout quarterfinals duel.

But Tiongson said getting Standhardinger and Pringle in return is nonetheless, primary catches for Terrafirma as well.

The 33-year-old product of Ateneo sees the 6-foot-8 Standhardinger making a big difference as far as post plays are concerned for the Dyip.

C. Stand looks great in Terrafirma uniform. And it's good for C. Stand as he'll be in the starting 5 again and will definitely gain more minutes. I'm hoping this team will be more competitive as they have a talented point guard which is also a great 3 point shooter, so the lenght of C. Stand and his dominance inside is going to be a big factor for their success.

Hopefully they'll manage to bring something Tiongson's needs to maximize the help of CStand if they blend like the connection of CStand and TR7 way back with SMB they can create that big threat of a -12 punch, knowing CStand who loves doing his usual offensive tactics, just need to work harder as they going to face stronger opponents, Good to know that Terrafima might have that chance again to continue playing decently.

I'm just wondering why the website still doesn't have updated schedules of the games when they're reportedly set to commence on the 18th of this month.

The 2024–25 PBA season, also referred to as PBA season 49, will be the 49th season of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). The season will begin in August 18, 2024 and will conclude sometime in 2025.

Do you guys feel the excitement already? We'll be back to betting in less than two weeks, so I'm sure we'll be busy again. For me, this is the only league I'm betting on since the NBA is in its (off)season, so I have no choice even if the games aren't on a daily basis.

Which team do you think will win the championship with the current imports on the list?

Exposures that can be use by both sides, for PBA it's a good fan base attractions, as per politicians sadly to say that there are voters who loves those kinds of strategy, bringing celebrities and taking the vote out from those viewers who will support the event.

The problem is that it seems they are protecting their TV network and want us to watch on TV rather than through online streaming. Why do I say that? It's very obvious—just look at their streaming; it's delayed.

Meanwhile, another big achievement for Justin Brownlee here.

Brownlee wins title anew, this time with Indonesian squad

Quote
Justin Brownlee weaved his magic anew following a championship run with the Pelita Jaya in the Indonesia Basketball League over the weekend at the Indomilk Arena.

A six-time champion and three-time Best Import awardee with mother team Barangay Ginebra in the PBA, Brownlee added the IBL title to his resume by anchoring Pelita Jaya to a 73-65 win in the winner-take-all Game 3.

Yup, another title added to his resume, what a great player and after that title, he will be going back and will begin his practice or maybe Gin kings will provide decent time for him to relax and enjoy the celebration, but for sure he will be playing for the Gin kings and will start also practicing for team Gilas.

Let's just wait for the update for sure Gin kings will provide something good about his arrival, congrats kabayang JBL!

For me, to bring back the fans to watch the PBA they should adapt the style of MBA which is the home and away format so that those in the province will have a chance to watch the games live in person. They can't expect the same individuals watching games of the PBA on the same venue. Adding more teams will also help but not teams that will become farm teams for the big companies, independent teams that could stand on its own and compete with the teams of SMB and MVP.

That's a good idea, as nowadays, people are more interested in watching basketball. There's no problem with broadcasting the game since they have the TV station owned by the MP group, or if they don't use it, they can just do live streaming through facebook and youtube, which is less costly. What they have to ensure is the venue, something that is secure and convenient for the players. They need to allocate a budget for that and maybe seek help from the local government for additional funding. It's really possible if they consider that idea, but if not, it will remain in the same format.

Yeah right, and since that the timing is perfect knowing how politics runs in our country if they will going to adopt that same kind of formatting, they can easily coordinate the schedule from the town governors or mayors as they can easily get an access to the place, they can earn thru sporsoships or with the local government itself  who wanted to bring entertainment to their fellowmen.
I'm sure they are good at that, as they handle some politics in the PBA as well. However, thinking about it is not enough; if no action is taken, it will still be useless. As fans, all we can do is voice our suggestions to help make the league more interesting to watch, but unfortunately, it's not as engaging anymore. It's a sad truth.

It's tough to compete if JBL will be consider as naturalized player who can play inside PBA that will let him play as normal pinoy player, same with that sentiment it will going to be a 2 import team and with the skills and talent of JBL together with the whole squad of the Gin kings, it will be heavy favorite and will have that good dominance as the opposing team will compete against two imports, but for sure JBL will only play as import and nothing else.
That would not save the PBA. As they posted before, they want to be the best in Asia, so they have to make decisions that will excite the fans, not decisions that will lead to fans criticizing them for just making a few teams better while the others are trash. What they need to do is make it a balanced league, and that can only be achieved if they welcome more teams to participate and eliminate farm teams. Farm teams and sister teams make the PBA boring. A drastic change is necessary, and they have to act on it very soon while they still have fans following them.

I agree, though in terms of fans they can attract some as there's still loyal fans of Gin kings but overall it's better to have adjustments that will benefits everyone and not just some who already got a huge advantage, if they wanted to be recognize as in Asia they need to bring real competitions, I mean teams that capable in developing talents and not just SMC and MVP who can acquire and spend money for players who got the potentials.

Adding more teams who are also capable to pay those big companies who can bring new sets of talents or a combinations which the owners can really in-line with Mon and Boss Manny.

JB shouldn't be an import anymore, he's naturalized already right? I don't know how the rules will play for PBA but if someone has played for the national team, he should get that naturalized treatment and won't be an import anymore. Anyway, he's the one that makes the games exciting due to his contributions to the national team.

I think that would create a big difference for other teams as JB is just too good. If they consider him a local, they can add an import, making them unbeatable. I think they understand the situation, and it's not fun if Ginebra will easily dominate because they have an import besides Brownlee. The list is already official, so we have to stick with that. After all, the PBA is for entertainment, and seeing one team dominate the others is not entertaining anymore.

It's like having double imports, so no team could match them unless they also have 2 imports, which isn't allowed. They should not use technicalities here to take advantage. One import per team should be the rule, and despite Brownlee being a naturalized player, he is still considered an import. The season will resume soon, and I'm sure you guys are already anticipating a good start as normally, during the early season, there are lots of upsets that happen.

Yes, the list is already official and true to that they will become a formidable team if JB becomes a local since he's really is now plus with another import that the Ginebra will get. Anyway, that's true that PBA is for entertainment and SMC teams are just doing it for the sake of the fans as RSA said that many will get mad against them if they will halt the teams that are part of the PBA.

Do you guys have an idea when the PBA will resume? It was reported it will be this month, but no exact date yet.
I'm not sure about that but what I've read somewhere around August 18, 2024.

It's good to know that we have a definite date for the opening of the Governor's cup in the PBA.
That's what I have read but hopefully that's the date that everyone is waiting for.

For those who have no idea on who will be the imports this coming Governor's cup, please see below and let me know your assessments on each import. Justine Brownlee and Durham are the only imports i have know on this list.
