Just still lingering in my ears, Cagulangan

for the win!! Grin

He really made the difference, his shot was cold blooded, and I like the UP in that game because they were so aggressive, they are getting the ball and they don't mind playing against a heavy favored Ateneo. And for the record, it's the first time that coach Tab was beaten by a Filipino coach in the Finals.

This might not be related to PBA but it's still basketball in the country. UP became the champion on this recent UAAP season 84.
After 34 years, they've became a champion again. Are there people here who have been tuning in on this league as well? I've just seen it on my feed so I've thought of sharing it here since it's also a league and basketball.

I'm watching it, mate. Not a fan of either UP or Ateneo but I really like the former to win the championship. Ateneo is full of good and spectacular players from their coaching staff to players that's why for a change, I really like UP to advance.

Actually, it's related to PBA since players from these universities are bound to end up signing as a PBA draftee.

But there are reports released recently that some expected prospects skip the PBA Draftee as those received offers from overseas to play.

Ateneo have everything in terms of what the team needs, though they are still the favorite to win this year's title but upset

take place almost identical when UP beats them from the regular season and breaks the winning streak of Ateneo. It's been 36 long years

before The Unibersidad ng Pilipinas win the title, perfect timing to bring the emotions high. Just still lingering in my ears, Cagulangan

for the win!! Grin

That was an exciting game to watch but unfortunately, my favorite bookies did not cover the betting of the championship games.

I'm not really a fan of UAAP and like you, the news regarding it just passed in my social media newsfeed, and just curious also some of my colleagues at work are betting on that games offline. Could have won big if I'm a fan of UP since here in my place they are a huge underdog hehe.

Anyways, congrats to UP and hope they can do it back to back even without the backing of the rich sponsors hehe.

I watched the few games and I can really say that UP made a difference this season, they are composed of good players and even the departure of some of their key players this season, I’m pretty sure they can defend this title.

Well, some UP players are already graduate and might join PBA as well sooner or later. Rivero is already graduate, I wonder if he’s included in the recent draft and join PBA right away.

Actually, php 420k is very low compared to what Greg could earn if he plays abroad. And considering the status of NP in the PBA, they are not a championship team so Greg would not be receiving bonuses unlike other teams like Ginebra, TNT, Magnolia or SMB who have a decent chance of winning a championship.

If he can get other offer outside the country, then it's good for him, he's not tied to any obligation here and he can simply packed his bag and fly to whatever destination the offer can be, but, there's no update yet if someone from oversea who wanted his service, he's stuck within the league and the max offer a player can earn here is 420k that is what the league rules.

Those important things that you mentioned about bonuses are things that Gregg enjoyed when he still playing at Ginebra, perks that really give him additional bonuses in which he can't have while wearing NP's uniform.

The way I saw it, Greg Slaughter would be okay if he received that 420K max contract that the NorthPort team has said they offer to him but seeing in one article that what he received is far less from what is stipulated on the contract so someone must be lying here and i think there are two documents that Greg must have signed hehe. Check this article and see if you believe in this.

Two days ago, free agent Greg Slaughter broke that unwritten code by asserting via a comment on a SPIN.ph story that the "max offer" of P420,000 a month which he supposedly demanded was "not even close to what NorthPort was already paying me."

I hope Greg will be able to find a team to sign him as he is fun to watch, and the North Port have really improved with Greg playing as the center. Due to the inflation now, I think the max salary of a player has to be reviewed already as I think it has not increased for many years already.

But does he have an offer abroad already?
If not, then he should not ask more than the maximum the PBA could give, otherwise, a team has no choice but not to sign him.
We all know he is good but no team would violate the rules and face the consequences afterwards.

That's right, NP players won't be receiving bonuses like players in Ginebra, TNT, and other good teams because NP does not usually go to the finals, in short, they are not a championship team.

Here's the latest story about the Slaughter-NorthPort drama:

NorthPort maximum offer to Slaughter submitted to PBA, says Marcial

I will highlight some of the notable statements from the article:

- PBA commissioner Willie Marcial bared on Friday that a multi-year NorthPort offer for Greg Slaughter that was submitted to the league office contained renumeration to the tune of the maximum P420,000 a month.

- Gregg talked to the Northport team manager about a contract extension in January. The manager said that they will get back to him but never heard back.

- NorthPort team manager responded that a contract offer was emailed and sent to Slaughter via courier on January 29. Tan also sent screen shots of the two communications as proof. Tan also claimed Slaughter demanded the 'highest PBA salary' which he said was beyond the league maximum of P420,000 a month.

- Slaughter said the NorthPort offer was only meant to keep the franchise's signing rights on the restricted free agent and the renumeration was "less than half of what Greg is currently being paid by NorthPort.

Let's wait for the next chapter of this event. There is clearly a misunderstanding here.

If I read it right from social media, NP negotiates with Greg offering him a max contract, but Gregg is asking for something above from that max contract, something that will be discussed behind the door. NP is willing to give him what the association is allowing, but not the perks that Gregg is looking. That's why he didn't sign it,

Without an official statement from NorthPort that was all lies.

Greg Slaughter already debunked that story and shared his own. We don't really know what's happening behind the doors as there's an agreement that Greg can't go to other teams that's why Converge didn't consider entering the situation to try getting Greg.

It's good that we drama to follow in PBA. Wink

Greg can bring his talent abroad, so probably the reason why he is asking for a maximum that is higher than what NP can give is that he has an option to play abroad, or probably other teams could be interested with him. Actually, as of now, I think Greg now is a better player compared to JMF.

I'm not sure who's telling the truth here, but seems it's Gregg or his agent has some issues. If he's aiming for a better deal, he can try playing outside,

not sure though if space for a big fellow like him is far more important since teams are more likely to pay big players who can dominate and help them inside the paint something that other raises can provide and are more valuable for contracts to help the team.

Greg seemed to value himself so high, that he is negotiating like the team could not resist him. Well, NP is not a big market in the PBA, he should have ask the SMB or TNT, maybe he will get the offer. What if the TNT will sign him? I think TNT would be able to match the SMB and BGSM, and the next season will be more exciting.

Another issue with Greg's contract, if I remember it right he post something from the social media site that he haven't got any deal from his team (NP) from that post, he mentioned that things seems to be a repeated scenario with his former team (Ginebra) he's still willing to his fate and hoping that he will have another chance to play to whichever team that will sign him up, he will continue to focus in improving his game and continue to learn more in his basketball skills.

Let's wait for further updates about Greg, but Converge might be a good place for him if ever NP failed to sign him back.

I'm starting to believe that this Greg Slaughter got some attitude. How can NorthPort not contacted this guy as they really wanted a man to man the middle for them so for me NorthPort is the one that is telling the truth.

NorthPort has said that Greg Slaughter is asking more than the maximum but as we all knew that NorthPort that bog compared to SMB or MVP companies so this whole scenario might be leading to a trade so that NorthPort can get value from Slaughter. They have the right to this big man so i think they can make a deal with Converge in the coming weeks.

Maybe that attitude puts him on a free agent but nevertheless, he will get a team sooner or later because he is still a great player that can contribute to the team, also he’s committed on improving himself and deliver the best result. Converge is a great option as well, but let’s see if Greg will still ask for more or settle with the offer, we’ll find out as time is running and the new conference will start again.

Well, we don't know what's in their mind. If they're willing to trade then during the interview, they have already said that and the player would make up his mind to allow him to stay.
We don't know what's going to happen with all of them but the next conference is coming. So whether you think it's nonsense, it's okay and if I think that's brilliant for them asking who's willing to stay for their careers, it's also okay.

Maybe the purpose of the exit interview is only for those players who are likely to get traded. Like a briefing that they will be traded possibly but no exact timeframe is given. It's awkward if the said player will insist to stay knowing they become a candidate for the trade which means the team already didn't approve of the recent performance they have shown in the post-elimination round.

In my own opinion, this exit interview should just be done after the All-Filipino Cup. It's really hard for locals to make an adjustment if all the time, the play is designed for the import. It's good to judge and rate these locals after an All-Filipino Cup where no imports are part of the rotation.

I'll just think that they'll have this interview to know the loyalty of each of them. Yeah, it's quite odd to interview someone that will be traded if it's already on their plans.
Maybe, they'll tell that a player is about to be traded and they'll ask if he's okay with that or if he truly wants to stay with them. Well, at the end of it, it's just going to be about the business then.
