Hello for those people saying PBA is monopolized and everything is business

Maybe true in some cases especially in giving trade rights but not on a Finals series between two different companies. Maybe if between sister teams, that is possible although it's on the officiating and not on the team and players themselves.

Even Brownlee's poor performance in the first half makes people think that it's already scripted and Meralco will control the game. The low scoring in the first half was also even pointed out. But in the second half, Brownlee does his Brownlee thing.

2 months from now I think, the next conference will commence.

Now with regards to PBA is business, it really is business

. What is the main reason why companies wanted to join the PBA? To advertise their company and its part of their business

. Why would the PBA wants to continue the league? We can say for entertainment yes but its very hypocrite if we will say that it isn't because of money. Again business Wink

. Not debating whatsoever but I just want to share my opinion regarding PBA a monopoly and a business.

You got mislead, bro.

What I'm saying about business is the other side of the league, for example manipulating trade rights and approving an unfair trade and they will call it fair, something like that. In other words, there's a business internally.

Of course, PBA is business in terms of advertising, marketing, etc and that's obvious.

You didn't get what I'm trying to point out and really focus on the word "business". Cheesy

I'm one of the few people who thinks like this and maybe lets change the word "monopoly" into "duopoly" since the league isn't for one company only but 2 of them namely SMC and MVP

. Maybe we can disregard the PBA Finals on this one but... I want to see an independent team going into the PBA Finals or even Semis and not the same SMC and MVP teams always.

Brownlee played poorly I agree but this is where the Locals stepped up especially Tenorio who made the dagger three to seal the deal in the final quarter. Congrats to Scottie Thompson as well in his Finals MVP. Well deserved.

I've read a post that if ever Meralco wins the 6th game, then the game 7th is going to be on the Philippine Arena. Well, it's already been said here IIRC a few days ago.
But the thing that caught the attention of the people on that post is about "IF". They've given a big meaning to that because they're telling that Ginebra is going to lose in advance.

I wonder what would be the total crowd number if we are able to go for a game 7, well Ginebra didn’t need to wait for that moment and they want to claim the championship already. That was a great run by Ginebra and every player really contributes, they all deserve the title and congrats to all the bettors who also won a money by supporting Ginebra that includes me.

I think the total number of people watching the do-or-die game would reach 60k individuals, unfortunately, Ginebra Kings did not let it happen though. I hope that win of Ginebra last night would end all speculations/rumors that PBA games are staged.

Personally, I did not bet on that game as I thought that Meralco would win because the series is a see-saw battle (not because it is staged).

Ginebra ends that rumor and 20k live viewers last night was still a huge number though it could be more if there’s a game 7. Anyway, its really good to see Ginebra winning with a huge crowd, they are really the people champion and they didn’t disappoint the fans this conference. Looking forward for the next one, let’s see if Meralco and Magnolia will bounce back and challenge Ginebra again.

No more conspiracy theory, the better team won the game and Ginebra was already declared as the champion. That was too easy, 3 straight wins to end the series and Thompson again received an award, such a very impressive season for this kid, not surprised if he wins the season's MVP as well.

All done now, it was a team effort that bring Ginebra to this another title; the locals are bringing everything. They are all in full battle mode and the result favor them. There are no huge fans to be anticipated. Game 7 didn't happen and with the same outcome, Ginebra beats Meralco in game 6.

Congrats to all those who ride and take both ML and handicap before the game, sweet for those who believes and take that handicap
fully covered and for sure they are now celebrating with a cold beer now. Roll Eyes

The end of fixed game theory, this was a great season and honestly I don’t even think Ginebra would end up the champion here because the way they played during the eliminations are not that great but still they manage to survive and do better every game. Looking forward for the next conference, its fun to bet with Ginebra as always.

Ginebra is doing it they end up in game 6, and I am surprised too I thought game 7 is waiting but LA tenorio and his team finish the game and claim the back 2 back champions. I salute to the Meralco players to give us a good match not a scripted one. And yes make you are right even though in elimination round they are not on top but in the long run slowly but surely they head up and claim an championship trophy.
Congrats for those who bet The kings.

This is indeed a great conference and seeing the crowd yesterday, they missed the championship scenario. Good thing Ginebra already claim the title and was able to defend the governor's cup. The local players did a great job and I’m surprised that Scotty won the finals MVP, I thought its the Brownlee who will get it but it's good for Scotty since he’s a great player as well.

Both players of a team are good and contribute well but only one will be the best of them and claim the MVP trophy for the conference champions and no other than Scotty Thompson, without a doubt, besides LA Tenorio and their import Brownlee, Scotty Thompson prove himself that he can make a noise from the crowd when he shot the ball into the rim, and also in terms of outside shooting Thompson is good for that.

I don't think that way. There should be really an advance update regarding the future venue and that is necessary as fans need to adjust. Traveling to Bulacan is not that simple for others compared to going to Araneta and MOA Arena especially those who lived in the capital.

It's not that PBA will just release the announcement where the venue for Game 7 should be after the Game 6. Don't take it with a wrong impression.

That's why the term "if necessary" is always present at any game series match, here or outside the local league.

Welp, Ginebra won and they're now this conference's champion. And it's just an "IF" if ever there will be a game 7 but not anymore.
The conference has ended and it's a sweet victory for the Gin kings and the next conference is I'm excited for, Alaska out - Converge in.

Good defense wins the game, Ginebra does not only have that, they are also a great offensive team with a great import that can certainly do everything. LA Tenorio explode again with 30 points, he leads the team in terms of points, and we know, when the locals are producing it's almost an automatic team for Ginebra, once again, Normal Black fall to Tim Cone.

The result is too expected. Ginebra has been very consistent this season but I didn't expect that Alaska would be out this time. It was a tough match for Meralco but the exhibitions shown by Ginebra are obviously well determined to win. They deserve their spot.

I just watch the last finals between these two and Ginebra win the series in game 6 with Brownlee's 3 points buzzer beater.

Lots of speculation and we really don't know what will be the result of these upcoming game, who knows another buzzer beater

or it will be favoring Meralco and force the series to a do-or-die game 7.

Just a preparation in the side of PBA in case the series will be extended, and no doubt PBA would love to see that happened.

Revenue wise, it will favor the association with a lot of people to watch the live game.

If JB performance is a little bit off on today’s match, There's no doubt that there will be game 7 as we saw this kind of scripted finals many times with Ginebra involved. I'm really urge to bet on Meralco this time around because they are in the best effort to get this game and force a do or die game but my guts telling that Ginebra can end this on tonights match due to JB hunger to get another championship.

Congratulations to those who YOLO bet on Ginebra. I place a net -4.5 Handicap with Ginebra since I can’t get sleep if I will let this game pass. I was very lucky that I follow hunch that lingering on my stomach despite I really want to bet with Meralco. Meralco seems in control on first quarter then Ginebra take over the rest until the end. Meralco don’t have any answer on Ginebra aggression especially LA to stop the bleeding.

Well then, scripted or not, why not takes your thoughts on the gambling side?

If you think the game will be rigged, gamble some to Meralco.
If you think the game will end today, gamble some to Ginebra.

Speculations about being scripted or not will just give you more confusion and trouble on where to bet.

Or on the safe side, everyone can wait until Game 7 and bet there. But what if the game ends today? There will be no more Game 7 betting.

I just watch the last finals between these two and Ginebra win the series in game 6 with Brownlee's 3 points buzzer beater.

Just a trivia here. That game was speculated as rigged too because Ginebra is behind by many points in that game. But since they have won that series, those people who said the game is rigged become silent and are shut up. Ginebra tried to cut the lead and ended up tied before that buzzer-beater.

However, since some people don't give up that the game is rigged, they even claimed that Justin Brownlee's buzzer-beater is not really intentional but the ball just got shoot and that destroys the script that Meralco should win.

Isn't it funny? If that game is scripted, Ginebra can just sit out their key players during the time they are behind big points.
