No Japeth, no problem.  Smiley

That's what happens in the game. C. Stand was able to do the job Japeth left and he had more production in this game compared to game 1. I just pitty the NLEX because they are struggling now after a good conference, if only their import did not left, they sure have a bigger chance of beating the Gin Kings.

Great defense by the Meralco, they were able to limit Paul lee and he struggles in the game.
Paul Lee only scored 10 points and had a very poor shooting night with 3/16 FGM/A.
This series gets more interesting, without Paul Lee's good shooting, I think Meralco has a decent chance of winning the series.
Import vs import, they are 50/50 match with each other, and it only boils down to the locals on how they will help the import to win,
This game, it was the Meralco who is the better team.

Congratulations to them, the series is getting more exciting unlike the NLEX vs Ginebra series where NLEX could possibly be sweep.
Give them at least one win, lol.. kidding.

No Japeth, no problem.  Smiley

Dbag scam team/league does it again (3rd game in a row), NLEX up 39:23 after 15min and in the next 15min they are 12:33 , makes total sense.

When does FIBA or any supervision look into this shit and stop this?

Next game and NEXT scam, lol. Same as last game, leading whole start of the game until 43:33 and then some minutes later it is 49:58, another easy peasy 25:6 run against NLEX, as always .

Still not rigged when it happens every game?



It's still not rigged for me. what are you thinking? do you expect that the favorite always wins the game? Come on, this is a semi-finals series, every team will adjust especially those teams that are losing in the series. Actually, if you are a bettor and you are aware of the system, there's nothing to worry or complain about.

You'll only call a game is rigged when the outcome is opposite of your expectation, but don't mind it brother, it's normal, sometimes people have their personal opinon even though they don't have an evidence calling the game rigged.

From this list, I think  Greg Slaughter is the only possible player that they can sign.
High percentage of probability as Greg would certainly look for a team that could give a max out contract.

Yes, because he is under free agency now.

The University of the Visayas product has yet to agree on a contract extension with the Batang Pier and is keen on exploring his options overseas. It can be remembered that the 33-year-old cager signed a one-year extension with Barangay Ginebra in February of last year before he was traded to Northport in exchange for Christian Standhardinger.

Now is the best chance for Greg to get signed with a good contract, if that would happen then he will not anymore pursue going overseas to play basketball. However, it still depends on him because Leagues like B League offers way bigger salary compared to the PBA.

These players are the speculated target players of the Converge Team.

They choose Jeron Teng as their main player and will do their best to surround him with good teammates. I just don't know how they can possibly sign these players:

RJ Jazul
Jamie Malonzo
Matthew Wright
Mo Tautaa
Javee Mocon
Greg Slaughter
Rashawn McCarthy
Troy Rosario
Isaac Go


Most of the players are star players of their respective teams, I don't think they'll be able to sign at least 50% of the players listed. So what would happen to the other players of Akaska aces? I only see Jeron Teng as the only player from Alaska.

From this list, I think  Greg Slaughter is the only possible player that they can sign.
Most of them are in the independent teams like McCarthy, Go, Mocon, Malonzo, Wright.
If they can get all of these players then they can be a playoff contender instantly because on how explosive most of the players are like Malonzo, Wright, Rosario. They can build a good starting 5 and maybe a good 5-man bench players as well.

On the other hand though, I don't think that most of the teams will just let their players go unless they are a free agent. Well, its just a speculation after all but IMO I don't think that they can get all or at least most of the players listed above just because I don't believe that their respective teams will let them go.

This is a big loss for the team, and with that said, NLEX has a good chance of winning game 2, as well as the series.

For Game 2, yes that was a disadvantage but for the series, I doubt it. It's not that Japeth Aguilar is the most key player in the Ginebra roster. I even think they are just the same or equal with NLEX in terms of roster strength even Japeth will be out.

BGSM's locals are ahead of NLEX locals. It will now depend on their respective imports performance which is always a game-changing event. The absence of Japeth can be covered. Tim Cone already knows the drill.

On my betting side, I will skip betting on Game 2. I don't know but I sense that there will be bounce-back results. Since I have won my bet on Game 1, won't harm if my supposed bet this Game 2 will be won. I can go back betting on the sudden-death game if it will happen.

Betting odds for tomorrow's game is now out in the market.

Ginebra -4.5
Magnolia -3.5...

I'm just wondering why Magnolia is only -3.5 after a dominant performance in the first game.
Are we going to see a trap here?

It seems that ginebra is getting the crowd here and also ginebra is the favorite team ever in the history of Philippine basketball association. Even though That magnolia has a dominant performance still that ginebra has a bigger amount of bets than magnolia. I think it also that we will see a trap here, as for now all we need is to observe.

As always, we should not be surprised with that, and actually, even if Ginebra will lose tomorrow, I'm pretty sure they will still remain as the favorite to win in game 3. The good thing with Ginebra si that most of the time they have a solid 4th quarter, so one technique I'm using is I bet on them when they are down to get a very attractive odds, what I'm saying is live betting.

Yes you are right that mate ginebra is is a king and they will put all their best in the final quarter that's what's many people or a crowd choose them than others. As we can saw in their last fights they will choose to behind the last 3rd quarter of the game but in the end 4th quarter is in them and they will  comeback the lead and claim the victory. So there's no reason why the betting odds are lower than their opponent, and also it's better to bet during live time in order to know what who are have the potential team to win.

With Japeth down, i think a 4.5 HC is just too high for Ginebra and they might not cover this one or they might lose the game so for bettors just be careful as Ginebra is too unpredictable in the elimination, they might relax this game two so with that I'll go with live betting.

For Magnolia, I'll go with their opponent as I see this as a see-saw battle. Bishop is a good import, they can't be swept.

That's right, if we would like to bet against Ginebra, this is the best chance because it's the first game this series they'll miss Japeth so adjustment has to be made. Not only that 4.5 is high to cover, Ginebra could possibly loss this game if they cannot replace a good defender inside.

We still have Caperal and the other Aguilar, and also don't forget C. Stand, he is also a good defender, so it's just like no one is down for Ginebra. However, it's different when Japeth is playing, but let's see how this goes, still for Ginebra winning the game though.

Looks like this is a bad news for Ginebra.

Japeth Aguilar's calf injury a dampener for Ginebra's Game One win

Quote
BARANGAY Ginebra's Game 1 win over NLEX cost the Gin Kings one key player as big man Japeth Aguilar went down with a calf injury.

Coach Tim Cone confirmed the 6-foot-9 Aguilar went down with the injury at the end of the Kings' 95-86 victory over the Road Warriors to open their PBA Governors Cup semifinals series at the MOA Arena.

"It put a damper on our win," said Cone.

This is a big loss for the team, and with that said, NLEX has a good chance of winning game 2, as well as the series.

Prior to Converge getting the Alaska rights, is there a list shown to the public who offers to buy the franchise?
I don't think that there's a list of that which they'll show to the public. But just another news related to the Converge/Alaska franchise. They're going to retain Cariaso as the head coach and they're now in talks with the players.
(https://www.spin.ph/basketball/pba/converge-to-assess-alaska-players-coaches-performance-for-team-consideration-a793-20220323)

As per the news, There’s 3 companies interested to buy the franchise of Alaska Aces which the owner didn’t name them due to privacy. But considering Converge successfully purchased it from them, We can assume that the other 2 companies is the well known giant company SMC and MVP since they are always looking for to expand there influence in the PBA league, Good thing the owner decided to sell it to a new company or else PBA will be more boring to watch especially when the underdog team face a giant company team like Ginebra.
There is the chance that they're SMC and MVP companies again. Well, they're always trying to take over anything and have a farm team so that their other team would be one of the greatest.
And there's the picture that I've seen that Kume isn't smiling and probably it's due to it. It's just a meme and a quick take of picture but I like it that it went to Converge.

Back on the topic, Magnolia vs Ginebra is surely in the finals!

If there's no drama that may happen, these two are the favorite to meet in the finals. We have seen them playing in game 1

and they both win the game. If there's no answer from MVP's franchise, the chance is high for both Gin king and Magnolia to be in the finals.

No sisterhood and just pure finals. This might be really interesting. Both teams have the caliber to bring down their opponents, team effort

and good ball rotations. It's an interesting match and for sure fans will love to watch.

Magnolia -3.5...

I'm just wondering why Magnolia is only -3.5 after a dominant performance in the first game.
Are we going to see a trap here?

Not sure why it's just -3.5, there's no reported injury or any update if there's a key player that will not play tomorrow, this is a good chance for Magnolia fans if this odd will be taken as early as now and magnolia will continue their solid performance. It can be a double digit lead and they will still win the game.

Take both, or wait and observe when the game starts. Sometimes you may get much better odd during the second half.

both Magnolia and Ginebra love to chase in the last quarter and you may see them underdog during the early quarters, you may get much decent for your bets.

There is a chance that it will only happen if:
1. There will be a team that will sell their franchise and they will be the ones who will win the bid.
2. The PBA will make an expansion and adding more teams.

I think these 2 factors you have mentioned are not possible since Chooks To Go already running a league. Only companies that don't have an affiliation to any leagues in the country are allowed to bid for a franchise or apply as an expansion team.

I'm sure if there's an attempt of Chooks To Go to buy a team in the PBA, it will not be approved by the PBA Board of Governors.

Even though That magnolia has a dominant performance still that ginebra has a bigger amount of bets than magnolia. I think it also that we will see a trap here, as for now all we need is to observe.

I'm confused. What kind of trap?

The real trap is if Magnolia will be provided with a much better handicap since everyone will take the bait for it as they dominated Game 1. That's how I looked at it as a bettor for a long.

Look, it's just -3.5. I don't know how it became a trap.
