Wow, i never thought that Ginebra would advance to the semis by defeating the TNT Katropa twice and it was not even a close game.

Scottie Thompson as usual did the damage for the Kings with his hustle and rebounding prowess hehe.

Congrats to all who back the Gin Kings to win and advance to the semis and hopefully to the Finals, seems like the PBA office is smiling at the moment as they expect gate revenues to skyrockets when the semis began.

Brownlee is a big factor here and I didn't expect Ginebra to be on the semis because of their poor performance on the elimination round but they prove something today and its good to see them back on a winning column. Semi finals are more intense if there's a Ginebra there looking forward for other teams but I'm sure Magnolia will also advance while NLEX has a better chance to win right now, let's see.

I was expecting it, after they win in game 1, I am already convinced that the Ginebra Kings have a huge chance of winning the championship again. Also, bad decision for the TNT for changing their import in the do or die game, there's no chemistry been created yet so you cannot expect them to win. s

I agree that it was a wrong decision, their import cannot be effective in just a short period of time. In game 1, it was a bit close unlike the game 2 where the Gin Kings clearly dominated them.

That was obviously based on the outcome of the game, Brownlee cannot be contained, he is really good and he makes his teammates better.

Their import only scored 14 points while Brownlee had 29 points.

Too big of a difference, If import would score lower than the local, that means trouble for the team, unless everyone was really doing a great job, in the side of the TNT, they are not.

Meanwhile, looks like NLEX is going to advance in the Semi too, after a bad game, they bounce back hard and now having comfortable lead which I think they'll take it until the of the game.

50-69, NLEX.

Pretty bad game by the SMB, they lose in the game and their journey has ended.

Final score 85-100 (Meralco), not even a close game.
Congrats to Meralco and sorry to those who bet on SMB to win.

Next game coming up in 8 minutes, let's enjoy the last game of the night.

What happened last Wednesday is the complete opposite of what happened today.
We saw the lower team forcing a do-or-die game last Wednesday but this time, the lower teams got eliminated immediately.

I thought that SMB will do what they did when they are up against Meralco where they made a huge comeback and win the game but it didn't happen this time. Bishop and Newsome carried the whole team with 32 and 22 points respectively while Shabazz only scored 24 points this time, very far to his last performance when these 2 teams met where he scored 50+ points.

Magnolia and Phoenix match-up. I think we all agree that Magnolia will win this series easily and it is what happened. They just dominated the whole game and win it 127-88. Wright's foul trouble made it harder for the Phoenix to come close to the Magnolia and he only scored 8 points. When you need him to score as much as he can, he can't deliver which is kinda sad to think especially for Phoenix fans. Tomorrow lets watch the do-or-die games between TNT-GSM and NLEX-Alaska. Still, I will go with TNT with this one and maybe Alaska will take this one as well

.

Easy win for magnolia and in first quarter of the game they will manage the lead of 14 34-20 and third quarter 102-67 which is a good performance from the magnolia team their outsides shooting is good as well. And for the game tomorrow ill bet GSM and Alaska do or die game I think Alaska has a chance to win and advance to the semi finals.

The effect of SMB's Death 5 shows us how important are these players.

Even on All-Filipino, SMB is not dominating anymore. They proved that they are just being carried by JuneMar Fajardo or their imports. The game has now changed this conference and we see one of the dominating teams before doing an early exit.

Meralco locals do their best and we see that. It's not just their import who the thing for them.

They are now patiently waiting for the Semi-Finals.

Even if the Death 5 of SMB is still intact, the result will be the same i think. Fajardo and the rest of them are getting older and the wear and tear of the games have taken its toll on them but we should also give credit to their opponents especially the locals of Meralco who really showed up when needed like Newsome.

We have two exciting games for tonight and still, i would go for the favorites.

TNT -2.5 vs Ginebra
NLEX -1.5 vs Alaska

You mentioned that well, but the import is not the only one inside the court. Even locals are struggling and looks like they are not prepared

from this game, while Bolts have always a counter and not allowing any rally from SMB.

Meanwhile, with Magnolia, that's full supremacy that they showed from that game against Phoenix. No doubt, they outscored.

Phoenix in each quarter of the game, Nothing but a good ball movement and good rotations! Congrats to all who take the handicap!

Import are just like a local player, they struggle sometimes but it doesn’t mean they are not good.
Magnolia really on top of many teams, they are still proving it though maybe if NP was able to enter Quarterfinals, for sure Magnolia will have a hard time playing. Magnolia really dominates the game, they are well prepared for this.

Maybe because we all got burned on this game. haha.

I'm sure everyone was on SMB -2.5, but look what happened, looks like they are the ones who are the underdog. Now, maybe the management has already realized that trading the veterans like Cabagnot and Santos was really a bad move.

Yeah, we expected that SMB would give Meralco trouble but it didn't happen. The import was very limited compared to his performance in their previous game against the same team which he scored 57 points IIRC, now he was only limited to 24 points.

Meanwhile, looks like no home for Phoenix here as the 20 points lead was even extended.

It's 4th quarter already and the score is 107-69 - Sad

Even on All-Filipino, SMB is not dominating anymore. They proved that they are just being carried by JuneMar Fajardo or their imports. The game has now changed this conference and we see one of the dominating teams before doing an early exit.

JMF is not anymore the best player he was before, he used to score at least 20 points and grab a rebound of 15 or more, but look at his production in this game, he only scored 12 points and 12 rebounds. Also, the other locals aren't performing well, Ross and Lassiter had only combined with 11 points.

12points and 12 rebound is still a decent stats in my opinion since Junmar is the one making on there team as you already mention that the 2 players that supposed to be helping him is having a hard time to find there game. This is normal and we can see adjustment on there next match. JMF is surely not the same strong player since there’s a lot of younger player in the court while he is already showing slowness on his moves compared before that he completely dominating All filipino league.

That rebound is expected from him already because he is the tallest in the team and he played as a Center. However, that 12 points IMO is very low considering that JMF is the best player among the locals, not only in the SMB but in the entire PBA, so I am also not impressed with his performance this season so far.

Quote

Maybe this is the effect of his games hobby that affects his training?

What kind of hobby are you talking?

AFAIK, JMF is a very discipline man, when he is in the court, he is focus on what he is doing.

By the way, the odds are out for tomorrow's games.
https://sportsbet.io/sports/basketball/philippines/pba-governors-cup/matches

Moneyline
Ginebra @ 2.07

I think this odds of Ginebra, I think we should not waste this opportunity as I'm pretty sure the line will move and the odds will change. For now, Ginebra is +2.5 but I have a feeling that it will flip as the game time is approaching.

Alaska @ 1.87

A good one too considering NLEX did really struggle in their first game.

For sure the Semi Finals will be more entertaining because it will be Meralco vs Magnolia. And the winners tomorrow will also face each other.
my prediction for the other Semi Finals match will be the Ginebra vs Alaska.

.

I thought the game between GSM and TNT is on Sunday.

Anyways, it's a double header tomorrow, TNT vs GSM will be the main attraction while Aces vs NLEX will be the 2nd attraction.
I think they should change the time schedule, TNT vs GSM should be @06:30 PM instead of the other game.

No, SMB does not have a Lebron type player.

Anyway, looks like Magnolia is going to advance because they are leading 20 points already ending the first half. If this team takes this kind of big lead, only a miracle will do for a team trying to come back and win. I have a feeling that the spread will be covered as well, so congrats on the -6.5 betslips you guys kept.

Half time score is 66-46, it remained a 20 points advantage by the Magnolia hotshots. Paul Lee is very hot in this game, he already had 20 points and big part of that is coming from a 5-6 shooting in the 3 point line, what a night for him, the import doesn't need to work hard to win because Paul has taken over the game.

It's a disappointing loss for the fans who trust SMB and place their bets with the handicap, while for those who trust Meralco, either the

handicap or the ML. It's a sweet win and another chance to bet on their next trip.
