Doesn't sound a rumor because that article was released by the PBA management itself and published by the Manila Bulletin, so it's quite safe to assume that this is a confirmed information that's likely to happen next month. Sadly, this event isn't open to public yet but yeah as soon as they will announce the games, we can also resume betting. Hopefully, there's no more setbacks this time around.
The Betting side can be done online and we can view the games as well, it will harm the PBA in terms of money making but they don't have any option, resuming is the only thing to get something from sponsors, we can only hope for the league to resume and see what would be the fate of this league if the virus continue to penetrate or country..

All we can do for now is to live with it and do our best to avoid being infected.  Smiley Cool

The game will proceed, we are waiting for announcement and soon it will resume back.  Roll Eyes Wink

I just can't remember where i read it but i'm pretty sure that the PBA will be back in action on the first week of February as it gets the unanimous nods from the board of Governors to resume the games, in fact the IATF has allowed team scrimmages this week.

Besides, covid cases in the NCR is dropping and health experts have predicted that things will be back to the pre-omicron status by March so we can expect crowd to be back in the arena this March or April.

PBA games to resume first week of February

Ain't sure if this is the exact article that you've read as it contains the same description you quoted earlier. Anyways, seems like we could already see the games soon to recommence this year and continue the season that we've anticipated for a while now. Also, they're waiting for the final approval from the local LGU and IATF to start the team's practice before the elimination starts.

Great news, thanks for sharing that article, it might be a rumor or confirmed information, what matters now is that it's very positive and that will make us fans to be more excited again. The IATF will soon grant the PBA to resume it's paused conference and we will also resume betting.  Grin

I'd love to see the result, and I'm optimistic that it will happen because it's been a while now since the PBA is halted. The conference has to resume as for me this conference is a very competitive one, it's hard to predict on what team will win the championship.
It will happen. The surge isn't forever so its only a matter of time before it happens. Same with Delta where there are days where the cases are its highest then it goes down gradually. It will also be the same with Omicron.

Cases in NCR is slowly going down and cases in different region is starting to increase now. For PBA, this is a good sign for them since its only a matter of time that they will resume the Governor's Cup. Earliest possible is next month before they resume but I don't know what week. Lets wait Smiley.

Imports do not have to wait for too long before they can resume. Knowing that the teams are already allowed to start their practice is a good sign that soon enough the PBA will resume. NLEX had a good start, hopefully, their momentum will not be gone due to this long break.

Let me refresh you guys with the current standing.

Their record is 4-1

Too tempting and this will be a hard decision for Coach Topex.

Too tempting indeed but i don't think that he would bite the offer as he would be away for his family for a long time. Filipinos are too attached to their families so i don't think that coach Topex will be coaching in Japan soon, maybe if he had no more job in the Philippines then i think that he go there to coach.

It's a good thing though that coaches had been noticed in Japan, maybe they want to experiment what works in their system, US or Philippine style of coaching.

The same sentiment here. Maybe if the offer will be from Assistant Coach to Head Coach, that might trigger the brainstorming on Coach Topex head since obviously, the salary of a Head Coach is far different from Assistant. I tried to search some sample figures about the salary of the head coach in the B-League but can't find any. I found one but I don't know if it's legit.

Usually, even for other OFWs, they would only grab the offer to work abroad if the increase in salary is really high for example, an employee earning Php 35,000 a month here and will just earn Php 45,000 a month abroad will think twice since it's just a Php 10,000 increase and they will be away from their families.

Yes, since Coach Topex was scouted and recognized in Japan B-league, meaning it's a start of scouting other PH coaches too.


That attachment to the culture gives value to every Filipino, yes, if the offer was too good to take that thing into consideration.

Just like what you have said, if B-League will give him the head coach that may value a lot, aside from the compensation, the recognition also

counts, being recognized and being imported from another country is a good recognition of any people who love excelling from their passions.

Again, it's a yes with talents that B-League is scouting to our country...

We're slow in dealing with it and that's why the index made by Bloomberg ranks us the last but we eventually got up 3 positions AFAIK. I guess can't blame the PBA management for having tough times whenever there's a new alert that's being implemented. It's also due to the IATFs way of dealing with this pandemic and I guess we need to step up just like the other countries. It's not all about our health care system or they're advanced but it's about acceptance that we have to deal and live with this virus just as the other diseases.


The more to accept that we need to live with this virus, the better chances that we can push further. It's not just the government or the WHO, but everyone needs to do their share in fighting and preventing this virus. No doubt that PBA is doing their job observing how they can proceed with this current season. It's business, but they also need to think about people's health securities and by following what the IATF recommendation.

The game will proceed, we are waiting for announcement and soon it will resume back.  Roll Eyes Wink

I also see this connection just like what they did last December, well let’s see if this is correct and this is actually good for PBA so they can finally finish the season and start a new one. We know how politics works in our country, they will surely slowly loosen the restriction again especially now that many are already vaccinated.
Yeah, the perfect example was December. I've been through many checkpoints that doesn't have people on duty.

Yes, while in other countries where they are not implementing restriction, us, we are still dealing with it. Not sure why the government is unable to imitate that same procedures or they are tied because of the many unvaccinated people who can spread the virus still, we are in the position where we can only do is to wait.

PBA will resume though, even there's restriction they are still alternative plan to proceed.

We just waiting for the announcement to clear these things out from the PBA board.

I was also about to type what's the connection of the upcoming election between the cases we're now experiencing. Lol Grin
It's because the politicians are going to loosen some restrictions just to get the vote of everyone. It's not new anymore and everybody is expecting that to happen because they all want the votes going to them. We're already too late with the restrictions and we have to live with it actually. While the other countries are dealing and living with it without any restrictions but there's still the minimum health protocol and usage of the mask, here we are still having the hard times.

Let’s hope for a better case of covid next month and I’m confident that numbers will slowly go down again because we all know, elections is coming.
I'm curious by your statement, what's the relationship with the upcoming election on the decreasing of covid cases?

I was also about to type what's the connection of the upcoming election between the cases we're now experiencing. Lol Grin

The thing is, the numbers of the Covid positives will slowly reduce because of the fact that omnicron variant is isn't too severe than the Delta variant and that's why there's just few severe cases reported. Back to the game, well I think they have no choice but to set a venue outside NCR just to resume the season.

Probably he was thinking that the numbers weren't real, and when the election comes they'll reduce it so people would feel that the officials are doing their job and that way they can get their votes. Aren't we used to that kind of manipulation already? we have lots of corrupt politicians starting from the higher offices down to the lowest.

The offer is not that high to be tempted because it adds only a few grand and he won't settle for that kind of salary to leave his families and yes, I agreed with you. I think Japanese basketball is becoming more popular than before because of the import players and coaches. It would be good because if this will continue for a long time, we will see another Anime that will inspire with it or we will have a continuous season of Slamdunk that has our local players. This is possible because Japan has been known to promote their country with Anime as well.

At least we don't have to speculate now, we just have to wait for next month so we will see the resumption of the PBA conference. The imports might still be enjoying their stay in the PH as they have no choice, they need to finish the contract and wait until PBA would be able to settle a place to resume.
Yes, that's the best thing about it. There's now an awaited decision for next month and for those import contracts, those have specific dates and with the stoppage of the league.
Those days have been rendered based on their contract and if they have other commitments outside PBA, once they're done and finish their contracts, for sure they're also going to leave.
I think the contract will be on a per-game basis as I've seen some imports before easily get replaced once the team is not satisfied with their performance. However, this is a special case, they didn't play because of the safety restriction, therefore I expect them to still get paid even resting for awhile.
I'm not sure about that. It's like they can terminate anyone's contract at their own will but most likely, the majority of the contracts have their own time set predetermined on how long they should stay until the end of the contract. I also saw those imports that have been replaced even the conference hasn't ended yet. It's on the management if they want to an import to stay for long.
