Campaign Management?"Hhampuz" is the Man
August 04, 2021, 10:44:34 AM

Personally, I think it's better to halt the season for now as this Delta variant is not a joke and also to give peace of mind to the players whose families are left at home. I think this would only last a month and this will be downgraded again to MGCQ and they can resume playing by that time.

I doubt they'll do that, they have invested in this season so they'll find a way for this season to continue, if they will have to make a bubble again, I'm sure they'll do. Just like our economy, if we are afraid of the virus, we will not survive, but we can always find a way to survive even if the virus will stay.

I hope for the safety of the players and the success of the organization, but safety is always important and they can't sacrifice safety just for money.

They should, this ew variant is not a  joke and if they'll going to push this one up there's
no assurance that even players and all the people around the league already have the vaccines,
it's unsure that they'll not going to carry this virus.

I do follow that, it's the safety of everyone and not just for the sake of money,
paused for a while and wait for the outcome of this incoming lockdown.

I think they already found a new location, and hopefully it will be realize and the conference will resume soon.

Let's wait for further updates, maybe they are planning to look for another locations so they can resume the season.
Covid-19 restrictions are really a problem as the implementation is for everyone in a certain area.

The commissioner has said that they are waiting for IATF's approval to transfer the venue where the quarantine status is not strict. Batangas is the location of choice and they are planning to do a mini-bubble setup.

Personally, I think it's better to halt the season for now as this Delta variant is not a joke and also to give peace of mind to the players whose families are left at home. I think this would only last a month and this will be downgraded again to MGCQ and they can resume playing by that time.

PBA suspends games due to rising COVID-19 cases in NCR

Quote
GAMES of the PBA Philippine Cup scheduled on Wednesday have been suspended due to the surge of the COVID-19 Delta variant infections in the National Capital Region (NCR).

The league made the advisory early Tuesday in support of the government’s directive in addressing the rise in COVID cases in Metro Manila, which has been put under GCQ with heightened restrictions from July 30 to August 5.

Eventually, NCR will be placed under a stricter ECQ (Enhanced Community Quarantine) status starting August 6 to August 20.

Let's wait for further updates, maybe they are planning to look for another locations so they can resume the season.

Gilas finishes fourth in Amman as fightback vs Tunisia falls short

The Philippines lose because they did not play Ange Kouame, their naturalized player, I bet for the Philippines but unfortunately, they did not as competitive as they were when they beat Tunisia, of course, Ange Kouame was playing that time.
I haven't followed the King Abdullah cup but it seems that tournaments like this are going to happen from time to time which is a great sign that these funds from the basketball team will be used for what it used to be. We see those critics that are saying that instead of funding the basketball team and improve it, since we know that our country cannot beat other countries in official tournaments, the budget should be allocated to other sporting events and athletes. But they just can't accept the love and passion of our country for this sport which is valuable to us. Anyone who has an idea if there's another tournament like this where Gilas is invited or eligible participant?

They can't say about the budget of this fight because it's not funded by the government funds, it's funded by private funds and this is not a major event, it's just a friendly match although the players represent the Philippines in their campaign.

I think even with Kouame on board, not an assurance that they will win.

They came from a 2-game losing streak, with Kouame playing, prior to that match. What I noticed is, other cadets are not playing well. Even the hyped Thirdy Ravena doesn't seem to show performing well.

More importantly, some cadets are slowly gaining experience playing in the international leagues. Soon to be riped.

This coming Wednesday, their record will surely increase to 2-4 as they will battle with the weakest team in the PBA, they will play the Terraferma DYIP who has not won a single game yet according to the current standing. https://pba.ph/standings

It should be a big bounce back, they cannot be complacent here, if they have a big lead, they should still work hard to keep that lead and had a very dominant win.

They need this win to feel  back the aggressions, they are down now but still have that chance if they start winning those remaining games,

though they are not the same Phoenix when abueva still playing with them, the impact of that guy is really big for every team that he played.



They have the chance to win, it's just a matter of good execution that they are missing, but with DYIP, I doubt they'll lose against this worst team, however, the handicap might be too high as sportsbook knows people are betting on the Phoenix LPG to win.

Quote
Look at the current stats of Magnolia as he really bring that same level, bringing good productions and the fighting spirit from each games that they are playing.

Magnolia has more experienced players than the Phoenix, and they are the better team than the Phoenix so they are expected to be in a good ranking.
The addition of Abueva only makes the team better but the effect of the Phoenix is bad.

it seems like they are not using Perkins and Manuel's talents properly.

I don't see it that way. They did their best. It's just that they fell short and that was common even for a team that doing their very best. The game is close and no reason to looked at why they lose. TNT on the other hand also did their best that's why they were able to snatch the win. Phoenix has surely taken note of that loss.


I am just not impressed anymore with Perkin's performance in their past games, Manuel I think was the best player of the game when they had their first win, that was the time when Wright did not play. I just hope I will see more of Perkin's defense and offense, especially his 3 point shooting.

Maybe his production has dropped because they already have Manuel, but he has to be more aggressive and break this losing streak.

They are now 1-4, this is not the same Phoenix I know.

Looking at the FG%, it's worst yes, but the attempt made is not usual for the rookie. Meaning he has the confidence to take shots even he's struggling and because of more minutes provided to him, soon he will be used to playing his best. He just needs to live with the hype he started. Coach Chot is strict. If he sees a player that isn't competitive enough, he will turn that player into a bench warmer without a doubt.

Coach Chot is good in observing players potentials, he knows that there's something from this guy
and he will try his very best to rinse it out and make him the player that he wanted him to be.

Else, things will not be good for him if he keeps failing coach Chot expectations from him.

Not good will happen I also see that possibilities,
he will sit and watch as bench player hoping being trade out or end his career much earlier than expected.

Mikey Williams has to improve, there's no excuse even if he is still a rookie, Pogoy's minutes have dropped I believe because TNT had invested in Willams who are still struggling in his 2nd game, and they had a high expectation on this player so they'll keep pushing him.

2 consecutive games and here's my take on TNT's rookie Mikey Williams.

I know he's somehow arrogant when he requested a max deal available for the rookie where in the first place, he doesn't prove anything yet (obviously, because he was a rookie). A player who behaves like that is confident in their own skills so Coach Chot likely wants to test him and even provides quality minutes for him resulting in minimizing the usual playing time of the other starters.

Phoenix led by 5 points at the half, the score is 45-40 and TNT seem to have a problem with the defense of the Phoenix.
Will see if TNT will come back or Phoenix will just dominate them.

Lost my first game bet but won the second, break-even for me this day. Both games are close with the winning teams failed to cover the spread.

Mikey Williams played for almost 38 minutes, registering 9 points by way of 4-19 from the field, that's a very low percentage but yet he got heavy minutes so this means that coach Chot has confidence in this guy.



It's still good for the TNT as they won, they are giving Mikey Williams the opportunity to prove himself and I believe eventually he will be able to improve and be more consistent, though he is only rookie in papers but still its his first season in the PBA.

What a comeback by the TNT, Troy Rosario was great, he was getting rebounds and follow-up shot when his teammates are missing.

I think he is the most consistent in this game.

congrats to you @bisdak40 , you still won.

he just need to keep pushing harder, coach Chot is leaning on him as we see his minutes. Giving enough time for this rookie as
they invest a lot and this guy needs to contribute well.

We migh see more coming from him in their next ball game, with that minutes and allowing him to keep shooting, Even in a very
low percentage he just need to let it.

Good job @ Bisdak for winning that handicap, very close game and it's good when you are betting for the underdog.

The difference between the TNT and Phoenix in this game is on the point guard position.

Phoenix is a good starter as they have the aggressiveness but they lack the ability on closing games.
I didn't see them a lot making a lot of attempts inside, it seems like they are not using Perkins and Manuel's talents properly.
IMO, they have advantage inside as these two guys are stronger than the big guys of TNT.
