First game is over and the Aces won against the BlackWater Bossing 103-77. A one sided match indeed. I don't know if I'm the only one who thought about it but the roster of the BW Bossing isn't a championship caliber. Like see their roster, no superstar, just all average players that is why when I saw this roster on FB I already saw some comments telling that this team will be in the last spot on the eliminations. I'm not belittling them still but just seeing their roster, I don't know if they will be able to enter at least to the playoffs. Any takeaways??
I expect Alaska would win but I didn't expect it will be a blowout win by the Alaska Aces. Blackwater is not a championship team, it's okay to belittle them anyway as rumors said they are just a farm team, so they don't have a superstar. This team was only fun to watch when Ray Parks was still playing, but now he's gone in this team, and in the PBA, they are now a boring team.
Maybe this is also the reason why the owner of Blackwater decided to sell their franchise because they are being used as a farm team by other teams.
Anyway, its obvious that they really are when they traded Ray Parks to some average players which is for me kinda unequal trade.
Unfortunately, there's no live streaming in this game, I think they prefer not to show it so we will just watch on our TV, and that advertisers will benefit more. I don't know really, this is the first time after many seasons that PBA has no live streaming.
The PBA live coverage on Facebook will be broadcasted on these pages:
https://www.facebook.com/SMARTSportsPhilippineshttps://www.facebook.com/pusopilipinasFor TV5 during Wednesday and Friday games, they will only broadcast the 2nd and 3rd games due to conflict of schedule on the first game and their noontime show, Launch Out Loud. The same goes for Sunday games as the first game will again conflict with their noontime show, ASAP Natin to!.
I thought that they will not allow livestreaming on Facebook because it might affect their advertisement revenues but it looks like they are still doing some livestreaming.
Now that our TV has been fixed, I will not watch livestream anymore
. Watched the 3 games yesterday and it looks good at least knowing that it is the first games of the season.
