I hope TNT can still win games and will get into the Finals.

Ray Parks announced that he will not play in the upcoming season.

TNT Tropang Giga’s Bobby Ray Parks not seeing action this season

Quote

“It is with a heavy heart that I will have to excuse myself and not partake in this year’s PBA season due to personal reasons which in particular, my family,” wrote Parks.

I think with his absence, TNT will have a better ball movement and Poguy will get more touch especially in the 3 point shooting.
How about you, what are your thoughts, is TNT better without Ray Parks or not?

That's also what I'm thinking when Parks got injured during the PBA bubble and I'm somehow correct in my speculation, Pogoy and Castro's touch of the ball increased, and though they lost the series their chemistry is back.

Manny Pangilinan, in his social media post, is very upset about this Parks leave on the PBA and it seems that he might do might something that might affect the cager's future.

This kind of attitude will not bring you a good future in the PBA, he might be boycotted by team owners.

I have high hopes on TNT this season but looks like with this news, I'm not believing anymore they'll be competitive as I expected.

Don't loss that hope mate if you are a real TNT fan, before Ray Parks get into the team, TNT is already a championship contender team. I doubt the problem are the players, I believe the real problem is the coaching staff, and with coach Chot Reyes back, he will change the system and bring back the way how TNT played under his coaching in the past.

That's how I see as well, with the former champion coach is now back he will bring the best out from his players. He's well-respected so for sure those who are not playing that hard will be push and we will see huge improvements.

Although Parks brings extra power to the team and his absence may affect a little but

with Coach Chot surely he'll find ways to fill it up and bring someone to work and adjust with

how they needed someone who can bring the type of game that parks provided them before.

Ginebra will be the new favorite to win the championship.

If there was only a PBA futures, I will surely bet on the Ginebra to win this season.
We don't have news yet regarding the status of Fajardo, and even if he will come back healthy this season, I still don't expect that he will be 100% back.

Can C. Stand defend Fajardo?

I too still am hoping for every team to have their teams healthy with the season opening because we are currently seeing some blockbuster trades and some people wanting the Beast to go to Ginebra. Fajardo will be sidelined because being a big man gives a greater chance of being injured and they do not want to rush the recovery of one of the best Center's in the league.

I believe he can guard Fajardo but he needs to do it consistently because Fajardo is someone who pushes hard to the basket and has better experience compared to C.

@Distinctin, I think this is not a good news, TNT is an offensive team and even though they change their coach already, I guess Ray Parks would still become the main focal point of attack since he is an all around player which I think better than Pogoy.

Well, I know it he was but it's now under the new coach, there will be a major changes for sure and I'm looking forward to that as I know it's for the good of the team.

Quote from: Finestream on March 06, 2021, 05:34:30 AM

With a good coaching, TNT will be able to utilize the TNT squad effectively, Castro, Parks and Pogoy are the big 3 and they can explode anytime.

I have high hopes on TNT this season but looks like with this news, I'm not believing anymore they'll be competitive as I expected.

Just believe and we shall see how improve the TNT this season. As long as Castro will remain healthy, I know they'll be able to give a good competition to the best teams in the league, the ball movement is different or better once Castro holds the ball and he needs to be surrounded by shooters as most of the time he can attract the defense to give an open spot for the shooters.

Cone wins Outstanding Coach of the Bubble award

He truly deserved this award, I don't know what kind of award coach Tim has not achieve yet.
If he will retire, he will be remembered as one of the best coach in the PBA or probably the best since he was the best in our generation.

Next season, I hope to see a new winner because I want more and better competition.

Chito Victolero might have a chance to win as they have Calvin Abueva already but the Ginebra San Miguel is too scary as they have C. Stand already who can average a double double in any game. Japeth would not be pressure, he does not have to play a longer minutes and that will make Ginebra a team to beat if they will build a good chemistry with C. Stand.

Quote from: Russlenat on March 05, 2021, 04:42:04 PM

This trade is probably the biggest news so far.

Nothing bigger so far, the big trades this year so far are.

1. Manuel traded to Phoenix
2. Calvin traded to Magnolia.
3. C. Stand traded to Ginebra.

This trade is probably the biggest news so far.

They really waited for Slaughter to come back just to trade him, I think Slaughter is not anymore surprise with this as just like what the rumors said, this is the reason why he left the BGSM in the past and now maybe have realized that he has no future outside the Philippines, come back and accept his destiny. It's gonna be the first time I will see Slaughter will be playing with other team, I hope he will become an asset more than when he was still with the Ginebra.

Nearly 500,000 doses of AstraZeneca vaccine arrive in Philippines

Quote

MANILA, PHILIPPINES

(UPDATED) This first shipment from the COVAX Facility, together with the earlier Sinovac doses, gives the country the ability to vaccinate over 540,000 individuals

Close to 500,000 doses of the vaccine developed by AstraZeneca and Oxford University arrived in the Philippines aboard a KLM Royal Dutch Airlines commercial plane on Thursday night, March 4.

The shipment arrived around 7:20 pm at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in Metro Manila.

We have different sources, not only a vaccine from China, so there's a big possibility that the PBA will allow audience when they commence.

Yes, there are other vaccines coming but PBA isn't an essential and priority. Vaccines for the public will happen only after most of the front liners are vaccinated and that's why I don't think that it will include private purchase such as the PBA management.

I read some rumors in the past that there are already private people who got vaccine prior to the news that vaccines will be arriving or has arrived in the Philippines, so Maybe it's possible to get vaccine anytime soon. And even if there are delays, I'm pretty sure PBA teams will get a vaccine soon and we will see a crowd although measures are still in place.

I think this is some sort of the Commissioner's way of making the arena full as it's only Ginebra is capable of doing that.

With C-Stand in their roster, they can be in the finals every now and then lol.

Ginebra acquires Standhardinger in one-on-one trade for Slaughter

As a PBA fan, what are your thoughts on this blockbuster trade?

A favorable trade for Ginebra, a big chance really for them to wait at the finals.

They were getting in the Finals even prior to this trade, they won the PBA Finals last season so no double about how good Ginebra is and they are even better now with the acquisition of C stand.

It's added the chance though inside the hearts of most fans they are always the favorite by more PBA fans.

Quote

If there was only a PBA futures, I will surely bet on the Ginebra to win this season.

Me as well, adding C.Stand with the current squad, we seen more upgraded and more complete lineup with Tim as head coach, simply watching a National team type playing inside PBA.

Quote

We don't have news yet regarding the status of Fajardo, and even if he will come back healthy this season, I still don't expect that he will be 100% back.

He's aging and with those injuries, it will be hard for him to force everything.

Quote

Can C. Stand defend Fajardo?

Absoulutely! He have experiences guarding much bigger, he played for the National right?

I have seen this flash in my fb profile today, I'm happy for this.

Turns out the rumor is true, and welcome to the Ginebra San Miguel C Stand.. I guess they now win another championship, happy for him to finally land in a good team. Maybe he wasn't playing well in the bubble so NP will decide to trade him. lol.

Kelly Williams career is not yet over.

Kelly Williams making PBA comeback after signing two-year TnT deal

Another two years, I hope this season he will stay healthy and if he will get injured, he will not suffer a serious injury.
He has been a big help for the success of the TNT, he's 39 years old but he can still contribute a lot to the team.

His return is just a confirmation that he had a conflict with some of the members of the previous coaching staff or conflict with the head coach himself.

He left the bubble then announced that he already retire from basketball without even notifying the management about his decision

.

Machine Gun Kelly, even at his age of 39 is a big help to the campaign of TNT, high leaper and can provide good defense at the middle and even intimidate Junmar Fajardo.

Chot Reyes might be one who speaks with Kelly to come out of retirement as the former is his long-time coach.

Yeah, I agree with that, maybe coach chot talk to him as he is comfortable with the coaching style of coach Chot and he is now willing to play again. Under coach Chot he will get good minutes, and even if they have Erram already, I know he can still help to the team.

This is also a comeback of coach Chot in the PBA, so TNT should be an improved team this season.

Does anyone have an idea of what will be the set up this season? Still a bubble on a single venue or what?

I forgot that the article that I've read about the setup is going to be the same as the bubble again. Although there is a vaccine already, it's limited to be in the public or maybe that the PBA management have already bought their own secretly but I doubt that can happen.
The only option is still in a bubble until everyone and the public can avail to have the vaccine.

When did you read that article? Maybe that article is already outdated.

Things have changed a lot already, vaccine area available and this is not only for the public, I'm sure the PBA can afford to get their players vaccinated so they will not worry anymore of a possible pause of the season, there are plenty of vaccines coming and some are delivered already, if an ordinary individual will be given, I guess these pba players will get theirs as well.

I can't remember but that was months ago if I remember correctly. The vaccine that has come to us isn't open for the public, the vaccine that shall be open to the public is estimated going to arrive by May and the start of the season is by next month. I don't think that they'll be able to do that. And the ones that ordered the vaccines that are set to arrive are for the government front liners and essential workers, athletes I think, they're not on the priority list unless they'll be given doses for the teams and staff. Just as the issue today, there are choosy people that won't go with the sinovac but, astrazeneca is about to come.

I think this is a good news.

One of my childhood favorite players. A very flexible and strong guy. He's very athletic and I'm happy that he's not yet retiring and TNT still got his back.
Wishing him all the best and hope that he won't be one player that will get an injury.
