There's a good news but here is a worst news that could possible stop the bubble.

PBA player tests positive for COVID-19 in Clark bubble


Quote
MANILA, Philippines -- A PBA player has tested positive for COVID-19, the PBA announced in a hastily-called press conference on Sunday morning.

The player from Blackwater Elite has been transferred to the Athletes' Village in New Clark City, where he will be isolated in accordance with the league's protocols.

The entire Blackwater team is also being isolated.

Because of the development, the game between Blackwater and Rain or Shine this afternoon has been cancelled.

I'm afraid the PBA bubble will be halted with this bad news.

Oh my this could be a failure from the bubble and might the games will be suspended due to this unfortunate events. Hopefully they will conduct an immediate contact tracing so that they can determine on who are the healthy and who is not so they can isolate them ASAP. But let's hope they will not announce the cancellation of the bubble.

There was no announcement yet, maybe they are carefully evaluating things now because they can't let go of this event that they have already spent a lot, it's also possible that they will continue the bubble since most of these players are healthy so they will be Asymptomatic and they can still continue to play, they will only be quarantine once they go out to ensure they will not bring the virus to their families.

I just hope for the best cause this is the worst thing that could happen when they are inside the bubble, if one player got infected inside, then maybe almost all of them have contact with someone that have contact with that player. They have to test all of them, and as they've said they already begin a thorough contact tracing. But still, a big threat for all the players cause they know the virus is already inside. Hoping for the league to continue but of course with the safety of all the people involved.

They are in a bubble, everyone is prone to getting infected with the virus as they are playing physical sports, all the teams that Blackwater have played also played with other teams, so if you are trying to analyze, all of them might be infected with the virus.

I'm waiting for the news if the 2nd game will be suspended or not, I don't know if their website does provide an update information. As I checked in https://pba.ph/, there seems to be no update until now, so I guess it's a go for tonight's game.

Yo! you kill the fun right after this good news about Abueva's comeback, after reading the article it's really possible now to stop the bubble since there's already a player who tested positive.

PBA needs to take action as the virus is a no joke problem. if the spread continues, it's life that they are dealing with, not because players are active the possibilities of being seriously infected still there.

Let's pray for the best, tough decision but very important one for PBA' s management.

PBA has not announce yet that the bubble will be suspended, I think the first game will only be suspended which is the Blackwater vs ROS.

Hoping also for some great news, but with this news, it's hard to be confident that no other person was infected already.

COVID 19 really affects the PBA season and it really stops the season for the mean time. It is really good thing that it restarted last october 9 and it really proves that Philippine basketball won't get easily stopped by anything even the pandemic. The bad thing about this is the whole blackwater team is get isolated and fans are still hoping for their quick comeback on the season. It will be having a hard time for them to get back to the game after a long isolation.

Very good news PBA fans, the Beast is finally back.

With the lifting of the suspension, Calvin Abueva can play tomorrow against NLEX Road Warriors.

Wow, just can't wait how Calvin would perform.

I don't understand why coach Cariaso did not play Ebona in the remaining minutes of the game, the kid is very aggressive and can produce points in the paint, they settle with Manuel and Abu Tratter which good on defense only, they become so predictable as Manuel is their focal point of attack and also JVee Casio's costly turnover made them loss in the game, great defense by Chris Ross, as always.

At the current roster of the team, they might not get eliminated in the first round but they cannot beat the TNT and BGSM without one of their best players.

Agree with that, Calvin can boost the team's offense and defense.

Is anyone here waiting for Calvin Abueva to join the bubble? do you have any idea when he will be included? I saw the news of Topex Robinson being emotional about him. Is it really Marcial who's the reason why it seems that the process of Abueva getting into the bubble is slow?
(https://sports.inquirer.net/407297/emotional-topex-dedicates-phoenix-comeback-win-to-son-abueva)

Calvin Abueva is already in the bubble and participating in a Phoenix practice and he is now just waiting for a go signal from the commissioner's office as he already got his license renewed.

Don't know what the real score here but IMO, commissioner Marcial is the villain here on the eyes of the people but for sure he ha his reason why until now Calvin is still not playing.

He really is, no one.

Calvin is already in the bubble, there's no reason to allow him inside if he will not be given a chance to play, good thing Phoenix won their last game by their big come back, but that game we saw how inconsistent the team is, so I would say, Calvin return is really necessary and I hope if Marcial would delay his return, it will happen in the elimination as that's the time where he really is needed.

Meanwhile, we have a good game in the 2nd game, Alaska rally in the 2nd half and this is now a close game.

I think it's a low scoring game.

It's still a close game and suddenly their scoring in the 3rd quarter has increased.
Alaska keep fighting by playing well, against the Beerman, only less than 5 minutes left, this is where we see some interesting play, hope it will goes OT.

EBONA still playing well, if Alaska wins this game, he will again the best player of the game, it would be a 2 straight best player for him.

Congratulations to NorthPort for their first win.

Finally C. Stand had a good game but Nabong was also a big help for their first win, and he deserved to be the best player of his team for that game.
Nabong is really a great player, aggressive and really looking to win, he is like the Calvin Abueva of the team, I hope Northport will keep him and give him good minutes, if ever they will not be eliminated, they might rank at the last and will have a twice to beat disadvantage, but you can underestimate the NP in the elimination game.

I believe on that as he was really consistent in the roster, of all the bigs, he is the one who are playing well in the bubble, probably he was able to maintain his health during their off so he remains fit to play like he used to before.

On the opposing team, Perez is still consistent with his points but I'm happy to see that Adam has finally contributed well for his team, he tallied with 19 points along with 8 rebounds, I think he has already adjust on the physicality.
He just need his game keep going and he can contribute to his team, more games so he will be tested, we need consistency now only a one game show up.
One game is not enough to conclude, you are right so we will see what his performance in their next game.

Game today;

DYIP vs Northport (1st game)
A team that needs a win, they both are struggling in the conference so far, they are still winless so one team should have a win after this game.
Northport is the favorite at -4, however, I believe that DYIP is the better team here, so I'm betting on the ML.
There's no reason to bet on Northport if C. Stand will continue to struggle, the team seems to be relying on C. Stand, so that result an easy loss for them.
You are right, both are struggling teams and we don't know who will win though Northport here is the favorites, so I think underdog is a good bet here.

Good luck, might have the same bet with you here.


Alaska vs SMB (2nd game)
Should be a good game to witness, my bet defends on the outcome of the first game as I got my money "all in" in the first game.
Great match up, Alaska has been playing well in the last few games, they already found their grove but they have limited people who would score, so let's see how they'll stop the SMB which is a better team than them IMO.
