@arwin100, I've seen and read that reports before and that's the reason why I was also expecting that Calvin will be back this season. But then the news came that wasn't including as the suspension was not lifted yet, we also don't know what calvin hasn't complied yet so we have no idea.

Source: PBA set to finally lift Calvin Abueva's suspension

Nah, we can still expect abueva like before. It is in his attitude about in his plays though it is effective for him because he was able to get a good support from the fans. PBA has started to become good now that NBA will going to start the FINALS and after that Filipino basketball fans can focused already on PBA. For now, we still need to watch the Miami vs. lakers best of seven series game and bet if possible. I am actually looking for a local betting plus one game on miami vs. lakers.

Phoenix still has one spot in case their best player will be eligible to play in the bubble. Each team is allowed to have a 25-man delegate and Phoenix at the moment still has 24.

My question is, if Calvin Abueva able to pass all the requrments before the deadline and presuming he can now play again, what would happen to RR Garcia? As far as I know he is served as Abueva's proxy in order to complete Phoenix's 15 man roster. I think it would be unfair for Garcia if they will remove him all of a sudden.

Is it possible to have a 16th man on the team ?

Abueva was not part of the 24-man delegation of Phoenix Super LPG for the bubble. The Fuel Masters initially included the enigmatic star on their list as he has been training with the team since last year.

The team still has one spot open in its bubble delegation, in case Abueva's ban is lifted.

BTW the deadline to enter the PBA bubble is on October 10, 11:59 p.m., there is still time for Abueva to complete the requirements and join his team.

He have powers to lift his suspension and I believe Calvin already learn his lesson for that incident, I wonder why they have bad blood and didn't let Calvin to go back again. Also the #Letcalvinplay  is trending now on facebook and I wonder the commissioner or the other govern bodies in PBA still insist to put him back on the court. For sure many fans will get more dissappointed if Abueva will still not be seen in this season.

Under the rules of the PBA bubble, the delegates can enter the bubble until October 10, 11:59 p.m. before it closes its doors to players, coaches, and staff. Marcial is also non-committal on the possibility that Abueva might eventually join the bubble before the October 11 resumption of the games.

Marcial shouldn't be the only one who has to blame. That kind of decision is discussed on the table alongside PBA boards and they are all agreed.

He also said that he's not unfair as Calvin understands too that there are things that needs to do.

If Calvin understands it, we should also go with the flow, and let's see what will happen next.

THE first of two batches of PBA teams arrived at the Clark Freeport on Monday, signaling the countdown of the restart for the 2020 Philippine Cup.

Magnolia led four other ballclubs that left for Pampanga, where the league has set-up a bubble in which the only conference of the season will be played in a compact, two-month stretch starting on Oct. 11.

Each team met at a specific pick-up point and were transported by buses courtesy of Genesis Transport Service.

The Hotshots were the first to arrive at the Quest Hotel in Mimosa shortly after noon, while TnT Tropang Giga, Terra Firma Dyip, Meralco Bolts, and the Phoenix Fuel Masters followed suit.

Shortly upon arrival, all players and team personnel were subjected to swab testing and advised to stay isolated in their respective rooms until the test results come out.

"Thankful sa PBA sa effort na ginagawa nila para matuloy ang liga," said Magnolia coach Chito Victolero.

"We'll just try our best on how to manage the situation inside the bubble."

Magnolia will be heading to the restart holding a 0-1 record after losing to defending champion San Miguel on opening night, 94-78, before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic forced the league to suspend the season.

Wow, that was very impressive, you still remember that? How old  are you man? that's crazy, a crazy FAN. haha.

I also read it and I feel angry for our Commissioner for real.

Yes, I'm familiar with him as he is a notable player on the 2019 draft. Already a veteran but just recently drafted in PBA. D

If I'm not mistaken, he hasn't played any single game in the PBA because of the injury and the pandemic that shutdowns the league.

I also read it and I feel angry for our Commissioner for real.

He is suspended for more than 15 months already and his monthly salary has been affected ever since. I hate to say this but he is the worst Commissioner we ever had so far. Hasn't yet to complete his requirements?? Well what more does The Beast needs to do in order for him to play in PBA?? Kinda disappointed as a PBA fan to see a player not playing for more than a year already.

It's official, Abueva won't be playing in the bubble.

BGSM also changed its team name before. If my memory serves me right, they changed to Gordon's Gin to promote the brand alongside the popular San Miguel Gin (the classic).

Mobiline Phonepals to Talk N Text. (Asi Taulava's Prime)

Welcoat Paint to Rain Or Shine. (a former PBL team)

Petron Blaze Master (SMB) - after the company bought the majority of the share of Petron Corp (that was big news back then).

Don't know about Alaska but I'm 100% sure Aces is not the original team name. Damn, I remembered my 90s conversation with my fellow PBA enthusiast in our hometown.

Thanks for the new info, I didn't know that, I thought they didn't change name, so only Alaska and Ginebra did not change their name, right?

I thought it's an import, lol.. I was like, wow! aren't they playing an ALL FILIPINO CUP, then why have an import to go with them in the Bubble, but then I read the full story and found out the player was drafted.

IIRC, the first player to accept offer from Japan is Kiefer which I find it a good move for him as he can always go back to PBA easily.

I've done some research with Welcoat Dragons and it is the current ROS Elastopainters so i think this is not the same time with Welcoat Dragons that they change the name San Miguel Beermen to Petron Blaze Boosters. I just remember the time when Junemar Fajardo was drafted in the PBA and it was Petron Blaze Boosters back then and the same time Chris Tiu was drafted by ROS Elasto Painters, that was way back in 2012.
