Honestly, canceling the whole season may not actually harm the current standing since All-Filipino, the first conference of the season has just started (only a single game played).
My question is, which conference will be suspended if it will be implemented that the two conference only will played in this season?
The Philippine cup has just started, so it means this conference will implemented? do they have a final words already about this?

As for the PBA's management final decision, there is no official announcement yet.
But if I will answer that based on my own view, the All-Filipino Conference can be canceled for good since it just started and continue to the next conference instead (Commissioners Cup - around June). But knowing the current Philippine medical status, it's impossible to fully control the pandemic virus within just a 2-3 month period. We might see a decline in the numbers of confirmed cases and an increase to recovery in the following weeks but to fully execute the PBA comeback, it needs at least 100% assurance that it's now safe to social gather.
Now, if we add another 3 months and let's say the virus was totally controlled (I hope so here in PH), PBA can now proceed to the last conference which is the Governor's Cup instead (officially commences at around the month of September), canceling totally the first 2 conferences.
Bottom line:
Honestly, canceling the whole season may not actually harm the current standing since All-Filipino, the first conference of the season has just started (only a single game played). Not difficult to implement it unlike in NBA where they are now in 3/4 of the season and just around 20 games left before the playoffs. As for the contract, they can adjust it instead as players organization should already aware of that.
Though Asaytono's family can surely cover all the expenses for his recovery, but a help whether big or small still matters. It is already not about the money but about the love 
. For sure he will recover faster as soon as he heard about this because he will feel that there are still many people who cares for him despite of being an old retired PBA player.
The help from the PBA is what matters as basketball player, he put his passion in the PBA and helping this organization to be more successful, I'm sure although these players received good salary during their time but their contribution to the revenue of the PBA is bigger that is why they deserved to help by the organization. . For sure he will recover faster as soon as he heard about this because he will feel that there are still many people who cares for him despite of being an old retired PBA player. 
They should consider this factors, COVID 19 is not a simple but a virus where can take a life in a short period of time, the PBA management should focus on how to avoid anyone being infected of this virus, instead of rushing things out, if it's possible to know all the details first even Corona is already been contained. The health is very important stuff best to think about it first before anything else.
The PBA is doing it's share in fighting this virus and I don't think they are rushing in resuming the games. They are closely monitoring the situation and making a plan out of it. The two-conference season will be implemented if things won't worsen, that's their plan and if this virus won't be contain still the soonest then we may see a one conference season this year.
PBA players and the organisation itself is helping the government on containing this COVID. We could see players donating their salaries for a good cause.
My question is, which conference will be suspended if it will be implemented that the two conference only will played in this season?

Things are not yet definite as how many conferences the PBA will play this season. The PBA commissioner said that they are open to all possibilities including the cancellation of the 45th season if things will not get better. I hope not because this season is somewhat special as it is the 45th and the PBA is planning to award the 45 greatest players.

Marcial not discounting possibility of cancelling entire PBA season
As I heard before, I think the PBA have allocated funds for this which they get from their revenue of this league, so maybe aside from personal donation from the PBA players, the PBA organization has money allocated for their retired players, especially players that made names in their career.
I haven't heard that before, but it is a good one, if so that is legitimate. Sad hearing this one i am once a Fan of Nelson Asaytono together with Patrimonio,Lastimosa and Capacio.
this is a Good initiative of the Association to Help those former Basketball players.
Hope Nelson may recover though he is in the right age now of having that attack.
Not only the PBA but other "Legends" as well would help Nelson Asaytono. this is a Good initiative of the Association to Help those former Basketball players.

Agree with you here, the passion is still there. . For sure he will recover faster as soon as he heard about this because he will feel that there are still many people who cares for him despite of being an old retired PBA player.

..so for this the PBA management should look up for this as a ground to cancel the season since the Covid-19 is not a joke and continuing season is bit suicide for the entire team since they might spread out the disease if one of them got infected.

Can you link us for some reports wherein PBA is rushing to continue the season? Or they want to continue even with the current situation? If there is, they are truly dumb but I don't think they are like that.
Before we do, PBA already knows that ahead to us.
They will not continue the conference and even they are greedy, the government will not allow that. And PBA is partnered with big people with big businesses. Even they will think of business, how come they can make profits if no people will come to watch on live. Even in a live game before this virus spread in the country, PBA audience in a live game is not that much (except when Ginebra is playing lol) so how worst today with the current situation?

What Covid-19 has done to PH sports
Poor Philippine Basketball Association. Already deprived of what could’ve been a grand celebration of its 45th anniversary, leading to a bigger Golden Year five years from now, it looks like the country and Asia’s oldest pro league has been forced to a two-conference format.

The adjustment is necessary as Philippines right now is still under lock down, people are in luzon are under enhanced community quarantine, and that's where the capital of Philippine businesses, so it's just right that PBA has to plan its future.
If NBA might cancel their season, PBA is certainly gonna adjust too, and we don't know what would happen in the future yet as the covid-19 is still actively destroying our lives.
The case in philippines is not controlled yet and the cases is increasing everyday so for this the PBA management should look up for this as a ground to cancel the season since the Covid-19 is not a joke and continuing season is bit suicide for the entire team since they might spread out the disease if one of them got infected.
I love PBA but hopefully they matter the health now rather than business.

It will not cancel its whole season as whole compose of 3 conferences. We are currently in the 2020 PBA Philippine Cup now, only one game was played yet then the conference was pause.
If the conference will be cancelled, there's two more conference remaining.

Back to PBA, JuneMar Fajardo has a chance to be the GOAT but I don't know the real criteria to be called that one. Stats and the number of the championship is truly not the basis, at least in NBA. Or maybe the nature of competition per year? Not sure though as it's difficult to say that this era is soft compare back then. It's unfair to all players.
Anyhow one thing for sure, JMF is one of the greats. He is still active so he can add more to his achievements.

We all know that selecting GOAT of the PBA is as hard as in the NBA because there is no criteria for such. While reading some stuff in the sports section, i stumble upon this sport's writer column and his criteria of selecting GOAT in the PBA, again this is just his opinion and this is subject to a debate
.Quote
Personally, though, here's why I can't vote for Fajardo as the GOAT.
He can't shoot free throws to save his "mega yacht."

You can read more of his article here ^^, interesting for me, how about you?
Yeah they are very much alike, because they are father and son lol. But kidding aside, I hope that Kobe will be as great as his father. Does he already a player in PBA? Its been a long time since I watch PBA and follow its news. And kobe is the youngest between the two right? And got a draft in the NBA?
PBA - No attempts have been made
NBA - No attempts have been made
Currently, he is playing for UP Fighting Maroon in UAAP. I don't know what his plan but prior UAAP he wants a professional career outside locals. He is now 22. He should rush so every year matters.

I thought Kobe Paras was there but when I read it, it was Benjie Paras, I was just surprise because TBH, it's the first time I saw Benjie in a picture with a hair. 
.. the I am not anymore interested in reading the content of the article. lol
.. the I am not anymore interested in reading the content of the article. lolActually, if Benjie Paras push his PBA career until the end, I think he will be the GOAT - but of course, it needs a number of championships. He's popular even prior to entering the PBA draft. He is expected to be one of the future greats even in his early years.
Paras is the most athletic player in the PBA at his height category. He is a monster during his prime. I never saw a player, the same height around him that is versatile at any position. Maybe Arwind Santos and Japeth Aguilar but not closest.
