Bad news for PBA, it looks like PBA is now threaten to postponed games amid coronavirus fears.
There are already reports about people infected in Manila, so this means people won't be going to the crowded places and this would affect the sales of the PBA this season.

Actually, I can't consider it as bad news solely for PBA even their revenue will be affected since it's a must thing to do and necessary. Prioritizing people's health over profit. 

And besides, it's not just PBA who is affected but the majority of services, companies, establishments, etc. here in the country as well. Actually, the NBA is also planning to play on an empty arena if the virus infection spreads more.

The outbreak is really unstoppable. I think several people already infected in Manila alone but not yet checked.



I loss a big amount of money but that was just the first game, I think I should stick with my strategy to bet on the underdog.

Just to clear, SMB is not considered an underdog on that game.

The reason also why the Moneyline odds are close.

I lose my bet on this game, I was thinking Magnolia would easily beat the SMB but I was wrong, they showed that they can still dominate inside and Moala Tautuaa was just so smart with the pick and roll plays, all of them did great especially the 3 point shooting, that kills the Magnolia as they don't shoot 3s pretty well and the SMB's defense is really good.
Me too, I'm shocked with the result. I never think that SMB can't have a chance to beat MAG but mate their 16 point lead until the clock stops is what I didn't exp3ct at all Shocked. It was so impressive that they already build a good team harmony after the absence of Fajardo. Props to Mo! He really did a great job yesterday night. He is now proving us that he can also fulfill Abay's duty so for me he definitely deserved to get respect. It is not a "chamba", he is good and improving further.
I got carried away with my feelings, I was too confident on the capability of the Magnolia this all Filipino Cup but I was disappointed.
I would say I have a bad start of the season, I loss a big amount of money but that was just the first game, I think I should stick with my strategy to bet on the underdog.

Congratulations to Junmar Fajardo for his 6th consecutive PBA MVP awards in this Philippines Basketball Association season 44.

He truly demonstrated everything and deserved the throphy of being MVP.
Being a fan of him means a lot of this achievement to me. Does anyone here a Junmar fan?. Cheesy

I have noticed that people especially in social media, consider SMB's win as a big deal just because they won without JuneMar. I don't see how it became special. SMB can still match with other teams even with no Kraken on their lineup and they are still a contender.

We can't deny the fact that SMB is Fajardo's team as he is a vital piece whenever they won a championship, that is why a win without him is something special in the eyes to ordinary basketball fans.

I agree with you that even without JMF15, they can still win games in the eliminations but i expect future opponent of SMB are now scouting Mo and design defensive plays to stop or at least slow him down and it's not that difficult to do as he is not so dominant down low.

That's for sure, Mo has a lot of open shots because the defense was not focus on him, if he will be scouted, maybe the SMB will struggle.
They don't drive too often, they just rely on their jump shooting especially the 3 point shooting so they win at a big market.

I was expecting that Chris Banchero could provide some help but it didn't happen, I miss the way he played like when he was still a star in Alaska, I wish Magnolia could utilize him instead of forcing the passes to the inside when they aren't effective.

Tautuaa will not earn the league's Most Improved Player if he isn't capable of this position. His strength is already recognized even before his PBA career and that's the reason why he became the top pick last 2015 draft. In SMB, he's now receiving lots of playing time in absence of JuneMar. That's how complete the SMB team is both starting and bench squad.

Even the San Miguel Beermen can't play the 6 times (consecutive) MVP, they manage to win the game with the help of the Most Improved player MO Tautua.
I manage to win Smiley But this conference will be difficult for the SMB team as we saw JUNEMAR still in bad condition to play a game.
This might be a long process of healing but still hoping that the guy can play in the playoffs.
APAY is the best player in the court especially when it is an all-Filipino cup.

Do you know who won the 44th awarding in this league? if now and interested i made a post about that.

Odds update before the first game of this conference.
San Miguel Beermen vs Magnolia Hotshots.
The odds is favor on the Magnolia Hotshots now, for me, June Mar Fajardo's injury really got big impact on the odds since this is all-filipino-cup, I'm really sad for June Mar Fajardo and for the team San Miguel Beermen (btw, nice entrance for the 6 times MVP, JMF)
No Junemar no problem for SMB, Tau fill in and the rest of the starters really work together to win this first game. TR7 show how impacting he is once he got the rhythm of the game. Beermen play well good rotations from the coaching staff and a working play for each players who are inside the court, expect more from this team even without the 6 time MVP.

The reason I say Ginebra is still intact because they still performed well with or without Slaughter. They already used to cover the hole when Slaughter got injured. And take note, they win a championship without Slaughter. Although imports play a big role in that, the locals' lineup is still complete. They also played in the finals in All-Filipino Cup without Slaughter on-board. Take note at that conference, they faced being eliminated 4 times but still reach the finals.
If you will observe the Ginebra's roster within the past years, there are not that much changes. This is because their current roster right now is a strong roster already and they are a championship contender team with or without the Import. The addition of Slaughter helped the Ginebra a lot but as you said, with or without Slaughter they are a championship contender team.  If we see the Japeth Aguilar in the last conference where they win against Meralco, they have a high chance to win a championship again.

TNT is over hyped right now because they got Erram in a 3 team trade. There are many strong teams right now in this Conference. NorthPort have CStan, Magnolia have Sangalang, SMB have Tautuaa and Ginebra have Aguilar. Yes they are a strong team but I will go with Ginebra or SMB with this conference as champion Smiley. SMB fan here Cheesy.

Great to see that people here are not only speaking of SMB's dominance in the Filipino Cup, now that JMF is out, it seems like the betting odds will be balance, other teams has a good chance now,.. but I am just curious, do you we have like a sort of PBA futures or who will win in this conference betting?
it was not presented yet in our favorite crypto sports book,
No PBA futures in any crypto sportsbook AFAIK, but we can still enjoy betting every game, remember that the first game will be Sunday in the Philippines so we will certainly have time to enjoy it and that is the great opening game for SMB and Magnolia, it's sure a physical game.


so what about we will make it as a bet in our local?
I doubt many will be interested, you run an NBA competition but only few joined, including me. lol.

So in here, I consider Ginebra as one of the dominant team in the upcoming All-Filipino Conference even Slaughter isn't on their lineup now.

We will see about that, the pressure is on them now but hopefully they'll prove the doubters wrong because they don't perform well this conference, people would think that they are only a good team because of their import and because of Greg when in all Filipino.

I believe we have a lot of gamblers in the forum who loves Philippines Basketball particularly PBA, that's why I'm bringing this outside the local.

Let's discuss the current events, news, and the games here. You may also share you bets here if you want to help fellow gamblers to win or ask some opinion from our fellow gamblers here.

The PBA has a short conference only but they also have short break, so if we are betting often in this games, we can easily familiarize the teams since there are only few teams compared to the NBA.

Hopefully we can make a good and helpful discussion in this thread.
Upon checking there are only 12 teams in PBA so your right that it is not that hard to familiarize the behavior of every team but I am not so sure also whether it will give us a big chances of winning. The game can be thrown easily if the team would like to especially that I also heard some news that some of PBA teams are doing it because the players have bet to themselves either they win or loss.

But if somehow PBA will not behave like this way again then I love to try in betting in PBA games as I usually bet in NBA games but I so unlucky in terms of my betting choices.

Honestly, the trade is overrated. I'm not really expecting that Erram is the game changer although I like TNT to at least take the chip this conference. SMB isn't only the challenge they will face even with or without Junemar on board. Brgy. Ginebra is still intact,
They are not anymore, Gregzilla left them,
The reason I say Ginebra is still intact because they still performed well with or without Slaughter.
Indeed. For me Ginebra is stronger without Greg. (How do i say it hmm) He weakens his team because the game seems like a 4 vs 5 situation every time he is in. He is slow which is understandable because of being massive so we are expecting that he will at least be an effecrive defender and rebounder in the paint, but the sad reality is, he wasn't. Actually, I'm more amazed with Thompson's ability to sneak rebounds Grin.

The bottomline, what I'm trying to say is that Ginebra remains its strong force without Greg ~ change my mind.
