To what point that PBA will be having another tournament instead of 5x5 professional games. I think it's all about money and of course players who will join this tournament will bring nothing on international tournaments.

You have no idea about the benefits of tournaments like that. That's already part of the basketball system.

Launching that kind of league will give chance to others to be scout by teams. Players that can't afford to enroll in top universities that is good at basketball will able to showcase their skills. Money? Of course, sponsorship will be made but that will benefit the company too since PBA is a big market. I don't know why you are negative about this. It's not the first time I believed and they held the same event back then although not an official league to what it's planning right now.

If GSM and TNT will face in the finals surely huge fans will be there to support PBA will gain back the crowds.


Even if its Meralco, it will still draw a big crowd because Ginebra here is the one that has a lot of fans.

What I like about a Meralco match up vs GSM because the Meralco import can defend Brownlee very well and in the past, he beat Brownlee for the best import award and he could possibly do the same this season.

When Durham's performance is good, its hard to bet against his team, just my observation.

TNT will be having a hard against Meralco if Pogoy will not play, i hope two weeks is enough for him to recover from that injury.

That's correct, Meralco is very deadly and I don't see anyone from TNT who can stop Durhan, even their import.

Pogoy can contribute maybe at least 20 points per game and that will be miss a lot if he will not play, 2 weeks is too long, maybe he can come back but every game matters in this series.

without POGOY, I hope Rey Parks will fill that gap so he can help his team to win and he will prove to the people that TNT did not make a mistake on getting him from Blackwater. Both Maliksi and Ray Parks who came from Black water can now experience a semi finals, that trade is good for them.

Parks still trying to figure out his spot, luckily Castro still filling the gap and with McDaniel they still have the chance. Though we don't know what
will happen since this two teams are sister companies, we also need to consider what will be the call from the pangilinan group of companies.

If GSM and TNT will face in the finals surely huge fans will be there to support PBA will gain back the crowds.

PBA launches 3×3 league

The Philippine Basketball Association is establishing a 3×3 tournament dubbed “Tatluhan sa PBA,” the league has announced.  “This is in cooperation with the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, which has been planning this for quite some time,” Commissioner Willie Marcial told the Inquirer on Friday.

To what point that PBA will be having another tournament instead of 5x5 professional games. I think it's all about money and of course players who will join this tournament will bring nothing on international tournaments.

The objective of that league is for Filipino players to be acquainted more on the 3x3 rules as it is very different from that of 5x5. Active PBA players will not be playing on this proposed league so this maybe somewhat not connected to the PBA.

The 1-8 matchup of this playoffs. We know already how strong NLEX is when they have Olu but they've become stronger when they acquired another import in Harris.

We tend to forget how strong the Northport also when they acquired Stand and they have a very underrated import.
Today, they beat the NLEX by 25 points and that is coming from the big effort of their import and stand who scored 39 and 24 points respectively.

The final score was really unexpected, 115-90 and its a big win by the Northport.
now, it should be the Northport which will be the favorites in the 2nd game.
Unexpected? Not really because we saw the NP winning against the NLEX already in the eliminations and they did it again by shutting down Harris with just 12 points on that game yesterday.

Yes I know how strong NLEX is on the eliminations but the NP roster is better than them for me. My stand with this matchup is 55-45 going NLEX but with this win, I will go 60-40 with NorthPort because of the momentum shift.

I don't know but I want to bet on NP for the game tomorrow because I have a feeling that they will make an upset this time. I would like to see NP and Ginebra face on the Semis Cheesy.

regarding the injury of Pogoy, this is the only latest information I read online.

Pogoy hopes back injury won't keep him out of SEA Games, Govs' Cup semis

He was taken by a stretcher after the game, so probably the injury was serious, but let's hope he can play as h is a big factor for the win of the TNT and they need a reliable 3 point shooter who is also a good defender at the same time.

Their next battle is harder as they will face the Meralco Bolts, though its just a sister company but I don't think they will take it lightly.

TNT will be having a hard against Meralco if Pogoy will not play, i hope two weeks is enough for him to recover from that injury.

I just want to confirm though, is this semi finals a best of 5 series? anyone?

Yes, it is a best of five series.

What a big surprise on this game, I thought Magnolia will take game one and will have a do or die in game 2 as they were having a comfortable lead entering the 4th quarter, but... what just happened? again, they allow a team to come back and beat them, what a waste of effort by this team.
i believe that it wasn't a waste of time mate because we can see that they exceed all efforts just to win this game,but the opponent is more good than what they have so in the end magnolia is beaten but i am sure fans are proud for their 1st and 2nd quarter advantage.


Fans would only think that way if Magnolia is really a big underdog against the TNT, but its not, they are almost the same in terms of stats in general but its just that TNT had a better record this conference. Fans will be disappointed because they had a lead, they don't only have a edge in 1st and 2nd, but more so in the 3rd quarter but TNT manage to beat all their efforts in just one quarter, as a fan that's really disappointing.
Unexpected mistakes from Jalalon I don't really expect him to play that way, and adding to that is the contribution of Lee especially in this dying minutes. If he able to penetrate and help the team not to rely everything with their import. But let's move on and accept the fact that TNT have a bigger heart to
win this and advance to the semis, They deserve it with how they play keeping the distance close.

If you are watching the game and you bet on the Magnolia, you won't say that we just have to appreciate their effort.
Man, they are up big time before entering the 4th quarter but they allow the TNT to have a big rally to beat them, what would the players feel after the game, even themselves will surely be disappointment since they just let go of the opportunity to have a do or die game and could possibly give them a way to be in the semis this conference.

anyway, congratulations for TNT and hopefully Pogoy is alright and he can play in the Semi Finals, TNT needs him for sure.
there are still time for Pogoy to make this possible and right TNT really needs him in semis and of course Finals.

The 2nd game has started already, we are in the 2nd quarter now and as expected, it is a low scoring game.
Hotshots are on the lead and it looks like these two underdog will win tonight, I know the game is not over but I have a feeling Magnolia will win tonight.

I have put my bet prior to the game so I am a little bias with my pick here.

How about you guys, did you bet on TNT tonight?
Magnolia is in lead though there's still 2 more quarters but  they are really playing well and trying to extend this twice to beat, we never know
what will happen till the last minute has been ended, good luck to your bet mate.

Earlier Batang Pier survive and extend their chance to do or die, that game have a lots of actions, Ehram and Varilla might be getting suspensions after that coalitions between Pier's import and CStan.

The 2 matchups is over already and my team (SMB) lose already Sad. Sad but that is what it is. Lets move on to these 2 matches. Will share my opinion between these 2 matchups.

Northport Batang Pier - Nlex Road Warriors (+5.5 vs -5.5)
The 1-8 matchup of this playoffs. We know already how strong NLEX is when they have Olu but they've become stronger when they acquired another import in Harris. They're last 2 games of the elimination ended up in a lose and don't forget that they lost against NorthPort 102-94 IIRC.

This matchup is a close one closer than the Bolts - Aces since the NP have CStan and their import is very athletic. We know how CStan is playing right now in NP and with the help of their import Qualls, they have a chance of winning into this series. My stand here is I will go 55-45 in favor of the Road Warriors but I will not be surprised if NP beat them in twice this series because I know how strong they are too.

Tnt Katropa - Magnolia Hotshots (-3.5 vs +3.5)
Between their last game, the Hotshots won against the Katropa.

The Hotshots are the defending champs right now but they have a twice to beat disadvantage against them. I will not say more about this match up because I'm excited to watch it but my stand here is I will go 55-45 against the Hotshots right now Cheesy.

Let's move on to the next games today, SMB is already out of the competition and no grand slam for them.

Today's match up line based on the sportsbook I bet with.

Northport Batang Pier - Nlex Road Warriors (+5.5 vs -5.5)

Tnt Katropa - Magnolia Hotshots (-3.5 vs +3.5)

TNT and Hotshots game is interesting to watch, both imports is good and have it's individualities. chances is possible for Hotshots knowing that they are the defending champion of this conference and they are competitive. While in the other hand, TNT has not been seen for sometime getting this title might be a good start for them to bring back those glory days.
