Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League

Question: Has the MPBL become a more popular league to watch than the PBA?

I live in the US, so I'm disconnected from it all. My friend was telling me that the MPBL is more popular because of all the politics, corruption, etc... with the PBA. Not that the MPBL doesn't have any, but it's not as ridiculous.

MPBL games are full of people, while PBA games have very very few people...

Free admission/tickets for mpbl games. TV ratings would be the true metric

the fact that mpbl doesnt have a consistent tv coverage is already a sign

Kent segura RIP played with arellano years back. Only 26 or 27 if im not mistaken, still young and lots of years ahead of him. Sadly this is the risk of playing in those dayo/panalay games were money is involved.

RIP, dayo/ligang labas games entails a lot of risk due to large bets, warlords and gambling lords further complicate things

That will haunt him for the rest of his life, such a horrific memory

I think the WMPBL should telecast the game at MPTV channel as well

because many people had no chance to watch the game @ IBC 13 despite that scheduled Wed and Sat games

"tsambahan lang kung i-telecast eh". trans. goodluck

now on the other platform like FB, worse if you are in a particular area that is almost a dead spot/weak signal....

well goodluck basketball junkies who are experiencing the same thing.

same thing with Jr. MPBL I simply don't understand why it was scrapped all together in the MPTV channel

that's a bummer...considering that's part of my morning couch time during non-working days.

I do hope those lurkers on this platform who manages those leagues may re-consider our request.

I'm speaking on behalf of many who doesn't had the audacity to speak out.​

They've loaded up quite nicely. They also added the la sallian trio of joshua david, cj autria and raven gonzales, ue guard jack cruz dumont, pros dave ildefonso and encho serrano. Very deep pocket by the owner.

I do hope the television deal may also include to televise the WMPBL and Jr. MPBL on that particular channel.

because FB and Youtube are not reliable esp. if the signal is weak on a particular area.

it's a bummer.

Under the deal, select games of the 7th MPBL Season, which tips off on Saturday at the Capital Arena in Ilagan, Isabela, will be aired starting 6 p.m. on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays on Solar Sports’ free TV and cable channels.

“‘Yung reach nila (Solar) sa fans all over the Philippines,” said Pacquiao.
