Pakipot ng kaunti si Al Chua Lol

Chua said: "There is no bad blood. I think he's mature enough to realize that what he did is wrong."

"I've been very busy with work the past few weeks and I am looking forward to just enjoying the holidays so hindi ko muna iniisip yan," the former Ginebra coach said.

"Maybe after the holidays, we can talk in person," Chua added.

of course naman. chua won. di umubra ang drama ni greg. may pa foreign offer pa. hehe. with his antics he lost a multimillion bonus. gsm should just trade him. they showed they can win without him. greg felt that gsm will not win a championship without him.plus wala nang ibubuga yan. old and slow.
 
Since its now almost inevitable that CJ Perez will go to SMB, I wonder who SMB will give up for Perez? An ageing Arwind "Bagyo" Santos who is now 39 yrs old? Or maybe SMB will give up another marginal player like a Louie Vigil or a Bambam Gamalinda as if to say "eh dalawa namang players ang pinalit namin for CJ Perez". I say dalawang walang kwentang players for a legit superstar. Lolo Arwind may still be playing at a high level & doesn't really play like a 39 year old player, but in 2 yrs time, bagsak na ang laro nyan. Halos wala ng value yan. It would be like trading your 2019 Toyota Fortuner for a 1989 model Mitsubishi Corolla plus a motorcycle. Its absolutely a lopsided trade, shitty trade at that.

That's what I really hate about SMC & PBA eh. Those ridiculous trades are really a huge turn-off. I think even a No. of SMB fans are turned off with those shitty trades SMB has done these past years.
 
A fairer trade would be Perez for Lassiter or Perez for Moala Tautuaa. I think not too many fans would complain with such set-up. But knowing how greedy & garapal SMC people are, I doubt they will give up any of their good players. Eh hawak nila sa leeg si Commisioner Marcial eh. San Miguel is doing a mockery of PBA rules to get everything it wants & nobody can do anything to stop it. If there's a term "getting away with murder", I say SMC is "getting away with swindling" while everybody is watching.

Columbia on the other hand is playing whore to SMC. Columbia doesn't deserve to be in the PBA. It is SMC's bitch.

If this shitty things continue to happen, I would rather see PBA collapse. SMC & Columbia is destroying the integrity of the sport. Binababoy nila ang basketball.

Erram did OK at TNT.. Just he need better back up.. D. Semerad is a mismatch when he defend guys like Japeth, Junmar, etc.. He needs better back up.. They should pursue Rodney Brondial via free agency..

Can't say anything about Erram, because yeah, he did well, especially in the Finals. However, TNT gave up a lot for him. That, and Kelly's retirement, left their bench a little shallow. They have to improve their bench.
 
I hope PBA can go back to the way they went about with trades during the 90's and early 2000's. Back then it was marquee player for another marquee player. It would do PBA some good to set a more strict and rigid standard, not just basing on matching the salaries. For example, the Pringle trade. Him being a marquee player considering his individual stats and overall win-shares for NP for the last 3 seasons, should have been traded with Scottie Thompson as the replacement.

Or like in the NBA. Make the team receiving the marquee player give up numerous picks.

Yes, 1st round picks for 3 consecutive seasons would have done it justice, since being in NP or the other 2 farm teams is obviously just a phase for marquee rookies' careers anyways, and then it's obviously not the farm teams' mandate to keep them for the long term. It's all about making it fair, on paper at least.

Doesn't really matter since the farm teams would rather have cheap players that they can trade to the mother teams after they get too expensive for them to keep.
 
With the EASL coming up, league parity's gonna get worse. The qualified teams would only try to get stronger. That probably means more farm teams and more lopsided trades.

That's what's happening in Europe. Smaller teams sell their good players to big teams to keep afloat. Big teams want as many good players as possible to keep them competitive for continental competitions. In the UEFA Champions League, for example, most of the teams are bigger teams.

It's like a loan system in European football. Big teams loan their young players to smaller teams to gain experience, then when they're good enough, the mother team takes the player back.

However, in this case, the loaning team gets the option to buy the player.

PBA wants a 3-conference format: https://tv5.espn.com/basketball/pba...pba-hopes-stage-three-conferences-46th-season

This has got to be a joke. To think that Kume Marcial was part of Eala's think tank. If the PBA is serious about supporting Gilas, they should really adjust the schedule to give more time to prepare.

And let's stop with the All-Filipino conferences. We need to play against imports full-time.

due to pandemic they incurred losses. three conference format maybe will let them recuperate.

Just a thought about this new format. I may be crazy for thinking this, but it may help the PBA adjust to a fiscal schedule. The PBA can hold the first conference (likely an All-Filipino) before the FIBA Asia Cup, then continue towards the import conferences, which are fortunately concurrent with the EASL. Filipinos have to get used to playing with (and against) imports the whole season, especially teams with EASL aspirations. FIBA breaks may also help with the season adjustment.

Hopefully, that's the standard format. Two import conferences from September/October to May/June.

If farm and indie teams in the PBA can be half the organization Borussia Dortmund (great youth development system and sells their marquee players without sacrificing overall team depth) is, i'd be really impressed.

I think a double round Robin all Filipino conference + 1 single round Robin import conference is the best solution.
Teams play the minimum 33 games per season and if you want more exposure? Make the playoffs.
 
Hopefully also they retain the atleast 3 playing games per week per team, it gives the fans a chance to watch the teams and be more invested
