No way.. Abueva is a superstar.. He can bring a team into a contender.. Banchero is a second rated PG.. Not on a level of Lee, Pringle and Castro.. Value of Abueva on Magnolia is Paul Lee.. Magnolia won this trade.. And Phoenix will be like Powerade.. Expecting in the future Wright and Perkins will be traded..

We also dont know Abueva's real age. If he really is 33 then Magnolia won, if the rumors are true though then LOL

Abueva is a ticking time bomb, despite his recent attitude change any moment he could snap, Phx saved itself from a lot of headaches plus they got a quality PG in Banchero and 2 draft picks in a loaded draft, for now its a win for Phx.

Every time Abueva's antics backfire on him, he becomes a liability to the team. However, if he plays good, then the team benefits from his talent and energy.

in retrospect, kinda unfair for Baste to field a prime Abueva against 18-22 yr old kids haha, i remember the rumors of Abueva taking 8 yrs to finish High School, plus his dubious birth certificate,

Calvin is a discipline athlete (in terms of protecting his body) despite more than 1 year ban eh he's still nurturing his body in great shape.. Nevermind that rumors.. Abueva is an impact player.. Banchero is inconsistent player.. And Phoenix can get guards in the draft.. I think Phoenix will be on sale.. Expecting Wright and Perkins to be traded..

If you considered what Alaska got for Calvin (1st round pick that became Ahanmisi and Dehesa) when compared to the Banchero trade (Brondial and Herndon) than Alaska got more for Banchero for sure. Anyway its fair enough if we are really debating the deal. I honestly think Abueva is like 36 now and Magnolia also gave up more draft capital so Phoenix won.

true, saka May palang Phx wants to get rid of Abueva because of his off court issues which is a distraction for the team, maybe the deal/trade was already done by May and SMC just wanting to get an assurance that Calvin is properly screwed, though I agree with @robert about Abueva's star power, but it is somehow negated by his antics, Alaska was right when they traded him to Phx, though they could have acquired more imho.

another big question, can Chito Victolero tame the beast? Coach Topex is somehow responsible for Calvin's attitude change last year.

Calvin is still on probation so hell probably be a good boy for now.

Now that Calvin is in SMC's empire, I hope he explodes with his antics once more. Anything that is hazardous to SMC empire would put smile on my face.

Money and incentives fixed Romeo's attitude, but i doubt that will work on Abueva as he is on another level, he's like a pandora's box for SMC

The age thing.

Cant pba just easy verify it from psa?

Pba office accepted a fake birth cert???
 
Sikatrix said:
Abueva's padrino is the governor of Pampanga. The papers might be legit PSA even if his age isnt.

aside from being the governor of that province, he is also an alleged gambling lord and was implicated 20 years ago in the Estrada impeachment case. Most likely the PSA was able to produce a legit birth certificate for Abueva , only way to prove it now is for those who produced the legit birth certificate to speak out
 
Pardo says they are not ruling out trading Abueva for a more lucrative offer. Maybe they could consider trading him and the 10th pick/Corpuz for Standhardinger.
 
CS in Magnolia will solidify SMC's hold on the league. Other teams will literally be playing for scraps.

Why let go of Abueva when they can get both Abueva and CS for a bunch of role players LOL!

Or maybe to eventually ship Abueva to Bgy. Tagay.

36? Good thing Phoenix traded him. No matter his performance last season Father time will catch up soon especially for players that rely on their athleticism. Trade him while he still has value.

officially he is listed as 33 years old (born 4 February 1988) but rumors circulating a decade a go that he was 4-5 years older, so 36-38 ang posibleng age nya, not to mention him being soy sauce
 
One thing I can say

If Matthew Wright will be traded next.

Phoenix is obviously sold already to .......(I dont know, hope not SMC)
