Did you know that Gary David, Ronald Tubid, Homer Se, and Wynne Arboleda are close friends? Barkada/tropa yan sila. If I'm not mistaken, they were teammates before at Air21/FedEx. "KAP" in this tweet refers to Wynne Arboleda. He wants his bestfriend Ronald Tubid (born in Iloilo; an "ILONGGO") to join him at Air21. And perhaps "PURE ENERGY" Gary David will join them soon and kumpleto na yung tropa.

Rain or Shine thinking of trading first round pick
Rey Joble, InterAKTV · Thursday, August 9, 2012 · 9:36 pm
Newly-crowned Governors’ Cup champion Rain or Shine proved that it is one of the deepest teams in the league after winning the first title in franchise history. Because of that, coach Yeng Guiao hints that the team may not need to reload in the upcoming rookie draft.
“We don’t want any more duplication in our players’ positions. Most of the talented players who will enter the draft are forwards, wingmen and guards,” Guiao told InterAKTV in a telephone interview. “What we need now is a legitimate center. Right now, the only center I see who’s ready for the PBA is June Mar Fajardo.”
The Elasto Painters won the Governors’ Cup with Best Import Jamelle Cornley manning the slot for the team.
Fajardo, a 6-foot-10 center out of Cebu, is expected to be picked first overall by the Petron Blaze Boosters. Rain or Shine owns the No. 7 pick in the draft, and Guiao said the team may trade it.
The rebuilding Alaska Aces, which owns the second pick in the draft, expressed their interest in the Rain or Shine pick.
“I’ve inquired on the No. 7 pick to see what can we offer,” said Alaska coach Luigi Trillo.
But things could still change between now and the draft, which is set on August 19, according to Rain or Shine assistant coach Caloy Garcia.
“We have an injured point guard,” he said, referring to Rookie of the Year Paul Lee, who is expected to be out four to five months after shoulder surgery, “and we have several players with expiring contracts.”
Garcia also noted that Gabe Norwood and Jeff Chan may still be playing for the SMART-Gilas Pilipinas national team, which is scheduled to play in the William Jones Cup in August and the FIBA Asia Cup in September.
He added that the team would evaluate each offer.
“We have to find out what can they give in return. If it’s a player of our need, then a trade is a possibility. If it’s a future pick, then it should be of equal value,” he said.
Rain or Shine would also need to re-sign several key players. Seven Elasto Painters are up for renewal this offseason. PBA All-Defensive Team member Jireh Ibañes, Ronjay Buenafe, Jervy Cruz, JR Quinahan, Ronnie Matias, Chito Jaime, and Jonathan Uyloan all have expiring contracts.

YENG GUIAO: Isa sa mga scenarios namin is we trade the pick on DRAFT DAY. We tab the rookie the other team wants for their player.

The Governors’ Cup will once again feature a 6-foot-5 height limit. Rain or Shine, led by 6-foot-5 Best Import Jamelle Cornley, won the recently-concluded Governors’ Cup this past season.
But a change has been approved for the format of the tournament, which will do away with the round-robin semis. Instead, it will feature quarterfinal and semifinal playoff rounds, like the Philippine Cup and the Commissioner’s Cup.

Imports with no height limit will continue to strut their wares in the PBA after the league’s Board of Governors finalized the format of the league for next season.
The Commissioner’s Cup will continue to have no ceiling for reinforcements, despite suggestions to impose a height limit for the conference.
A source privy to the discussions said a proposal had been made to cap the import ceiling at 6-foot-9 for the conference, but the board thumbed it down.
Last season, 6-foot-10 Denzel Bowles won the Best Import award before leading the B-MEG Llamados to the Commissioner’s Cup title. He used that performance as a springboard for a stint with the New Orleans Hornets in the NBA Summer League.

if he plays in China, will he make in time for the Comms Cup?? What if his team refuses to release him?? Sayang. This is why I want the Pinoys-only rule abolished: We lose out on quality imports which improve both the profile and the standard of play in the league. I'm no businessman but I hope the PBA can work towards such a change.
Pano kung sa tatlong pick niyo-- 1 lang matira? Pero may darating na isang balikbayang puro tattoo at isang Toneladang labada? Di pa sure ha
Washinton and 2 picks?!
