Yeah Brondial might be a good option. Brondial will definitely not let Hodge win on the boards. But can he take advantage of Hodge on offense? Hodge sags off his man and bogs down June Mar. They have to exploit Hodge's defense to make it work.

Nenad gives a lot of freedom to Banchero and Newsome, though. Maliksi as well. I don't think Bolick will have much of a problem.

Marcial bares plans for the 49th season which starts on Aug. 8:
-PBA teams to still play in EASL
-Unlimited height for Commissioner's Cup
-A foreign team could play in the Commissioner's Cup
-Possibility of two imports in Comm's Cup if foreign team joins
-Davao to host All-Star
Here's more:
-Governors' Cup will have a two-group format to be followed a crossover quarterfinals
-Teams will face those in their group twice
So, there are 60 total group stage games between teams within the same group. Then add the crossover group games, it's 96 elims games. That adds 15 more gamedays to the Governors' Cup, extending the season by a month.

I also heard Kume mention that each team will play once against the teams from the other group as part of the eliminations.

This is if there will be only 12 teams in that conference.
If this is the case, I don't see any sense for a separate import conference. Just merge the Governor's and Commissioner's Cup.

If my understanding is right, teams will have 10 games each against their groupmates while 6 games teams outside their group for a total of 16 elimination games.

The 16 is per team. 96 is the total number of elims games across the league.
Go with decent-sized arenas nearby NCR, especially for non-Ginebra games.Attack

"Commissioner Willie Marcial said during Wednesday’s press briefing that the Governors’ Cup will see the 12 teams be divided into two groups and will play a double round-robin elimination round within their same bracket.
With the format, each team will play 10 games in the elimination round, instead of the usual 11 when a single round-robin tournament were enforced in other conferences."
I don't know but I don't think that this is what the fans want.

At least there is change even just a little change for now. I might go back watching PBA online, or in tv or maybe even live because of removal of height limit on import and the propose two import conference will make it a more interesting and challenging league. However to get back my full interest in pba, I have to see the following changes: Bring back draft lottery to prevent tanking, 1 or at least 2 conference only to give more time for international competition, more legit teams be added, no more farm teams and add a division two for relegation zone (maybe a tie up with mpbl to turn it into a division two)sigpic
