Philippine PBA Trades, Releases, Sign-ups, Rumours (vol. III)

[C2Hamm]

So Snow Badua is reporting about a rumor that Caelan Tiongson's camp is refusing to sign a rookie scale contract and is asking for a regular PBA contract and ROS management has apparently put Tiongson in the trading block. There are talks that ROS and Meralco have discussed a trade involving Tiongson in exchange for Alvin Pasaol plus draft picks

im sticking with my story: "redundant" hehehe

Those picks will be valuable eventually, ROS knows how to survive in a 2 empire driven league, flip disgruntled assets for draft capital

Well Tiongson is 32 so I get where he is coming from. A regular job in the US probably pays more than rookie scale. This is also why Kameron Vales didn't play for converge.

WIth regards to ROS I think they should play Santillan as a wing and stop playing him as an undersized four, he has the foot speed and decent ball handling to fully transition into a small forward.

Santillian has been playing small forward since CYG returned to ROS, specially during import laden conference. CYG had difficulty in teams with bigger wings like Meralco and Gins, that's the reason why he developed bigger wings, Oftana and Semerad in NLEX, and now Santillian in ROS. But during Philippine Cup, after Ponferada was traded to TNT, and the absence of Luis Villegas, Santillian was forced to play Power forward again. But there were still times were Santillan plays the 3, Belga at 4, Datu at 5. With the arrival of Villegas and possibly Tiongson this conference, I expect Santillian to play more of a small forward.

But Converge has the moolah unlike stingy ROS.

To be fair to Converge, you dont pay up for a FilFor who hasn't shown anything at the higher levels.

[Sikatrix]

Snow basically accusing Jalalon of gamefixing.

Well Tiongson is an B League Asian Import level player . he should be good for 5 to 6 years.. Look at his performance at the Jones Cup, he even plays better than Fenner.

I think he was referring to Vales.

Plus Caelan has proven himself in this country. Its hard to bet on reputation alone especially if its not at least D1 level.

Also from Snow, Jared Brown is asking for a lot, which doesnt make sense. Dude was legit a 2nd round pick at best. Also leaking his KBL tryout to Homer but he'd be in the KBL if an offer came.

Lemetti signed to 3 yr deal by ros

TNT would be fools to over pay Brown, heck there was a time Espinosa was outplaying Jared Brown and was starting over him in Ateneo.
