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

Northport is a terminal business. Starhorse is a shipping/transport line. I don't see a conflict.

Article didnt due enough due diligence, originally I thought it will be in conflict with Dennis Uy/Uddena, but he lost most of his assets including 2go after Duterte’s term

here the quote from the article:

Similar to the Alaska-Converge transaction — which required Converge to secure approval from TNT’s parent company, PLDT-Smart — Starhorse will also need to go through a similar process, as it operates in the same industry as Northport’s parent company, Manila North Harbour Port.

Charles Tiu resigns from his deputy coach position & converge

so is there a SGA-Pineda rift?

It seems so. Atienza is not at Tiu’s level. And I have lesser trust on Pineda. This coupled with the trade of Lao playmate Andrade does seem that there’s something happening there. But in fairness, that Andrade Suerte trade was a good move for converge. Andrade is not the defender he was prior to injury. For a so called defender I saw him getting blown by too easily. For a tanking pick he was good. But Suerte, even though older has shown more offense in the PBA and is taller. A decent backup at SG position who can be more than a spotup shooter.

Wonder if Lao will finally pull the trigger on terrafirma or NP, with soured relations in the Dubai the temptation to get a PBA team is higher than ever

[CoJ]

Hope the sale of terrafirma will push thru, sale is a done deal, but would still need approval from the board

Charles is a big loss. I just hope Delta is self-aware enough to get good quality coaching. This is not the MPBL.

Delta will take over as coach of Converge after the elections, boy he's in for a rude awakening

I think Star Horse will get the PBA approval.

At first glance, it seems that Northport and Star Horse are in the same line of business. However, if you look closely, Star Horse is a shipping line whereas Northport runs port terminals.

Therefore, they are not really in the same line of business but, rather, related or allied at best.

plus Dennis Uy (of Phx) already sold his shares of 2Go which is a rival shipping company

As per onesports.ph

Man at this point they should just try buying the Blackwater.

So there will be no farm team already, unless Northport does its usual bullshit of tradings its competitive players
