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

i'm not an insider..just an open minded person not blinded by - frankly, i don't know what you fanboys are blinded by anymore. yeah well, that was before MVP blindsided RSA with their business deals...this really is just a war between the two businesses and the national team is caught smack in the middle.

blinded by what?IMHO, the man had wasted millions of his wealth just for the sake of this f***ing basketball!
yes he labeled for marketing purposes, but he has the right to that and based on the history SMC started that trick decades ago.

what i'm saying here is that in basketball dictionary, RSA simply svcks.

But he/they did support the NT for a number of years too, correct?

True true. But that was before MVP supposedly stabbed SMC's back in the Meralco deal

[ricodgame]

so, he is also in it for the business? yeah, thought so...

come on. For some reason, yes.. But at least he spending it for the sake of our country. Not bashing RSA but isn't it all for the common good? This problem is way beyond marketing or whatever(well from what I have read in the previous posts here).

When SMC is the main financier/backer of the NT, did they remove SMC Products in the team? Of course not, it's a give and take process.

If it's all about marketing then, if they lend their players, and if they played well, then they can also benefit from that. Like for example, if Alaska did not trade LA, then they can put him in a lot of commercial/billboards showing his MVP trophy. While Put Mac and Sonny along with LA with, "wala pa ring tatalo sa Alaska" then them hoisting up the Jones Cup trophy.

Anyhow, back to your post Re: remove the Smart Gilas in the NT teams name, aren't other countries also putting the logos of the company who are sponsoring them?

[facaed2010]

Correct...

the problem of some posters here especially favored SMC/WSU that MVP is the culprit and they're the victim. Let say MVP having the profit of this since his initial printed in the jersey of Smart Gilas PILIPINAS NT. that his RIGHTS, who took the credit after bagging the Jones Cup? not only MVP but PBA and country in whole..

[kadafy]

geez, we're seeing the same arguments over and over and over...just goes to show how fans are really pissed off with RP basketball..

anyways, as some posters may have already mentioned, this ruckus that is Gilas 2.0 is not just about sponsorships/logos. it's not only about the business rivalry between involved camps. it's not only about bloated egos, hurt feelings, and wanting payback. there's just too many factors, too many characters, too many sub plots involved...hayyyy...

most of you do not really see the whole picture.

Its really very complicated.

this is bigger than basketball.

Its not really about business.

This is something personal.

Its between MVP and RSA.

ECJ does not want to be a part of it.

Even PNoy is having a hard time mediating in-between.

It's about Palabra de Honor.

[ricodgame]

Do you think RSA will not care even it's a negative PR for them?

if we wont see them in peace, we need to pray that their successors will be in better terms.

[manu_bol]

nah, i look at them as two philippine soldiers that hate each other.

in the battlefield, will they kill each other or the common enemy?

a bit of an analogy:

let's say in the heat of battle MVP is holding the trigger controller that can blow up all the enemy intruders, but then creeping from behind an enemy soldier is gonna shoot him point blank. here comes RSA with the chance to kill this enemy before he gets to MVP.

let's say RSA does nothing because he hates MVP so much and the enemy kills MVP and we lose the war.

how do we label RSA, then?

isn't that being unpatriotic?

it's not complicated. it's as simple as that... there is even no need to know or care why and how they started hating each other.

then so be it.. we will NEVER see unity in Pilipinas Basketball.. i am sad.. we will never have the opportunity to see our full potential.. i am sad..

you didn't read my next posts anymore..true that marketing is just an excuse...the reality is that our NT suffers because of a business war. if only, mvp did not allegedly blindside rsa then we might not see this.

Unpatriotic yes, But there's an electric reason why RSA won't kill the enemy, who was about to get to MVP, right?
