He's someone TNT would highly need though.

a lot of teams need a big man. i dont think TNT has something that they can trade with almazan.

[digitalsuperman]

Almazan still a hot commodity man , their are atleast a couple of pba teams that will get him.

with that kind of attitude then owners they'd better think twice. maybe almazan will be traded to an SMC team and for sure he will be very happy. maybe to ginebra again.

no trading of number 1 pick starting next year

TRADING the much-coveted number one pick will now be prohibited.

That is, until next year.

PBA commissioner Willie Marcial said the league's board of governors have unanimously agreed on locking up the top selection to the past season's worst team in the annual rookie draft starting 2019.

Saw him in a mall with his family. May nagpapicture sa kanya but he didn't look happy.

hINDI ako sure. pero hindi ba may news regarding his wife who stole all his earnings kaya down siya? and sumama sa isang band member daw?

Makes you wonder why this is applicable on 2019 and not in this coming draft...

Sinister move coming?

You know what , i've thinking about this.. I think they're can be a decent market for a non traditional high school. who instead of focusing on "winning" focused mainly on player development. I really believe there are enough parents out there (of course provided the training development coaching is of good quality) who would be interested in sending their son to a school with this emphasis. it just hasn't been done before , but if you think out of the box - think innovatively . Puede actually , there is a market in my opinion. You ask what's in it for the school? Well... the hope is if you provide good quality education and training. you wil attract talent. A non tradtional school ( example only Readly or Faith - if it had a basketball academy .. would attract talent it otherwise would't have if it focused on this - development... (these schools don't really have a tradition of winning anyway... so it's not like the alumni will complain...

For one, the rules of the game have changed drastically to make such a feat even harder to achieve, said Guiao, pointing to the old illegal defense that discourages the zone defense during PBA games.

“The way the game is played now? And also the rules?” he said. “Kasi noon meron pang illegal defense. So yung mga talented na one-on-one players, talagang may advantage kasi may illegal defense as everybody had to step out of the lane.

Also, the PBA game has improved specially defensively. During the late 80's & the early 90's, PBA imports averaging 40+ points/game was just normal & very common. An import averaging only 25+ or 30+ pts./game would usually be considered a scrub or an under performer during that time. Specially the small imports of the 3rd conference becoz the small imports were really the ones who scored well -Tony Harris, Kenny Travis, the late Bobby Parks, Sr., Mitchell Wiggins, etc. I think if Bobby Parks & Kenny Travis would be playing in the PBA today they would only average around 30 points/game or perhaps even less.

The thing is that PBA players have become bigger, stronger & more athletic in the last 25 years or so. I think some local players like Gabe Norwood, Sean Anthony, Calvin Abueva, CS, etc. would be able to limit or neutralize high scoring imports.

Also, the talent pool in the PBA has become deeper that teams no longer rely so much to their imports the way they used to some 25 to 30 years ago. So as we can see yung average points/game ng mga imports ngayon are no longer as high as they were some decades ago.

Subrang napakasarap ng litson if you have not eaten it for a year. Pero kung kahapon ka lang kumain ng litson, mababawasan ang sarap sa pagkain mo ngayon.

Law of Marginal Utility in Econ. Actually, I think this is also one of the reasons why PBA is losing fans (aside from greedy corporate giants in the league). Nauumay na talaga yung tao because of it long season.

while the NBA just started its 2018-2019 season, with the ABL, CBA and NBL soon to follow, the PBA is not yet done with its 2017-2018 season....wth

well, I will not disagree with this but more than this, before back in the 80's and 90's there wasn't much leagues to play for pay.. thus, some if not most of the good imports can play in the PBA with decent pay.. China didn't have the CBA back then which pays millions and millions of dollars.. even some EURO leagues cannot pay as much as PBA.. unlike today.. though comparatively, the PBA can still be considered as competitive in terms of salary considering tournaments are just 2-3 months long for imports.. but in general, a lot of leagues around the world now can pay much more even 10 times bigger than what the PBA can..

I would be pissed if terrence watson is paid more than a stanley pringle lol
