How old is this guy now? It's been a decade since I saw him play for EAC. Is he a lot better now?

27?

Enjoyed the discussion regarding NLEX being a darkhorse contender.

I believe that NLEX's success is totally dependent on Shaw's performance. Sure, Miranda, Soyud, and Quiñahan are all decent. But they cannot handle the bigs of Ginebra (Cstand, Japeth, Caperal) and SMB (June Mar, Mo, Arwind). If he can be a decent defensive, rim-running big like Reavis, they might have a chance to take down some giants. Even if Kiefer takes the leap, or if Mikey Williams posts Pringle-like numbers, NLEX will go nowhere if Shaw turns out to be a dud. Lucky for them, Yeng is the type of coach that squeezes every last drop of talent from his players.

I also feel like the Alas Ravena combo won't work since both are at their best when they have the ball in their hands. Things would be even more superfluous if they choose Mikey Williams who I believe is the best available talent at pick 3. If I were NLEX, I'd trade him to Meralco, ROS, Alaska, or BW for a shooter or pick/s. I'd slide Semerad to the 2. He can backup Jericho Cruz at the 2. Ravena and Sumang at the 1.

Maybe ROS/Alaska would trade their first round pick for Alas. I would then select Santillan/Pasaol/Adamos. Or maybe a Mike DiGregorio and second round pick?

TNT signs free agent Heruela,good pick-up, upgrade over Enciso I guess

montalbo and vosotros are fringe players, any moment they could be released or traded to make room for wings/bigs

[dubidub]

Montalbo, I think, has a role to play in TNT. A defensive minded guard.

Honestly, I dunno how Vosotros is in the league. He was good at DLSU, but right now, there are so many better and taller guards than him.

miranda, soyud, quinahan and shaw, that's 24 hard fouls or 8 flagrant fouls. more than enough to shake BGSM's frontcourt

Omg 8 flagrant fouls. Maybe NLEX should trade Alas for Belga so that would be 10 flagrant fouls. Haha!

Heard Nabong is available haha

[JAMSKIE]

So what blockbuster trade/s is/are we going to expect in the coming days?

"Northport trades Greg Slaughter for Magnolia's Raffi Reaves & Kyle Pascual"?

or maybe "Northport trades Slaughter for SMB's Arwind Santos & Paul Zamar"?

This current trading season reminds me of the "arms race" NBA had a fews ago. The only problem with PBA's version is that most transactions are lop-sided and detrimental to the small market teams.

Well one side is leading the race by a mile. MVP teams got Trollano, out of shape Shaw, damage goods Belo, picks. They dont really compare to Abueva, CS, CJ etc. Not to mention they lost Parks and possibly Kiefer.

It appears that Yeng Guiao is disappointed of the NLEX-BWE-TNT trade. Yeng was very vocal of keeping their 3rd and 4th pick, as part of their long term preparation for the future of NLEX. But Chot Reyes wants to get Mickey Williams, trading TNT's bench players for the precious pick of NLEX, found it funny because it is almost the same pick they got from the Poy Eram trade last year. NLEX looked like a farm team of TNT, feel very bad for Yeng Guiao, he is a champion coach, one of the best in the PBA, doesn't deserve to be treated like that.

[mathematicianrcg]

There are rumors Coach Yeng will go to Magnolia if Kirfer - Troy Trade happened.

Kawalan ng MVP group if Coach Yeng will go to SMC.

Only good coach in MVP camp will be Norman Black.

[Itachi Uchiha]

Manila clasico will be more interesting if Yeng Guiao will coached Magnolia, but I think Yeng fits more in Ginebra, it would bring back the Ginebra aura of the 90's.

[mathematicianrcg]

Di na daw matutuloy Kiefer trade.. Kiefer rumored to play in Japan, If PBA allows...

Yeah. I know.

Coach Yeng Confirmed kiefer was offered.

And here comes Pba saying " WALA KAYO SA PWESTO NYO KUNG WALANG PBA". LOL.
