Originally posted by NOiNU View PostIt’s a fair trade IF Terrafirma were contending for championships and they need Cabagnot to get them over the hump. But we all know they’re not and on the contrary, they’re a perennial rebuilding team. It doesn’t make sense to get a player on the twilight of his career to form a core and vie for titles. Kung leadership lang naman habol nila to motivate the youngsters, sana si Coach Chot na lang kinuha nila.

This is standard practice for the SMC machinery—they float names to test the waters (fans’ reactions) and precondition our minds, then adjust a bit to make it appear they made some concessions.
Well, SMB added a 30-year old support player, and TerraFirma added an old but still good veteran star. I dunno about the trade for each side. I can't process it yet.

Well, SMB added a 30-year old support player, and TerraFirma added an old but still good veteran star. I dunno about the trade for each side. I can't process it yet."A king may move a man, a father may claim a son, but that man can also move himself, and only then does that man truly begin his own game. Remember that howsoever you are played or by whom, your soul is in your keeping alone, even though those who presume to play you be kings or men of power, when you stand before God, you cannot say, 'But I was told by others to do thus,' or that virtue was not convenient at the time. This will not suffice." - King Baldwin IV

Originally posted by robert0326Enciso - Cabagnot kinda fair for me because of the other reasons.. Enciso is younger but sometimes he's trigger happy w/ his shot selection.. medyo mababa IQ ni Enciso.. Even from his Alaska and TNT days of Enciso, he's inconsistent.. Cabagnot is older, But more reliable than Enciso in crucial situations...

Originally posted by Money View PostI think it was fair since SMB got younger and had another gunner in Enciso. Terrafirma, meanwhile, basically got rid of McCarthy (who wasn't even part of their rotation in Bacolor) for a seasoned VET in Cabagnot who will mentor the likes of Juami, Munzon etc. etc. given he will not be traded again.

Originally posted by Rds View PostCome on. TF is a farm team they will never contend fir a chsmpionship. But Alex is still a valuable trade chip for a contender. Over all pretty fair. Enciso is younger and has the slightly better stats but he has not yet shown he can be a contributor to a contender. Take note also Encisos minutes and usage rate is probably higher than Cabagnot. So he may not have the same stats with Cabagnots minutes.Never look too far ahead. You might stumble on a block right in front of you.

They badly need someone like cabagnot who can teach them how to win. Alex can mentor these guys and still ball out. If there are no more trades, terrafirma can contend for a 6th spot in the playoffsNever look too far ahead. You might stumble on a block right in front of you.

Originally posted by NOiNU View PostIsn’t SMB a contender? Essentially you are saying Enciso is not a trade chip to a contender while Cabagnot is. What just transpired proves that is not the case.
Cabagnot actually did decently in the semis. But I guess SMB wants more defense and health in the back up PG position. Especially when Romeo is getting injured often.
