I doubt the Aussie players would bring the same amount of internet traffic to the B.League. There would always be a spot for Pinoy ballers IMO.

Yes but Aussies are richer than us and should be easier to monetize.

[thatweirdguy]

so that means guys like Ramos, Thirdy, Kiefer, etc… will be only in Japan until 2025?

they’ll allow aus players to be considered asian imports within the next two years.

thats why the pinoys will look for an extension soon enough

Sir CoJ,

let's wait and see what kind of high they will be if that propose grand plan of the B. League to implement their very first Draft Day on 2026 wherein there will be no more Asian quota and AUS players alongside(?) NZL ballers will be included as well.

for now those Grandpas are comfortably implementing their outdated(good old) system...their safe space.

we can't argue, they are very much comfortable with it for now.

Sir Reams,

I totally agree.

but as I said on my other reply, we can't argue with the Grandpas, they were very much comfortable on their safe space.

for now.

The bad thing is its Tito Luigi who is whining on this..

Because its the only market outside Macau (no team), Japan (already gone host last year...EASL has high potential..we just dont want guys like Meralco representing as they make it as an excuse for their shortcomings

Sir Reams,

I totally agree.

Bush league move by the pba, should have rescheduled today's games in support of the easl. This grandpas think too high of themselves

Hope so

Hopefully, they send teams there and actually compete.

SMB needs help in interior defense, though. Despite having Ross, Marcio, and Trollano as perimeter defenders, a frontline of June Mar, Boatwright, Tautuaa, and Manuel is not gonna cut it on defense.

Ginebra need depth, especially at the big positions. They will need to rotate players if they join.

FIBA Asia has its own Champions League. EASL is a glorified pocket tournament accredited by FIBA. Better for EASL to invite strong teams to attract sponsors

Just like in Europe... EASL is like the Europe Cup version here... But still better since Asians will expose more international competition... This is what Asia lacks, that's why Asians are too far behind when World cup and Olympic competition comes!!! Africa is already improving after FIBA and NBA create Basketball African League since 2020, They exposed into more international competitions, Hence, Their performance was way better than Asians last year's FIBA WC...

Maybe CBA will join... I don't think they will give additional slots in B League, PBA, KBL and P+ League... Maybe 2 teams for CBA, PBA, B-LEAGUE, KBL and P League, while 1 team each for IBL Indonesia, VBL Vietnam, MBL Mongolia, Thai league, Malaysian league and might add Singapore Slingers or a team in HK... That's 16 already... If they put another teams in those major leagues, It's not a champions league already...

I think Cebu have already all those tools... The accommodation is by near the stadium, The venue itself is good in FIBA standards and Good nightlife if the want to go out such like beaches and malls... If FIBA allowed such as Baghdad, Damascus, Havana and Tel Aviv to host games despite civil wars are still exist there, why not Cebu? EASL games proved that Cebu is already capable.. I hope FIBA and SBP give Cebu a chance to host FIBA games... especially against Hong Kong, Manila fans are not interested in that game, since it will be lopsided...

I would like it to be promoted thru inter Asian sports spectacle,make it sound like its a big thing,a meeting of the best clubs in Asia,it wouldn't hurt to have crossover celebrities be seen,watching the games and its good for the host city,since big names will attract locals and tourists alike to some of the hotspots of the host city/state.
