47th PBA Season (Philippine Cup, Commissioner’s Cup & Governor’s Cup)

If you were Chot, who would you choose? Sandy already lost two games. To be fair Josh did do a decent job IMO. They just lack players, and the Erram ticking time bomb exploded. SMB just had more fresh players available in the 4th, TNT couldn't keep up. Erram, Khobunti and Ryan Reyes could have helped but they were not available. IMO the refs were already helping by calling touch fouls on Castro's defender. But they just lacked manpower and Mikee was already blanketed.

I would choose anyone on that list other than a guy who can't even have a good result in juniors tournament.

i defer to robert, the tnt fan here at IBN , compared to Meralco, TNT's coaching staff is effed

[Dunkin' Master]

in the list I'll choose Kai, Japeth, Balti and Edu maybe add Phillips in the list, Tamayo is more of SF for rather than a big. If JC will be our NP I wouldn't worry too much on scoring he is a NBA level scorer he can score against best teams in the world just surround him with deadly shooters. We need players who can defend quick players, recover fast and close out on shooters.

My 12 @ WC2023 (IMOO)

1. Kai Sotto
2. Junemar Fajardo
3. Japeth Aguilar
4. Troy Rosario
5. B.G. Rosser
6. Jordan Clarkson (NP)
7. Dwight Ramos
8. CJ Perez
9. Jamie Malonzo
10. Scottie Thompson
11. Terrence Romeo
12. Jayson Castro

...
* we have to build guards who can shoot from the outside and reliably play well internationally, experience wise.

* we need 6'5"-6'7" guys who is agile and can guard shooting forwards from other countries
* we need players ( Rosser, Thompson, Malonzo ), who are quick and plays defense rather than offense, because we had already players who can scores well.


_ btw, i'm a newbie here.

Game 1 to 6 - Let's follow the script
Game 7 - The real deal, it's me or you now

IMHO

So the .01 shot of JC is scripted in Game 1. How will you script that?

It was MVP vs. SMC, both organizations hate each other, both are hauling players just to beat the other. why would they agree to scripted Final series, If it was sister team match-up then malamang scripted...

[Dunkin' Master]

If you can tell the ball to go in, then it will be somewhat scripted.

TNT Tropanovela? Lol

While Williams may be friends with some San Miguel players, TNT insiders were puzzled seeing him in the same place and in the same celebration with the same team that had just beaten him and the Tropang Giga in a Game 7.
Williams has been known to be close pal of both Herndon and Chris Ross. He and Herndon were even seen together in a video practicing together when the latter was still with the Alaska Aces.

So far, no one from the TNT camp has come out to talk about the matter, but a team insider said the presence of Williams in the party really ‘looked bad.’

“I wouldn’t expect Chris Ross to be in our celebration had we won,” said the person who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

The same insider said even if Mikey is friends with some Beermen, the player should have avoided going to the party.

"That's in bad taste," the insider said.

hope this doesnt kill TNT's chemistry, Giga-drama/Tropanovela has some interesting overarching storylines ah!, Chot coaching saga, Mikey Williams, Mayor Castro, kelly vs fans, if the PBA is a pro wrestling promotion, you now have a mega heel stable in TNT which fans will pay to see get beaten.

This whole scenario is weird. Is there something wrong with Mikey's head?

Like Coach Nenad said: "there was certainly a little bit too much drama for my liking, every issue seems to be a very big issue"

Aldin Ayo and Converge trades for Aljun Melecio and Kris Porter. Phoenix gets Lojera and Adamos.

wow, i dont see why converge would do that. but melecio is an ayo boy so i guess.

Converge now has two pint-sized scoring point guards in Ilagan and Melecio. Both are of the same mold.

Snow & Gerry saying that TAB is part of CONVERGENCE coaching staff serving as a consultant. How true is this? Saw it from the latest spin.ph podcast.
