NLEX eliminates SMB with the win. I expect some more farming to occur since Tiongson/Cahilig didnt work out.

Tiongson was actually their best player in one game. The locals actually played decent in their last game it’s just they couldn’t get much from their import. They need a defensive PG to alternate with Tiongson though as he is one of the worst defensive guards in the league.Originally posted by Sikatrix View Post
Junemar and Mo are still the best frontline duo in the league. Mo in some of his games still looks like a starting center level. Cahilig is decent enough. Not sure who you will get in his SF/PF position.Comment

But one of the slowest Frontline in the league.. having both Mo and JMF means teams will go running game to cancel the advantage of SMB.. Meralco already knew their weakness and until now they can't solve it, even teams like TNT, Ginebra and ROS found that way to erase the Junmar - Mo Frontline in the court.. they need ala Malonzo, Rosario or Hodge type of forward to partner Junmar and Mo... Or better trade Mo for that type of forward...Originally posted by Rds View PostComment

I have a question here... Is that 5 year sit out rule are only for PBA rookies like Dave who are not signed by any team or even veterans especially the likes of Ray Parks, Kiefer Ravena or Greg Slaughter who until now they are not signed by any pba team? Because if the 5 year sit out rule are applies to anyone, that means Ray Parks can sign now by any pba teams as UFA by 2026, Same goes to Kiefer and Parks while Wright by 2027...Comment

With SMB's unprecedented elimination in the Commissioner's Cup, expect it to make a massive harvest of quality players from its 2 farm teams - Perraperma & Northport.
So are Will Navarro & Josh Munzon headed to SMB? Maybe SMB will get rid of its ageing players like Chris Ross & Marcio Lassiter."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.

It seems Jamie Malonzo is slowly getting back to his pre-injury form. This will only be good development not just to Ginebra but to Gilas as well. I like to see Malonzo in Gilas uniform this 3rd window."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.

Mo actually is fast enough to be the center when JMF cant keep up.Originally posted by Giannis34GOD View PostComment

For the first time since the 2015 PBA commissioners cup, san miguel beermen are not playing in playoffs.Comment

So it just rookies who will have that 5 year sit out rule? Because Dave might use this sit out rule if Northport and his camp can't agree of trading his rights elsewhereOriginally posted by Silent Killer View PostComment

If the upcoming 50th season is where the PBA will make things right, this is the perfect time for SMC Corporation to sell their so-called farm team, NorthPort, to sustain parity. Parity is something fans want, and it is already happening now, so it just needs to be maintained. NorthPort is the top team right now, so the asking price for the team would be high. At the same time, the buying team wouldn't need to tank for more talent (similar to what Converge did) because NorthPort already has a lot of it, and the ROI would be quick. Imagine Puregold buying NorthPort as an independent team—it would generate a larger fanbase because the "farm team" identity would be gone, replaced by a franchise that actually wants to compete (hopefully). Even if they do sell NorthPort, they still have Terrafirma, anyway. It would be better for all the farm teams to be bought by competitive brands, but it might happen one at a time, step by step.

Another solid game for Zave Lucero.
Sayang talaga that he's not FIBA eligible. Imagine if for instance he is FIBA eligible, Gilas at the four spot would have been deep with Tamayo, Malonzo, Lucero & even Baltazar (though it's a bit unlikely he will get Gilas invite)."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.

Lucero is a natural 3. Tamayo played 4 and Diouf was the 5 when they were together in UP.sigpicComment

TNT takes the no.2 seed and twice to beat advantage over no.7 Eastern. Magnolia's quarterfinals hope still alive as they face NLEX on Sunday for the playoff for the no.8 seed.Comment

He will be eligible by his late 20s to early 30s, still will be serviceable in a 4-year FIBA cycle.Originally posted by JAMSKIE View PostComment
