LOL Meralco and Ginebra are so inseparable. Soulmates.

I go for magnolia. They are deeper than nlex.

Somebody here said it. Theyve actually been better the more Zave Lucero played. Mags will be a better matchup against NP. Lucero vs Tolentino would be an exciting matchup. NP is not deep at all. If Mags is able to stop their starters then they can get the two wins.

My thoughts too.. actually Magnolia could have won more games if not for choking in most of their games this season, they have a comfortable lead vs Converge late in the 3rd but still lose, they also lose to Ginebra in a Christmas Classico game despite leading by huge 24 also in 3rd, lose to ROS despite already have a 12 pt lead late 5 mins in 4th qtr, also lose to SMB despite having 6 pt lead in less than 3 mins in the 4th qtr... They still a good team, they don't have closer with the game matters, Paul Lee is too old to do that right now, Barroca is not clutch and Ratliffe is not a go to guy type of import...

A pretty decent number of crowd for the Magnolia-NLEX do or die game at Ynares.

[Rds]

Magnolia won this quite easily. Their NP matchup would be interesting. Kadeem vs Ratliffe, Lucero vs Tolentino, Barroca va Munzon, Dela Rosa vs Navarro. I think Mags depth will be enough to overcome a twice to best disadvantage.

[Joe Yabuki]

Zav loves playing with Baroccs with those passes, for his age Barroca is still probably the most complete/consistent PG in PBA

With Magnolia's win, Arvin Tolentino should bid his BPOC award goodbye especially if Magnolia will play like this in their quarterfinals matchup. You also need to factor in the Al Chua mafia moves. Last time Northport went up against an SMC team in a quarterfinals, Arvin Tolentino mysteriously got an injured knee and sit it out in that game. Even the pba commentators on that game were clueless on the injury of AT. Will not be surprise if this will happen again vs MAgnolia.

When was the last time a farm team won a series vs a mother team?

When was the last time a farm team won a series vs a mother team?

Globalport (Northport today) vs Ginebra 2015 AFC playoffs.. it was only 1 game and that was controversial due to 5 sec ball hug violation of Pringle that didn't called.. but no one knows that time Globalport will be a farm team of SMC

PBA will hold next 10 players list of 50 greatest of all time... My possible 10 players should be on the list are:

1. Nelson Asaytono - No question, who else!! He should be there

2. Danny Siegle - Multiple BPC, multiple champion, A guy who started tall wingman in the PBA, a walking mismatch in his era

3. Bong Hawkins - Multiple champion, A grandslam winner, deserve to be there..


4. Arnie Tuadles - Many time champion, former ROY and multiple mythical selection..

5. Abe King - Same as Tuadles, many time champion and mythical selection

6. Junmar Fajardo - The considered PBA GOAT... Who can question his 8x PBA MVP today.. he's a legend..

7. Peter June Simon - Like Bong Hawkins, He's a multiple champion and a grandslam winner.. Part of legendary big 3 of San Mig coffee grandslam run in 2014..

8. Scottie Thompson - Probably he's there since getting MVP is a criteria and outside Junmar, only Scottie got MVP in past 10 years..

9. Ranidel De Ocampo - Many time champion , A BPC winner, A Gilas legend, He started the stretch 4 mark in the PBA.. maybe some will disagree but I think he deserves it..

10. LA Tenorio - Another many time champion, A BPC winner, a Gilas legend and loved by most of his fans.. I have some sentiments with him and Racela but I feel Tenorio have more achievements than Racela...

I like your picks. I would just change your Private Messages pick to either Olsen RAcela or Jeffrey Cariaso. Manny Victorino is also a worthy pick and should be given enough consideration.

So what will be the excuse if Northport advances. Al Chua mafia moves didn't work because RSA ask him to

Terrafirma is open to sell their franchise to interested companies - per Snow Badua.

Terrafirma is open to sell their franchise to interested companies - per Snow Badua.

Then SGA should not loss time and must reach Terrafirma executives. Whilst they can also ask PBA some concessions such as the privilege to elevate their local players to pro as direct hires such as Abando, Ildefonso, Brickman and if possible Kouame…
