Hi-Tech Bangkok and the Saigon Heat should be the next teams they should pursue.

"Under the initial proposal, HK Eastern is to play six home games at the new Kai Tak Sports Park and six road games in Manila during the eliminations. If it qualifies for the playoffs, a home-and-away format may also be applied."

Is this a dry run for a home-and-away format in the PBA?

Bakits posted a video on how Balti can be effective now in the PBA and the things he needs to develop to be more effective. Let’s face it the PBA is not kind to 6’7 lanky guys who play from the perimeter. However, these are the type of guys we need for Fiba. 6’6 Arana type players are useless in Fiba. We dont develop 6’6 and up players who can somewhat defend the perimeter. Heck, 6’6 Lucero bulked up and played center for NP.

That’s not what we need. We need our eligible 6’6 to 6’8 guys be mobile enough to guard the perimeter in Fiba and not bulked up to play the post.

Balti might not be as smooth defending the perimeter as Norwood and even Navarro. But he is taller (6’6 3/4) and longer. He showed in Fiba that he is a good switch defender. His defense was one of the reasons we won 2x against Hyun Jun led Korea. Him improving his perimeter play and being effective in the PBA means less pressure to bulk up and slow down. Meaning being more ready for Fiba.

Is this good or bad?

it's bad, FIBA has no four-point line. Even NBA has no four-point line. The implementation of this line might encourage the players to do bad shots. Anything beyond 23 feet is a bad shot unless you are Curry or just doing a hail mary in the dying seconds of the game.

This is straight out of north korea’s playbook. Gonna be painful to watch players jack 4 point shots (bolick ,lee ehem)

should have kept this in the all star game

Is this, Bakits, a legit game analyst?

They are not addressing atleast one of the problems that the PBA has been facing in terms of gate attendance.

Even if the PBA makes a dunk three points, the problem will not be addressed because that four point shot or the three point dunk have nothing to do with the problem.

Weird, we’re implementing a 4 pt shot yet pba teams are notorious for poor shooting

Just copy the jones cup model, cheerleaders in skimpy outfits (plus beer)

it's stupid. the game is global, and everyone is waiting for the rules to merge, such as if 10 or 12 minute quarters, basket interference, zone defense, etc. PBA becomes a circus with a 4-pt shot.
