PBA 49th Season

That will make them favorites. Will Al Chua make a move to disrupt this?

If its lopsided then they'll complain. Knowing SMC.

Sedrick barefield is the most realistic

Curious to see who will be the PG that TNT will get before next conference.

I think any 1 of these guys will be a KaTropa in the next coming days or weeks.

Mikey Williams
Sedrick Barefield
Kiefer Ravena
Jio Jalalon
Robert Bolick

Kiefer is doing good with Yokohama, don't think they will let him go if Yuki is not coming back.

Who do ya'll got for the PHL Cup?

I don’t see GSM doing it without Brownlee.

SMC? Junemar is getting old.

TNT? Maybe if they get Mikey back?

Maybe Converge or Northport?

Meralco should be the favorite being the defending champ. Bates needs to be healthy though.

TNT with BGR would be better but they still need another PG.

Honestly, on paper GSMs lineup is the strongest. All of their players were stars in other teams. The problem I think is they dont maximize it. Is Holt with all his pedigree this limited? He should get most of the touches and let Scottie play off him.

ROS would depend on Nocum and possibly Mamuyacs performance.

Again Converge would depend on how healthy Arana is and if Balti has a big improvement.

NP is a donut. They won’t be contenders.

SMB might still be a contender because of JMF. They must maximize Mo though. Also, they might need to get a defensive PG replacement for Ross.

Again, Mags will be better because of Lucero. But Jerom win’t be it because he list his defense after his injury.

Hot take, but i think converge will fizzle out next season with sga starting to pull out of that team.

Heck without a quick google search, i wouldnt remember that TNT won the title for the previous conference

facts lol, a team winning a championship in PBA is not as memorable as when Ginebra wins it.

BGSM will always be on that semis to finals picture for me, their lineup is too deep but just underutilized as hell.

I say ROS has a chance on a finals stint but TNT still would be the team to beat.

April 4 marks the start of the Philippine Cup. Shouldn't the PBA allow the champion team to savor their title first? The reason why winning a championship doesn't feel as significant or premium anymore is because, after winning the finals, a new conference begins just a week later, causing people to quickly move on from the recently won championship.

And they also beat Gilas on that last window of WC 2023 Qualifiers. No way guy said they are same level as KSA and Qatar lol.

Lool Just look at the H2H record of Jordan v Saudi. Who do you think has it in their favor?

Is this confirmed? This might be the reason why Erram trade rumors came up. Yes BGR would be a big boost for them. He played great in SEA games but I forgot his play in the PBA.

Barefield is their next target, the actual Castro replacement for them (although nambatac already stepped up) id say despite the headcase, they really dont want to let erram go to rivals.
