it seems that the Converge management are literally gnashing their teeth nowadays after that quarterfinals series against SMB
with the imminent signing of Troy, the entrance of Balti and Letran bigman PauJavi
with the possibly of Dwight Howard which I think is a longshot for now but not possible
according to some murmuring, if the Superman doesn't pan out they will parade another NBA level guy instead.
having 2 billionaires and filthy rich politician as the bosses indeed "sky's the limit" for this franchise.
it's a "resbak" Commissioner Cup conference for them

Gilas had to beat Kazakhstan (which fortunately it did) & Korea must beat Lebanon for Gilas to take the last ticket to the 2019 World Cup."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.

Is Chot better than Yeng? This is debatable.... If not for RHJ, ROS can beat TNT, especially in All Pinoy conference...
Coach Yeng on the other hand has nothing but disappointment in his stints with the national team - 2009 FIBA Asia Championship & 2019 FIBA World Cup.
As far as World Cup stints are concerned, at least Chot had those moral victories in 2014 & those close loses to Dominican Republic, Italy & Angola in the 2023 World Cup.
Coach Yeng's lone World Cup stint in 2019 was a complete disaster as not only Gilas was winless but halos puro tambak yung mga talo natin as we were completely massacred by Serbia & Italy.
I think as a PBA coach, they are just about even in my opinion."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.

based on my own personal observation
it seems that ROS mindset was not totally on the game last night
i dunno but i've noticed that they've holding back on something
many sequence they are tentative and reserved
maybe TNT coaching staff's battle plan for this series are more prepared compared to other side
ROS are not capitalizing on their youth side
yes TNT are more experience to this kind of situation but the core of their lineup are glassy
CYG should take advantage of that
in a long series no doubt the Paintmasters has the edge
that is why TNT wants to finish the series ASAP
the lost of Caelan Tiongson may somehow affect the spiciness of ROS
he ain't a rookie no more he is already a vet
RHJ, Brownlee, Durham, King and Fuller makes this Governor Cup more interesting
if only Shabazz was healthy and was tap much earlier, I will also include him in the storyline
if it reach Game 7 which all of us are hoping, ROS will win
but if not TNT will wrap in up on Fri. or Sun

Guiao was a full-time PBA coach given 2 weeks prep time in 2009 and 2018. The disappointment was because of who he had in those teams. Half of his 2009 team would be ineligible with today's rules that started during Toroman's time... also, he had Jordan Clarkson (arriving late) and Stanley Pringle on the same backcourt in 2018 and blew a 4th quarter lead against Korea. He had more time to tinker with Chot's team for the 2019 World Cup given those suspensions (including Chot himself lol), but let's not get it twisted... how they played was never going to beat anybody while Iran was schooling the rest of Asia on how to compete against World Class teams.
Sorry, I forgot that coach Yeng also handled the ragtag RP team in the 2018 Asian Games with Jordan Clarkson in tow. I don't blame coach Yeng for that team's failure to make it to the semis despite having a Clarkson. That team was assembled at the last minute & Clarkson joined the team only during its 2nd game of the tournament. Kulang sa cohesion ang team na yun & it wasn't coach Yeng's fault."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.

RoS offense revolves around fuller, if he doesnt dominate, attract extra defenders on the post, RoS has a hard time executing their offense that and TNT's players are very tall and are easy to cover RoS players. One of their guards.. either Nocum, mamu or carracut (lemetti too but it seems that hes well scouted now) need to step up and become this team's main star, they cant just rely on Fuller to carry them. see Meralco with Durham before mvp tier Newsome

From Snow Badua’s FB page
Instead of dividing 12 teams between usual 2 groups, why can't the PBA come up with 2 divisions.
Non-performing teams be relegated to GROUP B, elite teams play in GROUP A.
First round of elims, Group A will play in Manila.
Group B, play in the province every Saturday. That's thrice the cost.
Top 2 teams of Group B will advance to Group A in the second round, lowest 2 will move down to Group B.
Tignan natin kung di magkumahog mga yan para makabalik sa Group A.
Time for the league to reward teams willing to win and 'punish' those that 'don't care'.
