2007-2008 PBA Fiesta Conference

[RayV]

Today's game

TNT vs Welcoat @ 4:50 PM
I hope Jason Keep, import of WCT has been replaced already.

AIR21 vs Redbull @ 7:30
This is a very interesting match up.
Thomas vs Parada, whos ur bet?

Hehehe, my sig says it all.... heck, but I don't know, Parada is quite a presence down low... we'll see if Parada's well scouted by Air21 or if our big men, especially our import, are capable of stopping/neutralizing him inside...

[hawke12]

They did say that Thomas a Defensive specialist... So lets see what Parada can do against this player..

TNT thrases Welcoat 131-95

Really... Jason Keep has to go.

STEVEN THOMAS I think is a keeper. He was able to match Parada's output in almost all departments, though Parada I think still is the slightly better import.

The problem w/ Air21 though, is how to get the locals to complement their import's game. Red Bull was able to do it very well indeed, but not so w/ Air21.

Hay.... yes, RBB was the better team that game... Adam Parada was unstoppable inside (I sure wished EJ Feihl could've played like that, haha) Air21 simply lacked chemistry aside from KG getting tech'ed out, them heaving too many 3's and leaving RBB's shooters especially Hrabak... I'm still waiting for Gary D to get his old form back and where the heck is JC Intal??

I really think, Welcoat is "tanking", so that they would end up having the worst record at the end of this season and eventually would give them the number one overall selection for the 2008-2009 PBA Draft.

They are experimenting their players last night. Trying to find out who will they keep in next season's lineup. They lack a stable backcourt and a good small forward.

whats the accurate height of Adam Parada.

I also noticed, what's the deal with Coach Caloy and Joe DeVance? Are they currently on bad terms? Or is Joe just injured and limiting his minutes... Even the commentators don't know the reason why JDV only played 10 minutes, all in the 1st quarter...

Although Caloy has close ties with the team owners. I feel he is way too early to become a head coach in the PBA.

There are other logical candidates. Joel and Koy Banal. They are already proven coaches with championships in the NCAA, UAAP and the PBL. Joel already won a championship in the PBA when he was coach of TNT.

I was also wondering about that.. I think WCT should get another Coach.

both banal's are assitant coaches in other teams(PF and Alaska) so it'll be hard to get them.
JDV... hehe..

Is John Arigo injured? He hasnt played for Coke this conference?
Just asking...

Coke has a lot of perimeter players that could fill the role of Arigo (even if he's injured). Buenafe, Enrile, Macapagal and Duremdes. Plus they will be having back their import who currently recuperating from injury.

Oh, so he's injured,tnx.

[ankle breaker]

arigo is not injured. he's not yet fielded in together with duremdes because there's no need. they have several clutch players with younger legs that can contend plus the hulking presence of jason dixon and asi taulava. they are expecting calvin cage to be back after 2 weeks.
