Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League

[ZIMATAR]

Im thinking about the participating teams, certainly if there's Manila, they shouldn't use Metrostars as a monicker, the old MBA has rights.

How about Metromoons or Metrosuns?

And how is Manny Pacquiao able to make a league of his own when he is still "playing" in a legit pro league?

He can create a modifed inter barangay league lol

According to PBA legend and league commissioner Kenneth Duremdes, they hope to be able to get up to ten to twelve teams by the time the regular season starts in January of 2018.

The MPBL regular season can be seen on S+A channel 23.

it seems that mpbl learned a lesson from mba by not having vismin teams for the meantime. the teams that will play for the league have geographic proximity with one another. 6 ncr teams plus bataan, batangas, bulacan and laguna. atleast logistic problems are not that serious. isang bus lang pagitan niyan.

another thing they should not follow with MBA: compete with the PBA regarding player salaries

exactly! that's what i would like to say. that's the biggest mistake the mba did. when you are at your infancy, huwag ka munang magpaluwal nang magpaluwal ng pera hanggat wala ka pang kinikita. don't rush things. mba did rush things to boost their popularity that led to their demise.

well, they can actually expand into visayas and mindanao but they need to schedule those matches properly and make sure that the teams from vismin come from richer places like negros, cebu, iloilo, davao, cdo, zamboanga, gensan, and surigao.

note: pba teams are owned by big companies. even a team like ros, alaska, or blackwater are still big companies that can fund a formidable team in the level of d-league or abl.
