Still a close game between Magnolia and NP  one more final push for whoever team that will win this game, nice to see that NP is putting the pressure not to allow an easy game for Magnolia, though I don't see any good ball movement from both teams as they all just trying to shot the ball whoever is holding it, especially with NP not sure if they are calling plays, just take it strong to the basket without any rotation.

Not call for offensive set up though Magnolia is doing that same attack option but you can see from them that they still make it sure that there's passes before they take charge just not good rhytm and they keep missing, let see if they can find that timing and make a big run this last quarter.

It's hard to get more teams in the PBA. But if they're up really for competition, they should have done that long time ago. They've got fewer teams and good teams have already left the league because they're tired of the politics and the trade farming. SMC and MVP are getting good trades. They're just picking the best players from those farm teams, they hate to admit it but Danny I have spoken about it.

I also think that way when seeing them giving a hard time for Mags to dominate but that inexperienced in the final quarter, they unable to push as Mags find it's way to win with a double digit leads, congrats to everyone who manage to bet with that handicap like kabayan bisdak good pick again.


And after he spoke about it he got penalize that's how funny this league was, but there's nothing that can be done here just like what you said if PBA is interested with new teams they already done that long time ago, but they are all satisfied with the benefits that they are getting from SMC and MVP, the managements are not been shaken to whatever is happening inside the league they are well-feed by boss Ramon and Boss MVP.. hehehe..

Look at his kid, can't accept the 150k salary while the other rookies are receiving maximum salary. We can see the huge gap there when his kid was able to play overseas league with obviously a better pay. Well, the league is no doubt circulating with these two giant companies and when RSA said that people will get mad at them if they'll stop their operations there, he's just being for real. 1 billion pesos per year is really such an amount to maintain these all of teams coming from SMC alone.

Unfortunately, SMB only won by 1 point, so it ruined even the -2.5 spread. JMF made the game-winner with 3 seconds left on the clock, but if he hadn't, that rookie Lanete from ROS would have been the best player. The kid was clutch, sinking all 4 of his free throws during ROS's last shot attempt. It was an exciting game; I thought SMB would cover the spread easily, but when JMF sat down, things shifted, and ROS regained their confidence.

I was hoping Lanete would miss at least one shot so the game would go to overtime, but he’s clutch. He doesn’t even seem to feel the pressure, especially as a rookie. I think he’ll become a superstar for the team, as Coach Yeng has a lot of confidence in him. Way to go for ROS! I’m sure they’ll be competitive this season, and with their current lineup, I think they have a shot at winning a championship.

Just imagine if they win—they’re still undefeated right now and have already beaten both SMB and Ginebra.

I hoping too that the game would go to overtime as SMB will have a chance to cover the spread but it didn't happen.

Yeah, i agree that Felix Lemetti has a bright future ahead of him because of what he has shown in that game, knocking those 3's then sank those 4 free throws that give them the lead, took a lot of guts and confidence to do that things. My fearless forecast is that ROS will be in the quarterfinals and might advance to the semis with their current roster.

I read some comments on Facebook saying that Lemetti is really an extraordinary player, as he was an NCAA MVP in the country where he’s playing. That’s why it’s not surprising that he’s performing like a pro—he’s got the skills and training. This rookie is going to help make ROS a championship contender again. Even Coach Yeng was happy despite the loss, so you can tell he’s satisfied with the current roster and believes they will be a championship contender.

It won't change anything, the situation inside this league is been dominated by boss Ramon and Manny V., those farm teams are extensions of their rights aside from their own franchise they also have controlled behind those additional farm teams, if only PBA management can sell those franchise to new competitive billionaires chances that it brings new competition and additional interest to new  sets of fans, but unfortunately,  there's no such plans or actions the management is well-feeded by both SMC and MVP.
