@_alba__ They put a 6’0 guard on Calvin Oftana and the little guy still came out on top.

Elite.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

I never doubted him.

I said it long before, Gian Mamuyac will be a superstar.

Now the question is, how long will he stay with Rain or Shine?

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

I’ve never understood this POV.

Pull up Lebron’s stats in those championship runs. It’s fair to say that he put his team in a position to have those game winning shots.

This is like saying “MJ would have six less rings without Scottie, Phil Jackson or Kerr’s game winner”

[PBA insider @PBAinsider]

No hate at all but Lebron would have two less rings if not for Kyrie and Ray Allen’s clutch shots — inarguably two of the biggest shots in NBA history. I mean, everyone acknowledges it except for Bronsexuals.

@PBAinsider Marcio Lassiter is the right answer

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

Never Forget!!!

And, with Rey Nambatac’s trade to Blackwater for only picks, I fully expect Mamu to play a much larger role for RoS.

[Ryan Alba @_alba__]

Gian Mamuyac did it. Never forget.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@tntfanacct @PBAinsider From that perspective, I agree.

Still, I can’t help but wonder how much more they could have gotten for Rey Nambatac. A late first rounder for Nambatac is straight up robbery.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@tntfanacct @PBAinsider Yes. With that said, is that a good trade for RoS? Probably not.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@tntfanacct @PBAinsider They traded TNT’s pick. BW keeps their own.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@arnoldterre @spinph @johnmarkdg_ Wasted talent? He’s only 22 years old.

Most players his age are still playing in the UAAP/NCAA.

In japan, he not only has better pay, but also better training staff & facilities.

His playing time will come.

So don’t be a fool, the PBA is the floor for Carl Tamayo.

What was RHJ doing?

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@calvingonba People struggle so hard to give credit where credit is due 🤣

Crying over another person’s greatness and success is wild!!!

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@TheDunkCentral JB must be a fool if he actually believes in this. The context for the “F Bill Russel” is because they’re against Boston 🤣

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@lfcf14 Bro is already hating on a 19 yr old rookie 🤣

Ya’ll know you can support Chet without the Wemby hate right?

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

Rain or Shine is on the verge of breaking the 18 win streak of Magnolia.

RoS started 0-6 this conference. What an upset this would be.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

Adrian Nocum needs to learn to pass out of his drives.

The rookie has had great moments but he is forcing too much.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

If i’m trying to win under a system, i’m taking SJ Belangel.

If i’m looking for star point guard that will provide entertaining basketball and buckets, i’m taking RJ Abarrientos.

One works best with a system, and the other without.

[PBA insider @PBAinsider]

If both were available in the PBA draft, who would you pick first?

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@RaptorsGen So what do you mean? should they stop calling fouls after a certain point even if he’s actually getting fouled?

It is insane for a player to have 32 fts, and thats because Giannis is an insane player.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

@PBAinsider It says a lot that Aldin Ayo, Ricci Rivero’s former coach, did not pick him in the draft.

Read between the lines.

[Basketball thoughts @TalkPBA]

Coach Goldwin Moteverde chose to stick with his NU boys in the end.

Proven vets, most notably CJ Cansino and known clutch hero JD Cagulangan was not subbed in until it was too late.

Questionable from Coach Gold but I can’t fault him for choosing to trust his longtime kids.
