sobra odds kanina sa Ginebra......obviously....may nangyaring milagro .....

dont worry... it aint happening... the size and weight difference may be too much for pacquiao... but de la hoya is not the same fighter 2 or 3 years ago... he had a very difficult time with forbes in his last fight and forbes is almost the same height and weight as pacman...

 

whilst pacman is much faster and can still hurt a bigger opponent in dela hoya... even if dela hoya is more powerful than pacman, its not going to hurt pacquioa if golden boy cant catch pacquiao... so how can pacman be brutalized if he aint goin to get hit?

 

at the end of the fight... dela hoya may still win this but i dont see him brutalizing or even dominating pacman because of the way pacquiao is moving now...

 

and im imagining already how proud 90 filipinos would feel after pacman gives a future hall of famer, who is way bigger and heavier, one of his hardest fight ever...

if the match between floyd and odlh will be the basis.....delikado si pacman natin !!!

I have inside sources....kay MC47 bibigay BPOC, and MVP this year....as they are building him to be the next Jawo of the league....

FRIdAY at the YnARES.....

BEST IMPORT : TOOTHPICk

BEST PLAYER OF THE CONFERENCE : MC47

MVP : MC 47

yeahh right... so what is so embarassing about fighting a bigger guy? when does it become so shameful to go against a future hall of famer? does it become embarassing and shameful because he is going to be paid $20m for it? so how does a record purse for a filipino become a hindrance to greatness and legacy?

 

i hope we stop with this height of hypocrisy and just support the guy who has been one of the few bright spots to our being a filipino...

 

whoever is saying that this is gonna be a freakshow ought to be the one who should be embarrased or ashamed for losing faith in what the filipino can do... how dare this pseudo patriots call themselves honorable filipino when all they can think of is to put a typical small but resilient filipino down... di pa nga nagsisimula laban eh ilan na sa inyo nagpatulog kay pacquiao...

 

there is no shame in losing to a good fighter but i would even go one step further and say that yes pacman can beat golden boy even if he is much bigger... yes, the filipino can be world beater and can stop bigger opponents...

 

the chinese basketball team is way bigger and superior than our pba laden national team but i never saw anyone say that their game against china is gonna be a freak show... and yet we put down pacman for fighting a bigger foe simply because he stand to earn $20M? well, ive got news for you guys... pacman stands a better chance of beating dela hoya compared to our national basketall team beating china...

 

didnt we learn our history well enough? didnt lapu lapu slay the taller, bigger and well equipped magellan some 500 years ago? and i dont think anyone would say it was a shameful freak show... didnt a short and very young general with a handful of men held a few hundreds of american at bay in tirad pass? i dont think it was an embarrasment even after he died...

 

so it is never going to be a freakshow as most posters are saying... im sure pacman will put up a courageous fight and will go down fighting... he even could win this one...

 

remember that dela hoya had a very difficult time against a much shorter steve forbes (who is almost the same height as pacman, he also fought in the same weight as pacman)... and to think that forbes did not have pacman's dizzying combination of speed and power... besides, pacman is peaking and golden boy is in his twillight of his career...

 

so i'd say it again, those who is calling this fight a freakshow should be the one who ought to be ashamed of themselves not pacman whose only fault right now is his being a recipient of $20M come fight time...

Just imagine how 90 million filipionos would feel, if pacman would be BRUTALIZE in this fight ? for the reason that this is a total mismatch !!!

negative

1. bumagal ang pace ng ginebra nung na-injure si artadi ( wout tubid and artadi....humina sobra ang team natin )

2. hirap ang forwards ng ginebra sa frontline ng air21..ranidel ate ginebra forwards' defense ( dats why if menk steps up , game is over )

3. laking bagay ng mga missed free throws ng bgk ( even jj and mark missed a lot )

4. gary david can score at any given chance pag na open

positive

1. caguioa vs david match up..mark outplayed gary david ( if arwind will be put to mark , JJ, JUnthy must be the scorer )

2. 1-2 punch of jayjay and mark is still as potent as ever..so is junthy's game poise ( i agree )

3. pacana(offense) and menk(defense) is stepping up ( Menk is very active tonight...i hope he could sustain and improve next game )

4. hirap sa penetration ang air21..thanks to alexander! ( he should be the best player of the game , he gave the W today )

Notes : With the way air 21 players choke....i won't be surprise if this will be a sweep. I thought Thomas will dominate Toothpick as what he does on their first meetings....pero the way his offense droped, hirap na hirap siya.....arboleda was totally outplayed by JJ kahit offnight pa si JJ....this will be a short series...unless air21 will do some major adjustment that would turn the series around.

ill take the money also,langya dagdagan nga lang nang 3%ang sweldo ko tuwang tuwa na ako,lahat naman tayo nagpapakahirap sa trabaho natin yun nga lang ang trabaho ni manny mas malaki ang sweldo,it might be a freakshow but hell yah...eh ano ngayon kung money pacman man sya mayaman na manny naman

The main problem with our country is this kind of thinking, that is why we deserve all the politicians we have right now. The words pride and honor, seemed a long forgotten word in our dictionary.

Manny has brought so much honor and respect to us Filipinos, it won't be too fast ( look at Z gorres, Banal , bautista , hawaian punch ... soon there names would be forgotten like espinosa.......) , before we have another manny pacman again in our country. The wait for another elorde after elorde was like 40 years......I hope he reconsider his greatness and legacy for the sake of money .....

Kung ikaw ang bibigyan ng pagkakataon ng magkaroon ng $20M or P900M for 36 minutes of work (12 rounds) hindi mo ba susunggaban?

hindi naman ikahihirap ni pacman kung di niya kalabanin si ODLH...but because of money...he might even be knockout ......which would tarnish his name and reputation..kahit na mas malaki pa siya ....parang nagpa gulpi siya tapos nagpa bayad lang....remember he is our national pride....

Kung tutuusin Match up wise, tagilid ang BGK sa AI21... Malalaki ang AIR21 eh, Santos and Canaleta matatangkad na mabibilis rin... Wag pakasisiguro, sana wag matapos mamaya ang winning streak ng BGK hehehe

 

THOMAS, SE, SANTOS, CANALETA, ARBOLEDA...

 

vs

 

ALEXANDER, REAVIS, VALENZUELA, CAGUIOA, HELTERBRAND...

 

tagilid match-up natin kay santos at canaleta...

santos and canaleta are bigtime chokers...they are not my worry....i am more worried with thomas and arboleda

PACMAN WILL BE DEVASTATED.....ALL FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY ......MONEY PACMAN KA TALAGA !!!!

hehehe they will win a game..

 

 

same here, jong and the coaching staff are doing a great situational ingame adjustments.. ang di ko lang lubos maiisip , parang tiyempo bad timing mga time outs. just like yung ot win nila over red bull...and many occasions, madlas kesa good outcome. plays goes wrong coming from a time out...

I have to agree that timeout ( regulation before OT WIn vs red bull) was a bad one, coaches made mistakes....so are players....its normal ....overall Jong's coaching and Samboy's management is above par. :thumbsupsmiley: that is why they are going to be Champions .....

ODLH vs MARGO - CLASH OF THE TITANS

ODLH vs PACMAN - CLASH FOR THE CASH

MARGO vs PACMAN - CLASH OF NO CLASS

Barrios...is just making some statements na may laban ang Air 21 sa Gins....just spicing up the series..the truth is NO WAY AIR 21 would win in this series ..... NO WAY>>>>>>>>>>>who wants to bet ????

can anyone definitely say that goods are still cheaper in hk? i'm particularly interested in watches.

watches......absolutely cheaper sa HK

Some may not agree with me but one thing I noticed is Jong (or at least the BGK coaching staff) is very good in in-game adjustments. In their 2 game sweep of SLR, their main defensive alignment is the 2-3 zone. The moment Mendoza checked in - they automatically switched to man-to-man. In their sweep against Red Bull, defense was a very big factor. Their transition defense held up, their defense against the tall three pointers of Red Bull was at least above average. I think all of these won't be possible without a good coaching staff. And I don't see how the rotating of the guards be a problem, on the contrary, the 3-guard offensive formation is very potent and was in fact effective against Red Bull.

coaching is not bad.... i should agree

pagdating sa odds...santos is very notorious for ( benta ng laro ) ....and this guy is a choker......my concern is thomas and arboleda....we need JJ to have a consistent game thruout the series...

NO WAY AIR 21 could win this SERIES.........NOT WITH THE SHALLOW EXPERIENCE>>>>> mag chochoke sila SANToS , DAVID .

Players we have to WATCH

THOMAS / ARBOLEDA....sila papatay sa team natin .....

They will win some games...but not the series.....

The promo of globe is very great...directly challenging the Smart's Promo ....the catch here....i register time to 1111, and nag text back naman...to my delight i started using the promo ....so browse browse browse..since it is cheap .....to my shock after a few weeks..i got my bill , and i was charge 6500 pesos for browsing using GRPS / HSDPA per databye charging....Globe insisted that i did not register....i SUGGEST TO all globe clients to verify if they are registered yet....GAgo talaga globe bakit di na lang gayahin ang smart ...na activated na ang promo ...siya may pa per KB browsing pa then may 5 pesos per 15 mins...this is a trap ..para lalo magka pera.....

i hope everyone .....in the net community be AWARE of this TRAP setup by Ayala group.....

i dont agree that uichico has a big advantage vs perasol. uichico has the luxury of coaching good teams with good players. thats the only reason why he has a winning record. but if you are going to analyze his career, he is a damn bad coach. he doesnt know how to use/utilize players and nerbyoso. for me, its a good thing that tubid was injured, or else, uichico is going to have a hard time in rotating the guards.

 

its going to be close series. advantage is to gins because of its players. but take note, coaches will play a crucial role in the series which air21 has the advantage.

good point...but perasol with all its players....as in all....have not played a single finals game yet ....this would be a big factor....

Breakdown

GUARDS

Wynne Arboleda

19 - Guard

Gary David

20 - Guard

Marvin Cruz

12 - Guard

Ernesto Billones

29 - Guard

VS. Gin Kings , Jayjay, MC47, Pacana , Artadi, Escalona

Gin Kings has the most powerful guard position in the league today. Expect Arboleda to muscle out JJ, if they could contain JJ, it would spell big trouble for us. Air 21 's game is run and gun just like the gins, but the gins is the best transition defender too in the league. Expect a lot of running from both teams.

ADVANTAGE : Gins

Small Forward NUMBER 3 position

J.C. Intal

07 - Forward

Niño Cañaleta

09 - Forward

Gabby Espinas

10 - Forward

VS. Salvacion, Valenzuela, Wilson.

the gin kings could contain the best small forwards of air 21, due to the fact of experience of Sunday and Junthy. Canaleta is just a showtime player , come crunch time, he won't be a factor and would CHOKE.

Advantage : Gin Kings

Centers

Ervin Sotto

13 - Center/Forward

Homer Se

16 - Center/Forward

Doug Kramer

18 - Center

VS. MAMARIL , Reavis

Reavis long hands, and his great improvement in the last series, would give air 21 a very big headache.

Advantage : Gin Kings

Power Forward

Arwind Santos

29 - Forward

Ranidel de Ocampo

33 - Forward

VS. MENK, CRISANO

If Menk improves in this series, Crisano plays with his head. This is series is OVER it would be a sweep. But that would be a big what if in Menk's game and Crisnao as he will be task to guard steven thomas at the early going on the game.

Advantage : Air 21

IMPORTS

Steven Thomas

55 - Forward

VS. TOOTHPICk

Steven Thomas would be the biggest headache of our team, if this guy will not be check early, specially if toothpick got into early foul trouble, this will spell disaster for our team, Ginebra is a team that is good with transition defense , but is very weak when defending the post. Thomas is an excellent post player with very good permiter game, this would give us a lot of trouble, he might torch us 30 plus pionts a game in this series, if Jong won't make him earn his points.

Advantage : Air 21

Coach : JOng has the greater advantage overall bo perasol which is a rookie in terms of playoff and finals. Experience would play a big role on crunch time.

OVERALL : the longer the series the better for Ginebra, Gin would win this series, because of poise and experience as the Air 21 with young guns in Santos and canaleta, those players will still choke under pressure, Arboleda and Thomas...this two players i am very wary about. I hope the coaching staff of ginebra will find a solution to stop thomas and arboleda.

a very very interesting match.

Gins in 6 or 7.....

This is a freakshow...if ever ....

reavis has been making a big difference too, with rebounding and defense. that's what jumpstarts the fastbreak. looking forward to the finals..

If menk steps up next series.....it might be another sweep !!!!

pagpasensyahan nyo na si JJ. offnight lang talaga... heheheh. medyo pinilit nya...

That's his old sicknesss....bumalik nanaman...kaya nga helter skelter tawag sa kanya noon...bwakaw na magulo maglaro .....he should play more smart....

sabihin mo sa kanya....hwag masyadong dribble ng dribble.....look at how good point guards in the NBA do ..like Kid, stockton.....wala masyadong fancy dribble...but they make their teamates a lot better.....sa local naman sila Johnny A. , Hector Calma...these guys are very calm, and very much in contorl ...that is a very important criteria for a very good point guard....my 2 cents

* JJ was really pointed out during his stint in the last fiba tournament..for his over dribble.....in radio and print...he got a lot of criticism

any notebook that uses vista SUCKS BIG TIME ...walang kwenta mga core core na iyan basta vista ...vwisit ang bagal

Nakakabwiset ung laban ni Banal kagabi. Inabangan ko pa naman un, tapos ganun ganun na lang... :thumbsdownsmiley:

Pacman is the best thing that happen to philippine boxing....it would take some time before we have anther pacman, bulok ang boxing programs natin compare to mexico and cuba ....the sport needs a lot of funding and ...we really have to look everywhere for talent, madaming pacman na di pa pinapanganak and pinanganak na ....our sports authorities must make their act quickly....olympic nga isa lang mapapadala natin ... bulok talaga !!!!! ......
