Barangay Ginebra Kings

Tim is a very brilliant coach coupled with heady ginebra players... yung gameplan and execution ng game plan magpanalo ng series...

 

Greg guarding jmf is a given considering parehas sila ng posisyon and value sa team... what smb did not expect was the man-zone gsm threw at them...scottie and la (and their alternates) will chase down any outside shooters while jbl and jdv patrol the lane... with greg focused on jmf on defense, fajardo got his numbers but not the easyway...

 

Yung pahirap ni greg sa depensa was key as the gins saw open lanes kasi di na makahabol si jmf sa depensa... napagod kakalusot ke greg...

Speaking of Hackett, he combined with Super Bates in the 1986 Open Conference to give Ginebra the title over Manila Beer who had Michael Young and Howard Keeling as import. Ginebra was the clear fave in that conference. It was one of Ginebra's best conferences in its history. Mon Fernandez was still with Manila Beer then.

No, Mon Fernandez was absorbed by Purefoods when it bought the Manila Beer franchise in 1988. The trade happened after the second conference or All-Filipino conference in 1988.

nope... Mon Fernandez was the franchise player of manila beer but was traded to tanduay for abet g... in 1988, mon again was traded to smb for abet guidaben.. in both trades it was alleged that mon was involved in game fixing.... abet had expressed his dismay especially in the second as he was leading the MVP race in 1988 (which mon eventually won) and the fact that his career was affected by mon's issues...

 

 

this tanduay franchise was bought by pure foods and therefore got mon Fernandez and some stalwarts of the original franchise then had gotten jerry, jolas, nelson and Alvin...

Now that you mentioned it, yes, Mon was with Tanduay already when they beat Ginebra in the 1986 All-Filipino. My bad. I remember Guidaben crying because he was traded by SMB to Purefoods after the 1988 All-Filipino conference.

 

Anyway, Tanduay was a bitter rival in the corporate world and in the court. That All-Filipino conference was one of the most closely-fought championship contest. I remember hoping for a Ginebra win in Game 4. Alas, the Gin Kings lost that game and the championship.
