2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup

[blockman]

Let's just be thankful that finally, we will see the PBA start this month. IATF actions are not fast, we know that, so we should not be surprise, and good thing now that the PBA will not undergo into bubble, so the delay of opening maybe help them also.

Yes, we sure are thankful and happy that it's finally back. It's okay to read someone's disappointment as that's his opinion of what happened. And it's not going to take any longer as the games will be back in a few days.

I was checking for the schedule of games but in their official site, it's not updated yet.

Let's wait until the final schedule will be posted. I guess it's going to be shown within a day before PBA launches again. Everyone is really excited about the opening of it. We only have to wait and see until the schedules are already given and updated. Whoever goes on the very first game are lucky to be watched by most PBA fans because we're all waiting for it.

It was posted on their Facebook page. The PBA site is not updated yet but for sure it will be there too later on.

As we can see, triple headers every Wednesday, Friday and Sunday and double headers every Saturday. The venue is only on Ynares Center, just few kilometers at my place, although I don't know if few audience will be allowed since it's a semi-bubble.

Finally, it was just a topic recently and suddenly they've released already the schedules. I firstly saw it on a different page, the One Sports and not with their official page.

They will allow audiences to watch games?? I just hope that it will not be overcrowded but hey I forgot that even though there aren't any pandemics, the number of audiences watching the game is still few so.. yeah no differences . Still boring as it is so it is better to just watch on home than going there, watching a boring match.

Either way, I'm just happy that the professional league here in our country will start on the 16th . Lets enjoy watching some games.

Hahaha  That's rude but true! Even there's no pandemic aside from BGSM who have loyal
Brgy. fans other teams just bringing free tickets to have some fans to cheer them up!

But along the way, it's nice to now that the game is now rolling and fans participations are present to support the team that they are cheering with.

Those trades will now show up with the types of  hypes each players impacted the team who acquired them.

Still boring as it is so it is better to just watch on home than going there, watching a boring match.

Boring matches are those for low-tier teams so if the crowd is allowed, there only might be a few audiences, mainly friends, families of those players in those low-tier teams. But for teams on upper tiers, if the audience is allowed, they can at least get a 10-20% audience because of the limited capacity.

But I think audiences won't be allowed. There are no changes on the daily confirmed cases yet but the restriction got eased because the higher case came mostly outside Manila.

At least PBA tried to come back to a normal set up, eventually, the crowd capacity will increase with the approval of IATF, so it's alright, they are just starting and they will make a successful opening this month. So the first game is July 16, 2021 at Ynares Arena - Pasig City, that will be tomorrow.

we have 3 games available.

That's unsure if they'll allow audiences but I think they may as long as the protocols would be followed, there's no problem with that and this isn't a bubble set up so there's a likelihood. There's for sure social distancing for those chairs if ever they'll allow people to watch.

There will be folks that would love to watch the live games and make their tickets worth it as it is their hubby but yeah, I'll choose also to stay at home while watching those games. It's better to be safe than sorry since there's no difference watching it at home.

I think we will find out tomorrow if this is true.

Maximum 200 individuals inside arena during PBA games

Seeing an audience in the game is already a good start, which means the IATF is confident that everyone who are in the venue will be safe, and that is because they have vaccines already, so what I'm seeing in the future is that getting vaccinated will be the requirement before you can watch the PBA in the arena.

Better this way  to make sure that all those fans that will watch the game have lesser chance of spreading the virus. IATF knew that eventually fans will go and will support their respective teams.

Though just the same, COVID still exist and the threat of this virus still unresolve, better to ask for vaccinated fans than knowing that
the virus spread out.

Good luck to all the fans and to all the gamblers who are waiting for this league, it's time to bet again! "Kampihan na"

The article says "Maximum of 200 individuals" so I think it will include the players and staff of the PBA so I don't think fans are allowed at this point in time even if you are fully vaccinated.

The PBA will try its best not to be the "super spreader" so I think they will be very strict for now and follow every protocol set by the IATF. Even if it's a fanless venue, still it is going to be exciting that even though their original plan of opening in April drew some setback but still they manage to get the nod of the IATF to finally open tomorrow. So guys ready your crypto  .

Yes, I agree with you, it should not be boring because we waited for this for months and there they are, back again and tomorrow is the opening of games. I'm excited and will try to find the betting odds if it's already open, of course, I'll do that after today's NBA Game 4.

So guys ready your crypto  .

Thanks, we will for sure/

Let's see if that's already confirmed and verified, they'll put some announcement that's official release to let the fans know if that's for real.
I'm sure that before going into the audience entrance, you'll have to be tested negative and it's only for those fans that are willing to shoulder the expenses and really want to watch the live games. Well, if they want to watch some actions live, that's what I think is the first requirement and that is to test negative through RT-PCR. I hope that it's going to be the main testing that they'll do instead of antigen and other sorts of inaccurate testing.

That's a fact. Actually, I posted that too before that prior pandemic, PBA audience is not that great except when BGSM is on the playoffs to Finals or any teams at the Finals. However, it's not that games will always be boring, like for example it's not always NorthPort vs DYIP or BlackWater vs NLEX lol, so expect that there will still some people who will watch the game live.

And for the record, last 2019, I able to watch 6 games live at the venue, even watching those farms teams, since like I mentioned, I was nearby Ynares and Smart-Araneta in Cubao. It's only on MOA Area that I'm not able to watch live because I don't want to travel there during rush hour. About 25-30 minutes travel time from our home on usual traffic. Yes, the crowd is sometimes few especially on 1st game even it's Ginebra.  And sometimes free tickets are given to us (one of my friends is working in....) so take the opportunity, always at Upper B for free tickets but a good spot already for a good view.

Now we can confirm that the PBA is officially here because the betting line is already up.

Wow, I envied you mate  .

Whenever the PBA is playing out of town and they are in my place, I will never pass up the opportunity to watch them live especially if it's SMB that will be playing, it's always standing capacity in our local stadium. Wow, I miss those times but hoping that out of town games will be back soon and the new arena that will be built by SM (a little bit bigger than MOA as they said) will be finished by that time so we can see the home town boys (Fajardo and Slaughter) playing alongside each other not as an opponent as we usually see them when they are playing college ball.

I think with this pandemic it's not easy for me to watch the game live or in the arena, the travel restrictions are killing that opportunity. Also, the risk of getting infected is high and if you are travelling outside metro manila, there's a chance that you'll not enjoy your vacation as you might just end up getting quarantine. So, I would just watch them in television why putting a little bet on them.

Although the coliseum is accessible on my end and I can travel, I just don't want to be a warrior in the middle of the traffic, that's really common on the roads near to Smart Araneta but that's a good experience of you. I've got a friend too before that has offered free tickets because he's working for a certain company that gives out those tickets, maybe that's an incentive but sadly it wasn't pushed. I think I've watched games before, live but I can't remember those particular games because I was still young but I remember that I saw coach Tim Cone personally.

So with all you guys are saying, PBA is not that so popular now that people really want to watch and pay for the ticket. I guess they'll only make big sales during the playoffs or the PBA Finals, especially if the teams that are playing are big teams like Ginebra, SMB, Magnolia and TNT, let's include Meralco.

I'm not saying that it's not popular. It's still popular and I'm satisfied unlike the others that have said it, they feel that it's boring this time and that's what they feel. Usually, that's what is happening when the conference is about to end and it's like the semis or playoffs, that's really getting the attention of the fans. We mostly are skipping those usual games just like in NBA but there's a huge difference if we're going to compare it to them as their people are really supporting the teams and games.
