2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup

[bisdak40]

Did Jackson Corpus gets investigated if the foul was intentional or not?

Look at the video and the reaction of the viewers, they say it's intentional and Corpuz did a dirty job over Troy Rosario.

I played basketball and that's the one thing I'm afraid will happen to me, fortunately, it didn't. Damn what a bad fall, I could say that there's a little bit of momentum on the side of Jackson Corpus and a little bit of intent to push, hard call if I were the referee  .

Things are getting ugly now in the PBA and it seems that they are self-destructing. Issues of game rigging, bad officiating, and players opting to play in Japan, could PBA survive these issues?

We understand that there's a tough competition between these two teams, but they should always remember they are still family and that brotherhood will remain. Jackson could have held Troy Rosario and that would have prevented him a bad fall, maybe Magnolia are just too desperate to win the game and they forget that basketball is a game.

A short update regarding the no-contact foul controversy. The referee that whistled the call is already dismissed and will not officiate with the future games anymore and Commissioner already said that they are investigating the incident. Its clearly a wrong call we know that.

Do you think something will be cooked after this dismissal? 

are they going to investigate or just fired the officiating ref and forget about what happen?
Very poor decision coming from that referee, but who knows how much he's going to take
after doing his participation with game fixing?

Remember that same rumors way back last NBA season with CP3? I just can't recall the
name of that officiating ref who allegedly doing stuff that really affects CP3's games.

Let see if we will hear more about this game 3 issues and if that ref will voice something
out to trigger the issue with these rumors

True, I also play basketball and the very first thing in my mind when playing is to make sure that there's no accident that will happen not just to me but also to all the players that I'm playing with. I agree that this kind of action should be investigated a very clear intentional act. Rosario is not by far for not to try holding him and prevent this kind of fall.

I see why Castro reacts that way. He clearly sees that there's no intention of Corpuz to help and avoid that hard fall. 

Hoping that Rosario's health aside from that finger but those other long-term effects of that hard fall will be detected and prevented
for much bigger damages.

I'm a Mags fan but I didn't like the refs' call to Heruela and there was no foul. That will be a problem for TNT now if only Mikey Williams makes the team, it will be difficult for them to win the Mags even if Mikey scores 50 more. It's c Mikey Williams monster on offense but very weak on defense or just really lazy? Paul lee's defense is even better, he can be the scoring champion, bpc and Roy but never be mvp. if only he was diligent in defense, then he could be a rookie/mvp like Benjie Paras, eh, in case he's annoyed, just look at his defense like a statue. how can that be if the offense is unlucky?

The PBA already relieved the referee who made a bad calls in game three and this is a proof that there’s no foul and lucky to Magnolia by that time. Also with the injury player in game 3 this will be a huge challenge for TNT to remain on top, I’m sure Magnolia will take advantage of that so TNT must always be ready. Offense of TNT should be contributed properly so they can still win, they must play as a team.

TNT has no problem with their offense as Mikey Williams is very unstoppable, their problem now is their defense inside as without Troy Rosaria, TNT is at least not 100% anymore and as you said, Magnolia would take advantage of that. However, they still have big men who can play and contribute, TNT have Kelly Williams, Marcelo, and Poy Erram.

They should take advantage to even the series, if they failed expect that TNT will end this series in game 5. It's been a long delayed for TNT to win another title and with coach Chot they will not give any chance to their opponents if they see the advantage. William really playing big. He's being backed up by both Castro and Pogoy allowing him to bring his best game without any interruptions from these two veteran stars.

We will see if how Magnolia will adjust and take every opportunity to tie this series and forced to extend their survival.

It's needed to forget about what happened last game 3 and both teams should focus on their strategy this coming game 4.. Good luck!

Just to change the discussion regarding officiating, I like to point out the adjustment (or I considered it as a test strategy) that Magnolia did during Game 3.

We all know that no guards or any forwards from Magnolia can keep up with the phase of how TNT's Mikey Williams is playing. Magnolia is having a hard time how to stop his dominance. In their Game 3 win, M. Williams was still able to produce 39 big points for the TNT despite a loss. That's not a usual production for any players in the league with consistency.

During the 4th Quarter, Magnolia assigned the veteran Rafi Reavis to guard the unstoppable M. Williams, and guess what, he only shot 1 out of 5 attempts from the rainbow area. Effective or not, looks like Reavis is able to slow down him although just for a single quarter.

TNT will certainly make an adjustment too in game 4, they cannot afford another loss and allow the Magnolia to knock out the door of opportunity to tie the series. Getting a 3-1 lead gives them a big breathing room and I think they can still make it even without Troy Rosario who was reportedly doubtful for the rest of the series.

They all make an adjustment every game, just like the TNT vs SMB series, it was a roller coaster ride where the series end in 7 games, in this series, it's possible if Magnolia will be able to come back to even the series and since Troy is down, they'll take it as an opportunity to attack the paint and it's time for Calvin Abueva to shine who was not so much of a factor in the PBA Finals yet.

Energy is what the Magnolia needs and it's good that Jalalon receives some credit publicly as he has been playing with so much energy.

Troy Rosario plays a big impact on TNT and missing Game 4 or I think the whole series somehow lessens the power of TNT. But that's not the end as TNT can always make an adjustment. Magnolia should take advantage of that and try to copy their performance in the last game or much even better.

I still don't see TNT being handicapped because of Troy Rosario's injury. If Magnolia won't be able to even the series, goodbye to them now. There's no magic to defeat TNT 3 times consecutively in a row unless another main player of TNT will be injured. Hope no more injuries the same on Magnolia.

[chaser15]

What happened now to Jackson Corpuz? Cleared to play the next game or not?

Regardless, he's not contributing much to the Magnolia. He is inconsistent. With or without him on the floor, there's no bearing. No offense to his followers here but just stating what I observed. No adjustment and stepping up is seen at this player even he is given a good playing time by Coach Chito Victolero.

He already has an issue about that too much physical game when he clashes with Cliff Hodge during their series against Meralco.

[Shamm]

Great win by magnolia from the first quarter until the fourth they got the lead. Besides that Rr pugoy in TnT scored well in the first as we can see the determination of that player aiming for victory but only one team will win. Nice work for Pugoy we can do it nextime.

[Vaculin]

What happened now to Jackson Corpuz? Cleared to play the next game or not?

He is available next game as no announcement that he is suspended in game 3.

However, the news came out that he was fined Php 20,000 as the foul was upgraded to flagrant foul penalty 2.
I think the PBA really made a close investigation on what happened and I guess this fine is not enough, at least a suspension of 1 game since Rosario might not be able to play for the remaining games due to the injury he suffered from the dirty act of Jackson Corpuz.

Pogoy only score 14 points as you can see in the boxscore.

If you would like to thank someone, it should be Mikey Williams as he is the one who has contributed big time to this game.
He scored 39 points, that's almost 40% of the total score his team made in that game.

Jackson Corpuz was mitted with a stiff penalty, 20k Php is stiff lol. At least the PBA had some explanations on that action of Corpuz of bumping Rosario airborne. The article says that Rosario is doubtful to play on game 4 so I think he is still in this series and he might rest for tomorrow's game and come back in game 5.

Even though Rosario might not play, the Katropa have Mickey Williams who played like an import, seems that magnolia has a hard time stopping him.

TNT -2.5 @1.97, I think this is a good bet. TNT should not let Magnolia equalize the series that might boost their confidence going into gme5.

You can take TNT -2.5 at 2.06, this is hinting something, maybe the rig is gonna happen again so the series will be even. Though Troy Rosario's stats were not so impressive in the finals his impact on the floor is huge for the team, so his loss is also huge. Good luck with your bet man, may you win it tonight.

There's no need to rush as according to the trend now, looks like TNT will be the underdog in this game.

As of now, you can get TNT ML at 1.95, and that's better compared to the -2.5 @1.97 which was bisdak40 took earlier.
The line movement was insane, it's very suspicious and I have a clue what's gonna happen in this game.

[Sanitough]

Magnolia will play tight defense, same with the TNT as they don't want to see TNT even the series.

It's hard to predict who would win in game 4 but I have a feeling that the game will go under.
So, with that said, I'm betting on under 182.5 with 2.1 odds and 0-150 total points with 64.7, might as well put a bet live.
