2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup

[Russlenat]

We can start putting our bet now, the early we bet the better as TNT had the momentum and they'll make sure to finish the series tomorrow.

The early spread is TNT kaTropa at -3.5, I'll take it as Magnolia has no answer on Williams.

If TNT will finished this series it's not hard for them to cover that handicap.

But knowing how PBA works, it can be a trapped for bettors. But stats wise and from how we witness how Williams making that big damages, without

any solutions from Magnolia, this series will end this coming game 5.  Paul Lee needs to help Sanggalang and Abueva to try extending this finals, without

his offense, the chance to win is very slim.

I'm glad that the line has moved to -4 now, seems like everything is in favor of the TNT to win now. The scenario that I like to see is that TNT will dominate from the very start so Magnolia will not be able to come back in the 2nd half, and if they will, there's no more time.

Mikey Williams enjoying what he is doing, no one can stop him, even Calvin who is a good defender, so TNT should win this.

If the line movement is the main basis then probably the line movement in game 4 does not help the Magnolia as the line is moving in favor of the Magnolia but what happened is that TNT routed Magnolia in that game. This is getting tricky but if you trust the TNT to finish the series tonight, you don't need to make a complicated analysis and just simply put your bet.

Take it. Base on the wins of both teams, the wins of TNT are by double digits while on the 1 win on MAG it only a single digit so getting a -3.5 spread for TNT is almost a sure win if they will win today and finish the series.
Kinda risky still since many are still expecting for MAG to at least extend the series to 6 games. There are 3 things that they need to do in order for them to win.
1. Stop Mikey Williams or at least lessen his points.
2. Defend the three point area.
3. Lessen the turnovers.

As for me, I think too that TNT will finish this series today but still nothing is certain until the final buzzer sounds . Good luck for those who will bet on TNT.

The game starts at 6:00 PM Philippine time, make sure you already put your bet so you will not miss the excitement.

No movement of the handicap now, for Magnolia, you can take them at +4 and you'll still get good odds, however, with how they play, I don't think it's still right to trust them to cover the spread or win the game tonight.

Again, this game looks like the last game of the series, here we go again, TNT has dominated the Magnolia and I think it will continue in the 2nd half.

The halftime score is 33-47, TNT takes the lead and Mikey Williams leads the team with 10 points.

[LogitechMouse]

TNT is just too much for MAG to handle as they win in Game 5 and getting the championship of the Philippine Cup. 4-1
I like the adjustment of the MAG at the start of the first quarter. 2 big man set-up to lessen the productivity of Mikey Williams but they didn't stopped him all throughout the game. Best player is Pogoy with 19 points and Williams still got 24 points.

At the time I'm posting this, it is already the awarding ceremonies and it seems like you can't see the happiness in the face of Coach Chot unlike the players who are shouting and you can see on their faces that they are happy with what they got. I wonder why . Kudos to the Magnolia still for getting the runner-up. No need to say what are the problems that Magnolia did since the conference is over. I'm thinking now that Magnolia must trade most of their guards and get some big players. They have too much guards in their roster. My opinion only.

The Finals MVP is Mikey Williams and its kinda expected already just by looking at his stats all throughout the Finals. Well deserved by him and the championship of TNT.
To the next conference . Anybody knows when will be the next conference starts??

[Yamifoud]

Congratulations to TNT for winning the PBA finals.

There's plenty of first-timers here on the TNT roster, I saw Pogoy and Erram crying for joy and they deserve it for all their hard work.
Undoubtedly, Mikey Williams also deserves to win the Finals MVP, he was cooking from game 1, and I think he is now a legit superstar for the PBA.

I'm wondering how much bonus they'll receive from MVP.
Mikey Williams should also not be shy of asking for a raise. 

[Kasabus]

To the next conference . Anybody knows when will be the next conference starts??

No announcement yet, it's nice if we will just wait for the announcement, and I hope to see imports by the next conference.

I like to greet the TNT also for winning the champion, it was a real effort shown by the TNT to finish the series, they can relax early and spend time with their family. Still a great job for the Magnolia to give their best even though some of their starters are struggling with injures.

They made a great run the whole season and this is the result of their hard work, they really show true compassion in Basketball. Still kudos for Magnolia for giving a good battle in the finals.

Mikey Williams is indeed a great player, though its too early to ask for a raise but for sure TNT will do their best to keep Mikey on they roaster. Congrats to those who bet with them as well, let's celebrate that! Looking forward for the next season.

The halftime score is 33-47, TNT takes the lead and Mikey Williams leads the team with 10 points.

They won it easily, the betting line is -4 for TNT and they cover it without a problem.

From the very start, they already show their eagerness to end the series and they made it happen.
1st to 3rd quarter, it was the TNT who won every quarter, and Magnolia only won the 4th quarter where it's already garbage time.

The last time they won, Paul Lee was the best player, this game he only manage to score 7 points.

[Johnyz]

Luckily I was able to place some bet and win some money, I hesitate at first because I though Magnolia gain their momentum after winning against TNT. The Mikey magic works very well for TNT, kudos to every players of this team and congrats to for some players on their first ever PBA championship. Next season will be more exciting as the top teams are so eager to bounce back, hopefully they can still done it early next year as we eases the quarantine protocol.

[harizen]

Going back prior to the start of the All-Filipino, Mikey Williams is asking for a much more offer than usual allowed for the rookie. It wasn't approved obviously because it's not allowed. Others here including me questioned that action since why ask for more if there's n any good performance from him yet.

And now, he already proved that he really deserves a high contract compared to usual. I'm expecting TNT will grant it. It's been a while that we see a rookie dominating the league. Hope there's more in the future even youngsters now prefer to play overseas.

Congrats! TNT finished the series without any problem, completely dominate the entire game.
Very poor performance from MAG who supposedly the one that should bring the fight to survive and extend the series.

But everything continue to ends well with TNT, Williams being backed up by Pogoy and Castro did it again dominating the scoring dept, MAG don't have any solutions unlike with SMB who give William the real competition., after beating SMB they've been unstoppable and show no mercy to win another title after 6 long years of waiting.

Kudos and well deserve win to entire TNT Squad!

TNT Katropa makes Magnolia a practice session lol. All 4 winning games by them are all outscoring Magnolia.  To be honest, TNT vs SMB is more of a Finals compared to that series. That TNT lineup will be their lineup for long.

What can you say about the Finals guys? For me, there's no tight competition at all. It's ok to lose but not a sure win right away for the other team.

Yup, the TNT vs SMB series is the more competitive series than the Finals maybe it's of injuries to Sangalang, Magnolia's main man in the middle. With him struggling, Magnolia doesn't stand a chance against the more athletic TNT in a series.

Let us also give credit to coach Chot Reyes for his brilliance in guiding the Katropa in their first championship in six years. Now we can conclude that coaching is one of the many reasons why they have failed to capture a crown for so long.

Congrats TNT, at least it's another face that we are seeing right now who held that championship trophy.

Soon if Jason Castro will retire, TNT will not have to worry as they have Mikey Williams to replace him.

This young superstar has impressed everyone as he won the finals MVP being a rookie, in fact, he played well in the series, he played like an import.
AFAIK, only Chris Ross can limit him, so it will be SMB vs TNT in the finals next conference, I think that's a good match-up as long as Fajardo will be 100% healthy next conference.

Exactly, Williams will be able to provide the offense necessary but at the same time, he also has to improve his passing skills. Jason Castro is a legit point guard, he doesn't need to score a lot but to make his team better by moving the ball very well, and that's what we saw in the series.

I'm sure Williams will have a lot to learn from Castro and hopefully when Castro retires, Williams will become a complete player.

Not a season yet as they only called it a conference.

Well, actually they only lose one game of the many games they played, which shows their character to win and since Mikey Williams had already won a Finals MVP, next conference he will be more confident and he will lead the team to another championship.

I guess the PBA's next conference will start soon as according to the report.

Now that the restrictions are getting better, I believe they can easily create another Bubble for a new Conference and mid November are impossible to happen though a short break for TNT after winning the title, that's still good as they are still fresh from the last conference.

Yes, Mikey Williams will have more confidence now, that's a big reward booster plus being a champion will always bring a good motivation to get another title.

I like to see how SMB will prepare in facing him again. That semi-finals is more like a final to me. MAG can't do anything about TNT's stars.
They are exploding from different side, Pogoy, Castro, Erram and Rosario are all there to help the team when Williams is being taken. I see personally that the best contender or best competitors against TNT is SMB.

It would be nice to see them playing in the finals, preparations are more than enough if the new conference will be announced.

Restrictions are getting lighter, we might see this new conference will be held inside metro. who knows, right?
