2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup

[Botnake]

Columbian DYIP is +2.5 against the Phoenix Pulse Fuel Master, this seem to be great for the Fuel Master backer, yeah, they struggled a bit but who would stop their very dominant import here, they are just playing against DYIP which is not really known for their toughness so experience wise, they should have the advantage here.

They have a new import, they replace Phelps with an NBA veteran https://www.spin.ph/basketball/pba/phoenix-brings-in-nba-veteran-a793-20191019
Phoenix seemed to be playing with the trend now and this is actually good for the PBA to see some high quality import, hopefully that would mean an improvement to them as a team.

here's his highlights, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqX90V3wiRM
if he will still play that way then I would say the Phoenix team is gonna be a team that is fun to watch, he loves to dump and we fans loves to see that kind of action everytime, its his debut today so let's see what he can bring.

The new import was really good, in the first half, he already scored 20 points but unfortunately his team is down 10 points right now.
Phoenix I know will not just give up, they will come back in the 2nd half, I believe in them so I am betting on that team through live betting.

They are +4.5 now, but since I trust them to come back, I would go with my instinct betting on them ML with 2.70 odds.
Hopefully my prediction is right or I will move on to the 2nd game.

Phoenix on the driver seat now after the end of the third canto 76-74, seems that you are lucky this day to get that 2.70 odds.

Anyway, one more quarter and this would be a close game  , and hope the winner is not Phoenix lol.

Back bet, what matters is the end of the final quarter as that's where we know who the winner is.
Phoenix just give me a little excitement but they still lose by the way so its a losing first game.

In the 2nd game, TNT/NLEX, I will still go with live betting now and I will take the NLEX at 2.70.
Bigs are in early foul trouble but hopefully its still a close game so I believe on chances and the import of the NLEX although he was outscored by the import of the TNT which already tallied 23 points in the first half alone.

[Questat]

In the 2nd game, TNT/NLEX, I will still go with live betting now and I will take the NLEX at 2.70.

Congrats on that win, you got a good odds in live betting, NLEX did really well in the 3rd quarter and they were able to hold on in the last minutes of the game. NLEX is maturing now, and they are rank in the number 2 spot now and could possibly end up as the number 1 as they beat the TNT in this game which is the number 1 with undefeated record.

Schedule for today;
First Game: Alaska Aces Vs. Blackwater Elite
Second Game: Ginebra San Miguel Vs. RainOrShine Elasto Painters.
I'm going with Black Water Elite against Alaska Aces, these both teams has 1 lost for their recent games, small bet for this.
Ginebra San Miguel for second game, import of Ginebra San Miguel is literally a beast, Ginebra has also good defense compare to RainOrShine.

I miss the first game but I was able to bet on the 2nd game, I bet on the ROS +6.5 in the 2nd game but looks like the Gins are already in control of this game. Still too early, even if Gins will win but as long as my team will cover, I will be happy with that. 

enjoy watching the game kabayan.

ROS now is still +6.5 now live. same line in pregame but but Ginebra is already in the lead but 3 points only.
Brownlee had 20 points already but not enough support from the local, I don't like the Ginebra when they are in this kind of scenario, so I would go against them.

I will also take +6.5 and a small bet for ROS ML.

That bet was a loss, as Ginebra manage to win with 9 points deficits didn't find time to watch it but seems BrownLee take charge having 39 points
such a great performance again with this favorite import from the gin kings. Even the locals did not participate that much this import take it and lift the whole team on his shoulder to escape from the ROS.

Brownlee did most of the offensive chores for the Kings especially in the fourth quarter but he got some precious help from Caperal and Thompson while Japeth and Slaughter were a gonner. Maybe the managament of Kings is thinking of trading this 7 foot gentle giant Slaughter, he is so gentle  .

I'm going with Black Water Elite against Alaska Aces, these both teams has 1 lost for their recent games, small bet for this.

You lost your bet if you bet with BWE.

To be honest, I don't want their recent trades that they made. Now their roster are composed of around 7-8 guards already. Their roster is like having a team of security guards (JK ). It is good if they only have 5-6 guards but they added 2 more and now it will be hard for them to defend big men. Now they are in the last spot tied with Phoenix, ROS and Alaska.

Ginebra San Miguel for second game, import of Ginebra San Miguel is literally a beast, Ginebra has also good defense compare to RainOrShine.

Not only that but they are #1 in assist right now with around 28-29 assist per game and that helped him to get the win.

What a big upset today on the game between the SMB  vs Meralco?
Did anyone able to bet on this game, what is the point spread and what is the odds for Meralco ML?

It is not an upset for me. SMB always having 60% to 75% winning on regular games. There is no pressure to them because what is important for them is to enter the next round. SMB has the top players in the league and they only step up after the regular games. Maybe they will lose the finals or in the earlier stages as they lost Christian Standhardinger in a nonsense trade.

That was superb performance of Meralco against San Miguel Beermen yesterday. I'm thankful I didn't able to bet any of games yesterday because I am rooting for San Miguel Beermen yesterday.

Their 1st half performance is worst especially when Wells, their import got injured. That was really an upset situation of the team, but on the second half they tried to come closer with Meralco but they didn't able to.

Is the injury severe? I did not see the game and I was not able to bet also.
Meralco is such a great team also because of their very competitive import, but in this game, meralco work as a team and that help them give a very convincing win.

It's only a sprain but it did affect his performance and he did return in the second half of the game which pave the way for that Meralco Bolt's win yesterday.

SMB is down on the standings and their quest for that grand slam is getting slimmer. They need to win all their remaining games to be able to have that twice to beat advantage.

STANDING UPDATES
After amazing recent games, let's take break and analyze about the standings of the current conference.
Here's the updated standings as of now.
Still TNT Katropa is leading as top seeder and Blackwater Elite is the bottom team with only 2 wins and 6 losses together with 3 teams; Alaska, Rain Or Shine, and Phoenix.

I am expecting on TNT Katropa that they will not only good in early stage of conference, hoping they will still hold until championship. Andk kudos to NLEX Road Warriors and Barangay Ginebra for  having 3 streak wins.

[bisdak40]

NLEX remaining games versus:

-Rain or Shine
-Magnolia
-NorthPort
-Alaska

^^ very beatable teams with the current lineup of NLEX Road Warriors and the probability of them being on the top of the standings after the elimination is very high because they have beaten TNT already. Quality import and Keifer Ravena back in form, we can expect this team in the Finals soon.


SMB on the other is struggling to be in the top 4, if they can't land in the twice to beat advantage spot, their quest for the grand slam is over for now.

The standings doesn't matter to me, still it's SMB teams to reach the finals. Just like previous conferences, nlex is always leading and they collapse during playoffs. It's a scripted scenario we have in the PBA so that people will think SMB teams are weak which they are not.

Don't say that, I will fully disagree with you because SMB has been in this situation many times and yet they still win in the end.
They can beat a team with their good line up, even if they have to beat them twice, this is why I like to beat on SMB when they really need to win as I know they will give everything they have to win, and with their current local line up now and their beast import, they can certainly win as long as they have the chemistry and remain calm when playing.

Lol, yeah we've seen them in scary situations but it should have not that way always. Even coaches in the PBA agree that SMB is vulnerable during playoffs and they became a scary team during a best of 5/7 game series. BTW, they still have a chance to land to the top 4 if the Bolts will loss two games and SMB winning all their remainder games.
