2024 PBA Governor's Cup

[matchi2011]

Last game for today, I'm picking the FuelMasters to win here.

Same here  and i was lucky that i was able to bet for Phoenix @2.20 early as the odds have shifted in the evening making the Phoenix LPG the favorite of this game @1.65 odds.

53-52 end of the first half, very close ball game with Lassiter hot in the 2nd canto but i doubt he could carry it on the second half.

One thing i observed, the Beermen just could not bring the ball down low to Tautua where there is a mismatch.

Beermen needs to find that mismatch as they needed that much coming this 2nd half, they can't just relied with same play over and over
as fuel master are adjusting from time to time.

With the score so close, those who are aiming for SMB to win are now getting much better odds. Anybody's ball game, as both teams needs to this win for much better position going to the playoffs.

Congrats to the winners and to the Phoenix, RJ Jazul was the player of the game, this guy is so hot with his 3 point shooing, he was 9/16 in the 3 point line and that really help the Phoenix to win. It was a team effort and Perkins, Calvin, and Wright are also contributing but it was the night of Jazul and his high in the season.

With this win, Phoenix climbed to the top 3 spot and if they stay their they will enjoy the twice to beat advantage.

The phoenix team could depend on this guy if he can maitain the good performance he just showed lifting the team to win. However, we know that in basketball if you are really good then you will get other team a special treatment like asigning someone to closely guard you against making a goos shots from the 3 pointer area. This is why other who are good at it will step up and change their attack style like steph curry.

We all know that Jazul is a deadly 3-point artist but the thing with him is he is not consistent. Lucky for the Phoenix LPG, Jazul had a career game and coach Topex trust in him paid off. If he could be consistent then i would not be surprised if Phoenix will be crowned champion in the bubble.

Dyip is due for a win and maybe this could be the day as they will entangle with the Bossing in the first game of the quadruple header today.

Blackater 1.66, Terrafirma 2.18, tempting?

[chaser15]

Blackater 1.66, Terrafirma 2.18, tempting?

Yes, DYIP odds is tempting. I actually got surprised for the odds on BlackWater.

But whatever it is, DYIP odds is worth placing a bet.

This one if tempting for me too: (Moneyline)
Barangay Ginebra 2.19
San Miguel TNT KaTropa 1.63

DYIP played better than Blackwater in all their games so far, so I believe DYIP would win here though they are the underdog of this game.

On SMB vs TNT,  this is surely a close game but of course Ginebra is still a better team, better in defense so they might as well win this game again.
TNT is good but I believe they have some problem with their defense, they are not consistent.

DYIP had win, and finally the Rookie has played well and he was the player of the game.
It's an up and down game, it wasn't really the DYIP who dominated the game, it's only in the 4th quarter that they have a great run and that is because CJ Perez had already taken over the game.

I'm capping this game now, I can't say much, maybe I'll just bet on the over/under, I'm more comfortable with it.

For clarification, should be Ginebra vs TNT.

I doubt TNT or both teams have a defense problem. They will not be 1st and 2nd spot in the standing right now if their defense is not that good.

Can't say who will win but the odds for BGSM is tempting knowing they have the same standing with TNT. My worries however are for TNT's Pogoy and Rosario. Once they explode, they are unstoppable. Their off-night performance is still averaging 15PPG on their 2 losses. Is that an off-night?

Ginebra can give a good defense on both, but you forgot one who are also a good 3 point shooting, and that is Rey Parks.
Japeth being an inside man, not showing much offense but his defense is still there, what TNT have to do is just to stop Pringle and they have a chance to win.

@Finestream , harizen is right because SMB are already playing the NLEX now. 

[Russlenat]

Ginebra is on the lead now with 10 points lead, in the first half, TNT were able to come back but then now they struggle again.
The defense of Ginebra was really clicking here, the pace is now dictated by the Ginebra as it's a low scoring game.

Live betting now

Ginebra -5.5

Ginebra ML 1.40.

Almost halfway in the fourth and BGSM still leading, very low scoring game it's still anyone's ball game since both teams are furious
and can handle any pressures.

Once the run take place both teams have the ca[abilities to push the game, 5mins is long enough to bring you back even your
opponents still in lead.

Very close only showing how this number 1 and 2 wanted to get the top position,
let's see who's going to take this game after the final buzzer.

Both of that bet won, Thompson could already give his team a good lead but he keeps missing FT in the last seconds of the game.
What an awful shooting night for the TNT, their 3 point shooting does not click here so eventually they lose.

People say they live and die on their 3 point shooting and we've seen that tonight.

Congratulations to the Ginebra, they have now owned a solo top standing position at 7-3.

C. Stand was really unstoppable here, this guy could be the key for the Ginebra to be the champion in the ALL FILIPINO CUP!

[harizen]

I skipped betting at BGSM. Should be a @2.19 win but it's fine because of what I've mentioned about TNT.

Ginebra can give a good defense on both, but you forgot one who are also a good 3 point shooting, and that is Rey Parks.

I didn't mention him because he is currently the most consistent player in the TNT based in my own view. I've mentioned only Pogoy and Rosario because their off-night performance is still averaging good numbers so just imagine if they are playing on their good night.

Congratulations to the Ginebra, they have now owned a solo top standing position at 7-3.

Should be 7-2.

And Standhardinger is on NorthPort mate. Maybe you are referring to Stanley Pringle instead?

Anyways, with his performances on their recent games (wins), Coach Tim Cone labeled him, not only as the most consistent Ginebra player, but the most consistent in the entire league.

Do you guys agree with Coach Tim?

[chaser15]

TNT is having the worst night, 5-of-41 from beyond the arc is totally crazy.

I understand as they just played a day before that game against Ginebra. They are surely tired because of the game after a game.

In playoffs, PBA should organize at least a day's rest. This elimination is exhausting. They are in rush. Triple to Quadruples is fine as long as no consecutive games by the same team.

[Fredomago]

And they needed to take some practice before the game meaning to say that they aren't well rested, you are right coming this playoffs
PBA needs to adjust.

Players are not robots they also needed some good rest, not because they are inside the bubble means that the players are well
rested since they are not going out.

For that current set up, the teams needed to play more and its really exhausting the players, adjustment
should be taking place, the boards needs to study all the possibilities for the best interest not only for the
players but for the league itself.

I'm not really paying attention to some PBA dramas but I think everyone here already read the news regarding Abueva's statement recently about his status to Ray Parks Jr.:

“Nagkita kami at nabanggit ko na, ‘Hey bro, sorry for the past few years na nangyari,” Abueva recalled of his meeting with Parks. “Sabi niya ‘It’s okay, keep up what you’re doing. I wish you’re gonna come back soon.”

But just now, Parks denied that he said something like that to Abueva and he is serious about that.

I can't imagine why Abueva should say that thing. He shouldn't lie about it and just let Parks if the guy doesn't want to make peace with him.

“‘I’m pissed off about the damn lie,” Parks said.

I have also read this article and TBH i'm pissed with Parks  . I know that what Abueva did to his GF was very disgusting but whatever he and Abueva would do would not change the past and better for him to forgive and forget thus making him divine hehe.

On the other hand, i think Parks got jealous on the attention Abueva got lately from the media. Don't bash me here, it's just my thought lol.

Let's just forget that drama, we never know who is telling the truth as they don't have a witness on that, one can fabricate a story, that's it. Focusing on the game now is what we should do and it seems like the team of Calvin Abueva is now winning in the race compared to TNT who has been struggling lately. They (Parks and Abueva) just prove their thing in the court.

But it's good to have some twist once in a while for a stress relieve of some sort  .

Back to the ballgame, TNT is on a losing skid and they will be playing against Meralco their sister team, do you think TNT would get help from the Bolts to get their confidence back?

Katropa 1.51, Bolts 2.44
Shy away from this or all-in for the Katropa?

It's just ok mate to discuss that thing alongside discussing gameplays of each team. Ray Parks is sure not moving on yet to that incident with Abueva so he is pissed-off to the latter's statement which turned out not true.

Back to the game, I noticed too that TNT is struggling with their last 2 games. It's only Ray Parks who is doing well on those losses. Something is wrong or maybe no need to push for a win and just relax their players as they can maintain 1st and 2nd spot for an automatic twice to beat advantage. Only a few games left in the elimination round.
