2024 PBA Governor's Cup

Ginebra controlling the entire game since the start. It seems or maybe we should conclude now that Ginebra will enter the Finals. Even Stanhardinger was ejected early in the game due to Flagrant 1 Penalty II, doesn't seems a problem for Ginebra. The hot shooting on Ginebra just continues even if those shots are defended well. Magnolia has no answer.

3 minutes left in the final quarter and the score was: Brgy. Ginebra  94 | Magnolia 78 - Just waiting for the Final score.

Congrats Ginebra fans.

Ginebra will advance now to the finals, as expected the chance of Mags is really slim almost a sweep if it's not with that winning shot of Paul lee but most of us if not all are expecting that Ginebra will advance to the finals, now it is concluded and they will wait now if SMB will try to push the series or the visiting team will complete the semis and will move to finals and meet BGSM.

Get that money ready now, odds are already available.

Odds are now slightly adjusted at this moment, especially on the Manila Clasico:

From @1.77, Magnolia is now @1.85 to win the game.
From @1.94, Brgy. Ginebra is now @1.86 to win the game.

This just shows us how bookies think that this game will be close.

Anyways, already place a parlay on Ginebra and Dragons Moneyline.

Good luck bettors!

One more win and that will be sweet Kabayan! let see if the Bay Area will finish it or if SMB will ask for another game and push it to do-or-die game.

Very exciting game so far, though the Dragons are leading the game but I believe SMB will have another win to even the series. This will be a close game, those who take the spread should be confident that they will cover even if SMB will lose the game, as for me, I took a riskier bet, I have the SMB ML.

The first half is over, Bay Area is gaining the advantage by 8 points. It was a low-scoring game, I thought it will favor the SMB but slowly the Bay Area are getting their outside shots.

Halftime score: 46-38. Good luck on your bet guys, let the SMB even the series. 

[Questat]

Congratulations Bay Area Dragons, they beat the SMB 3-1.

That was an intense game, if CJ's 3 point shot went in, things could be different and we might see a game 5 for this series.
But hey! it's all over, series over for both semi Finals and we will now see the Ginebra vs Bay Area.

So let the betting begins.

My predictions were right . Ginebra Vs. Dragons in the PBA Finals.

I mean that would be more enjoyable than Ginebra Vs. SMB right or SMB Vs. Magnolia . One thing more is that Ginebra really is performing very well on a conference that has an import. On the other hand, the Magnolia still has the curse. The "Perform well during eliminations but can't convert it into title" curse. It happened many times to them already that's why I call it a curse.

SMB has some highlights as well even though they lost. The circus shot of Perez in the 2nd quarter and the Devon Scott poster over Nicholson in the 4th quarter. I mean if you watched it then you might saw it. The problem with SMB coming to Game 4 is JMF is having an ankle or foot injury IIRC and Tautuaa is injured. They don't have any big that can match Nicholson or even Liu on the paint. The Dragons are also quicker than the Beermen and I also saw one time where both Liu (7 foot 5 inch player) and JMF ran in transition and Liu out speed him. The Dragons are more athletic, quicker, taller and stronger.

It's over and my favorite team lost but seeing Ginebra Vs. Dragons is much more enjoyable. A win-win for both the audience and the management. I'll bet on this series that's for sure. Maybe somebody will act as an escrow again here and some bettors will put some bet? What do you think.

So close but not enough. Yeah! It's going to be Barangay Ginebra and Bay Area Dragons in the finals. I think that this is going to bring more crowds to the coliseum. A guest team that has finally reached the finals and we're all going to cheer for our very own Gin kings against these giants. It's possible that this is going to be up to game 7.
First game is going to start on the Christmas day, December 25. I'm sure that many will gift themselves a ticket to watch this first finals match on this conference.

I think they can't dictate the guess team to manipulate the game since this will expose the league that there's a game fixing especially on finals where that mostly happen on local games. Maybe for now since Dragons are into the finals we can see a real intense game but I think Ginebra still no match with this since Dragons is so strong hopefully teams in PBA learn a lot from them.

This will be an exciting match up, a heart of a champion and the team that are so eager to win their first championship here in the Philippines, Bay Area are more eager to probe themselves in PBA. The odds will surely in favor to Ginebra in game 1 because we all know, their fans will always be there to support them. Bay Area on the other hand should not be intimidated with the fans, they should focus more on their gaming plan. Honestly, its hard to place a bet but I will go for Ginebra here.

SMB Beermen vs Dragons was an exciting series but the other matchup was not. On paper, i thought that Magnolia has a chance to be in the finals by defeating the Kings but it turned out to be a blowout game in games 3 and 4.

Anyways, series is over, and congrats to those who bet for the Dragons and the Kings.

@harizen and Maslate, kindly dm me your Gcash number so i could pay your winnings.

jakelyson, hey bro please communicate with them on how you gonna pay them their winnings, thanks.

Is there going to be local betting again for the finals?

[harizen]

That was an intense game, if CJ's 3 point shot went in, things could be different and we might see a game 5 for this series.

Prior to CJ Perez's attempt to snatch a win, there are lots of open shots on SMB that they didn't manage to went in especially those missed free throws of their import Scott although overall he has a great performance in that game. Also, that wide-open 3-point shot attempt by Marcio Lassiter courtesy of Fajardo's rebound also missed.

The whole 4th quarter is intense and both teams are changing leads. But damn Dragons they are really dangerous in a 3-point area that even contested and defended well, they can still shoot the ball. Kobe Lam is insane and has shot shooting in the rainbow area.

I'm open for local betting in the Finals and will side with Ginebra. But is there anyone who will bet for Dragons here?

If only other teams except Ginebra will face the Dragons, I will pick Dragons instead.

[Maslate]

@bisdak40 and  @jakelyson. PM you already my GCASH number.

So let's move on to the Finals. I will be rooting for the Ginebra Gin Kings to win. I have Php 10,000 to risk.

It's the 3 point shooting of Bay Area that save them against SMB. If only SMB has some good outside shooters, things could be different as they control the inside which makes them unpredictable. Unfortunately, only CJ is doing his job, he seemed to be the import of the team as he is the most productive player in that game.

That is a lot of money to risk. I wonder if there are any Bay Area Supporters here. I am also reluctant to support them now because their opponent is Ginebra. We all know, Ginebra has a big fan base and that could affect how well they perform. They perform very well in front of their fans.

On the other hand, Bay Area is really dangerous specially their outside shooting. And their coach is also something else. We saw how quickly he adjusted against San Miguel.

[Ziskinberg]

Looks like there's no Bay Area Dragon bettors here.... am I right? hehe.

All I see are the bets for Ginebra San Miguel, and I guess Bay Area is the favorite, so why there are no takers for the Bay Area?
I'm just here to observe guys, let's see if I'll be enticed to join the action.

Anyhow, congrats to the winners, especially to those who bet on SMB spread.

Moving to the finals matchup and betting, money is getting bigger, do we need someone to escrow or just the usual P2P where we trust each other to pay the winner if we lose?

Not for SMB to push a do-or-die game, they've got a lot of opportunities in winning the game but those open shots didn't fell while Bay Area made even those contested shots which bring them the win, The last shot of CJ is a duty call which he needed to take a win or die shot, hard call but it's his obligation to take that responsibilities.

Moving forward, the finals will be intense. I see both teams are capable of bringing each player to matchup both in offense and defense.

Good luck mga Kabayan! just like the trademark of PBA " Kampihan na!

SMB almost win the match and what we saw there are many opportunities to take a shot but they did not handle that situation two points lead by Bay Area is one position game by SMB and Bay Area dragon miss thier winning shot and the ball goes to SMB but the three point shot by CJ Perez and fajardo did not do it.  Enciso has the ball with 2 opponent ahead of him I think if he gonna take that opportunity then maybe he dot it. But they look for Perez to take the shot.

Let's all forget about manipulation and stuff, let's enjoy what's about to come on Sunday and it's for sure going to bring the whole league's team against only one giant, the Dragons.
We'll see if Ginkings are really no match for them but this is finals and it's going to be the most serious match for both teams. And they'll for sure do everything they can to win this conference's trophy.

Hard to place a bet on the first game where both teams are on a good run of winning and we know Ginebra can be more aggressive now that they are into the finals again. Bay Area might have a better chance of taking the first game though, they seems to be more consistent this conference compare to Ginebra. Looking for some good odds as well for Ginebra, can’t decide yet on where to place a bet, finals are more interesting.
