2024 PBA Governor's Cup

[Fredomago]

That ROS vs. Phoenix game was a thriller! Do you happen to know the betting odds for it? The ending was intense, especially that last-second sequence. Phoenix got lucky grabbing the ball after Perkins missed the 3-point attempt. They scrambled, and with only 1 second left, ROS fouled Phoenix's import. If ROS had snagged that rebound, who knows, the outcome might have been different. Whatta game!!!!

Import vs Import production, the win goes to the Phoenix.

Williams 29 points
Summers 15 points

That game was a real entertainer. It looks like Coach Yeng's return to his old team might not be a smooth ride. The team has undergone changes, and it's unclear whether his coaching style has kept pace with the new dynamics. With three losses already this season, ROS is yet to secure a win, posing a significant challenge for Coach Yeng in steering the team towards qualifying the quarterfinals.

On another note, Converge is also facing a tough start at 0-3.

That was a solid game unfortunately it didn't favor ROS despite of them playing a good game.
This is a process, and coach Yang should start adjusting because his old strategy might not be applicable anymore, that 0-3 start record is not good at all, if they really want to advanced to the next round then they should start doing something because they will face bigger teams on their next game.

Close game and almost a win for them, but luck did not favor them and failed to snatch this game against the fuel master, I think big adjustments is really needed for ROS, though in terms of coaching capabilities still believing that coach Yeng still got that touch it's so happen that players who are playing for him did not have what it's needed to be more competitive, if only we can take back time, if prime Big James Yap and prime Gabe with Bo' Belga for sure things will be more different..

We've got a doubleheader today with some powerhouse teams hitting the court.

First up, it's Bolts vs. SMB in the opening game, followed by Ginebra taking on Magnolia in the second match.

I'm rooting for SMB in the first game because I want to see them shake off that disappointing loss from their last outing. And in the second game, I'm putting my money on Ginebra to put a halt to Magnolia's winning streak.

As for the odds in the first game, SMB is favored by -5 with 1.46 ML odds for the win.

Great catch as SMB won the game with a 10 point deficit, both ML and handicap were covered, congrats to all those who bet on them. I did not watch the game just check the score card and I noticed that TRX already made his presence with 2 points on his debut game, playing minutes according to the stats he got 12mins while TR7 only got more than 10 minutes with 9 points not sure why TR7 got that limited game time again, hope he's doing well and no major injury that will sideline him.

They might be experimenting, or it's possible that Romeo is still under a minute restriction. He played a bunch of minutes in the first game, so my wild guess is they trimmed it down a bit in the second game. Haha, just speculating here. But hey, a win is a win, and they've shown they're a strong team by beating Meralco by double digits.

Meanwhile, in the Ginebra vs. Magnolia game, Ginebra had a big lead that's now down to just 7 points in the 4th quarter. This game has become interesting now.

Magnolia made a strong comeback, and the closest they got to the lead of  Ginebra was just a 1 point deficit. The game has become super interesting, and now it's a real ball game with both teams having a 50/50 chance of winning.

Unfortunately, those illegal live streams got taken down, leaving no option but to switch to the Smart 5G live stream, which is way too delayed compared to what's actually happening. Tough break!


And they got the first lead of the game, 83-85, Magnolia.

I did watch an interview somewhere from a social media post which TR7 explaining that he feel some pain after doing a fastbreak run and request for a sub to prevent any further injury, he wanted to make sure that he will be able to play more games this season and he take that decision to be bench to rest and not to force anything to save more energy especially with more important game to come.

And they completed the snatched, winning it against the Gin kings! what a controversial outcome, not sure if coach Tim together with the rest of the staff will file something against officiating refs. Very crucial foul, I think a review will be done here from the Brgy camp.

And they got the first lead of the game, 83-85, Magnolia.

Magnolia secured the win, thanks to their import playing fantastic basketball and hustling hard for a comeback. Coach Tim was disappointed in the game, particularly with the non-call, especially on Thompson's shot. However, that's part of the game and that's the PBA . Coach Tim, bounce back next time please, and we'll be supporting Ginebra to win, regardless of the spread.

The referees were already suspended, but it cannot change the game now. Ginebra could have won that game if the foul had been called because Scottie Thompson would have had 2 free-throw attempts.

Here's the latest news regarding that.

The PBA has suspended the referees who officiated the game between Barangay Ginebra and Magnolia which was marred by dissension over a non-call on what looked like a Mark Barroca foul on Scottie Thompson in his last attempt.

Justice was served. The league had to make a strong decision to keep the fans from being disappointed and to protect the reputation of the league, which has taken hits in the past due to similar incidents involving inaccurate referee calls or non-calls. They can't just let this slide, especially when the team involved is the most popular one. They'll scrutinize it closely, and fans won't easily forget about it.

Suspension, but they'll return again. I'm sure this will happen again in the future, and people will once more speculate that the PBA is rigged.

Anyway, enough about that—justice is served, so no more further discussion. Tomorrow, we have two games on the line:

1st game: DYIP vs TNT
2nd game: Northport vs NLEX

The bolded name of teams are my picks; I'm doing a parlay. Good luck!

Hahaha, indeed right, but hopefully with so many available referees better to replace them instead of suspending and let them do things again, I hate to add my opinion but it looks like PBA is really duplicating th NBA hahaha Refs are now being involve with game fixing/rigging hahaha..

Anyway, enough about that—justice is served, so no more further discussion. Tomorrow, we have two games on the line:

1st game: DYIP vs TNT
2nd game: Northport vs NLEX

I like both your picks and if by chance I also have that spare coins I will follow you with your parlay. Good Luck Kabayan!

The total odds for that parlay being 1.74 seem interesting. It's a bit puzzling why DYIP is a heavy underdog after a big win, especially when TNT is only at 1.14 on the moneyline against DYIP. Perhaps it's due to the reputation of DYIP, suggesting they might not be consistent in winning? It's worth considering that TNTis still undermanned, so a surprise is possible, but that's just my speculation. Personally, I also like the pick; it seems almost too easy. Good luck!

If game fixing is indeed occurring within the league, simply suspending or replacing a referee might not be enough to ensure a clean game. If the instructions are coming from higher up, the sanctions given could be a way to make it seem like the league is taking action against any appearance of rigging. However, without concrete proof, these concerns will likely remain as speculation.

Of course, anything can happen, but my bet is just best on the result of my very simple analysis, two strong teams playing a respective game against weaker teams, it's already automatic to bet on the strong teams, that's why this parlay came up.

[Finestream]

Of course, anything can happen, but my bet is just best on the result of my very simple analysis, two strong teams playing a respective game against weaker teams, it's already automatic to bet on the strong teams, that's why this parlay came up.

This is where upsets tend to occur—when the majority of bettors are all in on one team, leaving little room for the possibility of the other team winning. In my opinion, I wouldn't label it as easy. Gambling remains a risky venture, and bookies are adept at enticing bettors to ensure action on both sides.

Anyway, this isn't to discourage you. I hope you've already made your move, so I just want to say good luck. Personally, I'm not betting on the spreads or the outright winner. I've got my eye on the over/under for this game. Later on...

Exactly, if all the time heavy favorites are going to win then there's no brainer to place bets for them, and all the parlay picks will
resulted in a winning slip. But that's not the case even in a 99% winning percentage gambling still have that same risk, it can still go to the other side and leave you regretting placing your money to that kind of picks.

But, on the other side, I like the opinion of the post above you, it's a result of his assessment and no offense first already bring the
outcome and yes, it is an easy win for the Tropang testers.

One more game and the parlay outcome, I missed the chance to follow your pick as I lost my coins for the Sixers, hahaha..(off-topic)

Looks like there's nothing wrong with the pick, I mean the trend will continue and the favorites are winning, First game is over and TNT have clearly dominated the DYIP by 43 points, that was probably the biggest win this season. Who says TNT is gonna struggle now?

One more game and the parlay outcome, I missed the chance to follow your pick as I lost my coins for the Sixers, hahaha..(off-topic)

I guess NLEX is gonna win here and the parlay bet will win. As to the Sixers, yeah they lose, just a bad beat since the game went to OT but they still lose. I also saw the post of @finestream in the nba betting thread.



I just placed my bet for NLEX over 109.5. Good luck!

The next game kicks off in less than 30 minutes. I'm really curious about the handicap. I don't remember it initially being set at -3 for NLEX; that seems too easy to cover. NLEX is the team that pulled off a win against SMB with that epic comeback, while Northport got trounced by Magnolia. Bettors would probably jump on NLEX -3 in a heartbeat.

For sure TNT would miss their gunner when they face the likes of SMB Beermen and Ginebra Kings but for now, i think they will smoothly against opponents like Phoenix, Blackwater, NorthPort, and other teams that are not so strong talent-wise because they have a very talented import in RHJ.

I agree with you that the trend will continue so i'm gonna pick NLEX to win the second game.

NLEX -2.5 @1.80 vs NorthPort

Good luck to us.

I'm going with the flow, kabayan. As we speak, NLEX is already taking the lead in the game. If they can start strong, there's a good chance they'll keep it up in the second half. I mean, if they can make a comeback against a tough SMB team after a rough first half, they're bound to secure a win with a solid lead after the first half. So, placing a bet on -2.5 or -3 seems like a surefire win.

NLEX had a solid lead in the first quarter, but Northport's pressure defense worked like magic in the second quarter, narrowing the gap to a single-digit lead for NLEX. The first half concluded with a score of 53-60 in favor of NLEX. As for my bet, the only way I win is if NLEX scores at least 50 points in the last two quarters.

The -3 is still holding up well. With two more quarters to go, let's feel the excitement and enjoy the thrill.
