2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup

[Distinctin]

It's not tomorrow yet but on Sunday.

Here's the schedule.

First Gilas game would be on February 22, 8 p.m., against Hong Kong, followed by the match against Chinese Taipei on February 25, 7:30 PM.

Technically since we are following local PH time here in this thread, it's now February 24th here.

Same here, I also didn't see yet some bookies listing the upcoming FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers game between Gilas and Chinese-Taipei.

I suggest checking those local bookies within the GCASH app under GLIFE.

I just checked our local bookies, specifically Sportsplus, which is under GLIFE, but could not find that particular game. Both in the local listing and basketball in general, there are no betting odds yet. Well, this is for tomorrow since it's already 2:31 AM in the Philippines now, but let us not lose hope on this. Come back and check again an hour before the game.

You guys are too excited.

Just wait for it and it'll be up soon. I was wondering if anybody here were able to be last game? I'm sure that was an easy win as Gilas had dominated the Hongkong by like 30 points (more or less). So if I guess it right, maybe the spread was just around -10 to -15 but sure it's not -20 or more.

Here, I would like to share my guess too, since Chinese Taipei has been a good rival for Gilas Pilipinas during the time of oach Chot (learning experience) then I guess the maximum would be -10. So are you willing to take that high spread?

You can't blame us to be so excited because we've see how Gilas dominated on their first game and we can't miss the opportunity to bet. Just checked again on the sportsbook I'm using but still could not find any odds, again I'll be patiently waiting and hopefully by tomorrow it will all be out.

Here, I would like to share my guess too, since Chinese Taipei has been a good rival for Gilas Pilipinas during the time of oach Chot (learning experience) then I guess the maximum would be -10. So are you willing to take that high spread?

With how the first game of Gilas turned out, it's not impossible to see that kind of spread. And your question, whether I'll take it even though it's high? Yes, of course. Bookies aren't fools to offer that kind of odds if Gilas is not capable of covering that. If you have doubts, just sit that one out, but for me, I love to gamble on spreads that are high like that.

They bring hype to the fans, and no matter what the point spread is, the Filipino fans are gonna take it. Well, there's no denying that they were dominant, they might surprise their opponents since they are a completely different team. You can see the passes, and they're not gonna force the shot. Instead, only those who are open can take the shot with confidence.

This was the kind of strategy that basketball enthusiasts have been suggesting before, but Coach Chot at that time was not into that style. Instead, he was more into ISO with his trusted players, and their 3 point shooting percentage wasn't so consistently high.

If I have spare money I can personally take that spread, after witnessing the last game I can say that  Chinese Taipei will have a hard time stopping the system of coach Tim, the blending of players and the trust he's building among them brings additional inspiration in each gilas players. Though we can't conclude what might be the outcome but as personal take I can say that it's really a different squad in terms of team executions, it's no longer a learning stage but a pure competition that they all wanted to win.

Perhaps, we are the new kings in Asia after winning the title in the Asian Cup. We are now very competitive and can beat giant teams like China, as well as other strong teams like Japan and Korea. Regarding the betting odds, they are still not available at this time, and I could conclude that we won't be able to make a bet on this game. It's alright, I guess, as long as we can watch and enjoy it.

After this game, if they can win and achieve a 2-0 record in the qualifier, they can go back to their leagues, and maybe the PBA will also resume soon.

As seen in https://pba.ph/schedule,, the first game will start in February 28.

We will find out tonight if they could take another dominating win, but for me, even if it's a close game, a win is still a win, and that is something I would be happy for our national team. We haven't seen them this good in the past; that was many years before Coach Chot finally gave up the job or TNT as well because it is now SMB that is taking care of the job, and the journey has been impressive so far.

and maybe the PBA will also resume soon.

As seen in https://pba.ph/schedule,, the first game will start in February 28.

I hope that is final as sometimes the schedule in their website is unreliable.

And this is backed by the news, https://pba.ph/news/season-48-phl-cup-opens-wednesday-nas-new-pba-venue

IN less than a week, PBA Season 48 hostilities resume with the kickoff of the Philippine Cup pitting Terrafirma versus Converge and NorthPort opposite NLEX at the Ynares Sports Center in Antipolo on Feb. 28.

It's the Philippine cup, or the All Filipino Cup (correct me if I'm wrong) which means no import is allowed, this is another exciting conference, expect a low scoring game on majority of the games.

Maybe yes, as per checking there's no available odds and if that happened as long as we can watch and enjoy the game it's all good to me, with your statement, I do see good future for this new selected squad they are been selected based from their capabilities they are all a team player even CJ as we know him but he's showing big respect with how coach Tim calling for the play and he's recognizing the importance of good ball movement.

If they continue that kind of a team play, we can say that we do have a good edge in Asian Cup and that target to reach the Olympics is no longer that far to achieved.

I just saw the betting odds for the game tonight between Gilas Pilipinas and Chinese Taipei. We thought -10 is high, but it's actually -24.5. Now, who has the courage to take that high spread? Personally, I have a little doubt about this, as it is the first time I saw the Philippines as a heavy favorite in the FIBA Asian Qualifier, and they are up against a decent team, albeit lower in ranking than the Philippines.

I might try to have some fun here; maybe I'll bet on the opposite team, as they have a very attractive x20 moneyline odds.

Maybe because people are been so hyped with past result on hongkong where they get 30 pts lead and take a win. But Chinese taipei is decent team so provably we cannot a see a same like situation on hongkong and I expect we can see a good match up here.

But for now not going to bet on either Philippines or Chinese taipei since I don't feel any excitement on this most likely we can see at the end of this sequence that Philippines would be the winner after the end of the match.

X20 money line odds though but I think for now I'm fine watching the game without placing any bets.

It would be nice if we have a head to head record for these two teams including their previous match ups so we can analyze if the line which is -23.5 now is overvalued. This is only the information I was able to search online, https://livescores.biz/basketball/h2h/chinese-taipei-19883-vs-philippines-7905

Based on that record, Philippines has been dominating this team but not all in a blowout win, so I think -23.5 is quite high for Gilas to cover although we've see how impressive they were as for sure no team will compete in this big league unprepared.

Better if we have, but unfortunately, there's no website yet that is as popular as those that record statistics in NBA games. So for now, we can just rely on what we remember about these two teams and do some further research. It may sound challenging, but it's never impossible to find information that would help us analyze the game we are betting on. At least, let's not bet blindly on this.

They look prepared, and the game is already ongoing. We are in the first quarter now, and just like the Philippines game vs Hong Kong, it's a close game.

[mirakal]

This looks like the same scenario as in the first game of Gilas. The score is 27-52, and that is just after the first half. This lead will likely increase more in the second half as Chinese Taipei is struggling to make a shot because of the great defense of Gilas. The ball movement is still present, almost a perfect execution every time, so there's really no one heavily carrying the ball as everyone is sharing it effectively.

Less dribble and more passing, that has been what is happening now, and I doubt that Chinese Taipei still has the capability to come back and make this a thrilling game. I would say advance congratulations to the Philippines already.

Stats wasn't necessary on that game as Gilas still dominate the game. I thought that the team that they faced tonight was way better than the Hongkong but I was wrong because against Hongkong, it was only a 30+ victory but tonight Gilas dominated with 50+ victory. The level of confidence must be so high. In this window, the closest rival for Gilas is New Zealand. I hope they will face each other soon so we can avenge our loss to this strong team in the past. I heard from the commentators that Gilas will be back by November for another game. I'm not sure of the mechanics, but it's good that we have something to look forward to.

They only looked prepared at the beginning, but Gilas was able to dictate the game. As evidence, there wasn't even a quarter that Chinese Taipei had won. Despite Gilas leading by a huge margin, they are still playing with the same intensity.

The outcome dictates that Gilas really improves the system,  no more dribble drive but more on sharing and finding the open man to execute the design play, I like how they are sharing the court and aside from that the way they play defense which is really important, they are covering each other's back the very reason why Chinese Taipei  unable to gain a rally to try getting closer, they've been dominated from start to finished and it was a huge deficit.

Those who take the risk for that handicap are all taking their Sunday's of with a good celebration after the game, a well deserved wins for both  the players and the management 👏  well done 👏  "Sulit baga" in our language.

I really never thought to see such kind of performance by Chinese taipei since I thought they are more better than hongkong but it seems that they are not and have many lapses on that game. They cannot penetrate inside and they are only relying on long shots especially on 3pt area since the defense of Philippines is so tight. This is indeed a great 50+ pts victory and we can say that current Gilas is really good and perfectly fit the the system of their new coach. Next opponent is New Zealand which is way more stronger team and if they can able to defeat them without any issue then problem that this mix vets and young Gilas players have huge chance to go far on this contest. They can also get a sweet revenge with this country in their last meet up.

All they receive now are praise from the fans, and I'm sure they are so happy with that.

Because of their impressive games, there's a news that they receive an invitation to play with the strong teams in FIBA.
here's the full news.

Gilas Pilipinas head coach Tim Cone bared that invitations have come their way for their build-up toward the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament 2024 in July.

The veteran mentor said that European teams such as Lithuania and Slovenia have invited the Philippine team to come over, as other federations are also keen on preparing the best they could in a bid to get tickets for Paris.

“We’ve got some invitations from Lithuania, Slovenia, and the Czech Republic, we’re gonna work our way through those and see what we can do,” he said.

Nothing is set in stone yet, though, with the Philippine team given just 10 days to prepare for FIBA windows as per the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas’ agreement with other basketball stakeholders like the PBA and the UAAP.

That includes the OQT – where Gilas will be playing in Latvia – as well. “The window for us to do it is only 10 days,” said the 65-year-old bench tactician.

“That’s our agreement with the PBA, that’s our agreement with the NCAA and UAAP, and also the agreement with the Japan league – they can only release them for so long for a FIBA window. Ten days it is for us,” he added.

This one is great news, and I'm not surprised why this came up. The way Gilas played in the last two games showed how good their lineup is, and they are deserving to play with the big boys, the teams with the better ranking in the FIBA World Cup. I hope they'll televise this game so we will see if we are really strong enough to compete with the best in the world.

What do you think about Gilas now? Will they qualify for the Olympics?

About the naturalized player, which is better, Clarkson or JB?

All they receive now are praise from the fans, and I'm sure they are so happy with that.

Because of their impressive games, there's a news that they receive an invitation to play with the strong teams in FIBA.
here's the full news.

Gilas Pilipinas head coach Tim Cone bared that invitations have come their way for their build-up toward the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament 2024 in July.

The veteran mentor said that European teams such as Lithuania and Slovenia have invited the Philippine team to come over, as other federations are also keen on preparing the best they could in a bid to get tickets for Paris.

“We’ve got some invitations from Lithuania, Slovenia, and the Czech Republic, we’re gonna work our way through those and see what we can do,” he said.

Nothing is set in stone yet, though, with the Philippine team given just 10 days to prepare for FIBA windows as per the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas’ agreement with other basketball stakeholders like the PBA and the UAAP.

That includes the OQT – where Gilas will be playing in Latvia – as well. “The window for us to do it is only 10 days,” said the 65-year-old bench tactician.

“That’s our agreement with the PBA, that’s our agreement with the NCAA and UAAP, and also the agreement with the Japan league – they can only release them for so long for a FIBA window. Ten days it is for us,” he added.

That show how good their line up is and how also good the system brought up by coach CTC. I never thought they take a huge lead again Chinese Taipei since I though they are way more better than past years, but we see a worse performance that's why they had been dominated by Gilas.
Also good to see those invitations from European team since we can see and test how good the current Gilas roster since if they can able to perform so well and defeat those strong ball clubs then we might all agree that future is so good with Pilipinas basketball team.

I will take JB since he's not a selfish player and can't play with the team. Compare on JC where he always get the ball and shoot it although can't blame him for doing that since maybe that is the set play by old coach and they totally at huge mess at that time.

Moving forward about the development of the PH nationals  they are really doing well with CTC, we are seeing good execution and with how they are moving to rotate with the defense if they continue to develop that I'm pretty sure that we will see more from them, and  with the current lineup most are composed of young and prime players,  they can continue working together for another 3-5 years just prevent having serious injuries,  they can make it to the Olympics and continue dominate the Asian cup. Looking forward for more success of PH national hopefully they continue to impress the fans here and abroad.

Short break for PBA as the new conference or season (not sure) will start tomorrow.

The first game at 4:30 PM features Bossing vs Blackwater, and the second game is between TNT vs Rain or Shine. I looked at my bookie to check the betting odds, but it seems they're not available yet.

By the way, have you read any rumors about Chris Newsome being on the trading block?
