Title: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on January 24, 2024, 01:03:43 PM
I think it is appropriate to make this thread as I know that there are a lot of users of this forum who are fans of the Philippine Basketball Association.

Though i think at first this maybe lull but i think in the long run this thread will become busy.


Game in the next few minutes:

SMB Beermen vs Ginebra Kings for the best of seven five semi-finals.

I have Ginebra here ML @2.26 as i think they have the edge because of the crowd but this is anybody's ballgame.

I used our local bookies, SportsPlus. The good thing about this bookies is that it only accepts fiat money as a bet and very convenient to use because you just need to log-in to your Gcash account and go find SportsPlus, very legit bookies. As of now, i don't use crypto-bookies as the transaction fees is too high.

Back to the topic, i lost my bet yesterday as the Beermen beat the Gin Kings by just two points. Good game, its just that the breaks of the game favors the Beermen. I expect the Gin Kings to adjust and bounce back next game.
Title: Re: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on January 25, 2024, 01:25:46 PM
The semis resume tomorrow and the Gin Kings is the slight favorite this early while Phoenix is still the underdog on their match-up against Magnolia. Game 2 is a game where the loser in game 1 had a high chance of winning as they will adjust on what went wrong on the first game so I'll be backing the game 1 losers for tomorrow's games.

Ginebra -2.5 @1.87 vs SMB Beermen
Phoenix +7.5 @1.84 vs Magnolia

Do or die for Phoenix and Ginebra in today's game. Of the two matches, i think Phoenix got a higher chance of being swept than Ginebra as both game 1 and game 2 were close games, it's just that the breaks of the game favored SMB Beermen. Limit the offensive output of Boatwright, might be the goal of the wards of coach Tim Cone tonight so again i will be betting for them.

Magnolia -4.5 @1.82 vs Phoenix
Ginebra -3.5 @1.88 vs SMB Beermen


edit:
What a game for Phoenix, after they were being down by as much as 21 points in the first half, they managed to came back and win the game by 18 points. Lost my bet there but no regrets as i thought Magnolia would finish them in their third encounter.

Lost my two bets last Sunday night, SMB swept Ginebra which was unexpected at least for me, they must have one game at least but SMB never allowed them to take one win.

For tomorrow's game, Phoenix has the momentum and i observed that the first two games where Magnolia won, they did not cover the spread so to be safe i'll be betting for Phoenix with that 6.5 handicap.

Phoenix 6.5 @1.94 vs Magnolia.

Hoping that Phoenix would win this series as to not see an all SMC teams playing in the finals.
Title: Re: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on February 01, 2024, 12:23:17 PM
So, everything is set, Magnolia did survive the gutsy Phoenix to earn a sit in the Finals against the SMB Beermen. Though this series is an all SMC team but i don't think that this will be rig as both teams were doing their very best to reach the Finals.

Though no odds have been released as of this writing but i think game 1 will be slightly even and i think SMB will be a slight favorite as they have the 7 time MVP back healthy.

Good luck guys on your choice, i'll be backing the Beermen on this series.

As expected, the Beermen blew away the Hotshots in the first game of the best-of-seven series. That second-quarter run by by the Beermen proved to be lethal for the Magnolia Hotshots, they scored 41 while Magnolia only managed to chip in 20 points in that turning point of the ball game.

Fatigue seems to be a factor in the opening game of the series as the wards of coach Victolero looks tired in the second half of the game while the Beermen looks fresh in the entire 48 minutes.

Surely, adjustments will be made in game 2 but i doubt it will bring down the Boatwright lead Beermen.

Congrats to those who bet for the Beermen on the opening game.

Post by: bisdak40 on February 04, 2024, 12:19:53 PM
End of the first half and the score is 54-41 with San Miguel Beermen leading by 13 points. The Beermen were hot on the rainbow country while it's the opposite for the Magnolia Hotshots, shooting only 2/12. The Hotshots are exposed here big time, if they continue to miss those 3s then likely it would be 2-0 after this game as they have a hard time also attacking the basket due to the size of the Beermen.

Nice, I haven't followed the PBA though for a long time so I will be a newbie here, hehehe.

I'll just tail you on some bets mate, I need to familiarized myself again with the teams and the sets of players, unfortunately for me.

But it good that you open up a thread here and who knows, I might be back in the local basketball scene.

I know that you will get acquainted fast on the PBA, just watch a couple of games and that's it, you will already knew whose the favorite and the underdog next game.

Unlike in the NBA where upsets happens very often, here in the PBA, we can almost predict the winner, its the spread that what we are betting for.

Good to see you commenting on this thread bai, hope this is not the last.
Title: Re: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on February 06, 2024, 11:54:14 AM
The turning point of the series which is game 3 will be held tomorrow, must win for the Magnolia Hotshots as another loss will put them in a 0-3 hole which is very difficult to overturn. Another problem for the Hotshots is that they might play without Calvin Abueva as he might face suspension for the spat he had with Mo Tautua after game 2.

No odds yet but i expect SMB Beermen will still be the favorite and i would still be backing for them as Magnolia Hotshots have no advantage in any department of the game, they are smaller yet can't the 3s  :).
Title: Re: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on February 08, 2024, 07:46:23 AM
And we had a series as Magnolia managed to snatched the victory in game 3 against the mighty Beermen. One contributing factor on why Magnolia was the inability of the Beermen to cash on their 3-point field goal as they only managed to sunk 7 out of 36 attempts, that's not the Beermen that we saw on games 1 and 2.

Mark Barroca's aggressive to drive to the basket paved the way for Magnolia's victory as the Zamboanga native chipped in 20 points in that ball game.

One thing was notable on that game 3 was the absence of Jericho Cruz as he was suspended by SMC for that tongue lashing incident that he had with Abueva in game 2. The question that lingers on my mind is that why suspend their own player when every game of the Finals is important and you could not afford to lose a single player in your rotation, something fishy is going on here.
Title: Re: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on February 10, 2024, 02:19:59 AM
The Series now tied at 2-2, becomes interesting as the Hotshot now gains momentum of the match.

The bad thing for the Beermen is that their reliable big man, Junemar Fajardo is injured and might not be available on game 5.

I will still be rooting for the Beermen here to win game 5 and ultimately the series, no odds yet but for sure the Beermen will be the slight underdog as the momentum has shifted to the side of Magnolia.

Title: Re: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on February 13, 2024, 09:27:55 AM
The series is now 3-2 in favor of the Beermen because of their hot shooting in the rainbow country. Jericho Cruz was clutch in that pivotal game 5 as he hit the nail of the coffin in the dying seconds of the ball game when their lead was trimmed down to only 3 points.

As observed, Cruz needs to duplicate his output in game 5 for them to win the series as Boatwright was contained by the defense of the Hotshots so shooters like Cruz and Lassiter need to step up their game, if not this will go to game 7.
Title: Re: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on February 14, 2024, 01:35:44 PM
End of the first of this exciting game 6 of the PBA Finals with Magnolia holding that 5-point lead with the score of 51-46. As I posted the other day if the Beermen would close out this series they need to duplicate the output of Jericho Cruz in the last game but tonight he has yet to score. Benie Boatwright is heavily defended in the first two quarters so they have to free him up by hitting the outside shots so that the Hotshots would be forced to not double him every time he got the ball.

I have my bet on Magnolia here and so far it looks good, just hoping that the intensity of Magnolia will continue in the second half.

Lost bet but it is what it is. I thought they were going to force a game 7 but SMB's defensive stops in the last quarter allowed them to turn it around. I think Magnolia made too many mistakes (Abueva in particular).

Yeah, that turnover by Magnolia in the dying minutes of the game really did the damage for them. I though that was money in the bag for Magnolia and we can see a game 7 but CJ Perez and Cruz's timely basket were lethal for Magnolia.

BTW, thanks for commenting on this thread @Zed0X.

Opening day once again for the PBA and we have two games for today and these are may bets.

Meralco Bolts -11.5 @1.80 vs Blackwater Bossings
TNT Tropang Giga -7.5 @1.85 vs ROS Elasto Painters


All-Filipino cup so i will go for the favorites for tonight as no import that could impact the game that makes it unpredictable.

Have not betting in the games of the PBA for the last two days as I'm on out-of-town, this means that I have not won a game yet in this conference.

NLEX Road Warriors -4.5 @1.89 vs Dyip
NorthPort Batang Pier -4.5 @1.84 vs Converge


Though most of the games have been won by the underdogs or the favorites failed to cover the spread but i'm still going for the favorites today and hoping they will win and cover the spread.

NorthPort Batang Pier -4.5 @1.84 vs Converge[/b]

Though most of the games have been won by the underdogs or the favorites failed to cover the spread but i'm still going for the favorites today and hoping they will win and cover the spread.
I tried to bet on this game just for fun. I put Converge to win the game, and at the same time, I also bet on them with a +5.5 spread.

At the end of the 3rd quarter, they had a double-digit lead coming into the 4th quarter, and I thought they will gonna win the game already so I didn't watch anymore. When I re-visit their website, I saw the game tied with a few seconds remaining. I was like "WTF!!!" when I saw it. I really thought that I was gonna win on it already.

Well, we know what happened after that. It went to overtime, and in the end, NorthPort won the game. I don't know what happened on that 4th quarter because I'm kind of bored already, but... I guess I'll just move on. :D Anyway, anybody here who can count the number of people watching games?  ;D ;D

I did not watch that game live but just monitor the score, if that game doesn't go to overtime, you might have won your one bet, the one with the spread. I also though that i will lost that game also but fortunately for me, the game went into overtime and NorthPort did covered the spread.

About the game/crowd attendance, i think that issue won't improve and most likely it will get worse. The only games that people might watch are the out-of-town games.

As usual we have two games for today:

Blackwater -3.5 @1.88 vs Converge - Will go for the Bossings for tonight's game as they are inspired with their recent wins and their moral is high, Troy Rosario and James Yap showed the youth on how it is done to win games.

NLEX +6.5 @1.89 vs Meralco - will go for the underdog in this game.

1 win - 3 losses, not good so far but i hope this will improve in the coming days.

Last night's result:

1st game:
Blackwater - 90
Converge - 78

2nd game:
NLEX - 99
Meralco - 96

Have won my two bets last night fortunately hehe. One thing i observe with the Converge team, i think they are tanking, preparing the upcoming PBA draft as rumors has it that Justin Baltazar will join the draft and Converge is targeting him to be their pick if ever they get the number 1 pick lottery.

Like what i have said before, Converge looks like they are tanking for the incoming PBA draft so the possibility of yet another loss is inevitable.

Games for today:

1st game:
NLEX -2.5 @2.02 vs Blackwater - The Bossings will probably play hard today to extend their winning streak but Robert Bolick of NLEX might spoil their run.

2nd game:
Phoenix -3.5 @1.87 vs DYIP - Will go for Phoenix in this game, risky but i think the Fuelmaster could beat Dyip.

4Wins - 4Loses - my standings so far.

NorthPort ML @ 2.40 vs Magnolia - NorthPort is a team to beat right now in the PBA while Magnolia is having some problems, i think Batang Pier will hand another lose to Magnolia this evening.

SMB -4.5 @1.83 vs Magnolia - The Beermen is unbeaten and against Magnolia, i think that streak will not be broken.

My bets:
Magnolia -5.5 @1.85 vs Meralco - I think the Hotshots will bounce back strong after their defeat on the hands of the Beermen.
SMB -9.5 @1.85 vs NLEX - still riding the hot Beermen, i think that spread is coverable.

The first game was a record breaker in terms of lowest scoring if i'm not mistaken, have not seen the game live so i can't elaborate more on what really transpired on that game and lost my bet on that game but fortunately for me i did win on my bet on the SMB vs NLEX game. Junemar Fajardo was unstoppable on that game, scoring 20 points while grabbing 21 rebounds.

Blackwater +10.5 @1.85 vs SMB - The Beermen are already assured of that twice-to-beat advantage so chances are that they will relax on this game.
Converge +14.5 @1.85 vs TNT - The spread is just too high so betting for the underdog is the way to go here.

For sure coach Gallent will make some adjustments tonight but i think this will be a close game just like game 1 and if ever the Beermen will win game 2, they won't cover the spread of 8.5.

This Finals is getting exciting and fans are trooping to the arena to witness this event live, good job PBA.

The Beermen won the pivotal game 4 last night with newly crowned BPC Junemar Fajardo leading the charge for the Beermen. It was a close ball game until the last 4 minutes of the game until Cliff Hodge and Bates fouled out in the game. Fajardo produced 28 points along with 13 rebounds while Lassiter chipped in with 18 markers.

Tie-breaker, tonight's theme of the game 5.

My bet:

SMB -4.5 @1.90 vs Meralco - Coach Jorge Gallent has already found a way on how to maximize Junemar Fajardo and be a factor on winning this series though the "Kraken" may be a little tired but with what's at stake in this ball game i think he will just ward this tiredness off. Hoping my winning streak will continue though.

Maliksi was clutch and led the Bolts and the lead in the series and got the chance to win it all on Sunday's game 6. Fajardo's 38 points and 18 rebounds was put to a waste in a losing effort, he needs more help from his teammates if they want to even the series.

My bet:
SMB -4.5 @1.91 vs Meralco

As what I've said, if Meralco wins tonight then they will be the crown champion and the first of their franchise history to win an All-Filipino Cup. I have backed the Beermen for tonight as they will do their best to extend the series and hoping that Fajardo will still have a good night of basketball and will get some help from CJ Perez and Lassiter.

Good luck to all of us.

Bumping due to the latest addition to the rules exclusive to PBA. I'm pretty sure you already heard/read about the approval of the 4-point line that will be implemented next season. This change could help improve our shooters but could be detrimental too. Whatever the case, coaches will have to make adjustments.

Many players (legend and active), and coaches are against it, but I guess they've already added it.
I guess it's good that the PBA will add some new things to the league. This is kind of an experimental one, and if they see it as a failure then it's easy for them to just remove it.

TBH, I don't like the addition of the 4-point play, but it is what it is. Like I said, this would be an experiment. Coaches will have to make an adjustments, and I guess other teams will come up with their own shooters that can shoot on the 4-point area. Players like Paul Lee and those three-point shooters are the ones that will benefit the most from this additional rule. This rule has pros and cons, and although the cons are weighing out the pros of it, we don't know what changes can happen with the addition of this one. Let's just hope that this new rule will not ruin the "already ruined" league.

Chris Banchero makes the first and historic 4-point play in the PBA in the second quarter of their game against Magnolia last night. That would be etched in the history books as of now.  8)

Dyip -5.5 @1.85 vs Converge - With the addition of Christian Standhardinger and Stanly Pringle, Dyip is a little stronger this conference.
SMB -6.5 @1.93 vs Phoenix - SMB is still the favorite to win the title in this conference so i'm not going to bet against them.

1st game:
TNT vs Converge

2nd game:
SMB Beermen vs Ginebra

My bets:
Converge +9.5 @1.85 vs TNT - will go for the underdog on this game because Converge's import is an explosive player that might cause problem for the TNT side.
SMB -3.5 @1.89 vs Ginebra - will go for SMB as the spread is low while Ginebra is still having problems with chemistry with its new players.

Very hard to predict on which have the high percentage to win as the games are so unpredictable but i will continue to bet base on my own analysis.

My bets for today:

Blackwater ML @2.06 vs Phoenix - fresh from their upset win against Ginebra, i think they will still get the W this time against Phoenix.
Ginebra -4.5 @1.82 vs NLEX - must win for Ginebra so betting for them is the way to go.

Ginebra -106
TNT - 92

Ginebra evened the series thanks to Justin Brownlee’s heroics and Coach Tim Cone’s brilliant coaching. The Kings shot a decent percentage from beyond the arc, which helped them keep the Katropa at bay.

Game for Tonight:

Finals game 5 between Ginebra and TNT Katropa.

My bet: Ginebra ML @1.88 - The Kings have already found the formula on how to beat the Katropa. If the Kings would beat the Katropa tonight, this will be the third straight games that Ginebra beat TNT, hard but possible.

Result from last night's games:

TNT - 99
Ginebra - 72

TNT Katropa avoided a 3 games consecutive losses by defeating the Ginebra Kings. By the looks of it, seems like the Gin Kings were already tired and fatigue finally catch up on them.

31Wins - 24Losses, standing.

Game 6 will be played tonight and with a massive crowd supporting the Gin Kings, i hope they play as there is no tomorrow and extend this series to game 7. TNT on the other hand will try to finish off the Kings tonight because they knew that if this will go to a game 7, the momentum will not be on their side.

My bet: Ginebra -2.5 @1.92.

Result from last Friday night's games:

TNT - 95
Ginebra - 85

TNT Katropa is the back-to-back Governor's Cup champion. Ginebra can't hold on to their lead in the second half as RHJ sizzles his way to victory. Jason Castro was named the Final's MVP as he lead the locals to this sweet championship.

31Wins - 25Losses, standing.

Gilas Update:

Gilas beat the Tall Blacks with a score of 93-89 last night with Justin Brownlee leading the charge but got heavy support from the local boys especially Kai Sotto who scored 19 points and grabbed 11 rebounds, best showing thus far for the 7 foot 2 center. It was also a history for the Gilas team as it was the first time for them to beat New Zealand in FIBA sanctioned games.

Trade Alert:

The SMB management has traded Vic Manuel and Terrence Romeo to Terrafirma in exchange for Andreas Cahilig and Juami Tiongson. IMO, this move by the management of SMB is good for the career of both Romeo and Manuel since they don't get much quality minutes in the SMB roster at least in Terrafirma they could be in the starting five.

They've being doing this for a long time already and it already came to a point where trades like this are pretty much normal in the PBA anymore. This is the reason why I don't watch PBA games that often unlike when it was a few years ago. No offense to PBA, but the competition is just, meh.

As for this trade, you said it already that Tiongson and Cahilig will get little minutes especially Tiongson. SMB has a lot of guards as of the moment, and even Trollano that's dominant when he's on NLEX barely gets minutes in SMB. I really hate to see lopsided trades like this but, it is what it is. For sure, MVP teams will do everything to make a trade like this in the future.

It's like taking the juice off these players and when they are already dried, they give off them to the farm teams hehe. Tiongson might have a future with SMB since Chris Ross is already old and might retiring in a couple of years, Tiongson might the the replacement point general of SMB Beermen.

We have games for today but as of this time only one game is covered by the bookies.

My bet: Terrafirma ML @3.75 vs Converge - interesting odds as we know that two players has been added to the Dyip roster plus the import, might be a good game for Terrafirma.

Unfortunately my bet losses as Terrence Romeo and Vic Manuel were not playing on yesterdays day as per report they are nursing injuries. But even if the two cagers were present in yesterdays game, i think the result will still be the same.

Ginebra - 6.5 @1.90 - Ginebra is a well rested team and they also have a new weapon on Troy Rosario.

Lone game for tonight:

Magnolia vs NLEX

My bets for today:
NLEX +8.5 @1.75 - Though Magnolia had the advantage in terms of local support but i do think that this will be a close game as the loser will be eliminated which i think NLEX will bring their all in this game.

The cast for this year's quarter finals is complete and what is shocking for PBA fans is the failure of the SMB Beermen to make this conference's quarterfinals. Their 22 playoffs appearance has been broken.

QF games will start tomorrow.

The PBA will take a short break because there will be a pocket tournament where some of the players that will play in the semis will also take part on that tourney. PBA resumption will be on February 26.

Below is the match-up for this conference's semi-finals.

Gilas will be playing today against Taiwan. I think this will be an easy work for the Gilas Team and i think they will blow-out this Chinese Taipei team tonight and cover the -11.5 spread as listed in the bookies.

Gilas -11.5 @1.87 vs Taiwan

Taiwan had made a history by beating the Gilas team, their first since 2013. Don't know what happened to Gilas but it seems they misses the services of Kai Sotto.

With Jayson Castro out for the rest of the season due to injury, the series between ROS and TNT is now more interesting. ROS take game3 but we can expect the TNT to make some adjustments in the next game.

The Finals is set and it would be between the TNT Katropa and the Barangay Ginebra. This matchup of the Finals is very exciting as we don't know who will win, 50-50 as we say.

First game would be on Friday, March 14.
Title: Re: PBA Betting and Discussion Thread
Post by: bisdak40 on March 14, 2025, 06:42:12 AM
Today will be the game 1 of the best of seven Finals between the Ginebra Kings and TNT Katropa. As i've mentioned on my post in the other forum, the absence of Jayson Castro will be the biggest factor of this series. I think Ginebra will avenge their loss on the Katropa last Commissioner's Cup. I'm betting for Ginebra to win game 1 and cover the slim spread.

Result from Fiday night:

Ginebra - 89

Result from Sunday night's game:
Ginebra - 71
TNT - 70

The series is now ties at 1-apiece. Ginebra have a good run in the first three quarters of the game last night but TNT managed to crawled back and got the lead in the dying minutes of the game but fortunately Brownlee answered back with a 4 points on his own which was enough to get them the W.

Game 3 of the Finals tonight at 7:30 PM Philippine time.

I'm still backing Ginebra to win this game and cover the spread. Hope that the 3-point shots of the TNT Katropa won't go in like in game 2. Also hoping that RJ Abarrientos will show and be productive on the offensive end.

Result from last night's game:

TNT won a close battle with a score of 87-85 with Brownlee getting injured in the third quarter of the game. He needed to be taken to the hospital because of dislocated thumb. There is a big chance that he won't be suiting up for the rest of the Finals because of that injury.

With Justine Brownlee's status to play still uncertain, I'm not going to bet on who will win tonight. Instead, I'll focus on the total score. Given how close each game has been, I think the total score will still be under 180.

Result from last night's game, Barangay Ginebra now leads the series 3-2 and they could take the crown on Wednesday.

Seems that things are not going the TNT's way as of the moment as they are now disintegrating with coach Chot Reyes and Poy Erram involved in a shouting match which resulted in the loss of momentum in the second half of the game yesterday.

Post by: bisdak40 on March 26, 2025, 06:28:21 AM
I'm having a hard time on who to bet tonight but i have to trust my instinct that no more game 7 will happen. Besides, TNT is now in chaos following that shouting match between coach Chot Reyes and Erram, Oftana. Yes, Oftana also involved in a verbal tussle with coach Chot and there's no post on social media that they are now okay so i assume that they are still not okay thus affecting their game tonight :).

TNT forced a sudden death game seven this Friday with a win last night with the heroics of Rondae Hollis-Jefferson plus he got good local support from the likes of Ray Nambatac who contibuted 23 big points.

Finals game 7 tonight.

Betting for Ginebra -2.5 @1.99, very coverable spread if they will win game 7. Never say die spirit will prevail and the crowd will be a factor when it comes to game 7 and for a little bit of trivia, Ginebra is 3-1 when it comes on game 7 so statistic-wise they had a high chance to win tonight.

^^ game result.

TNT is this year's Commissioner's Cup champion in the PBA. A thrilling game that you can't predict who will win until the final buzzer sounds but in the end it was the Katropa who had the breaks of the game, making 3's when it counts the most.

Congrats to all who bet for the Katropa.

The PBA All-Filipino-Cup will kick off tomorrow with a double headed at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.

No betting odds yet for these games as it is more than 24 hours before tip-off. Will post my bet here tomorrow.

Converge ML @2.56 - I just feel that Converge can compete with any teams in the PBA without an import because their roster at the moment are filled with talented players.
