- The PBA is considering banning Smart Gilas reinforcement CJ Giles for "missing games". I know games against Gilas count in the standings, and that those throwaway games they played sans CJ gives sister team TNT and Ginebra a slight advantage over the teams who might have to play a full-strength SG team. And yes, conspiracy theorists, it is possible they sat out Giles against TNT so that MVP's other team could gain a little foothold on top. But really, you guys can't give the benefit of the doubt to a guy who may be emotionally distraught after learning his kid might be in a life-threatening situation? If he sprained an ankle and missed two games, would the PBA be banning him in those circumstances as well? Doesn't make enough sense to me, but hey, I don't make the rules.

The PBA has decided to make all Smart-Gilas games no-bearing games. That sucks for Burger King and Wynne Arboleda. All that fuss for a no-bearing game. hehehe.
Now, Wynne Arboleda is learning that Karma's a Bitch!
I just don't think that Arboleda played hard (or dirty?) just to win the game. They just wanted to show the Gilas team how tough it is in the PBA. Were they out to harm them? I don't know. Maybe not. Maybe yes. 4 flagrant fouls is 4 flagrant fouls. So would Arboleda played softer had he knew the game was non-bearing? I don't think so. Would Katgibak stfu had he knew the game meant nothing? Definitely not.
love the jong uichico quote though.
"it is unfortunate that pba teams play the national team always looking to win."
take it from someone who's both been on AND coached the national team.
