IT was all good while it last... and para nako.. we should move on to other things nalang instead of pondering what has gone past na...
actually bai, hapit bya to manirado ang PBA tungod sa MBA, nag adjust cla sa ilang rules and policies para lang masurvive,
and anyway ang MBA kay naka sustain ug pila ka tuig, which means feasible cya, its during the time na nihawa na ang ABS-CBN as major sponsor sa league mao to na lugi na, kay wla namay exposure ang mga games sa national TV.
Kung milyonaryo ko, this is my suggestion to the PBA administration.
1. convert PBA to regionalize or inter-city event with one PBA team adopting a home city. therefore, the owner of that NBA team will be the one to manage and handle the city.
advantage: one brand can dominize a single city or region, example if TNT adopts Cebu, then the TNT brand will be all over Cebu!
disadvantage: the travel and its cost ofcourse.
example: Manila Bolts (from Meralco Bolts)
Hows this possible: mahhhn, look at the PBA season now, they are doing its regular games in provinces, sa davao, sa mactan sa bacolod, that means that travel is feasible! the fact alone that MBA survive for almost 6 years.
2. The Philippines is way behind the Asian nation when it comes to basketball achievement and even in FIBA ranking. other non-basketball dominance country like Japan or Korea is even higher than us.
therefore, it needs a Law to promote this sport, how you say?
how about a certain province or a metro city adopts or co-adopts a basketball team? thus forming the teams for a regionalize PBA league?
by c0-adopting the city or provincial government will share the cost with a private owner. some teams in NBA has this model.
