[Limahong]

Message from the organizer, Mr. Ralph De Castro for everybody's info (... thanks mosong):


Hi All,
 
Fisher of Men Nets (5-0) & Macrotech Kings (4-1) are semifinalist on this Winter NBA tournament 2007. On their games this coming Saturday 24/03, if they win or lose they still will play on the semifinals.
 
Tsuen Wan Wizards (3-2) must win their game against the FOM NETS this coming Saturday 24/03 to be a semifinalist, if they lose then a tie between CFC3 Pistons (3-3).
 
IF Tsing Yi Spurs (2-3) would win this coming Saturday 24/03 against Macrotech Kings then a triple tie between Wizards, Pistons and Spurs. Teams must play the game in order to break the tie.
 
Both CFC1 Jazz (0-5) and CFC2 Lakers (1-4) are eliminated on this 1st round and will play on the 2nd round.
 
 
Thanks,
RDC

Let me re-post here my previous reply to tonychel. Current leaders deserve separate forum for further discussions.

Master Limahong, ano sa palagay mo magiging standing ng teams after round 1?
Ano anong mga possibilties? Me chance pa ba CFC Jazz?   

Obviously FOM is the strongest team in the league despite of the fact that some of its original players were not allowed to join this league. Though the match between the Nets and the Macrotech was a no-bearing game, you can still feel the intensity of the game. Both teams wanted to have a clean slate before the next round and the Nets have shown their true character with or without their best players.

It was a double header last Saturday. The game between Pistons and Wizards was another fun to watch. Wizards were leading the first two quarters but when the Pistons stepped on a high gear, they left Wizards in disarray when their longtoms started to fall in. It's a deadlock in the third. Scores were so low in the 3 quarters due to the awesome defense displayed by these two teams. An interesting match up between the Nets and the Wizards is looming. Wizards should play its best to avoid complication with Spurs and Pistons.

My prediction? Macrotech and FOM deserve to enter semifinals. But still tosscoins between Wizards, Spurs and Pistons. These are the teams that have equal in power barring any untoward absences from their key players. Pistons have a slight edge since its a complete team.

Both Jazz and Lakers should not give up their hopes. What they need is to complete their line up in the second round. They can still pull big surprises in the next round.

Championship ... hehehe ... sikatz ano sa palagay mo?       But hey, since Lakers and Jazz didn't qualify for automatic semifinal slots, your Dream Finals will never happen.    Both of them still have chance to enter the semifinal stage but only one will advance.

The looming championship race should be exciting.

Granting FOM Nets and Kings square off for the crown, it will be battle of which team has a no-drain will as we know both teams are capable of doing damage
to the other.

However, in my very limited stats, it seems that the Kings has a slight advantage (given only the scorecards we have at hand).
Kaya nga I asked for more detailed stats from the beginning eh. hehehe ... anyway, here it goes ...

The NETS have an average winning margin of 6pts against powerhouse teams (namely; Kings, Spurs, and ok let's include Pistons)
While the KINGS have a winning margin of any of these PH teams of 15pts (Wizards, and Pistons if I may).

And the NETS rely heavily on number 23. You can check the individual scorecards. (and in fact, they had a close one against the Pistons where 23 fouled out
early on and thanks to their early cushion, they held on to win by 3 points)

While the KINGS, they can throw in a balanced attack on any given night. But then again - it will take their D on 23 to get there.
Which they didn't last time they met.

So we are at a crossroad between Individual Talent and Team Game. Who'll win it? Well you're guess will be as good as mine.

Pero sa totoo lang ...
Wag kayong maniwala sa lahat ng sinasabi ko ... hehehe.

Para sa iyo hongkee:

Actually tama si TIGASTOY, ang Winter Basketball League ay para sa mga matatanda, mababagal (mga balik-laro players), mga kabataan na nahihilig sa palakasan at sa mga pinoy na basketbolistang hindi nararapat para sa kategoriyang class A o yung tinatawag nating 'pang-malakasan' sa larangan nang basketbol. Ito yung mga players na hindi naipapasok o mga hindi nakakapuntos sa mga nagdaang liga sa Wanchai o sa mga palarong idinaos nang Noypi Barkadahan kamakailan. Layunin nang ligang ito na bigyan nang pagkakataon ang mga nasabing manlalaro na manatiling aktibo hindi lamang pampisikal kundi pati na rin sa pakikisalamuha sa tao. Kaya yung mga nababangko sa mga liga, ito na ang chance nila na makapaglaro muli nang mahaba-habang oras. Kaya sa binanggit na deskripsyon na mga manlalaro ni TIGASTOY, sila ang mga nararapat para sa liga na ito.

Protesta sa mga players: Dahil nga sa patakarang napagkasunduan sa itaas, ang bawat koponan ay binigyan nang pagkakataon upang ma-screen ang mga players na isinumite nang bawat teams. Kapag ang isang player ay inaakalang nabibilang sa class A, ito ay pag-uusapan nang bawat lider nang mga koponan at nang organizers para desisyunan kung pahihintulutang sumali o hindi. Kaya sa team nang FOM NETS, ilang players nila ang hindi naisali sa liga na ito. Ganun din sa mga players nang Macrotech, Spurs, Wizards at Jazz. Kung mayroon man na di nakalusot sa patakarang ito, iyon ay di maiiwasan. Maaaring sa kadahilanang ang nasabing player ay bago at hindi pa kilala bilang manlalaro sa Hong Kong.

Pero hindi dapat malungkot ang mga di nakalahok sa liga na ito dahil malapit na rin ang Pinoy Barkadahan Summer Basketball League na kung saan ang players ay 'open for all categories'. Ito po ay sa buwan ng Hunyo. Mayroon na ring 12 teams na nagpahayag na kani-kanilang interest para sa paglahok sa ligang ito. Dito na talaga masusubukan kung yung mga 'budding stars' o yung mga comebacking stars nang Winter League ay pwede nang sumabak sa pang-malakasan.

Palagay ko dito, kailangan natin nang marami-raming TIGASTOY sa Summer League para ito maging ganap na tagumpay.
