Bold prediction for the upcoming 38^th season of PBA (For the Top 4 Teams)

Petron – Tough team to beat

impressive line up is not enough

This team is fully loaded of great players in every position. Fajardo, Pena, Idelfonso manning the middle, Jwash, Arwind Santos, Lassiter, Lutz on the wings, Miranda, Cabagnot, Yeo, Hontiveros, Mallari for 1 and 2 positions. How can you beat this team when each player can explode anytime and burn the hoop? Yes, they are tough and full of talent, but that does not mean that they are unbeatable. Why? Ego and chemistry factors will be crucial for this team, in order to go all the way in the Finals.

Prediction: Semifinalist but will fall short

San Miguel Coffee Makers – Always a contender

TOUGH team but not invincible

Great coach in Tim Cone, great players Yap, Simon, Pingris, Barroca, Villanueva, Reavis, Devance, Intal will always make this team a contender no matter how many changes it made to their name. Cone is known for his great coaching ability and making the right adjustments, while his player always gives their best on the hard court.

This team is hard to beat especially if the shooting of Yap, Simon, Uzbiztondo will click. They also have big men who can score inside like De Ocampo, Reavis and the pinoy Sakuragi, Pingris. However, beating them is not out of equation since this team is poor on defending the 3 point area. Yes, while Bmeg last season is the number 1 defensive team, they also rank lowest in defending the rainbow territory. So, in order to make the fans of this team cry their hearts out in social network sites, opponents must explode in 3 point area.

Prediction: Semis/ Final’s Berth

No longer dominant

Talk N Text – Contender but no longer dominant

This could be true since there is some doubt that Norman Black can immediately make an impact as a PBA coach in his first season. Although the Talk N text players are all championship caliber such as Alapag, Castro, Peek, Williams, De Ocampo, Fonacier, Carey and others, the new system that will be implemented in them will also be their weakness.

Prediction: Semis but will fall short

Barangay Ginebra San Miguel -- Time to get back on top

This team will always remain a top contender as long as there is MC47 playing at the top level. With their newest addition who are both Fil-Am and high flying rookies Jensen and Ellis, expect the run and gun system of the Gin kings in full display. This season could also be the breakout of players like Maliksi, Ababou and Majeihofer (Hopefully with fingers crossed). Cortez will be consistent while JJ13 will flash his old form that makes him a onetime MVP. There is also the hard working Hatfield who even in his prime age is still playing at the top level. Before I forget, this team still has Kerby Raymundo who will dominate his position this All Filipino Cup.

Just what I said, this team is always a top team, especially with their new fond in defense. This team does not have the ceiling but somehow, they manage to get the job done in stopping their opponents to score.

The only problem in this team is the coaching staff. Most will surely agree that Siot fails to utilize the skills of his players. The rotation of players baffles the millions of fans of the Ginkings, which most of the times also causes the downfall of their beloved team.

Is it time for the Kings to reign once again?

Prediction: Semis and will have a crack for championship

There you are, my bold prediction for the top 4 team this coming 38^th PBA season. Remember, this is my own opinion and I welcome those who will question my analysis and why did I exclude their teams in my blog. Whether you agree or disagree with me, what I have said will remain that way.
