Burger King Gives Up Gary David

Gary David is once again reunited with his former team as he was traded by the Burger King Whoopers, together with Chico Lanete, to the Coca Cola Tigers in exchange for Alex Cabagnot and Wesley Gonzales. It is a big loss for the BK Whoopers as it unfolds its ties with Gary David. The Burger King management has no plans of trading Gary David but with the loss of its main pointguard in the person of Wynne Arboleda due to suspension. The Whoopers, looking for an opportunity to find a real point guard settled down on Coca Cola Tigers ace point guard Alex Cabagnot. This is the first trade for the year 2010 in the PBA.

San Sebastian takes Game 1

The San Sebstian Golden Stags won over the defending champs San Beda Red Lions in an overtime double overtime thriller in Game 1 of the NCAA finals.. 72-68.. Putting away the repeated comebacks off the Red Lions.. the Stags found an antidote for every San Beda comeback, leaning on their rebounding power and key free throws made down the stretch. With the Red Lions trailing for the most part of the game and by 12 in t he first quarter,and 6 points in the final 2-minutes in the regulation, chipped in 6 straight points to tie the game 53 apiece and force overtime in an Rome De La Rosa jumper. In the first overtime the Bedans take the lead for good on Gamalinda' three pointer. From then on, the two teams exchange lead. In the dying seconds of the first overtime, the ball was in the hands of Borgie Hermida and made an spectacular shot with 6 seconds remaining in the game that tied the count once again and force a second overtime.The fad is the same as that of the first overtime, with the team exchanging leads, but the Stags salvage a 2point lead. With 24 seconds into the 2nd overtime, the ball was in the hands of Gargo Lanete and passed it off to the open Terona in the corner..only to miss the three pointer. Abueva rebounded the miss and was fouled..he cooly sinks the 2 free throws.. for a well deserved and comfortable 4-point lead..

Jimbo Aquino lead the way for the Stags once again but it is Calvin Abueva that is intrumental for the Stags, hauling down 23 rebounds, to go wiht his 11 points and thus, converting the all important free throws in the dying seconds of the 2nd overtime.
