Yesterday night, there is a heated discussions if the Raffy Reavis tapping of ball in the last 15 seconds of their game is legal or not. But at the end of that night, still Commissioner Chito Salud decided that the San Mig Coffee Mixers is still victorious in that game. Another but is, how legal his position regarding this?
Based on his statement, according to the FIBA rules "A player cannot touch the basketball while it is inside the imaginary cylinder above the basket, a player can now touch or swat the basketball after it touches the ring". But another question is this, is all the 10 member teams of that league are aware of this type of ruling.
Plain and simple, that game is robbed. This is the indication how they favor the team they want too more. Because of money and fame- and so many others. The opponent of Barako is a rich team owned by a great businessman.
To the top PBA officials, please clarify this kind of ruling. I think this is the proper time to proclaim all the existing rules of the league so that there is no confusions regarding this.
For the Barako Brigade fans, I am in your side because this type of 'melodrama' cannot be tolerated.
