PBA Controversy: TNT superstar or Adamson legend, who is right?



 I am pretty sure that a lot of you are already aware with the current situation of Mikey Williams and the management of TNT.

Have you read about Jerom Lastimosa of the Adamson University?

Adamson University's standout player Jerom Lastimosa received the news of a full ACL tear, prompting the need for surgery and subsequent rehabilitation. Adamson's representative to the UAAP Board of Managing Directors, Fr. Aldrin Suan, CM, confirmed the diagnosis, stating, "I received the medical record last night confirming Jerom has a full ACL tear."

Lastimosa's return to the court during UAAP Season 86 was cut short when he sustained the injury during a match against the University of the Philippines, limiting his playtime to just around eight minutes. Despite the setback, Lastimosa remained optimistic about the recovery process, asserting, "There's no pressure since I think this is normal for athletes to suffer this injury, sad to say it's ACL. So just move on, focus on the next step on how to return to basketball."

Suan disclosed that they were aware of Lastimosa's partial tear in May but ensured that he received medical clearance before playing against UP. He further emphasized Lastimosa's commitment to the team, highlighting the player's decision to prioritize his education over professional offers. "Take note, I just want to stress that when Jerom opted to play for Adamson, he put aside the offer. The primary purpose is for him to finish his studies. That's the main reason why he put aside the offers."

Lastimosa is set to graduate in February with a degree in sports management, and his jersey number was retired by Adamson before the commencement of UAAP Season 86.

Now, these two are basically on the extreme of the two spectrums. If we look at it without prior bias, do you think Mikey Williams should be hated?
