It is time to give our prediction for the playoffs of the 2024-2025 PBA Commissioner's Cup. Fans are excited about the bracket because they assessed it as balance.
Will it deliver entertaining games?
For this edition, we will talk about TNT versus Hongkong and Rain or Shine versus Converge. Two different match-ups.
TNT versus Hongkong Eastern
Hongkong gave a beating to TNT in their game in the elimination round. It was a 21-point victory for the guest team. TNT is playing way better now though than during that game. While Hongkong is still facing a lot of scheduling issues.
In terms of talent, I think Hongkong and TNT are on equal grounds. But, TNT should have clear advantage in terms of experience in the playoffs.
I think TNT has more paths to victory here specially with their twice-to-beat advantage. I will not be shocked if Hongkong can survived and upset TNT but the better choice to win this series is TNT.
Rain or Shine versus Converge
It is kind of sad that two independent teams will face each other in the quarterfinals. Although, it should comfort us that one independent team is assured of a spot in the semifinals.
In the elimination round, their game was close but Converge managed to survive. Baltazar was not yet playing well during that game. Now that he is playing well, Rain or Shine will have a bigger problem.
I also think that the import of Converge is more reliable than that of Rain or Shine. On the other hand, Rain or Shine will have the advantage in terms of experience.
I have a hard time deciding but my choice will be Rain or Shine heavily due to their advantage in terms of experience.
