Converge has been aggressive in the trade table. They have been acquiring the college players of coach Aldin Ayo. If Converge can do that. I am pretty sure that they will soon start to try and get the Pampanga boys of governor Delta Pineda.
One of the legends of Pampanga basketball is no other than Calvin Abueva. And I really think that Converge will have the desire to acquire him and let him retire under governor Delta.
So, what are the offers that Converge should consider for Calvin Abueva?
Perfect Trade: Jeo Ambohot and Jerrick Balanza for Calvin Abueva
I know that Ambohot is really struggling in his first season in the PBA. Filipinos are quick to anoint him as a bust. But the guy is still young and he is not really getting enough opportunity in Converge. There is a good chance that his potential is being suppressed.
If Converge can sell that to Magnolia, they could be getting a fair deal. They will get a piece in Abueva that will help them in the future. While giving up a potential top 20 player in the PBA. Balanza is there to balance the value of the trade.
Bad Trade: Jeron Teng or Abu Tratter for Calvin Abueva
Converge will loss in terms of trade value if they will give up Teng or Tratter just to get Abueva. The biggest difference is in age. Teng and Abu are only 28 and 30 years old, respectively.
Those age differences are huge and I do not think that the difference in terms of current production is enough to take it.
