For the longest time, the PBA fans are already aware of the role of the Northport Batang Pier in the PBA. Even though, the franchise still carry some of the myth of the Coca Cola Tigers and Powerade Cindirella run.
Northport is currently 4-0. They are currently at the top of the standings and I am pretty sure nobody expected that to be the case at this point.
With a defense that is impenetrable and by having the deadliest shooter in the league in Arvin Tolentino, Northport is looking like a legit problem for the playoffs.
This is also the reason why fans of San Miguel and Magnolia are salivating about the possibility of their favorite team making a trade for one of the stars of Northport.
Both SMB and Magnolia are currently handling a record of a single win and multiple losses. Of course, we still expect both teams to reach the playoffs.
The big question mark now is, will Northport answer the phone if the management of SMC calls them for help?
I hope they will not. I hope they will continue to stand with their pride when they felt bad about the tirade of Danny Ildefonso.
But, in reality, there is still a bigger chance that they surprised us with an Arvin Tolentino trade even though they are at the top of the standings.
Let us hope that they will not do it.
