Arwind Santos focuses on Championship and not on MVP race
HIS closest pursuers for the season MVP award are falling by the wayside one by one, but Petron star forward Arwind Santos would rather not dwell on winning the coveted individual trophy and instead focus on guiding the Boosters to a championship in the PBA Governors Cup.
Bagging the MVP award would be a blessing, Santos acknowledged, although at the moment his attention is on Petron’s semifinal series against defending champion Rain or Shine that starts on Monday.

Mark Caguioa, Paul Lee, Vernon Macklin in Gilas Pilipinas ?
The success of Gilas Pilipinas also opened the door for me to imagine other versions of the team with a clear conscience during my next flight, the 14-hour jaunt from Seoul to New York.
That’s because we know what the “right” version of the national team was — it was the group that qualified for a FIBA World Cup for the first time since 1978 and had the nation crying tears of joy. So instead, I could entertain myself by imagining strange, themed versions of the Philippine team. Hey, it was either that or watch Sylvester Stallone’s “Bullet to the Head” seven consecutive times.

San Miguel Corporation re-evalutes participation in the PBA after Balkman's Lifetime Ban
San Miguel Corporation (SMC) is re-evaluating its participation in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) in the wake of the "choking incident" involving Petron Blaze import Renaldo Balkman.
According to a report on Spin.ph, SMC accepted the lifetime ban imposed on Balkman after his meltdown against the Alaska Aces last Friday that ended with him choking teammate Arwind Santos.
But the company also said it believes "the incident has been blown out of proportion, and has damaged our good name."
