ALLAN THE MAN

PBA Philippine Cup (Dec. 22, 2014) Semifinal Game 3. Alaska Aces def. Rain or Shine, 94-78. Coach Yeng Guiao shouts in the referee's face (VIDEO). Guiao was called for his first technical foul of the game

Rain or Shine coach Yeng Guiao incurred a hefty fine yet again, this time due to his confrontation with Meralco player Cliff Hodge during a game last Wednesday.
The Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) slapped the Elasto Painters tactician with a P100,000 fine for calling Hodge a “mongoloid” after the player’s attack on Rain or Shine’s Raymond Almazan.

The PBA on Wednesday handed out a one-game suspension and a fine of P100,000 to Rain or Shine coach Yeng Guiao for his actions toward league officials during the Elasto Painters’ PLDT Home DSL Philippine Cup semifinals series against the Petron Blaze Boosters.

Guiao met with PBA commissioner Chito Salud on Wednesday morning “regarding his use of a dirty finger pointed toward the commissioner’s and tech committee table.”

The fiery coach was ejected in both Game Three and Game Four of the series, each time complaining about the officiating. He continued to blast the referees after the Elasto Painters’ win over the Boosters last Monday to take a 3-1 lead.

“We felt we were robbed of a win.” This was the bold statement of Rain or Shine coach Yeng Guiao following his team’s controversial 101-100 loss to Barangay Ginebra San Miguel on Saturday night at the SMART-Araneta Coliseum.

“We’ll file a protest for whatever is worth,” said Guiao. “We will file a protest before 12 noon tomorrow (Sunday).”
