The Injury-Plagued Rockets next move after its relegation, REBUILD.

After a very disappointing 6-16 record in season 14, the Rockets' manager bluness decided to do one thing, REBUILD.
The Rockets started with a 0-5 record when the team's former key player Ritchie Ikotun was injured for 3 weeks during the season 14's Finals Game. Ikotun only played 6 games for the Rockets averages 18.2ppg,5rpg,4.5apg and 1.2spg.

Ikotun's numbers are not that impressive with his stat range, so the manager decided to sell him and buy 1 center, 1 guard and 1 prospect. After being sold by 4.5m, he was replaced by Enzo Ruperti, a promising guard in the future, Kuldar Pärn, a sniper from outside and Izak Kunteper, the Inside stopper.

After that transfer, the Rockets climbed up to the 6th spot but another crucial injury happened during the team's 18th game. Ikotun's former bestfriend, Sylvain Lécureuil, was injured for a week. "It was so frustrating that our main scorer was injured during the last 4 games, we were trying to avoid automatic relegation but still, our superstar was injured. I guess this is the teams destiny.", manager bluness said.

"Right now, the manager and staffs are trying to rebuild. Even if it means losing me too, i don't have a choice. I love this team, and i hope the manager would change his mind on selling me.", Sylvain Lécureuil said.

The Rockets are shopping some of their players now and another batch of players will be put on transfer list soon.

Bombers reach League IV.44 Finals for second straight season

Bombers beat Hunkz 93-69 on new year's day and earn another chance to promote to a higher division. Led by Peter Michael Carcellar, the Bombers's inside offense clearly took advantage of the 1-3-1 zone set against them. Antonio Saura fought valiantly to keep Hunkz within striking distance hitting shot after shot against any defender placed on him but got little help as his teammates shot 27% for a total of 37 points.

Carcellar led the Bombers with 20 points, grabbed 15 rebounds and added 5 blocks while Romel Trespeses almost had a triple double with 18 points, 14 rebounds and 9 assists to lead the balanced Bombers. It did not help when Hunkz's rotation, already shortened by Juan Jose Dodero's injury, lost another player when Alex Lao-ang, the team's starting point guard, fouled out after playing only 26 minutes.

The Bombers are set to play against the Big 8 champions Eggnoggs on January 4, 2011 at the Hidden Arena II.

And that was evident after their tuned up game againts sonolenga (101-97),a division III team of portugal last night.A very exciting game where it goes down who wanted the game more than the other.

The Sonics attack was led by Lech Samelko who posted 23 pts and 6 rebs.Ippolito Innocenzi also contributed 21pts,9 rebs. and 8 assits on the game.But the suprise of the night was the Sonics 12th pick of the draft,Ambrocio del Valle .Del Valle who posted promising numbers as a rookie got 14 pts and 14 rebs in that game.Fellow rookie Gabriel Marlon Elumbra, contributed for 7 pts,11 assts and 2 steals.

"I am very happy from what i saw in that game ,especially for the rookies but not yet contented because the team still lacks chemistry.But overall were much more better than last season." said Ray Christian coach of the Sonics.


The first game of the league will be agaist Talisay Canines,a semi finalist last season,the said game would be the barometer whether the Sonics can be a Championship contender or not.

Bombers edge Eggnoggs 92-88. Gives Greedy his second trophy

With Eggnoggs making a final run near the end of the 4th quarter, general manager Greedy was at the edge of his seat, fearing that they might need a decisive game 3. But when the buzzer sounded, he finally breath a sigh of relief. The Manila Bombers just won their first championship and Greedy's first since he was managing the Secret Warriors back in season 8.

Bombers acquire Daniel Corono

After winning the championship, Greedy immediately worked to improve the team by swapping Charlemagne Manila with Daniel Corono. The team wanted to keep Manila as he has the potential to become a perennial all star. However, he cannot improve much as he is buried in the bench with Romel Trespeses starting and Renan Daduya replacing him off the bench.

Romel Trespeses is the clear leader of the team last season. But with the Bombers promoting to Division III, he wouldn't stand a chance against the stronger big men. Daduya, once a formidable big man, is now just a shadow of himself. For season 15, his role is more of a mentor than a player. Thus, in getting Corono, the team has solved this problem.


Bombers select Eleno Montejo in season 14 draft

With the sixteenth pick in the draft, the team is not expecting much. However, when their second choice Montejo is available during their turn to pick, they wasted no time in choosing him. Also selected in the second and third round are Lin cousins Lin Kainan and Lin Yingyuan. As the owner wants to limit the roster to 15 players, the team had to cut Lin Yingyuan.

Competition has raised into a new level

Due to the recent campaign held by the tournament heads to promote Basketball in the country, Teams from all over the nation are piling up to become the next best thing in basketball sports. Aspiring players and managers alike are lining up for what will be the greatest era in Philippine sports.

"We were really excited to see so many different Filipinos from different parts of the globe wanting to be a part of this prestigious event. We never expected this to happen, and are looking forward for next season, and more seasons to come." League II Association Board (LIIAB) member and Team Polydozel President Katchafire Collie stated in a press conference.

The campaign, supported by BuzzerBeater Global LTD., released a year-long campaign to encourage people with interest with basketball to submit their intent to represent a lineup to be given a chance to play on a national scale.

Since then, applications went like crazy and several aspiring players went lining up in several participating domes, hoping to be part of one of the country's most attended tryouts in history.

"Yeah, it beats any school's tryout attendance here." says one source. "young players line up to try to test themselves if they are indeed worthy to be league material, and older guys trying out to be part of the personnel."

Indeed there are some who are making comebacks such as former players also taking part in managerial duties, or coaching. Even some are making their comeback as players.

"Being part in a lower league champion I know i have a great chance to be back in the court again." says one former player. "Basketball is my life and I'm happy that the league is doing everything to make every Filipino's dream come true. As we all know, Basketball is scripted in every Filipino's DNA."

"1100 more teams have been approved by the organization, and the number is growing rapidly as we speak. We really expect that the rapid growth of numbers may raise the competition level as all of these players, coaches, and management personnel dreams to walk down the grandest stage of all, the PPL."

"Not just in the PPL, but in the international standpoint as well." says League II and former PPL competitor, Polydozel coach Vic Nodally. "Former youth teams and minor tournament teams have the chance to participate in, now what would be, the biggest league in the country, and one of the biggest in the world. The future is bright for us. Every Filipino has a chance to play, and maybe the best of the best would have playing in other countries as an option."

There is no other league, only OUR League, and it's BB Philippines.

Manila Bombers Season 15 Off-season News Reel

Carlo Livoti leads Cabugao Ants over the Bombers

Carlo Livoti scored 37 points and hauled in 25 rebounds to lead the Ants with a 99-81 victory in the first round of the playoffs. Fabrice Chavanon, his main defender, grew frustrated as he watched each of the shot he contested go in the basket. Even double teaming or placing three defenders against him did not work. Daniel Corono had a good night with 28 points and 11 rebounds but the rest of the team went 17-54.

Renan Daduya to play one more year

At the twilight of his career, Daduya contemplated on retiring after the season when Greedy called and requested him to play at least one more season as their frontcourt was short and the team did not have the funds to acquire a new player. With this in mind, Daduya agreed. The 35 year old Daduya averaged 0.5 points and 0.2 rebounds while playing sparingly last season.

With the 11th pick in the Season 15 draft, the Manila Bombers select Isaac Pinga

The scouts of the team were congratulated as they believed that they had stole a player with a low pick. They knew they had no chance of getting their first choice, Leo Eugene Develles, who was selected first overall as he was clearly the best player in the draft. However, they believe that Isaac Pinga will match or even be better than Develles.
