The Dragons and the PBA

 
Author's note: Thank you for the continued support and exchanges on social media; while this blog has been inactive for some time, a lot of our friends here continue to show love and support. This blog has been an outlet of sorts, as we all need hobbies that pique our interest and passions. Unfortunately, with age (and a very relaxed/ poor diet), this writer can no longer play basketball at a very competitive rate, so here we are, typing away on a keyboard while showing love to those who play the game the right way.

The recently concluded 2022 PBA Commissioner's Cup offered quite a bold and innovative feature, this time presenting local fans with a guest team: the Bay Area Dragons. Formed in 2021 to represent 'Greater China,' the team was coached by American/ Australian tactician Brian Goorjian who is known for leading the Australian national team to a bronze medal finish in the 2020 Olympics. It featured a bevy of up-and-coming stars from East Asian countries complemented by American reinforcements, NBAers Myles Powell and Andrew Nicholson.
