The Top 10 PBA Philippine Cup Semifinals Storylines

Aguilar kontra Pingris,
Ginebra vs San Mig Coffee
While we await the winner of Game 2 of the Barangay Ginebra San Miguel and San Mig Coffee Mixers match-up slated later today, here are a few of the "must watch/ interesting/ keep an eye out for" things we expect or have seen from the above mentioned pairing and the other one between the Rain or Shine Elastopainters and the Petron Blaze Boosters.

Forgive us for not making any updates the last few days (and during the quarterfinals) because of this writer's daughter's birth (7.3 lbs, born last January 26, 2014!). That being said, you can always check out our PBA Philippine Cup Semifinals (and Quarterfinals) Preview on SolarSportsDesk.ph where we are graciously and generously provided some bandwidth to try our very best to sound as analytical as possible (please bear in mind that we are very happy to be part of the contributors line-up, meaning, we have some leeway to throw in some written jabs here and there while you, the reader, have all creative freedom to call us names and what not).

The most entertaining allegation would be that this writer is a "San Mig Coffee fan."

Without further adieu, we bring to you the "Top 10 2014 PBA Philippine Cup Semifinals Storylines:"

10. Tim Cone is on track to be the PBA's Ric Flair
The winningest coach in all of Philippine professional basketball is further cementing his place in Philippine basketball history which would pretty much vindicate his transfer from the Alaska franchise over to powerhouse (literally, figuratively and financially) San Mig Coffee. It took Cone 22 years to win 13 titles with Alaska, now he is on track for his 3rd title since his controversial transfer in 2011. If Cone and his Mixers should win it all, well, "Whooooooooooooo 16x!!!"
