THE battle for the PBA Governors Cup Best Player of the Conference honor remained a two-way fight between Gary David and Mark Caguioa.

David kept the top spot in the Statistical Points Standings (SPS) by the end of the semifinals with 33.00 SPS despite Powerade’s failure to advance past the eliminations, while a close second is Caguioa, the prolific Barangay Ginebra shooting guard with 29.33 SPS.




The Best Player of the Conference and Best Import awards will be handed out prior to Game Two of the season-ending Finals between B-Meg and Rain or Shine.


Criteria for determining the winners are 40 percent statistics, 30 percent media votes, 25 percent players votes, and five percent votes from the Commissioner’s Office.

Two key B-Meg players have been making a late run for the honor, with Mark Pingris shooting up to No. 3 with 27.69 SPS, while following him in fourth is two-time reigning MVP James Yap with 26.13 SPS.

Rain or Shine rookie Paul Lee is the only freshman to break into the race in fifth place with 26.08.

Marcus Blakely, the explosive Llamados import, is showing the way in the Best Import race with 50.07 SPS.

Rain or Shine’s Jamelle Cornley, likely to crowd Blakely for the honor, is way behind in fifth with 42.86 SPS.

Meralco’s Mario West occupies the second spot with 46.55 SPS, followed by Paul Harris of Talk `N Text (42.93) and Ginebra’s Cedric Bozeman (42.87).

Rounding out the Top 10 for the Best Player of the Conference race are Petron’s Arwind Santos, Asi Taulava of Meralco and Jay Washington also of Petron, all of whom have 26.0 SPS. The ninth and 10^th spots belong to Barako Bull’s Willie Miller (25.7) and Ranidel de Ocampo of Talk `N Text (25.36).

para sa akin si MC talaga... kahit nangunguna si gary david sa knya pagdating sa SP... ang kaibahan kasi nila... mas makikita mo un ginawa or performance ni mark sa mga game ngayon conference na tumatak sa isipan ng mga fans... katulad nun laban nila sa ROS, laban nila sa tnt, sa game nila nun petron nun jawo's retirement... eh si gary?? parang nakikita ko lang sknya un 3pt shots nya palge eh

bukas na yata to iaannounce. Ito nalang talaga ang tanging pag asa ni MC para makuha nya ang MVP kasi kung hindi baka si Gary or baka masilat pa sila ni Jems Yuck. Hay! Nakakakaba!

@jbbaylon
If I had one wish at this point, it is that GARY DAVID be recognized by the PBA community - players, media, fans - for his amazing season, a season that comes rarely in a player's lifetime. He served as the spark for the team that moved from unheralded to finals contender in the flagship conference, and continued into the second and third. The proof that his performance was so outstanding is the fact that he remains atop the leaderboard on statistical points despite the fact that his team failed to make the semi-finals in its last two outings. Call me biased (call me maybe hehe), but in my book it is very clear who the Most Outstanding Player of the 37th Season is - POWERADE'S GARY DAVID.

nangangampanya na si jb hahaha

OT
