DR. CANLAS RULES OUT QUARTERFINALS RETURN FOR GINEBRA'S MARK CAGUIOA

MANILA - Fans of Barangay Ginebra San Miguel should pray that the Kings reach semis, because it is the time iconic leader Mark Caguioa can play again.

This is the assessment given to Solar Sports Desk by Caguioa’s doctor and well-known sports medicine physician Dr. Raul Canlas.

“I think Mark needs two more weeks, that’s the best scenario… a safe timeframe, he’ll be good come semis,” said Canlas of Caguioa’s 4-week old sprained left MCL.

“I just don’t want Mark to force his return, I want him to do steady sure recovery… para walang long-term (ill) effects,” added the famed doctor who takes care of the injuries of majority of PBA stars.

Canlas bared Caguioa’s injury is treated day-to-day as an MCL is an unpredictable injury, so he is not giving the Ginebra star the green light yet to play.

“He’s been religiously doing the strengthening and other tasks we give him, hintayin lang natin lumakas ulit yung ligament niya, di pweeng madaliin,” added Canlas.

Caguioa recently bared that he is already preparing for his return although he refused to divulge when.

The Kings will have to wait for Wednesday’s double-header to identify their seeding for the coming playoffs which will start on Friday.

Possible scenarios for Ginebra in the quarterfinals involve a matchup with either San Mig Coffee or Petron in a best-of-three affair, or the worst case scenario -- they challenge second-seed Rain or Shine in a twice to win disadvantage.

:( grabe mcl grade 1 lang yan pano kung napuruhan pala sya.. im still hoping makatulong yung brace na binili ni mark at makalaro sya kahit limited minutes, sayang kasi eh mahaba naman ang bakasyon nila pag nagkataon..

sayang di xia makakalaro sa QF ........ kaya maging consistent sina jj13,LA, macbac at kerby ......... para matulungan si vmack ...........

Sana talaga makayanan ng team ang makakalaban nila sa QF's para pagnakabalik na si MC for Semis, mas malaki na ang chance naten na makausad sa susunod na round

tagilid ang laban natin dito NSD lang mga kabs lets pray for immediate recovery ni idol, syang talaga kung hindi na injuerd c idol finals na tayo cgurado

Ouch.. lalo tayong pinapahirapan ng tadhana ah? Sana makalusot sa QF... sayang tong seasonna to para satin..

Sana talaga makaya ng ginebra yung makakalaban nila sa QF's. kelangan kumayos ng husto nila V-Mac & LA at sana naman mag step up na yung ibang locals lalong lalo na si Ellis na laging kasama sa starting unit.. at sana magpakita ulet ng bangis sila JJ & Kerby..

talagang kailangan mag-step up ng lahat, nakita natin yung game against alaska at tnt. although, close game ang alaska pero nakita naman nung final 5 minutes, pinosasan na nila si vmack. tapos lalo na nung tnt, may 7ft na ngang bantay eh halos triple team pa sya.. pero anyway, kahit gasgas na nsd..

Godbless Ginebra!!!

Never Say Die parin .................

Kelan ba malalaman kung sino ba talaga makakalaban ng ginebra sa QF's?

^

bukas pag nanalo meralco sure na ros na pero pag natalo meralco, either smc or petron.

Nasa Ros kasi ang susi kung gusto nila makalaban ang Ginebra or Merlaco with the same benefit.. kumbaga testing nila ngayon kung kaya nila ang Meralco..

^pero tingin ko, Ginebra yan, less MC & Billy Mams eh, llamadong llamado ang ROS sa laban dyan

baka piliin nga ng ROS ang ginebra sa QF .......... dahil less scoring threat at less bigman ang ginebra ............... sana malasin ang ROS kapag kalaban ang ginebra...........

ang laking bagay din ni billy sa depensa.. anyway, marami pang puwedeng mangyari... sana na lang mag-step up LAHAT tapos gumaling na si billy at mark.. maiksi lang kasi tong playoffs, after quarters, best of 5 lang ang semis at finals kaya sana magawan ng paraan ang mga injuries...

at sana mabigyan ng PT si Taha, i know nasa learning stage pa si Taha pero para mabuild up kagad yung confidence nung bata sana kahit 2 or 3 mins bigyan sha ni coach Al, pamalit lang kay V-Mack para naman di mashado masunog si V-mack, sunog na nga susunugin pa ni coach al

Against all odds nanaman ang Ginebra sana malagpasan nila to

Deserve din ni VMACK magpahinga, kinakapos kasi sya sa dulo kaya dapat pacing din sya..wag maxado pagurin ni Coach Al.

si taha kasi mala billy mamaril din ang takaw din sa foul hindi din ma control ang sarili na i foul ang kalaban tapos wala din low post moves...

Last year injured din.
Hay..sana ma activate ulit si Jayjay ko...!

tanggapin natin na hindi pa pwede maglaro si MC-47-MVP at Big Mama, kaya need magstep up mga natitirang players. tulad ni Hatfield, Raymundo, Ellis at LA. suporta din kay Baracael, Rob, at JJ..Go GIN KINGS!!! NSD!!!

time for LA to shine

ito ung mga laban na tlgang mapapakita ng team ang pgiging NSD nila
