Burger King traded some players with 2 teams under the San Miguel Corporation, Purefoods and Ginebra. The team gave Cyrus Baguio and Homer Se to get 2 future draft picks to be drafted in 2010. They also exchanged Celino Cruz with Aaron Aban of PF. Fans have a lot of things to say about this trade. Burger King fans protested even if the management can't hear them. Their stand on the trade? Why trade Baguio and Celino? Why get Aaron Aban? Well, I'd say, those questions are for Coach Yeng Guiao and BK's management to answer. We'll have to see what these players can do tomorrow. Nonetheless, I'd say that the trade was a complete surprise and was very shocking. Ginebra fans have expressed their happiness in the Baguio addition to their lineup.. Question is, what about Homer Se who has done "some damage" to their players in the 2008 Fiesta Conference Championship Series?

Hello, 2009 Motolite Fiesta Conference! :]
This also meant hello imports! Wee, so happy to see my favorite players again. :] First game was against the Burger King Titans and the Sta. Lucia Realtors in Dumaguete. I'm so freakingly scared of Anthony Johnson, Sta. Lucia's import. He's so good! Yeah, but weird enough, the Titans won even if their import wasn't that good to rely on. (sorry..) Well, I guess they used their combined powers; they meaning the locals. And, of course, they won because of the great strategies from their tactician, former RB coach, Coach Yeng Guiao. It felt so great seeing Chad Alonzo (former Giant) playing and looking hotter. ;)) Also felt nice seeing Cyrus Baguio (former RB star) scoring with double digits and seeing Beau Belga (also a former Giant) contribute for Burger King. So yeah, BK won. It was a close fight and a great one. I'm soooo looking forward to future games! :)

Guiao-less RB loses against Reyes-less SLR
With Coach Yeng Guiao in the U.S., looks like Red Bull is having a hard time. The team is now with a 3-5 win-loss card and under Gee Abanilla for the mean time.
In this game, the veterans of Sta. Lucia led the way. The team went back in the game after a 19-point third quarter deficit. Dennis Espino and Marlou Aquino combined for 11 points in the fourth quarter and Espino finished with 17. Paolo Mendoza, another veteran, finished with 14 points.
For Redbull, Gabby Espinas had a career-high-tying 20 points and 13 rebounds, Jeff Chan finished in double figures for the first time with 15 and Cyrus Baguio and Carlo Sharma had 13 and 10, respectively. But all of this faded in the latter part of the game which is quite disappointing since the team dominated at first.
The game ended with 83-80 in favor of SLR.
Highest scorers for each team:
- Sta. Lucia - Williams 17, Espino 16, Mendoza 14
- Red Bull 80 - Espinas 20, Chan 15, Baguio 13
