List of Scenarios for the 8 TEAMS that Will Advance to the NEXT ROUND PBA 2015

List of Scenarios for the 8 TEAMS that Will Advance to the NEXT ROUND PBA 2015

SCENARIO # 1
Assumes that Meralco and Ginebra will WIN their last game. That would:
(1)ROS, (2)TNT, (3) PF, (4)MER, (5)NLE, (6)GIN, (7)BAR, (8) GLO

Therefore:
(1)ROS vs (8)GLO
(2)TNT vs (7)BAR
(3)PF vs (6)GIN
(4)MER vs (5)NLE


SCENARIO # 2
Assumes that Meralco wins and Ginebra loses its last game against Alaska. Meralco will still be at #4. And Ginebra, Alaska, and Barako will be tied at 5-6 win-loss record. Since Barako both beaten Alaska and Ginebra, they will be at #6, Alaska will be automatic #7 and Ginebra will slide down to #8. WHY? Barako both beaten Alaska and Ginebra before. And a win will surely make Alaska pass Ginebra via quotient even if they win by just a single point. And that would be devastating for Ginebra because they will be at #8. That would be:
(1)ROS (2)TNT (3)PF (4)MER (5)NLEX (6)BAR (7)ALA (8)GIN

Therefore:
(1)ROS vs (8)GIN
(2)TNT vs (7)ALA
(3)PF vs (6)BAR
(4)MER vs (5)NLE



SCENARIO # 3
Assumes that Meralco loses and Ginebra wins. That will be a 3-way tie at 6-5 win-loss between Ginebra, Meralco, and NLEX. Since NLEX both beaten GIN and MER, they will be at #4. Meralco will be at #5 because they also beaten GIN. And Ginebra will be #6. Alaska will be eliminated. And GlobalPort will take the #8 spot while Barako will be #7. That would be:

(1)ROS (2)TNT (3)PF (4)NLE (5)MER (6)GIN (7)BAR (8)GLO

Therefore:
(1)ROS vs (8)GLO
(2)TNT vs (7)BAR
(3)PF vs (6)GIN
(4)NLE vs (5)MER



SCENARIO # 4
Assumes that both Meralco & Ginebra loses their last game. That would be:
(1)ROS (2)TNT (3)PF (4)NLE (5)MER (6)BAR (7)ALA (8)GIN

Therefore:
(1)ROS vs (8)GIN
(2)TNT vs (7)ALA
(3)PF vs (6)BAR
(4)NLE vs (5)MER



SERIES WILL BE:
(1) and (2) will have TWICE-TO-BEAT ADVANTAGE
(3)(4)(5)(6) will have a best of 3 series
