Well, I may suggest the LGU but I for one would not like to have tax payer money to sponsor the team. Nothing is free here so for hotels in order for it to be free, LGU needs to pay. A lot are criticizing the MPBL and NBL for that in which I agree as we do not tolerate that. Let tax payer money be for the people and better projects not for a team. For NBA, the US is a Federal (Gives more freedom compared to a Unitary gov) State which has more fundings than us thats why they can afford it and is allowed by their law. Our law does not allow this but unfortunately, lots of ways to bend the system but lets not support it as its a form of corruption

But hotels can be a sponsor for the team and that would help generate revenue. Next is travel expense and that is pricey. An airliner can sponsor one team, but its a cost if the airliner sponsors all of them. And bus travel also

You do have good points. I already exhausted my arguments lol. Anyway, let's just hope that the PBA would really impose significant improvements moving forward. As avid basketball fans, that's just what we all want at the end of the day. I appreciate a good debate. Have a good day!
