ORACLE ARENA – Umubos ng katumbas na P15.6 milyon ang isang negosyante sa Canada na tinaguriang “Super Fan” ng Toronto para ipamigay noong Game 6.

Nagsimula ang negosyante na mag-engganyong manood noong taong 1995 ngunit dalawang tickets lamang ang kaya nya bilhin noon.

“Now I have 10 seats — I have six courtsides and four platinum seats and once a year I buy thousands of kids tickets to the game,” ani ni Nav Bhatia kay Star FM/Bombo Radyo NBA correspondent Ponciano Melo Jr.

Isang multi-millionaire si Bhatia sa Canada na may mga negosyo at mga charity works.

Kitang-kita umano sa Arena kung gaano kalapit ang naturang negosyante sa mga NBA superstars gaya nila Vince Carter, Kawhi Leonard at iba pang sikat na NBA players.

Kapansin-pansin din ang mga posters nito sa labas ng Scotiabank Arena noong Game 4.

Nang makasama ng Bombo Radyo correspondent si Bhatia sa loob ng Arena ay nasakihan dito kung gaano ito kalapit sa Raptors.

Samantala nagdiriwang pa rin ang Toronto Raptors sa unang NBA title nito at hinirang na MVP naman si Leonard sa kauna-unahang pagkakataon sa kasaysayan.

Giannis, Luka, Embiid, Wemby overlooked as Durant hypes Tatum

As the Boston Celtics won vs Phoenix (127 – 112) last March  15, 2024, NBA superstar Kevin Durant hyped Tatum as the one who will control the league for the next 10 or 12 years.

Despite the outstanding performance of Joel Hans Embiid Philadelphia 76ers, Doncic  Luka Mavericks, Giannis Sina Ugo Antetokounmpo Milwaukee Bucks, Victor Wembanyama Spurs and others, Durant still saw Celtic power forward Jayson Christophe Tatum as the best.

Durant said after the Wednesday practice that Tatum is consistent all year and assumed him as the legit candidate.

“Putting up a high number of points. Stats matter when it comes to MVP. His team is winning games, most importantly, by a landslide. The record factors into it. He’s had MVP-caliber seasons the last few years, too. So, it’s just a matter of your narrative at this point.” Durant remarked.
