[Title] => Red Bull, Alaska out to defy odds
[Summary] => If results of Sunday’s games would be any indication, then the PBA All-Filipino Cup quarterfinals could produce big reversals, keeping the race for the coveted crown wide open.
Suddenly, the four lower seeded teams have become more hopeful they can make it past the quarterfinals and get a shot at the title playoff as Mobiline and Ginebra stalled Shell and Purefoods, respectively, Sunday, thus forcing sudden-death in their matchups.

[Title] => Pop’s double-barrelled threat is week’s best
[Summary] => Three players have drawn praises from their coaches recently.
But only one truly stood out.
Pop Cola forward Rudy Hatfield, his string of double-doubles snapped just once so far in the Philippine Basketball Association All-Filipino Cup, was named Player of the Week by sports scribes for the span of March 26 to April 1.
And nobody was surprised when Hatfield won the citation unanimously, beating a pair of players who came up with coming-out games in the same week.

[Title] => Chargers turn back Phone Pals
[Summary] => With its woeful campaign last season behind it, Shell made a big start last night as the Turbo Chargers, riding high on the exploits of old mainstays, repulsed the Mobiline Phone Pals, 68-59, in the Philippine Basketball Association 2001 season at the Philsports Arena.
"We threw the ball away a lot of times because we’re still feeling our way. But if we go by the result of the game, there’s no question that we should be happy," said Shell coach Perry Ronquillo. "We won only nine games last year. Now, we’ve got one already."

[Title] => Aces struggle past Realtors
[Summary] => Alaska Milk, though obviously feeling its way around with an overhauled lineup, opened its All-Filipino Cup title-retention bid on a good note as it turned back Sta. Lucia Realty, 91-84, at the start of the 2001 PBA season last night at the Araneta Coliseum.
Old mainstays Don Allado and Rodney Santos came up with clutch baskets down the stretch as the Aces overcame the early ouster of new starting power forward Ali Peek and a tough stand by the Realtors to the delight of the predominantly Alaska crowd which watched the season’s opening game at the venue.

[Title] => Alaska releases Hawkins
[Summary] => Eight days to go before the opening of the PBA 2001 season and Alaska Milk continued to overhaul its lineup, releasing Bong Hawkins to Tanduay Rhum in exchange for a future draft pick.
The Uytengsu franchise let go of Hawkins after trading earlier two other ace players in Johnny Abarrientos and Poch Juinio to Pop Cola for Ali Peek and Jon Ordonio.
Alaska team manager Joaqui Trillo said they wanted to keep Hawkins in their lineup but decided to let him go because of the salary cap restrictions.

[Title] => Alaska deadline nears on P42-M Duremdes deal
[Summary] => Although Kenneth Duremdes is miles away from home, the player’s cash registry will ring to the amount of P42 million in a day or two with his old team Alaska Milk having to decide whether to match or not a mega-buck contract proposal offered by Mobiline to the top Alaska cager.
The whole Alaska team is also out of town. The Aces are supposedly on a holiday trip in Las Vegas but the team management found itself deep in work in dealing with Duremdes, who’s in Houston, following the offer from the Piltel franchise at the expiration of his old pact Monday.
