There’s no security of tenure among imports in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). An import is only as good as in his last game.  He’s the convenient scapegoat when his team loses. If things aren’t working out, the import bears the brunt of the blame regardless of how the locals are performing.


That’s the way the cookie crumbles. The import’s the most vulnerable piece in the puzzle.
