                    [Summary] => DALLAS — Marketing manager Carlo Singson isn’t the only Filipino working for the National Basketball Association (NBA).


Singson, a Kellogg graduate school of business graduate, is based in Hong Kong and operates out of NBA Asia, Ltd.

During the recent NBA Finals, I met two Filipinos who work for NBA Entertainment in New Jersey.

Robert Soria, 30, was born in Paterson, New Jersey, to Filipino parents who migrated to the US in 1970. His father Mario is an accountant from Iloilo and a University of San Agustin graduate. His mother Rosario is a nurse.

I stuck out my neck and predicted an East victory in this column and my section in the nba.com Blog Squad last week. I figured East coach Flip Saunders had the advantage of chemistry and athleticism — two key factors that determine the outcome of a contest that is typically up-and-down.

My third installment will be on former Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) imports playing in the NBA this season.
