PBA bans Allado

MANILA – Don Carlos Allado of the Barako Bull team in the Philippine Basketball Association was banned by the league for four months and fined heavily yesterday after alleging on Twitter that matches in the country's professional league are rigged.

Allado made the allegations in a series of posts on his microblog after Barako Bull lost to the Powerade team and were eliminated from the semifinals of the Philippine Basketball Association's Governor's Cup.

"I'm the guy that says what others can't. #PBA games are fixed. They control who is in & who is out. It's a disgrace to be in this league," the 1.98-metre (six foot six inch) centre tweeted on Tuesday.
