Barako Bull center Don Allado turned to Twitter to express his frustrations about officiating in the PBA after his team lost to Powerade in a crucial game Tuesday night.
Here are Don’s controversial tweets:
I'm the guy that says what others can't. games are fixed. They control who is in & who is out. It's a disgrace to be in this league. — Don Allado (@alotofDON)
I am bitter about losing. Not to Powerade, but to . In my opinion, this leaguehas little credibility left. — Don Allado (@alotofDON)
I feel for management. They put in time, effort & resources to form a competitive team like this only to be wasted by
@ this has nothing to do with Powerade. They didnt make the non calls. Its PBA only. — Don Allado (@alotofDON)
In one of his tweets on the micro-blogging site, Allado alleged that “PBA games are fixed” and that the league “has little credibility left.”
Allado deleted his tweets against the league the following day.
Meanwhile, PBA commissioner Chito Salud reacted on Allado’s comments saying the player’s tweets were “way out of line.” Salud also said the Energy’s center could face severe punishment.
“He is certainly way out of line. He is indicting not just the game officials, but the entire organization and membership of the league, his co-players and team officials alike. This is a serious accusation, and I don’t intend to take it lightly,” Salud said on Wednesday.
According to sources, Salud had summoned Allado to his office.
