What would you do if you're Manny Pangilinan

I was watching the Smart Gilas and the Smart All-Star team earlier. This has been a great experience for Philippine Basketball and the whole country.

The Smart All-Star team consists of the NBA alpha-dog, Kobe Bryant, the reigning MVP Derrick Rose, the scoring champion Kevin Durant and the premier point guard, Chris Paul. Also gracing the team was Derek Fisher, James Harden, Tyreke Evan, Javale McGee, and rookie Derrick Williams.

Saturday was against the PBA All-Star Selection, with the country's top guns, such as James Yap and Arwind Santos. Today was against the National Team, Smart Gilas. Both games were won by the Smart All-Stars.

This once in a lifetime offer was all made possible by, may be the richest businessman in the country, Manny V. Pangilinan. He even bought half of the Araneta Coliseum, which will now be named as the Smart Araneta Coliseum. Plus, imagine how much money he has to spend to make this event possible. Maybe being the head of the top companies in the country helps to make this almost impossible event happen. It was also rumored that MVP is buying the NBA team, Sacramento Kings, which will make him the first asian to own a NBA franchise.

So if you are Manny Pangilinan, what would you do?

Me, I'll invite Kobe Bryant to play one on one with me every Saturday for a catch up game or maybe have Sarah Geronimo sing as I eat dinner.
