Marcio and Celino to Petron, Guevarra, Tugade and Rabeh to Powerade

The end result of the trade rumor: Marcio is now in Petron
My first post as a reminder: http://newsbitsfromevents.blogspot.com/2012/02/trade-proposal-powerades-super-rookie.html

After my countless blog posts on how Petron wanted to acquire Marcio Lassiter's services from Powerade Tigers, it has finally been approved today, April 20 by the Commissioner's Office in a trade where Powerade gave up Lassiter and Celino Cruz for Rey Guevarra, Lordy Tugade and Rabeh Al Hussaini of Petron Blaze Boosters.

Petron gets Marcio, the super rookie who catapulted Powerade to the Philippine Cup Finals this season. They also now have the experienced guard in Celino Cruz: a journeyman point guard who has seen action for Shell, Red Bull, Burger King, Purefoods, and Ginebra.

Powerade gets their wish in a big man in Rabeh Al Hussaini and proven shooters in Rey Guevarra and Lordy Tugade, three of them seeing limited minutes with the Boosters.

Hope that this trade goes well for both parties.
