Issues
In 2023,
As of the 2023–24 Commissioner's Cup, only Alaska and Rain or Shine are the teams not affiliated to the SMC or MVP groups to have won a title across the 34 conferences that were held since 2010. Since the 2016 Governors' Cup, those titles were only won by teams from those two groups.
In the PBA Board, the SMC and MVP groups have multiple votes in issues. Since 2014, the two groups have three votes each (one for each team). For basketball-related issues, the two groups only have two votes each. The six other independent teams also have their own voting power in the board.[8]
