A former king Tamaraw at Far Eastern University , Pablo was the second overall pick in the 1993 PBA draft . He was drafted by Ginebra San Miguel but failed to reach an agreement with the Gins and was subsequently traded to Pepsi in exchange for center Manny Victorino . At Pepsi , he rejoined coach Derrick Pumaren , his former coach at Triple-V Foodmasters during his PBL days . After two seasons with the Mega Bottlers , Pablo would be involved in two trades in the 1995 PBA season , first with Alvin Teng , whom San Miguel dealt to Pepsi to acquire Pablo and towards the end of the 1995 PBA Governors ' Cup eliminations , he was traded by the Beermen to Formula Shell for Paul Alvarez . In 1998 , Pablo was one of the final cuts in coach Tim Cone 's Philippine Centennial Team . Vic made up for the non-inclusion to the Asian Games squad by having an outstanding season with Formula Shell . He earned his first PBA championship in a six-year career when Shell won the season-ending Governors Cup . He was traded to Mobiline Phone Pals for Mark Telan at the beginning of the new millennium . In 2003 , finally free from injuries , Pablo stepped up big and helped the Phone Pals win their first title in the All-Filipino Cup Championship
